Top Katz 

Line-up

  • Colin Gee - drums/lead vocals
  • Norman Jackson - bass/vocals
  • Roger Wheeler - lead/harmony vocals
  • Eddie Cooper - rhythm/vocals  

We were managed by the late Les Gee & agent Jeff Bates. We played around the Fylde Coast & all of the Manchester area and Cumbria , similar to the Spiders / Vicars etc, appearing with many top name groups of the day such as the Searchers/ Amen Corner/ Cream etc.

We disbanded around late 1968 & all moved on to other scenes.

Roger & Norman formed a cabaret duo, I went solo as a vocal guitarist , & Colin went into business in the Manchester area.

Stuart (from Bruce & the Spiders) & I around 1976 got together & formed a cabaret duo called The SIGNS DUO , & enjoyed 3 years together , again working the whole of the North West Club Scene , with great success.

In the 6th form with Colin Gee - Salford Grammar. He travelled over from St Annes on Mondays returning Fridays in his sports car or the group's van with Top Cat on the side. His dad had a caff in Strangeways.
