Alvin Stardust. Big in Rochdale apparently
I've just finished listening to a fascinating little documentary on Radio 4 about Rochdale street artist Walter Kershaw. In the 1970s, armed with his paint brushes, he'd set his scaffold up against a gable end and create giant murals; it made me wonder how the troubles might have played out if Kershaw had relocated his business across the Irish Sea.
