About Me:

Born in Halifax 1948. Lived in Queensbury half way between Halifax and Bradford. Village was full of rockers my cousin Terry Ross and I were the only mods.

Top 5 tunes at the moment:

Listening to The Mersybeats, the Zombies, Undertakers, Mojo's, Manfred Mann, Spencer Davis Group. and any other 60's music I can find. Have just discovered Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings coolest thing since the sixties.

Vespa, Lambretta or other?
