After a break of fifteen years which saw Terry marry Geraldine and have three children, Terry decided to form another band so in late 1979 Terry Franks And Reflections were born. The new band spent 18 months rehearsing before performing at Social Clubs and Private Functions from 1981 onwards. In 1993, the band decided to revert back to the Avalons name and continued to perform almost every weekend until their retirement in October 2006.
