Welcome to another posting of a series of gig listings for 1960s bands. None of these lists is exhaustive and my idea is to add to them in the comments section below over time. They are here for future researchers to draw on. I have also added a few interesting bits of information and will add images in time.
I’d like to encourage band members to get in touch to share memories, or for anyone to send corrections/clarifications to my email: Warchive@aol.com
Equally important, if you attended any of the gigs below or played in the support band, please do leave your memories below in the comments section for future historians to use. If you know of any missing gigs, please add them too, if possible, with the sources.
Stu James (real name: Stuart Slater) (lead vocals)
Terry O’Toole (piano)
Adrian Wilkinson (lead guitar)
Keith Karlson (real name: Keith Alcock) (bass)
Jon “Bob” Conrad (drums)
Formed as The Nomads in early 1962 by lead guitarist Roy Woods and bass player Keith Karlson, the group briefly included future Easybeats drummer Snowy Fleet before he emigrated to Australia; his place taken by Jon Conrad.
The Nomads were subsequently joined by singer/pianist Stu James and rhythm guitarist Adrian Wilkinson (who moved to lead when Woods departed) that September.
Terry O’Toole joined on piano (with James focusing on singing) in August 1963 and the band became The Mojos.
That September, Nicky Crouch replaced Adrian Wilkinson. This formation was responsible for recording the band’s three UK charting singles, including top 10 hit, “Everything’s Alright”.
