'The Bachelors' summer season in The Futurist Theatre, Scarborough, where we record our Irish Album, 'Under and Over' in the dressing rooms !
It's a tight squeeze, but it sounded great!
| Decca wanted an Irish Album from 'The Bachelors' but they were too busy to travel to London, so the studio came to them! Sitting in different dressing rooms for 'separation' and fitted with earphones they recorded the back tracks, then put the voices on in another dressing room. One track was performed live in the pub next door to the theatre! When other musicians were required they travelled to London to the Decca Studios in West Hampstead. |

'The Bachelors' opening Batley Variety Club, 26/3/'67.
| On 10th Dec. 1966 The Bachelors were asked to lay the Foundation Stone for Batley Variety Club in Yorkshire, England. Sixteen weeks later they opened it to the public. Many great artists followed in their footsteps including The Supremes, Louis Armstrong, Shirley Bassey and The Bee Gees. (One of them married a waitress from there!) |

The Bachelors sang two songs at the San Remo Song Festival, one being 'Proposta', the other being 'Per vedere quant'è grande il mondo'. Proposta came 3rd in the competition, but went on to be a No.1 record in Italy. Check it out on http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festival_di_Sanremo_1967 |
The club is still going strong, and although it was called 'The Frontier' for a time, it is now back to it's original name. The Foundation Stone is on the right of the front door as you enter.
