Some of my choices would be Brothers Gilmore - I feel A Song Tony Fox - Love, Let Love and be Loved Tower of Power - So Very Hard Bobby Hutton - Wanting You, Needing You Just a few favourites of mine

I knew I could rely on you Simon.

I hear you've been spinning a bit of moderrn recently Bearsy. Well done.

Just to be a pain - and I know we've done this before cos I started it, but....................... never mind the reactivation of oldies. How's about reactivating some of the hundreds of modern tunes that saw the light of day - or night, for a very brief spell in the 80's.

I agree with your take on this Russ.

Yep you're right Belly! The Glen I mentioned was Glen Unwin. I seem to recall that we managed to drag em to one of the Cleethorpes all nighters - but I could be wrong! Twas a long time ago.

Aha - Dave Lindley! I used to know him quite well - he spent quite a bit of time in Mablethorpe when I lived there. He used to knock around with Glen (can't remember his surname at the minute) and another tall blond haired lad.

Cracking tune in my opinion. Haven't heard it for years.

Hey Barry! Your posts always make me smile mate! Did you replace your Lucky Davies? If you didn't and you still want one for the memories pm me. I've got a copy that you can have gratis cos you make me smile and I like yer drunken fooking ramblings!

Hi Byrney I remember this one too. I seem to recall the opposition being a group of skins who started everything off by shouting racist bullshit? It was the same night that someone undid the wheel nuts on me Ford Cappreeee Ghia!

Your Right Chrissie You should see our Oxfam "music" shop in West Bridgford, Notts. It's sooooo posh! They have all the records displayed in a refitted special room upstairs - there are collectable posters on the wall, and a deck to play stuff if you want to check it out. There's a whole lish mash of records - from 1920's stuff to punk to The Beatles etc. I went in the other week and couldn't believe some of the prices they were charging. But typical of West Bridgford there were plenty middle class poncy punters buying stuff cos they think it makes em trendy!

Quality tune

I used to knock around with some scooter lads from Arnold - there names may come to me! We were the younger lot - although I was never a regular. Shippo (RIP) used to go and Pickles - who's on here. Some lads from Lincoln and Mablethorpe - I was from Mablethorpe back in those days! I'll start thinking through some of the names.

Ay Up! Went to the Brit on and off. I ain't got no pics though!

Great memories Kenneth!

.... another Billy Stewart "tip of the week" cheap as chips, just the way we like 'em Billy Stewart No Girl Chess Really like this.

Blimey!! Barbiturates - they are a blast from the past. I'd almost forgotten they were once part of NS.

I'm not sure - although they reckon one looks like a million dollars.

So there's a book launch and a book lunch! Your not having one of those poncy lunches are you Reg?

There's nothing wrong with that post Barry - some great, and important points about the music - not being 60s, 70s or 80s in particular. Searling was a fooking genius etc etc. Nice one mate. Peter

I like your post James - amusing, but, very true. I agree entirely with what this post says - not that it matters what I think!

No worries mate.

Name that fooking tune.

Blimey! It must have taken a great deal of patience to actually put a finished book together - well done Reg. It's got to be worth a read in my view - just got one off Amazon.
