Alan started early on to mock about with his drummer brother Derek, with whom he formed his first group The Ambassadors in 1965; as a trio with their cousin Neil Porteous (Some sources spell it as it is pronounced: 'Potias'), who committed suicide in 1989.
Alan worked briefly as a plumber - which he still is by trade - before quitting to focus full-time on the band, which by now had a different line-up, including singer Gordon 'Nobby' Clark, as well as a different name: The Saxons.
Alan bugged local bandleader and potatoe merchant Thomas 'Tam' Paton into managing The Saxons circa 1967, by constantly hanging around and pestering him at the Palais de Danse ballroom, where Paton then earned his living as a bandleader in residence.
