Dear John,
Bobby Kevin is not in Brian Wood's 'The Song For Me', so can't be a 
"real" jazz drummer.

I suspect that he may have been a studio man, as his 1956-66 recording 
credits include his work with Don Harper  (Oz violinist), Dennis 
Wilson, Sid Phillips (including the early band with Kenny Ball), Alan 
Clare and George Chisholm.
Gerard Biederman will know.
Or perhaps Pat the Ladd.
Kind regards,
Bill.
