Wicked

Billy's version is a classic, no doubt about it, but I think I'd rather listen to Jerry's version these days.

I remember a seeing a guy in Wigan with a pair of baggies made from beer towels. And you think you didn't look cool.

Yes I went there not a bad nighter as far as I can remember.

My son bought me the Memphis '68 and the Harlem '69 for my birthday a couple of weeks ago, I've just started the Memphis '68, all very good so far.

And any so called djs that played it

Linda Jones and Whatnauts all day long. One of her best I would say.

Could be Pat Swallow or something like that, there was a bit of tension between Llandudno and Rhyl (skinhead days) so we didn't go there.

Gotta be Howard.

Gets my vote, but then again I am Welsh.

I went there on a coach with the North Wales Soul Club, what a dump of a place. Sound system was dreadful my ears were ringing for days after. I do remember the Joker being played a few times that night, can't remember the DJs though. I think we had a better time going around some rough pubs in the city centre earlier in the night.

Artistics for me but JH great version also, I'm not so much into the up-tempo stomp stomp stuff these days but ask me in 6 months time and it might be different.

Great record, better than some of the sh*te I've heard over the years.

Edwin by a mile, Doni is a awful singer imo.

A mate of mine still has a few of the original shirts from '70/'71. I seem to remember the box having a wood grain effect on it and If you listen to 'Skinhead Jamboree' by Symarip there's a line 'Ben Sherman shirt fifty nine and six' Just less than 3 quid which I thought was well expensive back then.

The friendship club, that's long gone, there's a school there now. I remember the Pomagne now, foul tasting stuff.
