Lee Curtis (2)

Singer, musician from Liverpool Born: October 31, 1939 Died: October 12, 2023 Lee Curtis, originally Peter Flannery, began his career with The Demurs before emerging as the leader of the Merseybeat group Lee Curtis & The All-Stars. His music career took an abrupt turn at the end of 1967 when he suffered serious head injuries in a car accident while traveling to a gig in Germany. This incident led to his withdrawal from the active music scene. Post-music, Curtis worked in various roles, including as a croupier and in a Ford engine factory. Despite stepping back from the industry, he continued to perform occasionally, giving concerts in Liverpool and Germany well into the 2000s.
