Athy Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Hmmmm....lead singer appears to be wearing glasses. From the haircuts and the fairly weensy speakers/ amplifiers, mid-1960s. But no I can't. Do you know the answer? I'll take a guess at The Zombies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boginspro Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 White coat and big white guitar, I think that may be The Rocking Drumbeats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boginspro Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I found a picture of The Rocking Drumbeats, I think this was actually taken at The Locarno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athy Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 It looks as if Boginspro is correct. I must admit that I have never heard of this group, and I can't find anything about them on the internet. Did they, or any of them, find fame?

I can't say what happened to them, my rocking days are long gone. They played at many clubs round Sheffield, including I think The Black Cat, Embassy, Azena, Locarno and some working men's clubs. I think I saw them on the same bill as Frankenstein and The Monsters, possibly at Smithywood or Darnall Green club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
