Tommy Cannon and Bobby Ball broke all records for capacity audiences at the London Palladium and the longest running show in Blackpool. They are still doing summer seasons and pantomime seasons each year as well as their gospel shows. In this book, they tell their own story. Tommy and Bobby met in 1964 when they were both very young and working in a factory. It was to be the start of a lifelong friendship and a double act that would soon turn professional. The famous duo chart their careers; the laughter and pain along the way; the changes that conversion to Christian faith brought for both of them. And it is all told in their honest, blunt, down-to-earth style.

  • Rock on Tommy review.

    Light but interesting read, especially if you have ever watched a ‘Turn’ in a Yorkshire Working Men’s Club. Just a couple of working class guys who eventually made it in a fickle industry. Enjoy the highs and - perhaps more importantly - the agonising lows that the pair experienced on the journey God had selected for them. Will most certainly be looking to book tickets to see them should they return post COVID-19. Thanks guys for the entertainment when I was but a child. Really did enjoy your years on LWT.
