Played Princess Theatre Club, Domino Club and many other clubs/pubs in the Manchester area during the early to mid '60s.

Founding members were Allan Wilson, Ken Hobin, Pete Bond.

Later changed their name to The Hammers, and then had some chart success as the Magic Lanterns. Band members at that time were Allan Wilson, Jimmy Bilsbury, Ian Moncur, Pete Shoesmith and later, Bev Beveridge. The line-up changed over the next few years.

Great site - thanks for doing a great job.
