Re: ACCY POP GROUPS 1960s
Played o.k. last night at "Globe gig", nearly "fluffed" the solo on Shaking all Over when Sandra stood up in the middle of the song to "shake all over" which distracted me, told her over the mike as soon as we'd finished the song ,which everybody laughed at, it was that kind of night - good natured heckling all night- good fun! Trev.

Do you remember DR MARIGOLDS PRESCRIPTION playing up Accrington Con please. Trying to contact one of the members, who lives in London area. He did a lovely version of "PEOPLE GET READY"

Re: ACCY POP GROUPS 1960s
Hi Trev. Glad you had a good night. We played unplugged, think we were better than with all the gear!! I did call in at the globe at half seven on my way to Blackburn, thought you might be havin' a sound check and I could have a quick word but I see you'd already set up the gear. You'll have to let me know if you can get em to play again before Christmas.
Talk to ya soon. T.

Re: ACCY POP GROUPS 1960s
Hi All. When we were in Spain we went up to Benidorm and stayed on a Thursday night. Must be one of the only nights Wammy doesn't play! We found the bar, Rock and Roll house at the North end of Beni. at the Rinco.,Can't really go much further on unless you wanna go play in the Aqua park. There was a poster in the bar and he seems to be going under the name of Wambam rock and roll show. (I think that was it, but I'd had a few bevis!). So sorry Jim, didn't get to give him a hug for ya, I was hoping I might have brought a photo back for you all but not to be. Saw a couple of good bands though, three guys doing some heavy rock who were excellent and a couple of old guys (even older than me), who were obviously just enjoying themselves. After 4 weeks over there i was just settling in.....haven't warmed up since I got back. Tony

Hi Atarah,
Sorry, but I've never heard of Dr Marigolds Prescription, what year are we talking about roughly? I left Accy in 1969, if it was after that I wouldn't know them. Cheers, Jim.

Hi Dublomad,
That's a shame, but never mind. He sent me a copy of his new album about 2 months ago. As long as he's enjoying himself. Thinking of moving over there yourself are you? Sounds like you enjoyed it. Best wishes, Jim.

Although his Posters still up at Rock and Roll House i dont think he's playing there just at the moment, although things frequently change in Beni! He was still on at Heartbreak on the Levante Prom, and at The Western Saloon, next door to the Ambassador Hotel when i was over last month. I didn't get chance to talk with him, but he was on stage at Western Saloon when i was going past early one night, but i was on me way to meet a couple of pals so hadn't time to pop in!
Best Regards - Taggy
