club cards for the attic hounslow and pontiac club putney the attic didnt have much ambiance and was small .the pontiac was better but the owner didnt pay This is in reply to Sceneman - sorry screwed up the quote facility! Interesting as I now live on Upper Richmond Road. Zeta House is a landmark building in Putney close to the overground and East Putney tube so a great location for a music venue. There’s more info about the club here :- https://garagehangover.com/pontiac-club-zeeta-house-putney-london/

During my government authorised exercise this morning in Putney.

Here’s a few images of acetates and 45’s I took when I tracked down my late uncle’s band mate, Gary Freeman, from the early 60’s. When I visited him I took my Mac book and a portable disc player to record a 45 they made in 1965, a credible cover of James Brown’s - I’ll Go Crazy, as I’d lost the copy I had on a cassette tape. I was surprised when he produced the other 45’s.

The link to JM’s auction site which appeared on my Facebook feed today shows the auction for that 45 finishes on 20/1/21 but when you search his website it’s not there. Odd.

The Wallace Brothers album fetched a decent figure. A copy turned up in the charity shop where I used to volunteer - I might have undervalued it!

Good - pro sounding production - Hope it does well.

Some pictures taken on walks and cycle rides near the Thames mostly at Putney where I live.

Agree good tune. Joe Soap posted it earlier on 11/10/20 and got several likes.

Very sad news. Had the pleasure of seeing him and his group perform at The Royal Festival Hall in 2004 ( The Yardbirds we’re also on the bill ) and had a really great night. R.I.P.

Great performance here:-

This event was promoted by Mick Maguire, Billy Whizz’s younger brother and I think a guy called Skip who was a popular local DJ and who tragically passed away a couple of years later. My main recollection of the night was foolishly passing up a copy of Darrell Banks Is Here LP ( £2.00 ) for a bootleg copy of Our Love / Open The Door To Your Heart. What a div! I was only 15 though. Seem to remember The Flasher being played a few times. A couple of months later my mates and I became regulars at St Ives.

Good listen. Thanks for sharing Rob.

A few faves Marvin Gaye - Little Darling Four Tops - Reach Out , Standing In The Shadows Of Love, Bernadette, 7 Rooms Of Gloom, Shake Me Wake Me Supremes - Come See About Me, Reflections, You Keep Me Hanging On Isley Bros - I Guess I’ll Always Love You

Flip of I’ve Got The Need.

When I listened earlier to the Joni Wilson cut and heard the repeated lyric “All Your Goodies Are Gone”, I thought to myself that I’d seen that title before but wasn’t sure where. If it’s the flip of Don’t Be Sore At Me it makes it a double sider. Will check out the later Parliament version.

According to a comment on You Tube in relation to the Joni Wilson track, The Parliaments version is better known as All Your Goodies Are Gone. Apologies if you knew that already Ady.

Another great Ivy Jo Hunter & Mickey Stevenson tune. Two others of theirs I love are:- Tell Me Its Just A Rumour and Got To Have You Back.

From 1980. Decent modern soul tune which peaked at 28 in the UK charts 28.6.80.

Recent charity shop find - flip to Seven Lonely Nights 45.

Cleethorpes Winter Gardens All-Dayer August 1977. Rounded off a great weekend having been to Wigan for the first time the night before.

Soul Dells - When your youth and beauty has finally gone Make sure you have someone who loves you. ( Good advice to all ) Non Soul The ultimate put down in a pop song. Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street You see me on the street, you always act surprised You say "how are you?", "good luck", but ya don't mean it When you know as well as me, you'd rather see me paralyzed Why don't you just come out once and scream it I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes And just for that one moment I could be you Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes You'd know what a drag it is to see you
