Four Below Zero---E S P

The Brothers "Are You Ready For This" instrumental

 

Thats what I would have said. Very popular at Yate too.

This is one of the funniest threads I've seen in a long time. Is it 'dadah dadahah dadha dadha' or 'DEE, DEE, DEE, DEE, DEEDEE DEE DEE'?

its similar to 'the gig' raw soul...

Four Below Zero---E S P

Don Downing---Dreamworld

 

Don Downing played at the Mecca ?

 

What a great record (well it was at the time, have to dig it out & see how it sounds today) Used to play it at some new release soul & funk night I used to do ........ ahhhh when I was young

Dont know about the mecca mate before my time but it certainly got spins at Clifton Hall,Just thought the opening had a bit of DAH DAHS in it,but maybee it was WHOO WHOOS

One of these two -

 

Life - Cats Eyes

Major Symphony - Metal Heart

...wind up...and if it isn't it should be...

Dave Love - Baby Hard Times..... more of a dooh dooh do...... definitely played at the Mecca

Billy Woods - Let me make you happy? don't know where that was played

Third Time Around - Soon everything's gonna be alright

no..this was a thumpin' track..i just cant remember anything except the intro..a big tune for a short while...someone must know it...

Third Time Around - Soon everything's gonna be alright

right era..wrong tune...

  Flaming Emeralds - Have Some Everybody?

Only one I can think of that fits the dadah dadah description is World Column "So Is the Sun", but it doesn't fit the rest of the description so I doubt it's that.

 

Was a new release early 1976.

the intro had a beat similar to morse code..not the actual sound but the speed..
