Tutanic 8 Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 This lady was a member of a band that had a Nottingham based guitarist in their midst. Any ideas? A Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tutanic 8 Posted May 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 I know it looks like the original head transplant gone wrong, but it was the best I could do at the time without getting all of the group involved. They had a hit in the middle sixties and then went on tour. They were away too long and could not promote their career in England and became part of the forgotten many. They were quite good as well, with this lady being unique at the time. A Quote Link to post Share on other sites

angi 3 Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Thought at first it was Connie Francis but not now. What does she do whistles? yodals? or perhaps plays the jews harp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tutanic 8 Posted May 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Don't think she has these hidden talents, her brother was also a mrmber of the same group. Her nickname was part of the groups name and their Grandmother lived on Peveril Street, near the back of the Koh-I-Nor resteraunt opposite John Beales hosiery factory. Iused to work there many moons ago that is how I became friends with them. A Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Caz 25 Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 So was it The Honeycombs? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tutanic 8 Posted May 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Certainly was, Honey played the drums and that was unusual in their day. As far as I can remember, they only had one real big hit with 'Have I The Right'. Well done Caz but a lot of the credit goes to Ilko, he sure knows his music.
