Around 1987 Ian and Will Menter lead the forming of the Bristol Musicians Coop. I end as treasurer and it happens with Bob Helson, Ron Caines, Linda Martin, Roger Skerman, Will Guy and many others active in running it. The Co-op thrives for several years aided by a grant from South West Jazz putting on something like 150 gigs and putting on three festivals in 1979,80 and 81, “Unpopular Music”, “Co-operative Music” and “And Music” with musicians from the UK & Europe.  We release Lps and Cassettes on our Label Zyzzle Records. It would be great to document the Coop at  length… need help !
