grant Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 May E Melvin Davis Find A Quiet Place Wheel City 1003 VG++ 700 Vintage Detroit pounder was like a breadth of fresh air amongst the Muriel Day's, Cobblestone etc back in 1978. Again, condition is very strong for the gradation pasted from Anglo American sales list, agree with the comment on Muriel Day BUT the Cobblestone track was great in its day and still is a storming dancer, defo was just right at the time! Pete S - if you are reading this I know we discussed recently about whether or not this was booted, but I still have a vision of a blue label, booted as the Tempos - Love Me Like A Man Grant

I hated that Cobblestone track, and other crap played at the time like Wakefield Sun, The Priceless Gem, John Leach (Searling played it every week but I only ever met one person who liked it), John Drevars, Black Power etc

Guest in town Mikey Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 I heard John Drevars out a couple of months ago, and it sounded great. The track has a special place in my heart, even though I dont play my copy at all. Hearing loud again was a nice memory jerker.

Guest in town Mikey Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 didnt an awful version of it come out on destiny or something too Mikey? Pretty sure it did. Maybe I was too young in 78, and I am pretty sure I didnt give a rats back then about the 60s v the 70s stuff but while Murial Day may be a carbunkle on the face of an old friend, the Cobblestones and JD are tracks that are lookers who can still do it 30 years on.
Pete S Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 i wasin my dancefloor element then Pete, loved john drevars and john leach (was i the one who liked it lol) - cant remember The Priceless Gem though mate It was on MGM by "Jamie". Awful.
Pete S Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 didnt an awful version of it come out on destiny or something too Mikey? It did but it had nothing to do with the original, they just got a session singer in and called him John Drevar!
Harry Crosby Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 It was on MGM by "Jamie". Awful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HM0y1M64fGU and whats up with this pete, errr [tongue in cheeck]

grant Posted May 13, 2009 Author Posted May 13, 2009 See I was right, it's horrendous isn't it..Alan Rhodes spin alan used to do a great spot, played some excellent stuff, but he did slip in the odd bit of shite now and again, remember an LP track he used to play, got it somewhere, cant remember the name, but it was awful - sort of 70's semi-rock thing!! bit hall & oates -like. but he used to make up with playin the likes of the cautions, JD, legends, etc
