Birmingham is in The Midlands of England, not the North of England. The Nightriders lead guitarist that let Jeff play his guitar was "Big" Al Johnson, when Al left The Nightriders, he chose his replacement, a young guitarist named Roy Wood. The rest as they say is history.
Interesting interview with the music Genius Jeff Lynne.
