What begins as a romantic love story surprises the reader as it turns into a fast moving adventure. Set against the backdrop of postwar Britain, Reg and Dorothy Calvert struggle to survive. With little money and no home, they live for 3 years in an old bus in an apple orchard. When Reg first hears Bill Haley's Rock Around the Clock, he has a dream. To bring Rock 'n' Roll to England. A multi-layered biographical history, as it follows not only their lives but that of many early rock stars  and musicians. (1961, only 10 years after living in an old bus, they move to Clifton Hall - School of Rock) Second edition has been completely rewritten, revised and enlarged. £10. including p&p.   Paperback 222 pages, 50+ photographs. Also available as a Kindle eBook


CLIFTON HALL - School of Rock by S.K. Moore Kindle eBook Clifton Hall is situated just outside Rugby.  In 1961 Reg and Dorothy Calvert moved here with their daughters, plus singers and musicians who toured the country's dancehalls.  There was loud music day and night as the musicians rehearsed, a pet monkey, mad firework parties, much fun and laughter, but also heartbreak. Soon, the press were calling it a 'School' of rock. This was an extraordinary time.
