As an aside, last Saturday night at Brid Weekender, Tats wouldn't let me play it (we were double decking for two hours).

He said it's the worst record ever made!

Now, I might have been inclined to agree with him were it not for the fact that 1) I have a rare OZ issue... and 2) I happen to think Tony Drake is a top, top bloke... and 3) we were running out of giddy uptempo stuff to play (its all they seemed to want at the time)!

Personally...I LOVE that Horn... but it's not particularly 'soulful' is it.

What do you think?

Should I have played it (and risked upsetting my buddy - or worse still, recieving a kneecap in the nether regions) or was he right to exert such strict quality control?

I would never have guessed that he was the dominant one in your relationship....

You should have played it. Everyone does a walky pointy dance to it. Well I do

In fact I will request it just for him in triplicate next time I see either of you

Everyone does a walky pointy dance to it. Well I do

I don't know that one

Remember when I bought this on Ebay 5 years ago (also a demo BTW!) I got a mail from Tony Drake himself telling me how great it was that I supported his music

Me too Tommy.

When I bought the Oz copy he was straight intouch.

He then started sending me all of his 'then' unreleased stuff and DVD's of his shows etc.

I tried to get UK Based Record label interested in issuing "Suddenly" backed with his then unreleased take of "Living In The Footsteps Of Another Man" for him, but got no joy.

Shame really, I reckon it would have sold a good few.

Finally, though, "Living In The Footsteps" did come out over here - without Suddenly on the reverse.

A really top guy - and, from what I've seen on the vids, an excellent performer.
