WOW Pioneering stuff Dave, not many people chasing records stateside at that time mate. Karen is doing well, hopefully back on the dancefloor before too long 👌

In keeping with the ethos of the event, quality tracks that don't cost a fortune rub shoulders with the big money rare stuff and the dancefloor love it !!

This is like a review of records I used to own. I had the LP with the original? version of "we gotta keep on" and "tonight I'm gonna see my baby" Freddie Hughes was one half of the cassanova II,as you probably know?

Thanks for the additional info on Rick Cooper and Swan records. Remember my early days buying records when they issued "The Spy" Guys from Uncle massive at the time, as we said earlier how times and tastes change!!

Spoke to Rick Cooper and he provided a fascinating insight people may or may not know Rick was the man responsible for the UK Cream Label in the mid 70s which released James Fountain Four Perfections and many more. We asked about the Eddie Carlton "it will be done" release which doesn't have "misery" on the flip, instead an instrumental of "it will be done" on the flip as the Swan tapes they had at Global records where Rick worked, included instrumental versions , which were a big thing at the time at places like Wigan Casino and "Misery" was not considered anything special at that time(how tastes change) They were lucky enough to find a machine owned by an ex BBC sound engineer and were able to convert the tapes to vinyl . A Piece of soul history I knew nothing about and hats off to Rick for being kind enough to share with me and Simon. I'm sure we won't be hearing the instrumental to "Misery" on the 19th will we Simon?? haha

A man with great taste and sorely missed. Anymore of the lyrics Sandra,what sort of intro?
-
-
A clue might be in who compiled the CD?
-
Sounded the business on that big old system at Culcheth, not forgetting the flip "it will be done" which had spins at the Casino and the guy who was responsible for the UK release on Cream Mr Rick Cooper is also a regular at The Ukrainian Club, wonder if he has any background on the release?
