Sunn: Graham Plays Guitar, Ira plays Keyboard and Sings. I don’t know too much about “The Foxxe” Just bits and pieces from Graham over the years While working with him and Ira in the Stingrays.

What instrument did he play? I thought Ira had been the lead singer for quite some time, before I joined them. Graham & Ira are the only 2 I really remember.

JuJu, that must have been a later incarnation of the “Foxxe”, or a completely different band. What year was that? I played with them briefly in 1971.

J.J. Yes it was Ira (Red Hair). Graham is the one who recruited me to join the band.

In 1992, another Oklahoma Holly researcher, Kevin Terry, presented a plaque with an original 45 rpm record of �Maybe Baby� that was placed in the Officers Club at Tinker. But Pugh said a new club manager later ordered the plaque be removed. He said a worker at the club rescued the plaque from the trash and gave it to him for safe keeping.

�If they would like to have it back I would be happy to present it to them,� Pugh said.

THIS JUST IN! As seen on KFOR 6:00 PM news this evening. In a special ceremony Graham Pugh has returned the Buddy Holly Memorbelia Collection To the Tinker AFB Officers Club. The Placque, A Signed Picture, And another Gold record with a Hand written note from Norman Petty. History has been returned back where it happened.

The Female vocalist was probably Graham’s wife Ira. Who is the Absolute Best Female vocalist I have ever had the pleasure working with. Graham and Ira joined the Stingrays in I believe 89-90ish And Ira performed until she was diagnosed with Lupus in 2001. You may also recognise another of his achievements from KOMA a few years ago
“The Ballad of Barry Switzer” Barry Don’t take your guns to town. Which Graham penned and Mike Black sang.

What a coincidence. I played with The Foxxe for a brief period of time in 1971 in between other bands I played with. I was going through some personal problems & things didn’t quite work out & I formed another group. Graham sounds real familiar. Of course the drawing card was the female vocalist, who I thought was very good. I played in another band on the same bill with them in 1995 at a reunion concert at the Fairground Arena with a few notable bands from the 1960′s & 70′s. Small world.
