Discovery, venues, first plays, DJs etc...

My lass doesn't recall it from WC and Ms at all, I first heard early 80s, my lass knows it well and used to ask for it at Keele 80s (probably our Keith) however she can't put a finger on how/where/when she knew it from. If it's not a fave please no hate mail.

Great tune, not heard it out for years, hence some may not know it - That's the case for a lot of those 'used to get played' tunes. As you say, surprising sometimes, but makes sense if a tune has been 'shelved' as they say.

All the best,

In October of 1964, the company decided to promote the "Walk On ..."  side.

Yes, I have an addition. Whoever edited the title of this topic: It's Bobbie Smith and not Bobby Smith.

Absolutely flying in the face of the whole thread but when I hooked up with the internet after not being anywhere for years and playing this I could have sworn I'd heard it at the early days of the Central, what seemed a very strong memory too. Perhaps just a flashback too far?
