Wolverhampton Road
This was a supreme pub venue for many local bands.
You name them, they were all here. My band
Paint played here.
As a songwriter I went along one evening, to see the band Hobson’s Choice.
It was a great honour and thrill, that when I got out my car, I could hear them, live on stage, performing one of my songs.
The venue was very popular on ‘Grab-a-granny’ night, and what was ironic, most of the blokes were in their twenties!
Now it’s a Chinese restaraunt, so now we have ‘Grab-a-Chinese- Granny’ night.

I worked there many times as roadie for Ultra Sound in 1968 and 1969. We had regular bookings there on Sunday nights, at around 6 week intervals.
