Hiya all
I came by this Accrington Web,by accident ..I so the programme on tv about Ginger Baker. which made me remmember when he was with the Graham Bond Organization and they played at the cavern .
And I was the DJ ! the first DJ! Happy days, I got the job because I had a big record collection and the owner Tom (from the liverpool area) asked if I would like to bring along some records ,I used 2 decks and a table .The stage was really small and the back changing room was even smaller.I lived and worked in blackburn back then,(now in southport) other bands I rememmber are the steampacket with long john baldry and Rod stewart ( they had a real bustup that night)..
I rememmber Jimmy lightbown .he was always the best dressed guy and wore a long leather coat.shirt and tie..I think he lost a leg in some crash.The last time I saw him was a t a trade show , hes business was selling plastic flowers.and he still looked the part.!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOO
some time later (cant remmember ) I started Dj-ing at a club called the Disco, it was over a shoe shop on possibly abbey street, the owner was a guy called ? and his girl friend Gale .now she has a jewellery shop in blackburn, I know this because I have a jewellry shop.

Sooooooooooo
Some time later,I opened a shop called Disc and Tape exchange ,at Number 1 little blackburn road
The rest is history.

Thanks for reading this,
I hope it helps ..
