The JB7 is short for the John Barry Seven and in the Sixties they were an all important route to fame and fortune. Originally John Barry was the music master for both Oh Boy! and the Six-Five Special and was Mr Fixit in the centre of all the London session business as well as having the JB7 touring the country in his name. For Vic joining from The Bob Cort Skiffle Group, this was indeed the big time.
