Godzilla Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Also-definitely heard "The Kid" in the big room. Surprised me when I heard it. Richard Searling played The Kid in the main room on one occasion, when he'd just picked up a white demo copy. Judging by what I was doing and who I was hanging with at the time it will have probably been 1977 or early 78. East Rob on here may also remember. I don't think I missed a week during those years and I'm sure it was never played again. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Davetay Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Couple to clear up...... Lynne Randell(Mecca 1973 after the Torch had closed. Ian Levine). Never remember this at the Torch. Joanne Courcey(Twirl) a failed Wigan spin in 1974. I found this in a Soul Pack from a Belper, Derbys newsagents along with Paula Durante-Your Not My Kind. Happy New Year......

I can't remember. It was around the time I came back from LA and I was swimming in top drawer finds only to be outsmarted by the Javells, Gary Lewis etc. I then got into the Bobby Franklin, Snoopy Dean grooves and let some of my discoveries such as the Seven Souls slip away for pennies.

I seem to remember him playing green & white Four Tops, Gladys Knight etc bang in the middle of his Saturday spots. Happy New Year Paul. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Wiggyflat Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) I've got some great letters I got from Rob Bellars between him and Levine about who is playing what which I will dig out when I'm back in the UK. How about some forgotten underplayed sounds. Mickey Laney...Dave Evison spin....was he the original player of this.? Bobby Hebb..you want to change me....?? Linda Glass ...Before Love Beats Me Going? Natural Four... I thought You were mine.Who ?? and which came first ABC or Boola. Edited January 1, 2014 by wiggyflat Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
