Did anyone see the letter In todays Acc Obs "The History of Rock", from Eddie Pearson about the Rock and Roll years in Accy, sure brought back a lot of memories for me and I'm sure for a lot of others on here who grew up in that era

Re: any one see
 

just read it, those were the days, was also interested in the 48 yrs old picture of the high school girls, knew quite a few of them.;)

Re: any one see
 

Can you put the article on here for me please Mr C.

Re: any one see
 

sorry Al,complete cretin wi that sort of thing, switching a computer on is my forte.:D maybe someone else will be kind enough.:enough:

Re: any one see
 

Stop being a lazy arse, and type it out!:D

It's a pity the letters page isn't on the Observer website, as usually it's the best bit.

Still, at least you're spared the bonny baby/pretty pussy/hot honey/glasses wearer of the year photographs.

There's always a positive side.:D

Re: any one see

Re: any one see
 

sadly a couple of em are no longer with us.:( was great lasses as well.

Re: any one see
 

Yeh, shame not on their website, and haven't got a scanner Alan ..sure someone on here has one who gets the Observer. Did start to type it for you, but hit the wrong button (must cut me nails) and went into the re-cycling bin or summat ..:D

He did mention John Taylor at Knowlmere Street .. know he did run dance classes, but I only remember Cliff.

Was supposed to be at the Rock 'n Roll evening myself tonight which Eddie Pearson runs, but events overtook me ..sorry Mez... :o

Re: any one see
 

Cliff was long before John Kate, Alan was the bouncer then,great bloke,always told us to behave goin in, but if we were ever in a ruck he always sided wi us:D Top Bloke. i have a scanner now,but aint a clue how to use it.

Re: any one see

Re: any one see
 

Strewth! Has the Observer changed that much since I left Accy? Someone get me a copy now! :D

Re: any one see
 

i had a word with eddie last night at his monthly rock & roll night up the popular wk,mens club & told him he has made it to a thread on accyweb, i told him it was in his favour,

it was packed out last night & the singer was fantastic RIKI ARRON ( reminded me of frankie avlon) had my little heart thumping for awhile ......especially when he jumped off stage WOW well back to my teens ........ya missed a good night kate :mosher:

Re: any one see
 

Oh yes mez them were the days only it wern't mi heart that were throbing back then:D:D:D:D

Re: any one see
 

there is a nother rock an roll night comeing up on the 19th march brooks club.
that will be a good night as well

Re: any one see
 

Thanks for trying, Katex, tried Observer site but its not on there, unless Im missing something. Jaysay's comment is something Mr C would say, had to laugh, I think Tony Abbot used to spin the discs up the Arcs when I went up there. Would like to see that photo.

Re: any one see
 

What Heading would it be under in the Observer. This is driving me nuts.

Re: any one see
 

This is not very good but i scanned this from the paper hope it helps:D

Re: any one see
 

Here is the Rock and roll item if you can make it out

Re: any one see
 

Cheers for that, Mick, very interesting. I would dispute that Bill Haley's "Shake Rattle & Roll" was the birth of rock 'n' roll, but I suppose that's another argument all together.

Re: any one see
 

My aunt left the High School that year, though I doubt she'd be on the photograph, as she was probably somewhere having a fag.:D

Re: any one see
 

Just like her nephew, then.

Re: any one see
 

I didn't smoke at school.

It wasn't until I was living in London that I started to smoke, mainly to mask the stench of those jellied eels cockney types.

Re: any one see
 

You should have tried taking a bath or a shower.

Re: any one see
 

cheers fer that mick Al will be very suited.;)

Re: any one see
 

Thanks Mick, Yes very suited. Incidently when typing this they are playing Beverly Guitar Wattkins, Im Gonna Rock Some More, ABC's Album of the Week, Good tast hey.
