    Apparently they did, though I went and don't remember them being on, I must still have been in New York for their set.

    This thread is like walking back to my youth, a gold mine of memories and information, thanks to all the contributers. Can I save this individual thread or are there copyright rules or something legalistic, and how would I do it anyway?

    Amazing.
    Once read an interview with McCartney where said he got the inspiration for 'Let em in' from a gig he'd done in Hull.

    It was also called Early Disco. It had no late license so it used to chuck out at midnight and re-open at 5 minutes past.

    Just happened to be spending one Friday night in the luxurious surroundings of Queens Gardens nick, early 70's You could get yourself locked up for the night in those days for wearing Doc Martens. About 2.00 am there was a lot of loud screaming, threats, banging and shouting, someone was getting a good kicking.
    When the jam sandwich and cold mug of tea breakfast arrived questions were asked about the previous nights kerfuffle. Copper said 'It was Ray Harvey'
    We were told later that Ray had been beaten up in his cell by a local wino who was twice Ray's age.
    And gullible as we were ( I wasn't alone in getting locked up) we believed the duty sergeants story.
    Ray Harvey had a huge reputation in Hull during my youth. He must have gained it somewhere.

    Being one of the only black lads in the city when racism was rife didn't help him.
