I was browsing through your site and came across a couple of pictures of the Rialto Accordian Band featuring Charlie Johnson. Charlie was a good friend of my dad's and was in a band that played regularly at the Queens Hotel in Keighley. I have enclosed a picture that i hope u will put on your site they were known at the Queens as the Back Wall Band they are from right to left Percy Littlewood [Drums], Charlie Johnson [Piano] and my dad Harry Wallbank [Accordian]. Sadly they have all passed away now my dad only recently and I thought it woud be a fitting tribute to include them on your site. My dad was well known in Keighley as a musician he played Accordian, Piano and Organ, He played in and around Keighley in his time in pubs and clubs his longest been at the Queens Hotel , Rishworth Club Crossflats, The Goat Steeton, Bocking Club Crossroads and The Welcome and Gardners Arms in Keighley and many others. Anyway keep up the good work a very good site hope you will post this many thanks
David Wallbank

Hi David, nice to see like minded folk discussing musical topics. All too often this sort of info gets lost with the passage of time. franka
