It was a Wigan c/u for Richard. I think though it's a white pop group, maybe from Connecticut.

Rock Candy C/U

oops sorry already stated above. At the time I hadn't heard the Dontee group and wondered why he's used the name of a crap pop band that had a minor (I think) hit on MCA.

Listen to the B side and you'll understand why! Trippy Folk Dirge if my memory serves correct called LIFE (sold my copy in the early 90s so memory not what it was) If they anit white then the Pope anit Catholic :-)

You're right of course, they're clearly white and not really trying to sound otherwise. I used to get it mixed up with the similarly titled "Enter Sunshine" by Georgie Porgie on Jubillee, also briefly played by Richard, I recall. Great Trade Martin production on that one.

What I meant was, not knowing the soul band with the same name I was puzzled by the use of a such a non-credible pseudonym. As far as the song goes, I really like the long instrumental break with brass and percussion. A bit less keen on the rest but I remember it was pretty popular and there''s still demand for it so what do I know?

Loved Rock Candy C/U at Clifton Hall, that instro break always seemed to lose interest half way through by dancers and many would walk off Godz.

Well the dancers should show a bit more imagination :rolleyes:

Only kidding, I know what you mean Jock. Just saying to listen to the break sounds more interesting and not quiet as cheesey. To my ears of course. I like lots of stuff that other folk think is dire and that's a fact.
