steve z Posted January 15, 2006 Posted January 15, 2006 Has anyone done this in the past ?Or are successfully playing a few that remain C/UPS ATB STEVIE
Simon T Posted January 15, 2006 Posted January 15, 2006 Has anyone done this in the past ? I wouldn't be suprised if some of Guy's and Keb's spots from Stafford era were. Andy Rix once did a spot where he introduced everything by it's once C/U name Or are successfully playing a few that remain C/UPS ATB STEVIE

Paul R Posted January 15, 2006 Posted January 15, 2006 (edited) Check this Mecca playlist out for 1974. I know a lot of them, but does anyone know all of them? Amongst others, I have noticed the ultra soulful Russ Abbot track. Paul Edited January 15, 2006 by Paul r

Ged Parker Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 Has anyone done this in the past ?Or are successfully playing a few that remain C/UPS ATB STEVIE The Neighbourhood put out a cover up special with one of the fanzines three or four years back. There was a prize for anyone who could name all the real tracks and artists. No one got close . Mind you Roly put it together so hardly a suprise there . Loads of good feedback though
Dayo Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 (edited) Check this Mecca playlist out for 1974. I know a lot of them, but does anyone know all of them? Amongst others, I have noticed the ultra soulful Russ Abbot track. Paul Obviously Freddie Jones and Estella Dennison are known cover-ups, but some of the songs in that Mecca ad may have been made up names and not even referring to any particular track. Soussan pressings were taking a lot of heat out of the scene in those days; anything you could do to put him off the scent or send him down a blind alley was considered fair game. Even wants lists sometimes featured fictitious records like I can't get enough by the Monk Higgin's Band. Well I assume it's a fictitious track..... Edited January 16, 2006 by Dayo
Paul R Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 From what I remember , Little Lee Howell was Marc Copage, as mentioned previously Eddie Foster I am a Painter was the Black Abbotts, Casino Brothers was Casanova Two, we all know Freddie & Estella and Johnny Jackson, and the End of the World is Sidras theme. Anyone know any of the rest? If they ever existed. Paul
Modernsoulsucks Posted January 17, 2006 Posted January 17, 2006 Cover ups are brill!! Searling's c/u's took longer to announce than actually play. "This is Alvera Washington and the Soul Senders featuring Lalome Jackson" The record itself was always a bit of a disappointment after such a build-up. ROD
