I'd many a great Friday night jiving to Dave Glover's jazz bank at the the Belfast Tek hop in the late '50s.
Wasn't Gloria Huniford his lead singer?

My late grandad, Sam Smith (aka Snicker) played double bass with the Dave Glover showband in the late 40's and early 50's. After he left he played with the Billy White Trio on a saturday evening show on TV called Take time for Music. Does anyone out there possibly have a photo of either of these bands. i would dearly love a copy if you do.

I work with Muriel Day... well her surname isn't actually Day. She is such a lovely person, but i've only known her a short while. I've seen the pictures of her back in her hay-day and she is so pretty, and her voice is amazing!

Anyone remember Fred Deeney who played piano for Dave Glover? He is my Father-in Law and has recently passed away. I am looking for some photos of him in the band.

Congratultions to Muriel Day on being included on the official CD and DVD to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Eurovision Song Contest ("Congratulations - 50 Years of the ESC Vol. 1 1956-1980"). She was the first woman to represent Ireland when she sang "The Wages of Love" in Madrid in 1969.

I also remember Muriel from Canada. I was just a kid, but she lived with us for a while in Canada. I still have an old Muriel Day & The Night Squad '45, called "Radancer". I'd love to say hi to her.

The Patrician Hall in Carrickmore Co. Tyrone was said to be one of the most popular venues in the North for showbands and other performers. If you have any stories or info on this subject I would love to hear from you.

Anyone remember a singer by the name of Marlene Fox who sang with Dave Glover for a while? She was my cousin and I'm trying to get a photograph of when she was with his band. Anyone help?

My father Stan Smyth played with the Dave Glover band. He often recollects those times. He would love to hear from anyone who remembers his time in the band.

This is a memory tripper. Back in the late 60.s I had the privilige to work with Dave Glover when he presided over a Talent show at the Astor Ballroom in Belfast. I won that talent show and was offered a job to sing with the band. But was unable to do that since I was still in school. I did follow that path later. I went on to perform on "Opportunity Knocks" with a group based in England called the Idaho Showband. Then later we were invited to perform on the "Stuart Henry Show"up in Newcastle. The band members were all from Northern Ireland. I ended up in USA and toured several times along with Hal Roach, Tony Kenny,and other well known talented Irish celebreties. So "thank you" Dave .. Marie Frances (Branagh).. cousin of Kenneths.. just kidding but you never know. Now living in USA but still travelling back and forth to Belfast.
