Rockin Dave performs on tv show Fizz Bizz in Hong Kong in 1985

Dave was invited to open 'Joe Bananas', one of Hong Kong's top night clubs, in 1985. To commemorate the event, Dave's gold lamé drape jacket and blue suede shoes were placed on permanent display in a glass cabinet inside the club! While in Hong Kong, Dave obtained rave reviews by the Hong Kong public and a great deal of press coverage, for example, in the 'Hong Kong Standard' and 'TV Times', as well as appearing in a number of TV and radio shows, such as Edward Bean's popular 'Fizz Bizz'. Dave recalls that on the eve of the early morning recording of 'Fizz Bizz', where Dave played his then new track, You'd Better Listen to Me Now (Midnight CD705 Cadillacs & Moonlight), he took a taxi to the famous Hong Kong Peak. Unaware, that there would be no return transport after midnight, nor any means of contacting someone, Dave was deserted until the next morning, with nothing more than a six pack for company. He only made it back by walking all the way from the Peak to the filming location in Kowloon just in time for the recording of the TV show, shattered and complete with bloodshot eyes, having spent the entire night admiring the vastness of Hong Kong from the Peak!

This is EXACTLY like the English rock'n'roll featured on the BBC TV programme in the late 50s and early 60s called SIX FIVE SPEACIAL with Jim Dale, the John Barry Seven, Don Lang and Tommy Steele. (there is a CD called Six Five Special of this put out by deltaleisuregroup) Just Awful! A poor copy of the American rock'n'roll(Marty Wilde, Lonnie Donegan and the Vipers were the only good artists) The rest were rubbish. This is sing-a-long rock'n'roll.
