On October 29th 1966, the Knees Club recruited Mike Quinn as member number 366 and this was the first of three singles he issued. The others came out after the demise of Radio London, in 1969. Although he never worked aboard the Galaxy, Mike was a Radio London DJ who was employed by Radlon Sales. Mike joined the Knees Club when hosting the Radio London Club afternoon at London's Marquee Club. There were simply not enough ship-based DJs available each week on shore leave to cover the numerous Big L events, promotions and discotheques. He also had a stint hosting 'A Whole Scene Going' - BBC television's answer to 'Ready Steady Go!' We have not heard from Mike for some time, but he is believed to be continuing his DJ work in the Reading area.

If you bought this Big L climber and managed not to ruin it
on your auto-change record player it could be worth around £50! The single
never made it into the Fab Forty, but apparently found fame later on the Northern
Soul circuit.
