Steve Mancha at Prestatyn?

I’m sure agentsmith will put them on tomorrow If not I’ll ask Tim for them and post them. Haha just seen he’s posted them half an hour ago.

Also at Prestatyn, Rita Graham told us she never met the Tiaras. The track and backing vocals had all been done prior (for Gloria Jones I’d presume)

Can’t guarantee it was my 1st but if not very close. Sam & Kitty £1 on my 17 birthday at the casino 4th anniversary 1977 - Still got it. 1st original epitome of sound £4 Notts Palis same year - still got it.

Always listen out for the backing singers for some reason. I thought they had a cushy day on a "Thousand Wounders" - TSU Tornadoes as they do virtually nothing (great track though) Then we have Eddie Holland - Daydreamer where the backing singers are even asking questions to which he replies.

And what a great night it was. Even won small tin of biscuits in the raffle.

Bellman’s yard is an hour and half drive for us. Never miss it unless we’re away. Top club, so friendly. Worth the visit to see mr grumps on the bar. 🤣🤣🤣 Top class sounds.

Thanks Zenetti, always good to keep up with auction prices. I’ve packed in posting them now due to complaints but always look out for yours and Agentsmiths auction results.

Didn’t read the title correctly- thanks for pointing out. 👊🏻

Harvey Averne - Never Learned To Dance and as mentioned The Tempest, that takes some beating without a doubt.

Sandy Golden - Your Love Is Everything/ When We’re All Alone Tonight.

My all time favourite record The Young Brothers - What’s Your Game / Baby. There’s two different cuts of Baby and both are just class.

Talmadge Armstrong got to be the best double sides ever. I booked Nige Brown for the Boat Club as he has one, sadly he didn’t play it. 🤦🏻

I’m told the funeral will be private for family and close friends only.

So sorry to hear Ted has passed away. He's been a friend for more years than I can remember, and a true gentleman. A legend to our scene. RIP Ted.

Here’s conditions, write ups and starting prices.

Met her at Blackpool weekend a few years back. Such a lovely lady. Rest in peace Ann.

A few years back I was asked why I was playing Cliff Nobles OLIGS on Atlantic at an ovo night as first release was on VJ by an acquittance so no malice intended (I think) Obviously we went through the local / national release thing but he was still objective. I said if I was to offer you the Ivories on Despenza or Wand which would you want and he said Wand as its so much rarer. He then agreed that both local / national releases are ok to play. We went on to agree that records made deliberately for the northern scene should not be played at an ovo event UNLESS unreleased like Grapevines Barons Of Soul & Eddie Holman. Were not the soul police so who cares what we came up with. Yes I run an ovo event but I attend events without worrying what there policy is. So in my opinion some grapevine are ok but not all.
