  1. Just for the crack i asked Searling (at Wigan) if he had the latest record by Keith Harris and his duck Orville, and with a smile on his face he told me to do one.Likely it was the saturday after the monthly's friday oldies night,god that could be a long drawn-out night at times. regards Gilly and Nicola

  5. I think there are 3/4 knocking around my old one went to Tim Brown who passed it on to Ginger. Mick Smith has one that was Searlings at one time, am i right in thinking good old Ted Massey also owns a copy. regards Gilly and Nicola,
  6. Well your bang on with that Trev and ill tell you why. Going back a few years i remember the usual few of us standing in Wigan record bar hearing Richard Searling ,Sam, Gary Rushbrook, Pat Brady playing high quality tunes such as C Washington, Magnetics +2 Nomads, Billy Hambric, Lester Tipton, Larry Clinton, E Holman, you get the picture now of the quality of sounds the likes of Dave Malloy, Rob Marriot, Mick and Ian from Notts,Kev Joss, the Stoke lads and a bunch of hardcore people including myself but all in all not that many of us. It seemed most people only wanted to hear oldies (whatever that ment) now sometime later after Wigan had shut up shop i went to a bank hol sunday allnighter,at the Ritz, the place was rammed hundreds of folkes giving it the big one on the dance floor to the sounds ive mentioned above. Now i'm thinking were the hell were they 1st time round when the numbers were a bit thin on the ground. And so that goes on, people going for the well established easy opption. Well for what its worth thats how i see it regards Gilly

  10. Hi i've kept all maner of things, Blues and Soul mags (all of them i think) Black Echoes from issue one onwards, Black Music, most of the mags from the early seventies, hundreds of flyers, record lists etc etc ive even got an old beer mat from Samanthas with Bob Bloors phone No on it (Bradford) also the (official) last night Wigan entry ticket both halves not torn. This is not forgeting all the stuff i've fetched back from Detroit. You could say suitcases of old rubbish but its been my life so i'll keep them a little longer. regards Gilly
  11. I remember being in that pub close to and indeed waiting for the Manchester Ritz all-dayer to open having been at the Casino the night before myself and my good buddy Kev from Burton was having a cracker of a time being entertained by the late great Martin Ellis, he was propper on form that is until Kev from Burton put some money in the jukebox and by mistake selected Oh Carol well we all fell about laughing our bollocks off,only for Martin to stand back, shake his head and say I CANT BEAT THAT FUC.ER NOT EVEN ME. what a guy and what a mad afternoon we had. regards and indeed respect Gilly
  12. Hi anyone remember Janey Nichols from Halton nr Lancaster i'm sure she won an early Wigan dance comp, she was as pretty as a picture.I think Dave Evison went out with her for a while,as he did most blonds in those days,still a great guy and looks so happy these days nice one Dave regards Gilly
  13. Ive recently moved down northampton from Derby (my home town) so up until June i used to see Larry and do business with him several times a week. I know where he works but dont want to disclose that without him knowing first, he's not on the scene any more and he looks good.Now as for Nobby and Barbara i lived with them for several months in the 80ts not sure of their current abode, might be worth asking Den-Mac he will know, again not on the scene (bald headed twat) smile. kind regards Gilly.
  14. I used to use gin or vodka at one time (clean a record have a swig ) regards Gilly

Yes as Flynny said hand written on plastic at 7 inch. Dont remember what was on the flip thou. Kind regards Gilly
  17. Very sad news indeed, still got and still read his old mags, used to talk to him a lot many years ago Good night and god bless old friend Gilly
  18. Does anyone remember Kip Mc'crae from Burton on Trent sadly he was killed on his way home from the Torch in the early 70ts I used to be engaged to his sister in the mid 70ts and would love to hear any stories anyone can tell any pictures would be good too. As a very young teenager at the time i only think i can remember what he looked like. Thank you gilly from Derby/Burton
