SIXTIES SHOW Now booking on +44 161 374 5398 

A quote from Chris Black: "I'm over 21 years old and I'm still rockin'! They've billed me as the Legendary Chris Fender Black over here for some reason, it must be because I resemble an old Jaffa orange!!!"

Chris started in music as far back as 1955, aged 17 he got his first guitar out of a cupboard under the stairs in the house next door Ilford Essex. Chris's house was bombed and badly damaged during the war and the guitar was full of bits of metal and plaster which he had to shake out the sound hole. He put metal strings on it to get a nice twang but it bent the neck up like Robin Hood's bow and he couldn't hold the strings down past the 5th fret. Still it was good for skiffle and he soon learnt 3 chords and how to play LOUD in a day.

Another quote from Chris Black: "The best compliment I ever had for myself & Black Cat was given to me when I was resident rock-n-roll band in Lennon's Wine Bar, which was next to Stringfellows in London's West End. When we played the opening night Cynthia Lennon came up to me and gave me a big hug and a kiss and told me that it was the best rock-n-roll music she had heard since the BEATLES. Wow that was some tribute!!"

Chris has created a CD with 26 tracks from 1979 to 2004. The tracklisting is a walk down memory lane for me and many of the revival rockers from the late 70's and early 80's. With Black Cat classics like "Queen Of The Hop", "Type A Letter", "Race With The Devil", "Black Cat Boogie" and many more...

From these early beginnings a new show was  born - the CMON EVERYBODY SHOW. Now appearing at a venue near you at the weekends but if you are a large capacity venue owner with a love of the Sixties we can supply the show for midweek dates - tour dates permitting.
