Wes McGhee

Wes McGhee (born 26 October 1948) is a British folk/blues/country musician from Leicestershire. He began playing guitar with a local band when he was only 13 years old, graduated to playing in German rock clubs by the age of 18 and secured his first major record deal - with a division of Pye Records - three years later. His determination to marry psychedelic rock with country music did not endear him to the company, however, and he spent seven frustrating years locked into a contract while no records were being released.

==Links to Peel==
Wes McGhee formed Grizelda in the late 60's with Paul Witherspoon, but the group were more of a touring band and never released any records. However, they became a backing band to Homesick James, when he did a session for Peel's programme in 1970. In 1976, Wes did a solo session for Peel's programme, when again the singer was not releasing any records. It was only until 1978, that Wes McGhee started releasing records.
