Petedillon Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 Were they on the same time as Sam and Dave? remember the saxaphone player got a huge ovation,was it not the one that became the last night? meaning it turned into an all-dayer Steve Oscar Toney junior was brilliant Oscar was amazing that night..I saw him again at the Hardrock not long after, on the same bill as Al Greene & Margie Joseph. No dont think Sam & Dave were on the same bill as Detroit Emeralds were they?

Peter99 Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 Not read the entire thread so apologies if it's already been covered. I saw Eddie Holman at Hinckley Leisure Centre - that boy can sing! Apparently he does voluntary work with poor people in Philly. Peter 1

grantdyche Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I've mentioned this on here before,Years ago I may add, The Ritz all dayer Manchester circa 76 ish Not the greatest of gigs but certainly one of the funniest, Barbara Pennington,Evelyn Thomas & L J Johnson, Anyway if you remember the old Ritz,The stage was revolving,The centre bit turned,So they could get another group on quicker etc. Anyway time for L J Johnson to do Your Magic Put A Spell On Me, He sits on his stool and starts to play away,Only his stool was on the revolving bit,But his piano was on the static part of the stage, Half way through the stage starts to turn,He moves but the piano stays still,One of those you had to be there moments,Piss yerself funny at the time !! 1
