Franklin D and The Senators (Bolton) 

Line-up

  • John Buck - rhythm guitar
  • ?  - vocals
  • Alan Pearce - drums
  • Dave Nightingale - bass
  • Dave Allen - lead guitar

 

Before the Heebie Jeebies, they were Franklin D and the Senators, managed by a Geoff Turner, I think it was, a bookie from Farnworth.

I played rhythm guitar, Dave Allen lead, Dave Nightingale bass, Alan Pierce drums, can't remember the singer's name, played a lot at the Blue Lagoon in Bolton.

My parents had a Bedford van and used to drive us around in the early days.

John Buck - 18/5/13

I think our vocalist was Tony Haslam from Farnworth he had a fabulous voice and good looks I remember playing a gig at the old Wigan Empress dance hall and we did the Elvis number "one night with you" and lots of girls were climbing onto the stage-quite scary but extremely ego boosting!!!
