In the
1960s, during the golden era of pop, one band ruled supreme in East Anglia.
They were officially crowned top 60s band in one of the first ever 'Battle
of The Bands', being judged outright winners by Van Morrison. They appeared
with all of the chart topping bands of the time such as The Yardbirds,
Amen Corner, Merseybeats, Small Faces and Status Quo. Pirate Radio station “Radio London” chose the band to front their Radio Roadshow, long before Radio One or Two had been thought of. The pinnacle of their career came when they were booked to appear alongside Jimi Hendrix, Cream and Pink Floyd in what was probably the UK’s first real music festival. Now SOUNDS FORCE 5 are back, playing that unique brand of 60’s music that made them so popular the first time around. Lose yourself in this golden era, when you hear the group play unforgettable numbers made famous by such bands as The Rolling Stones, The Searchers, The Moody Blues and The Spencer Davies Group. |
