Yet more brilliant pics mate, it's a pleasure looking through them.
I remember the flyover being built on Breeze Hill/Rice Lane very well, we moved to Speke from Walton and I used to get the 81D on Breeze Hill back to Speke on a Satdee, saw it built pillar by pillar until I graduated to lager and ciggies and my sister took over the pony express message service in the '60's.

It's mad isn't mate looking back at Breeze Hill/Queens Drive and Rice Lane, hasn't changed one bit. Still looks exactly the same, mad stuff.

Yea.. have to agree with Stuey there Odd Job , it's a pleasure to look through them..
I wanted to go on that march for Erics through town but me ma wouldn't let me, so I snook down town with my mate on the 12a and watched from sidelines..mad eh. I was probably up by City Pets when they went past as that was taken..Great stuff !!

It's as if it's frozen in time mate except for the flyover, watched that go up pillar by pillar waiting for the 81D on Breeze Hill, we moved to Speke from Maria Rd. in Walton and I used to go on messages every week when I was a kid.
The High St. in Woolton hasn't changed a bit, that pic has got to be over a hundred years old.
Can't make any faces out in the Cavern queue, that looks like the regular queue, they used to have a queue for visitors - coach parties and suchlike on the other side of the door and there was F***ing murder when they used to get in first, we used to make token noises after queue jumping 'cos we always knew someone on the door or near the front, everyone who'd been going there for a while carried on like that.
Happy days.

They've just levelled Gateacre  Comp - suppose we'll get more housing association dwellings going up there.

Here's a pic of The Claremont Pub from about 72...Had my first bevy in there and played my first gig n there too.. Had some great nights in there !!..
Also as kids when we got soaked playing footy in the rain we used to dry out in the massive tumble dryers in the laundrette on the corner on the right...

Whats goin on here I wonder?...New Kemlyn Stand bein built?..

Kensington 1969.

The Austin Rover Car showroom / Garage , B&K Motors down on the right is where I did a 6 month Y.O.P scheme in the workshop in 1981..£25 a week..sorted !!
Great set of lads to work with..salt of the earth..Joe Fagans son Steve worked there as a mechanic during that time..

This shop along with Liverpool Football Club made me into who I am today...end of..

I wonder if anyone has got a picture of Billy Liddell putting the ball in the net in a F.A.Cup  match at Anfield in the 1950's only for the louse ridden ref to blow his whistle for full time. The match was against Man City and there was a big photo in the Echo showing the ball in the net and the ref with the whistle in his gob. If anyone has a picture  I would love to see it.cheers

Thanks for that 6stringer but I am sure the picture I am talking about shows Billy Liddell on the right wing after he has hit the ball and it is on its way into the net and the lousebound b***ard of a ref with the whistle in his horrible gob.It was rumoured afterwards that the ref had a train to catch and so did not want to play extra time.The goal that wasn't by the way was in the Anfield Road end.

The only thing I can think of Billy is that you contact those nice people at The Echo and see if they have anything in their archives.. It's worth an email if anything mate.. or you could contact www.billyliddell.com
The goal pictured looks like it's at The Anny road end (?) could be wrong though.. Looks like it's snowing as well or is that just the print quality I wonder?..

Fantastic pic 6stringer ( as are all the others).
Always went into probe records and into extremes as a kid,
The old fly posters I remember well.notice one for afraid of mice
And dead or alive ( I'm sure Pete burns worked in probe for a while)?.
The empty shop to the far left opened up as back tracks if I remember correctly.

I was at that match and the goal was definitely at the Anfield Road end, It's that long ago the only thing that sticks in my memory is the sadness at the disallowed goal. I used to have the Echo picture but somewhere along the way it has gone missing.

Yep he sure did Jimsouse67.
He served me in there a few times and used to mumble under his breath or make some camp comment about the obscure Reggae or Blues album I was buying trying to convince me his Nightmares in Wax offering was better... but I suppose he was part of the whole Probe records experience and without him the place wouldn't have been the same..He's a right weirdo now
You're right again mate, Back Tracks was next door, to the right.. another cool place to root through the wooden beer crates and find a rare 7' or two.. then along came the cassette tape !! ha ha.
The Lincoln's Inn Rock Bar up the side street to the left on the same block...Newky Brown nights a plenty !!

Back in the day.
