"It was in 1992 when Chris, Clive and Nev decided to rock the boat during Whitby Folk Week by playing rock & roll in the Elsinore Hotel, home to throngs of accordion players from noon to midnight. This one-off jam session is now an annual event during Folk Week, with the little pub bursting at the seams with temperatures and conditions that raise two fingers to health & safety regulations. In 1995, Candy Rell completed the line-up after she had guested on their debut album, and has been an essential part of the gang ever since." (from the sleeve notes to Four Pack)
The Legends now have 6 albums under their belt, including the career retrospective Four Pack, and continue to play classic pop and rock & roll mostly in Merseyside and North Yorkshire and, while they take care not to over expose themselves, their Whitby gig has become the premier fringe event of Folk Week.
