Mark Jones Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 (edited) Over 25 Years ago now...been recording some old C90's to mp3 and here's Eddie Holman on April 12th 1985 at Regency Suite Hinckley (across the road from the leisure centre) Was a great night....some great annecdotes from Eddie between the songs...especially about Larry Clinton saying what a tough guy he was and when Larry said write a record for me you didn't say no! - That record turned out to be "She's Wanted"! Chris King put the night on (used to use Regency Suite when leisure centre was booked)...saw Martha Reeves at the venue too....Snake Davis and the Suspicions providing the music on the night with his unmistakeable Sax! Excellent night! Here's the song list: Eddie's my Name She's Wanted All in the Game I Surrender Hey There Lonely Girl Hurt Where I'm not Wanted This will be a night to remember This Gets to me Edited July 8, 2010 by soulechoes
Amsterdam Russ Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) A photo of Eddie Holman taken at that self-same event (I'm pretty sure). With Eddie is Kev Griffin. This would have been one of my first ever all nighters. Edited July 8, 2010 by rigilbert

This would have been one of my first ever all nighters. Nice picture! Oh the memories...been hidden a drawer for years...nice to hear again. Brings it all back for sure! Refosoul now fixed!
Soulman Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 They used to have some great do's in Hinckley. Remember the Eddie Holman gig. Took Andy Rix over there before he had a car. We also saw Popcorn Wylie and I'm sure I recall seeing the Supremes there too. Like you say, 25 years ago and my memory is a bit fuzzy but great memories none the less.
