@truck655 They're local union musicians he met an hour before the performance. Give 'em a break for putting a show together on short notice you putz. Oy? Oy yourself!
@Lafforte As I stated on other posts from this concert, Mike had just arrived from the UK to this US concert and performed without the benefit of working with these backup musicians before. I enjoyed the performance.
It's not that bad... Apparently Mike had only just stepped off a plane when he was asked to cover for Wayne Fontana (who was deported) and he had never seen these guys who were backing him, before, and had no time for any rehearsals so I think he did an OK job!
@rich88b The reason for Wayne not giving a thumbprint could be because of his 2007 charge of arson. He set fire to a car with a bailiff inside it. They probably would have deported him anyway! lol But Mike does a great job here. Seen him with his Searchers back in about 1995. Great show!
a great effort..but for live original sound John McNally,s SEARCHERS are better, but hey..good effort!

Very nice.
I had the pleasure of working with Mike
in Copenhagen in 1992.
What a gentleman.
The real title is"When You Walk In The Room" (not to be negative,just so
die hard Searchers fans get confused)
A big hit in 1964.

That guitar sounds well cool and is better than the Spencer James synthesier guitar!
