Mick Holdsworth Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 Been sorting through old tapes and have been meaning to ask this before. I had an acetate years ago and put it on a tape as a last track. Unfortunately, the tape ran out half way through. On the listing I wrote "True True Lover" / "Robert Bateman" , although I'm sure that was a "Cover Up" title. I'm sure the acetate is out there somewhere, circa 1980/81. I hope this rings a bell with someone, and they can give me any details I've posted a clip from my tape (Sorry its only half there.) Uncredited - True True Lover - Cheers Mick
Md Records Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 I'm sure it is "Vidalia" on an "Abtone" Acetate Des Parker
Mick Holdsworth Posted October 10, 2010 Author Posted October 10, 2010 I'm sure it is "Vidalia" on an "Abtone" Acetate Des Parker That's great - thanks Des
Anoraks Corner Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 An ex GuyH spin at Stafford...I had it down as Robert Bateman 'Don't Give Up' on a Bell acetate? As I recall the original acetate isn't in the best of shape either.

Mick Holdsworth Posted October 10, 2010 Author Posted October 10, 2010 good god mick!, its no good sayin thanks pal......how did you fookin well let that slip from your grasp!!?? thats a piece of detroit history missing from the jigsaw:no: .......ALRIGHT THEN........WHO HAS GOT IT?? Well, I had it for about 4/5 years - late 70's early 80's - It was rough but played OK, albeit a bit flat In all that time I probably played it out 2/3 times at most. I have a vague idea I eventually sold it to either Gary Rushbrook or Guy Hennigan. - 30 years down the line I agree, I should have kept it, but at the time ... Since Des mentioned Vidalia, it is sparking another memory - wasn't Vidalia the Production company behind "Sam Williams" etc. Cheers Mick
Cobbles Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 as des says "vidalia" on abtone....thought it ended up in butch's hands!!?? franc

Ion T Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Hi, I remember it well as a Guy spin at Stafford. It went to Butch and he plays it occasionally. Great stuff! Ion
