One of Britain’s most successful 
pop groups from the 1960s, Herman’s Hermits, is dropping into Cromer during its 50th anniversary tour.

From the beginnings in Manchester in April 1964, the band has chalked up more than 23 top twenty single records, 10 hit albums, three major movies and countless television shows and concert tours all over the world.

To date they have total record sales topping 75 million.

And on Sunday they are appearing at the Pier Pavilion.

The Hermits dominated the mid 60s music scene along with the The Beatles and Rolling Stones.

Even after the departure in 1971 of frontman Peter Noone to pursue a solo career, the group never stopped.

Original member Barry “The Bean” Whitwam has guided the group from strength to strength into one of the hardest-working bands in the business.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
