Old Photos Of Where You Live


….Rupert Lane Park;

Rupert Lane has a fascinating history. In 1908 the Liverpool Mercury newspaper carried a report that stated "Thanks to the munificence of the David Lewis Trustees, Rupert Lane Barracks is being acquired from the government for use of the property for open air enjoyment".
The plot of green that remains in the barracks square is almost the sole remnants of former Everton remembered by so many old inhabitants.

….sadly, only one left now but an amazing catalogue of tunes.
 

I agree - they had formed a group in Australia, heard about the Beatles manager & the rest is history - they wrote a few good songs along the way - health wise even their cousin who had a couple of hits dies young in his solo career....

….didn’t know about a cousin, their younger brother, Andy Gibb died aged just 30.

They’ve left a magnificent back catalogue, many great songs performed by others.
