A staple of British tv was imported shows from America. Circus Boy, Champion the Wonder Horse and so on. Usually had a strong theme song. Both Susan and myself watched this.

This is a replica of an 1829 Stephenson's Rocket built for the 1923 film "Our Hospitality."

You can watch the full movie here:

• Buster Keaton - Our Hospitality 1923 ... The locomotive also appeared in "The Iron Mule" (1925)

• The Iron Mule (1925) Al St. John After that movie, nobody knows where the replica locomotive went.

Boom Boom Dr. Feelgood 1975

We used to cover this version. This album was so different than anything else around at the time. Mono for example.

She Does it Right Dr. Feelgood

１９７５、ＴＨＥ　ＧＥＯＲＤＩＥ　ＳＣＥＮＥ（ＴＹＮＥ　ＴＥＥＳ）

Dr. Feelgood Down By the Jetty 1975

50 years old. Very influential in Frome I can confirm.

The 5678s - I'm Blue

Kill Bill Volume 1 (2003)

The 5678s doing "Woohoo" at Purr, Moles Club, Bath, on 15th Aug 2004

This was a great gig. All ages so our son 14 was able to go as it was all ages matinee. His mate James came too. This was at the height of the 5678s fame (Kill Bill (2003) and a tv ad). There was a massive queue and some of our friends didn't get in. Purr was a great club we used to go quite a bit - good bands and djs. Red bought a 5678s t shirt 'Girls Kick Ass' and they certainly did.
