Fifty five years ago today

[StuartD]

It's 55 years ago today that Hank and Bruce first played with Cliff at Hanley on the Kalin Twins Tour!!

...and contrary to his thoughts in late 1960 (see Heinz's post nearby), Cliff isn't sweeping the streets yet.

And nice to know that the Victoria Hall in Hanley is still going strong today!

[David Martin]

Indeed it is... Remember rocking the place with our version of You Really Got Me a few years later... We started our band inspired by them...

[Fenderman]

Was Jet and Tony not in the band yet?

No mate.

Jet was playing Bass on the tour with the Most Brothers and sat in with Cliff on some occasions. Terry Smart was on drums and Ian Samwell on bass.

In recent years Hank played the Victoria Hall on one of his solo tours and more recently Jet with Marty Wilde!

Mickie Most, one half of that act, was to enjoy somewhat more success as a producer in subsequent years!
