Chalky Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 A big thank you to Larry Banks. I was hoping to do this story with James Bailey until he was moved to another home. However Larry came through with not only his story but some amazing photographs as you can see. There are more photos that I will post over time so that Larry can tell the story behind them. @larrybanks1941 1 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Louise Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Great Job Chalky (as always) with some fantastic photos too. It's always makes the job a hellva lot easier when the artists themselves have had the peace of mind to hang on to some of their own memorabilia. "I'll Never Stop Loving You" was one of Grapevine 2000's best sellers a complete sell out and it now appears to have become a furure rarity. I bet some of the people who turned their noses up at it when first released now wish they had opened their wallets quicker. Still recieving calls from punters and retailers alike but unfortunately the cupboard is now well and truely bare ! Great records always have their day and this has always been a great record Dave 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Gilly Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 The Servicemen for me are one hell of a group, love them to bits and its true we named our pet cat Hadley in recognition of Hadley Murells involvement with this group. Great write up on this group Chalky and so quick, love it. Its a real shame they couldn't of graced our stage over here at one of the week-enders. Thank-you guys for making my life that much better with your songs x Gilly and Nicola 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
