Private Jack - Liverpool singer - ex-Bingo Brothers

[SpiderPig]

Does anyone know if Private Jack is still playing the pubs around Liverpool?

He used to do a great version of " Brother Can You Spare A Dime " and " Barnacle Bill the Sailor ", as well as loads of his own songs.

We went looking around Liverpool to find Private Jack - we found Phil Jones but apparently Private Jack very rarely sings now - I was informed that the last time was St Patricks Day in the Irish Bar on Matthew Street

Cheers pxe

Nice to know there's at least one other fan knocking around.

I've just remembered that a friend of a friend used to be his guitarist accompaniment. Next time I see him I'll ask whether he's still in contact.

Where did you used to see him? I used to see him in a bar off County Road, Walton. I think it was called The Old Bill - it used to be a police station. I've also got a tape somewhere of him playing the pub by Liverpool's ground.

Thanks again

Hi Cabbie69 - I hope you're subscribed to this thread- I can't find my Private Jack tape - but my friend has lent me a Bingo Brothers tape. If I can copy it, I can send you a copy. Leave an email address and we can discuss it.
