Hi Folks.
Whilst we are on the oldies!!
What about Geraldo. I would love a copy of.
"Hello again were on the radio again" His signature tune!
I think one of the most descriptive tunes for a band ever.
Any one got it??? Please
When Allan left Billy Cotton’s band it was in a cloud of mystery
I am sure he was sacked by the BBC, and Billy Cotton did not support him!!
Later he had a pub in London. I was down there for a Rugby League Cup Final.
(My other passion being a Wigan lad) I made a point of going to see him.
I thought he was a much underrated singer. His style for the songs he sang was
Excellent.
“It.s just the band you prefer, yes sir” Dah Dah Da Dah. I think only this side of
the pond will know what I am on about!!
Sincerely.
Joe.

Hi Joe , Allan Breeze , later moved to a lovely pub just outside Norwich in a town called Bungay . It was a great music pub and Allan used to sing there .

I've done a few gigs at the pub in my time and had some great times !!!

They never seemed to both much about closing time.

I once played until 1.30 in the morning , closing time should have been 11pm !!

Believe me it was one hell of a night .

I of course remember the Billy Cotton Shows on T.V featuring Allan Breeze , Mrs Mills , and Russ Conway ....

Salad Days .....it was a long time ago .thanks for reminding me .

Regards ...........Giovanni
