REVIEW of AUGUST 2019

The stone setting of Michael Black RIP

Dec with old pal Johnny Maxim...the owner of 'Encore' magazine. Did Dec get his hair from him or did Johnny get his hair from Dec?
Pictured at the stone setting of Michael Black RIP, the agent who originally gave The Bachelors virtually
all their bookings. At the Astor Club, the haunt of The Krays,
and The Richardsons. Then at all the American Bases, Mildenhall, Lakenheath,
The Columbia Club, and Douglas House. We owe a lot to Michael - may he Rest In Peace.
