Wicked

I bought one of these a couple of years ago, looks a more expensive watch than £400+. I wear mine quite often (wearing it now actually).

Very sad news indeed, I've known Ritchie for years and had quite a few good records off him. I think it was Ritchie and Bob Foster that got me into real ale back in the late 70's.

yeah just as I remember it. Queen's Hall old tram shed.

Yeah I was there for that one, one of the best acts I've seen.

That pic must be 80's, I was thrown out of the '73 gig. Didn't actually do any thing I was just standing in the wrong place at the wrong time and ended up on my back on the pier with my jacket ripped. I did see him a few months later at Leeds Queens Hall. I'm not a Major Lance fan to be honest.

I was at the Major Lance night on Colwyn Bay pier but got thrown out by the bouncers before he came on stage.

I'm sure I went to this one with some of the Llandudno crowd I remember Soul Sam was on when we got there. I don't remember it being very good and I'm sure we only stayed a couple of hours.

Betty for me too, just love her voice.

Colwyn Bay pier, sometime mid to late 80's I think we counted less than 20 in. Probably the coldest night of the winter, no heating on inside I stuck it until about 2o'clock and went home.

Billy's version is a classic, no doubt about it, but I think I'd rather listen to Jerry's version these days.

I remember a seeing a guy in Wigan with a pair of baggies made from beer towels. And you think you didn't look cool.

Yes I went there not a bad nighter as far as I can remember.

My son bought me the Memphis '68 and the Harlem '69 for my birthday a couple of weeks ago, I've just started the Memphis '68, all very good so far.

Linda Jones and Whatnauts all day long. One of her best I would say.

Could be Pat Swallow or something like that, there was a bit of tension between Llandudno and Rhyl (skinhead days) so we didn't go there.
