Autographs of Gaye Advert

Gaye Black (born 25 August 1956), known professionally as Gaye Advert, is an English punk rock musician, best known for being the bassist in The Adverts in the late 1970s. She was one of the first female rock stars of the punk rock movement, whom The Virgin Encyclopedia of 70s Music called the "first female punk star." She was "one of punk's first female icons". Dave Thompson wrote that her "photogenic" looks, "panda-eye make-up and omnipresent leather jacket defined the face of female punkdom until well into the next decade."
Gaye Black was born on 25 August 1956, in Bideford, a small coastal town in North Devon. She started playing bass in her room to pass the time, chosen as it was her favourite instrument, and was taught by future bandmate T.V Smith.
Advert had done three years at art college and was reading about punk in the music papers when she decided in 1976 to go and see for herself. After she finished college, qualifying in graphic design, Advert and Smith moved to London due to a lack of jobs and other opportunities in Devon. The two later recruited guitarist Howard Pickup who worked at a rehearsal studio. After trying to find a drummer for a while, they met Laurie Driver, who had never played drums before, but offered to join the band. Advert later married Smith.
