Crocket Robert Magee wrote a article  “Oceans Apart” for Irish showbands.net
Well I was the manager of the “Oceans” and what he said is true
I went on to manage several bands in the 60`s The Scholars, The Dukes,
The Raydots & Flair all Belfast based, all featured Lead Vocalist
Tom E King three featured Wee Harry Whitley on lead guitar.
from 1962 until 1971. Then I went to England and started another band
Junior & the Jesters and played the Irish Circuit until 1978 when I retired from the scene.

Many Thanks and Kindest Regards.
