think they are just the same group as the exits but different name.

love both sides too

operator is a killer.

believe the "shoeshine " side used to be well collected over in japan,

more so than the operator which maybe got overlooked.

not so now though.

Another Sundown - awesome awesome tune. £2 - £300??

Under The Streetlamp b/w You Got to Have Money - Easily £50 these days - my copies a bit worse for wear these days - one of those that were a fiver for donkeys years - then.... Great double sider. Yellow / Green / Light Green issues - any difference or just one of those things?

I Don't Want To Hear It - Dont have this one - Great tune tho. Whats the flip ?

Any more??

For your listening pleasure!!

Good tune this had mine since the late 70's it is Jimmy Conwell on Vocals and much the same line up as the Exits. I did discuss this with Jimmy when he was at the Cala Gran after he sang 'Shoeshine Boy' in his live set. Unfortunately I've slept since then so can't recall the differences in line up. biggrin.gif

Liking it

and looking for one

Look out for the James Conwell (Exits) Album (if you can get a decent copy), it's bloody awesome.

Shoeshine Boy, Sundown & Gotta have money on the lp along with other Exits numbers not on 45's

Just seen it's an original post from 2006 - Derrrrrrrrrr!!!

Cheers

I already have the exits 45

 

Pretty sure all the Gemini west coast releases are the same group.

Exits, New Group,Light Drivers and Multiple Choice.

Not a duff release among em.
