Express and Star, January 26, 1972.

Big Dave {Dave Moore] was so called because he was very tall and his name was Dave. The Soul Brothers were literally brothers.

This line-up DJ'd at a host of venues in Wolverhampton in the early 70s playing a mix of pop stuff and Soul. You were as likely to hear Slade's latest as you were to hear something like 'Helpless'. The Catacombs had a much more consistent cutting edge playlist, so I was surprised to come across this advert indicating their appearence there.

The reference to Cav Regulars refers to the Cavendish Suite which was part of the Victoria Hotel complex. In the late eighties Pep ran monthly soul nights there which were very well attended.
