Another Glossop band you could list was Three Speed Walking Stick. Cant remember the names of the members, but I do remember them appearing on Opportunity Knocks. Perhaps someone out there remembers them.

They certainly did.  I remember their drummer saying they were given that name by the producers - they thought it was a cool name.  It wasn't, not even in 1969!

I remember this band from the late 60's when I was at school. They played a gig in St. Helens at West Park Grammar, I suppose I must've been about 15 at the time.I was very taken with the singer, Beverly Pattison Moss and we kept in touch for quite a while. He lived on Sheffield Road I think, and had a brother called Ashley who wasn't in the band.

The name of the band had nothing to do with Opp. Knocks, they were called that already; when I saw them it was months before the TV thing. On the TV they wore girls dresses; I remember Bev telling me about their shopping trip.Don't know what happened to them; I know Bev did the club circuit for a while, he was at The Garrick on the Wirral I think, and I remember he did a stint in Izmir, Turkey not long after, but I don't know if it was the same band.
