Good Ol' Freda Page #2
I just was amazed
by everything I saw,
and I thought "That's it,
I'm going to go tomorrow. "
Well I think
it's put down that
like 294 times.
Out of that, I would say,
I probably saw them about 190 times.
Freda was definitely
a staple of The Cavern,
she was always there,
and she always
sat in the same seat.
I used to like the second arch
on the left hand side,
because it was
just that handy.
You could pop in and out the
band room all the time.
There was about two
rows in the front,
they would leave
their rollers in
until before
the lads would come onstage,
and then they'd
and doll
theirselves up and everything.
It was conversation all the time
with the audience.
Somebody came in, a different hairstyle,
they'd pick on them.
They'd go "Have you been
the hairdresser's?"
or "Who got you up this morning?"
But he answered them back.
They liked the razzmatazz
between you and them.
People used to
write down a number,
give it to them, and ask them
would they right play that number.
Now, if you gave it to John,
Paul always went over to John
and leaned over his shoulder
and read the request out.
I thought "Can
John read, or...?"
to be honest...
he'd look at
the crowd like that
as if he was going to kill
everyone in the crowd.
And then I
mentioned it to somebody
and they said "Oh, no, no,
John's as blind as a bat.
never wears his glasses,
so he can't see further
than his nose. "
I liked George singing Three Cool Cats,
I loved that one.
Or The Sheik of Araby, because
he used to do a little dance
and I liked him
doing the little dance.
He used to sort of kick his feet
along the stage.
A few times I rang Paul up,
because one of my
friends fancied him
and I wanted him
to sing for her.
We used to just dial Garston
and then the number 6922.
He'd say "Hello," and you'd go,
"Oh hi Paul, it's Freda.
It's Linda Shepherd's birthday
on such-and-such a day,
can you play Love of
the Loved for her?"
"Yeah, okay. "
I got to know them personally
through just talking to them,
going in the band room,
because when they came off-stage,
they used to either
sit in the band room,
talking to different people
who ever came in,
and then you would
just sit by them,
and you would just ask them
where they were playing,
or how come you
weren't here yesterday.
Paul was always nice
and always friendly,
and any time you'd ask Paul to
sing something, he would do it.
John... a man of many moods.
It depended on what side of the bed
he got out in in the morning.
