  • British musician Clive Metcalfe, a student from Southampton Art College and Chelsea School of Art in the early 1960s, played bass guitar as a member of the 1965 band The Abdabs (also known as The Screaming Abdabs) with Roger Waters, Rick Wright, Nick Mason, and Keith Noble & Juliette Gale . They were known as Sigma 6, The Tea Set, and The Meggadeaths as well as adopting the various Abdab monikers. They played rhythm & blues covers and some original material by the band's manager, Ken Chapman. The group was "available for clubs and parties", according to their calling card. In 1965 Noble, Gale, and Metcalfe left the group, with Metcalfe later explaining that he "and Keith didn't really gel with new guitarist Bob Klose. The line-up now settled around Klose, Syd Barrett, Waters and Wright, and Mason . Klose left after a short tenure, after parental pressure to concentrate on taking his exams. Barrett took over lead guitar and the bulk of the vocal & song writing duties. The remaining quartet went on, eventually becoming the Pink Floyd. After leaving the band, Metcalfe returned to his artistic roots as a goldsmith and a painter, also as a tutor at the Sir John Cass School of Art. He established his own gallery in 1999 with his wife, Christa Metcalfe-Hofmann, in Deal, Kent. Some of Metcalfe's works have been displayed in the Bridgeman Art Library and in exhibitions. (en)
