Fergus has a long working career with Melanie, as he was also part of the Spice Girls live band, and now acts as her musical director as well as playing drums/percussion. His work outside the world of Spice/Melanie is considerable, though often unnoticed, as his long friendship with William Orbit has resulted in much work coming his way. Note also his work with Mike Oldfield, then check out Claire's info page again :-) Also note his work with Hank Marvin this year - anyone remember Melanie's appearance on Question of Pop, and who one of her teammates was? Then, whilst checking out who else was in the Duran Duran MTV Unplugged band, you notice the name Andy Gangadeen - who he also worked with for the Spice Girls. The music world sometimes feels like a very small place...
Fergus was responsible for the first Liverpool cancellation after his sudden illness on the morning of the concert. But I can't hold that against him, because he's also responsible for the stunning dance remix of Feel The Sun.
Unbelievable as it may seem, Fergus and Melanie finally went their separate ways in 2004, thus ending a long parnership and leaving Paul as the sole remaining link to Melanie's Spice Girls past.
