Wasn't that great ! It must have been filmed just as the Beeching cuts were in progress.
The programme certainly gave me a huge respect for Sister Rosetta Tharpe. A real pro !
It was filmed at a Manchester suburban station, Chorlton, on the then Manchester to Sheffield line. Yes, Beeching put paid to the line but - good news! - the old line is currently being renovated as part of Manchester's overground Metro system and I will be able to travel from West Didsbury station now being built at the bottom of my street via Chorlton to the city centre. But to turn to more important things - I saw the blues package at the Free Trade Hall the evening before the television show was recorded at Chorlton. I also saw Sister Rosetta touring with the Humphrey Lyttelton band at the end of the fifties IIRC.
