One of Tich's earliest bands was Kimla Taz, who he played with during the late 1960s. Although the band never gained any mainstream success, they were popular in South Wales and in 1969 played at the Croeso '69 Blues Festival at Abergavenny, alongside the likes of Fleetwood Mac and Jethro Tull.[3] Tich found fame in the 1970s, when as part of Geraint Jarman a'r Cynganeddwyr, he recorded the Welsh national anthem on the electric guitar. The Jimi Hendrix inspired version, which first appeared on Jarman's 1978 album also called Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau,[4] became synonymous with Tich and has appeared on compilation albums of Welsh artists. In 2006, an eight track recording of the Welsh national anthem was 'discovered' in London.[4] At the time it was alleged that this was a lost version by Hendrix, though others claimed that it was a rendition by Tich.[5] When approached, ex-band member Gerarint Jarman dismissed both claims, stating that 'It's definitely not Tich because his style was more like Hendrix's than the actual tape'.[5] It was later discovered that the version was a hoax, perpetrated by record producer Martin Davies and ex-guitarist of The Vibrators, John Ellis.[6] In 1989, Tich formed the Superclarkes with Burke Shelley of Welsh band Budgie. Burke played guitar and Peter Morgan played bass in the Superclarkes. The band lasted until 1993 when Morgan moved to the USA. In the 1990s Tich also played alongside Welsh folk singer Siân James, joining her on a tour of Japan in 1998. DeathIn 2005, Tich was staying in a house in Canton in Cardiff. A fire broke out, after an unattended candle lit by the owner accidentally set clothes alight.[7] Tich became trapped in the attic and was overcome by thick smoke and poisonous gases. An inquest into the fire in 2006 recorded a verdict of accidental death.[7] A memorial concert was held for Tich at the Coal Exchange in Cardiff, and featured Welsh acts such as Man and Racing Cars.[6] Notes1. ^{{cite book |last=Davies |first=John |author2=Jenkins, Nigel |title=The Welsh Academy Encyclopaedia of Wales |year=2008 |publisher=University of Wales Press|page=364 |location=Cardiff |isbn=978-0-7083-1953-6}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Gwilym, Tich}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.gtj.org.uk/index.php?id=5182&L=0&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=103 |title=The first known recording of Hen Wlad fy Nhadau|accessdate=22 July 2012|publisher=gtj.org.uk}} 3. ^Croeso Festival 1969 ukrockfestivals.com 4. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/general_music_news/lost_jimi_hendrix_song_found.html | title='Lost' Jimi Hendrix Song Found | work=ultimate-guitar.com | author= | date=1 April 2007 | accessdate=13 June 2010}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web | url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/6234341.stm | title=Did Hendrix record Welsh anthem? | work=BBC | author= | date=5 January 2007 | accessdate=13 June 2010}} 6. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/southeast/halloffame/showbiz/titch_gwilym.shtml | title=Tich Gwilym: Acclaimed Welsh rock guitarist | work=BBC Wales | author= | accessdate=13 June 2010}} 7. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/south_east/5102910.stm | title=Rock guitarist 'trapped' in fire | work=BBC Wales | author= | date=21 June 2006 | accessdate=13 June 2010}} 6 : 1951 births|2005 deaths|Welsh guitarists|People from Rhondda|Deaths by smoke inhalation|20th-century guitarists |
