Pretty sure it was Bob Garner. https://www.discogs.com/artist/717846-Bob-Garner?page=3 Has some dance stuff around the period I mentioned
There were quite a lot of people went through their ranks, as can be seen here.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Creation_(band) Always preferred Kenny Pickett as singer, though Garner had a better mod image.Eddie Philips, the lead guitarist, was very influential, as were the band. I can remember some lads in local bands at the time more influenced by Philips than better known guitarists.
That was my thought as he branched out andcwas more into that stuff. Garner was with the Merseybeats for a while, temporarily replacing Billy Kinsley before Johhny Gustaffson joined them.
One thing that this inclement weather has brought to mind is the often used reference to the windchill factor, like it's 0C but feels like -5 or whatever. Back in the late 1950's early 1960's we had a couple of bad winters but I don't recall anything about a windchill factor, if it was 32F or less then it was freezing, and that was it.
Don’t get drawn in Leon. Bumchin would do himself more good by just saying he hates PW. That’s the crux if it. He was more popular than Moz in the 80s & it hurts old Bummers. The fact PW is still more popular & Moz has turned into a bit of a right wing, racist hypocrite whilst PW has maintained a level of influence & song writing variations that old racist Moz could only dream of hurts him more. Bummers feels Moz’s pain for him. The fact is to actually believe all PW’s stuff sounds the same you’d have had to listen to it all. Bummer’s hasn’t, so his opinion on how it sounds is unsubstantiated ignorance. If he thinks PW’s a **** then fair play. He can even pretend Mozza’s happy about it. Bummers must be 50 odd but I think he secretly wishes he was younger so he acts like a child to convince & placate his ego.
Ha. To be fair, I gave up circa Heavy Soul. So, apart from the odds song I hear… I gave up with Morrissey around a similar time – lost interest totally. I see him as an irrelevance these days, although he seems to hold some concerning views. BCC posted his Twitter up a while back - deffo younger than the big Hawaii 5-0. Early 40s I’d suggest.
My 10 yr old Miele washer stopped working this morning - truth I hadn't thought of trying it on the car .....
2,500 fans of TWS at Boro for a televised game in lousy weather. As many as seem to have travelled across Hull to watch FC tonight looking at the pictures on TV.
This time it was the outlet pipe that takes the water underneath the boiler. Next door was both things you mention. It was that solid I'd have Had to boil kettle and climb on to the extension roof a fair few times
Just been for a walk around Marina. Pretty high tide with water coming over the top. Not seen it that high very often
That's because in the 50's we were little more than savages and heathens. The Human race has since become civilised and sophisticated.
Brecon Beacons 1990 (somewhere near Llangattick escarpment) and even Castro would have had to put an extra layer on. The weather was that bad we couldn’t put our bivvies up (due to the wind) and basically slept on the ground in piss wet through doss bags in driving sleet and subzero conditions. That was the cosy bit, doing a 2 hour stag with just a poncho to protect you was rather testing, as I recall. Two lads got frost bite. Character building stuff.
Somebody should tell this guy in Dublin that the Winter Olympics are now over and 'freestyle diving' is more of a Summer Olympics event.
