Born November 29th, 1944 in Colchester, Essex, England. In groups "The Pink Fairies", "Tomorrow", "The Pretty Things" and "Aquarian Age" in the 1960s. In 1970, Twink recorded Think Pink - a milestone in British psychedelia, with the production work of friend Mick Farren, and the active participation of musicians like Paul Rudolph, Steve Peregrin Took (T. Rex) and others, and created a collection of songs, instrumental tracks and poetry that is no less than stunning. For many, a "fundamental" release for fans of the psychedelic genre and the Pink Fairies, that reflects the genius of Twink.
Also in 1972 in the very brief super group "Stars" with Syd Barrett on guitar, Twink on drums, and Jack Monck on bass. In 2006, Alder converted to Islam and changed his name to Mohammed Abdullah, though he still records as Twink. He recorded his most recent studio album with Moths & Locusts And Heavy Friends entitled Think Pink IV: Return To Deep Space in 2019.
