This is my story of trying to 'make it' in showbusiness. It's about how I got my first guitar and how I was caught up in the Merseybeat phenomenon of the 1960s.I was desperate to make music my career and I managed to go from playing on the church youth clubs of Liverpool to the Cavern Club to Television and to The Albert Hall and The London Palladium. How I went on to work with Shirley Bassey, Morecambe and Wise, Benny Hill, Jimmy Tarbuck, Rolf Harris and many more and how I went on to perform for Prince Charles, The Queen and Prince Phillip. But it's also the story of the hard times in the Workingmen's Clubs and Miner's Clubs of the North East and South Wales the late late nights and the boring travelling.
