Yup and there's thousands draining their credit cards to see these geeks Where did we go wrong?

Would be some whip round....who'se bringing the Securicor van

He must have re recorded it then because the vocals on the Tyrone Thomas seem a bit "deeper" than Little Tommy

His Wand 45 and also P&L 45 "I wanna be with you" PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZ - this would tear the roof off the sucker

Don't tell our mate Ian, I am sure he'd have a go at it

Got a Marvellettes book and also a Gladys Knight one, both of which I've taken on holiday several times and never got round to reading

Bump N Grind Johnny Copeland. Little Milton Chuck Jackson, Etta James etc all R&B and all fabulous. Agree with you on the rockabilly stuff tho'

Not sure lets ask him.,....

OMG we agree on something at long last R&B!

Think they all have that on em Dave. Seem to recall the story was that Ernie Campbell pressed up some promos, but never distributed them. By the time old Dave Hassle found him he had 25 left and Dave got them all. I've never seen or heard of a copy that didn't come from Dave so it's fair to say the rest were probably trashed. Dave never got any Nurons off of him either Steve

Quite likely....old John would say no one wanted them back then so he had to put them in packs. My how times have changed....Steve

Couple of days Dave? - I've been looking for months m8.....got it for £30 from Soul Bowl a few years back - can I find the bloody thing!

Cant find my copy anywhere

I'll ask Ian about it - I owe him a call and a chat anyway....but thanks for the background Sebastian. No problem playing album tracks is there? I play Tyrone Thomas LP version of "Baby can't you see" cos I think it's better than Little Tommy.

Ha Dave you got one as well have you?

Do you have it? Had always thought it a spoof Sebastian? Am happy to be proven wrong......

Yus Siree they sure do.

Beware the babelfish - it translates from the wrong side of town.

Yeah he told me that too. One real issue is do you put em on in concert at a venue, or put em on at a northern night? I really think they'd be better in concert with a support act at this point. I think you'd attract an audience that don't neccesarily go to northern do's. If those costs are still accurate, then with venue, equipment, staff, proper promotion etc you wouldn't get much change out of 100k. But it would still be worth it to see these top boys again

...A re-issue then

When it comes to live acts, after the Dells I would have to say the 2nd best group I've seen live was The Originals at The Ritz for Richard's 50th - another awesome night.

....or over zeleous DJ's on "Pitch control"

I presume we're talking about "natural" note holds - only mentioned it because there's a track on the Passion LP on Preldude that has a continuous note hold on it, but it's obviously programmed

Not me Chalky - only have a minute hand on my watch.

I think we're gonna have to get the stop watches out and time em all
