From 1958 to the mid 1960s the Ipswich Gaumont (aka the Regent) played host to a wonderful array of stars, among them Buddy Holly and The Crickets, Little Richard, The Kinks, The Everly Brothers, Marty Wilde, Helen Shapiro, Dusty Springfield, Cliff Richard, The Byrds, The Rolling Stones and The Beatles. David Kindred photographed many of the stars for the local paper, catching them informally while they signed autographs or gave interviews. He captured not just the stars but the audiences and fans, with the hairstyles and clothes of the time. The text by pop music expert and BBC broadcaster Stephen Foster is complemented by many of these rare photographs along with autographs, programmes, tickets and other memorabilia of the period.
