C Stuart Cook 2022 Obit: Harold Neild - Cross Keys, Uppermill (8) Harold Neild - Cross Keys, Uppermill 05 Feb 22

Just got back from the funeral of Harold Neild. Joyous occasion according to Harold’s specific instructions. Apart from his technical, political and other achievements, one of them was his contribution in organising folk clubs in the Tameside area.He started the Cross Keys club in Uppermill that then ran continuously for over 40 years until Corvid intervened. (It may rise Phoenix like with the forthcoming change of Landlords.)

The Cross Keys club has been a valued live music venue to countless musicians as they started their careers and as they reached being known as a performer worldwide.

In addition to a recording of Harold himself, there was even a live performance by Oldham’s very own, premier boy band The Hometowners.
