Last one for a while I think, there should be enough there to keep everyone going for a while.

WIGAN CASINO FEB 12TH 1977

I recorded this one from the back of the room on the edge of the dancefloor with the recorder being left on the table, as always. Sound quality is a bit muffled to start but gets better as it goes along, stick with it because this is real prime-time Wigan and also there's some really good 'clapping' records like The Jewels and Al de Lory to enjoy. DJ's are Russ, Keith and Richard.

Cheers Pete, I love thsese old sets. The musical difference between 76 and 78/9 was really incredible, I had almost forgoten how much happeneed to the scene in those few years.

Can anyone tell me what the instrumental is about 11 minutes in? I love the wacky piano bit. Or maybe it isnt a piano at all!

Probably "Right On" by Al De Lory...definitely a piano!

Noticed 'No One Can Take Your Place' Inspirations on the poadcast. How rare is this now, is it still ultra rare, 3-4 copies?, is played anywhere?and I have the re-issue yonks ago an guess that even fetches a couple of quid!

Great upload thanks yet again for the memories, if only we digicams back then.....

Last night a friend gave me a CD which was taped in Mr M's, 1974 - Brian Rae. It's really clear, lot's of clapping. Unfortunately I wouldn't have a clue how to put it on here. :rolleyes:
