I saw Otis at Vanderbilt University on the Saturday night before the plane crash and the white fraternity boys carried him off the stage on their shoulders... the power of R&B music in 'deep south' Nashville Tennessee; a lot of it was recorded in Memphis...I was staying with my grandparents at the time and they reckoned that popular nigra music was better than that hillbilly stuff down at the Ryman Auditorium on a Saturday night ('The Grand Ole Opry')...and Nashville ain't far from hillbilly country...just ask Dolly Parton... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morrobay Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Notice Wolfman Jack at start, he had station in Mexico as one of the "border blasters"in 60's. In the U.S. radio stations are limited to 50,000 whats. The X border blaster stations were at 250,000 watts and upset many stations stateside.Played mostly late 50,s to early 60,s (essentially the same music) Edited May 28, 2018 by morrobay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( the only decent thing to come out of Bradford, except for Kiki Dee and me of course ! ) Smokie would never be that big in the 70's if it wasnt for Mike Chapman who wrote all their hits. Pre-Smokie they failed until Chapman , who also wrote the biggest hits for The Sweet and Suzi Quatro, decided to take them under his wings. But they know how to perform , that's for sure, and still going strong today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, they were good looking lads and the singer had a distinctive voice so maybe they could have done alright. “Lying in the arms of Alice” was a huge success for them, but here’s one of their not so great successes ( for obvious reasons !! ) The video didn’t help much [emoji23] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannork Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Just that picture of terraced houses brings me out in a cold sweat, and the picture was taken on a sunny day! I've tried describing the windy, desolate and grimy streets of Hull back in the 60s and early 70s to my missus but she can't relly grasp it. Like the cold. Mick Ronson came from Hull. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
