Normally painting in oils, Alan Tunbridge has also designed a great number of book dust-jacket illustrations, mainly in Scraperboard.
With Jones, Tunbridge ran the MOJO Folk club[1] at the King's Arms pub in Putney, South London in the early 1960s.
McTell was inspired by Tunbridge's lyrics of the evocative "National Seven" to tread the road which bears this name down to the south of France.
From 1999 to 2009 he focused on using his writing and design skills to help develop the Schizophrenia Research Institute in Australia, of which he was a founding Director.
[5] He retired from this role in 2009 to pursue his painting activities and to write his autobiography, Noose of Light, which was published in 2015.
