An Elmore James poster hung on the wall over the stairs to the cellar dance floor below, at the Twisted Wheel in Brazennose Street Manchester in 1964/5. It denoted the DJ's love of authentic American R 'n B. He was often confused with his cousin, the mournfully named Homesick James.
Roger Eagle, the DJ introduced an entire generation of Mancunians to Blues, R 'n B and Soul and much of Elmore James's material was played - It Hurts Me Too was played till the grooves wore out.
