Actually it was Dave Rivers & Dave Burton who gave it to Ian to play, so I'm afraid the London boys get the credit for discovering that gem................

Dave The Montclairs to be played at the Torch..........would have started a riot !!!!

Still smile when I think of the 1998 re-union, are they really going to demolish the Mecca ??

Good heavens that's Dave "The Legend" Rivers a dancin' too, boy is he one ugly mush !!

Be grateful for that

Thank you kind sir !! Your wise words will assist me in my tea gulping moments later tonight.

And you know this to be a fact ?? Can you show us the irrefutable evidence (just in case you don't know it, saying IMHO doesn't mean it's a fact) have you copies of faxes, e-mails, taped conversations proving it ???

Great stuff, any idea when they'll post some out-takes on their website? would love to get a peek Chris L

Wasn't bad hearing it for the 1st time in 1971 either...................

It's too late to go look for it, her "Bout love" is a cracker too, got some spins at the Torch circa 1973 it fell off the radar screen, not many people even know its existence.

Magnificent, apparently Chubby isn't so expensive to hire for a show, when I win the lottery I'll book him for sure...............errr.....and Valerie Leon

Her name is Valerie Leon a sex icon type person from the seventeis : https://www.valerieleon.com/ https://www.lovegoddess.info/Valeria%20Leon%20revised.htm She became famous for some very cheesy "Hi Karate" TV ads.....................Don't know what Hi Karate was ???

In fact the opposite is pretty interesting too, think of : Fred Smith - Mirwood/Keymen, etc Arthur Wright - Just about everything in Northern Soul They both sound like "Sid the Storemen"

That's interesting I have a copy..................

Get on your knees - Los Canarios Johnny Jones - Purple haze

I guess that's why he's called "Chubby"............

And the second best version of "Make me yours"

No it was Jon Slater, heres an example :

So are lots of things in this world, best action is "if you can't influence it don't worry about it".

Well said that man !! Well in part anyway, don't be too harsh on us Londoners, we brought a fair amount of records up to the North in the early 70T's Chris L

Meethinks this is on the Outakes of This England, also in colour.

What a coincidence, I was just about to ask the same question : I have just bought this, I thought it was a boot, it has 4 turn run in and 7078 & 7079 scratched in run-out. So I guess this is an original, I have always had the blue copies before. Thanks Chris L

"Lets hear songs with a Motown beat and a great melody again." Aahh................I remember them...................wonderful................

Welcome aboard Ian, don't rise to the personal attacks, let it run down the guttering. Make positive only contributions, don't give anybody the excuse to start spouting off. Good luck..............................

Why personal sniping ? I do hope you are not sick and that you can't help but post these kinds of mails, if so do get better soon.............
