Roy C...a class record and one that got into the charts back in '66, largely on the strength of club plays.

Last memory of Jimmy was going to a house up West End Ossy the morning after an all nighter at I think Ace of Spades Whalley,another guy with us was nicknamed Cronnie(possibly Cronshaw).We all wore Crombie coats...

Hi Susan,purple hearts and black bombers were around in those days and if I had taken them it would probably account for my not being able to recall the year-but I kept away from that scene so I am just going to guess at 1970 and say my memory is wearing cos I`m 59!

I think Jimmy was out of the mod scene by 1970, might have been out of Accy by then.

Thinking back Alan,1970,71,I was down the Lodestar for sure so it was probably late 60`s
