It is a fabulous place. I love the Museum of Science there. Does it still have the U-boat built into it?
Morning, Michael!

Al Atkins still wanted to explore the harder side of rock music , so he spent the rest of the year searching for a band of like mind.

The teenagers had formed a hard rock/progressive blues trio, but were in need of a singer to complete the lineup. Atkins was just what they were looking for. To hone their skills, they had been rehearsing for the past six months at Holy Joe's, an old Church of England school which had been converted into a rehearsal complex:
