2nd one could be called Keep on Dancin..3rd one is awsome..4th one is it a Sousan tailer made instro of Be Young Be Foolish Be happy

4th one is definitely a take on Be young Be foolish Be happy.  Don't remember it though. Definitely remember the 3rd one but no idea who or what.

Mark, Is Dancin on the same tape as the Honey Cone track from 78 that we finally sorted a few years back? If so I have just got some tapes from a friend who also taped that night and if I remember correctly my tape only had a short snippit, as he was taping next to me there is a good chance there will be more. If it is the same tape let me know and I'll check it out tomorrow.

Pete Robinson RIP put me on to it and we never could

Mark. Is Soul baby 3rd  track ? must be from 75 as that's when I started going and I obviously wouldn't have heard it any earlier 😂

are we still talking 1978 for that clip Mark, if so then yep my error as I thought he had moved on by then

Your memory is good - He was a weekly regular for Ken Cox long before 78...Years ago he joined in a discussion on here that drifted onto his move from Wigan to St Ives (in 76 I think).

 

While we are talking Wigan obscurities there was a girly group record about leaving school with the line " I picked up my pencils' in it being played around the same time as the instrumental in 78. Its been driving me mad trying to find out what it is for years. It was a bit 'pop', so I probably won't like it if I hear it again 😆

No, but a similar style record.....I think it was a Keith spin, so probably British again (?), a bit more poppy in the Karen Young, Ann dAndrea style ...Was the instrumental we are trying to track down one of his ?...I'm thinking Keith or Alan Rhodes ?

Although that albert george song is bloody obcure,i wonder how there can be another version of it?

So similar its got to be a different take or another version. Lets see if others agree
