Bob Miller & The Millermen

The instrumental group Bob Miller AS WELL AS THE Millermen appeared regularly on UK television and radio programmes within the 50s and early 60s. After getting noticed at many London gigs, including one on the Locarno Ballroom, Streatham, in London, on Coronation Time, 2 June 1953, Miller made an appearance on BBC Tv’s Drill down This. He eventually toured with current superstars such as for example Cliff Richard, Bobby Darin, the Four Freshmen and Shirley Bassey. Afterwards, on shows such as for example Drumbeat (for eight years), and the air series, Parade FROM THE Pops (‘a overview of the week’s well-known music, and prediction of strikes to arrive’), they supported lots of the UK’s best vocalists, and acquired their own highlighted spots.
