Posted

Just thinking what sounds would you play to spice up a set away from the norm.

My lad played TRAVELING MAN by JOE SIMON at Blackpool Tower in November on the Sunday,

When down a STORM. Lot of People didn't no it. Must be so many out there.

Thanks and MERRY XMAS. ROD

Wiggyflat, In the long run- Curtis Blandon is a super record that you just don't hear. 

John May , would love to look through your record boxes,some great tunes mentioned

Kev Farley, you put me on to that Raisin Sugar Cane great tune with bags of atmosphere and as for the O'JAYS, they didn't make a bad record.

so many Jems out there, no need to play the same old same. Rod
