Guest in town Mikey Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 The list could be endless for this one but myself I'm gonna hold to my favorite three: Stewart Ames - Angelina, Oh Angelina Betty Lloyd - I'm Catching On Metros - Since I found My Baby Valerie Lamar - Shame Empires -You're on top girl Martells - Where can my baby be Inverts - Time can change Betty Turner - Winds kept laughing Do I have to stop?
Guest Jim. Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 Valerie Lamar - Shame Empires -You're on top girl Martells - Where can my baby be Inverts - Time can change Betty Turner - Winds kept laughing Do I have to stop? Betty Turner - Winds kept laughing...what a tune! You can keep going for me Mikey...
Guest in town Mikey Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 Betty Turner - Winds kept laughing...what a tune! You can keep going for me Mikey... OK Jim. One more. its one I can never remember the title of. It is on the Leicester anniversary video. Keb is plying it downstairs. Its a real 100 mile an hour tune and has some lyrics in it that vaguely go along the lines of ............love affairs i found you my love ........ now that I felt your thrilling touch i miss your lovin Oh so much Hey hey. I didnt you didnt love me or something like that. I have it on a tape, but STILL cant rememeber artist or title. Another that doesnt get mentioned to often. might have been covered as The Ringleaders - Stop the World (I wanna get off)
Jumpinjoan Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 Although not my favourite ... this is definitely the record i most identify with Stafford more than any other ... SUSAN REWIS - THEY SAY YOU'VE FOUND A NEW BABY - COLUMBIA Of course c/up as Demita James & the Wild Side - All the hurt & You ..... can still hear Guy introducing it now ... great stuff

If its the one I'm thinking of what a tune! Grant

Guest Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Cant remember if some of these were C/Us Freddie And The Turbines "Bernadine" Two Plus Two "Love Will Conquer All" Del Chantays "Baby I Need You" Michael Christian " If I Can't Have You" Where is that John Pugh when you need him !!!!! Wasn't Bernadine covered up as the Teen Turbans - Say You Love Me I remember when Ion used to play it, and Carl Fortnum can be made to play it these days. One of them records that I've loved since the first time I heard it! I'm too young to have gone to Stafford or even Leicester so I cannot add any memories to this list!
Guest uroffal Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Three more truly great Stafford sounds for me : James Dockery - My Faith In You Is All Gone Gracie Dumas - Song Of A Woman Oscar Perry - Face Reality

Kirtsy got the Fred & Turbines right Kitch bought Ion's copy if I remember rightly. Can't recall or remember Del Chantays being covered Michael Christian was covered as Nolan Chance & Constellations by Pat Brady. Two Plus Two covered by Butch as Servicemen.
John Al Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Gracie Dumas - Song Of A Woman Oh yes - top tune. Anyone mentioned: Fear - Scotty Williams House of Broken Hearts - Hal Hardy John

If its the one I'm thinking of what a tune! Grant You are obvioulsy thinking of Gerri Diamond from your relpy you Chalky. However, Guy & Keb also used to play another 'wait for the beat' i.e. Patti Livingston - I've got my baby, now that does start with a bit of wailing!

Can remember the Patti Livingston too, infact bought my old copy from Guy back in the 80's. Might be worth a few spins again.
Simon T Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Simon I don't remember Carlena Williams mate ? U/R track played by Dave Thorley I seem to remember.
