Big Stars
A Memory of Croydon.
I saw Little Stevie Wonder at The Orchid when I was about 13 and he not much older, in the early 60s. Amazing young man in his red bolero type jacket and red trousers, playing his mouth organ. Also saw The Drifters there, great group, and still love their music. Is the place still there or is it something completely different these days? Mods were the rage then, the fellas in their parkers climbing on their Lambrettas, hair really short, the girls in their Mary Quant style dresses, also pretty short (are they making a come back?).
