Peter and Paul Talbot  —  showing Paul Talbot (left) and Peter Talbot (right)

Peter and Paul Talbot were a feature of the Christchurch music scene through from the mid 60s until the late 70s.  Originally with Peter Paul and The Pursuers, they went on to join Johnny Campbell and The Detours in 1966 to take up a residency at the newly opened Mecca Nitespot (formerly The Safari Lounge and The Scene).  Moving on from the demise of Johnny Campbell and The Detours, the brothers went on to join Just Us, and eventually Peter left to move to the North Island, leaving Paul with a completely new line-up of Just Us.
