Guest sigher the gutter snype Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Great double sider,had this for many years now came via a Soul pack in the 80s Dave f........ think they are just the same group as the exits but different name. love both sides too operator is a killer. believe the "shoeshine " side used to be well collected over in japan, more so than the operator which maybe got overlooked. not so now though.

Cheers for that - better check some Exits 45s then .Have to agree a great and probably over looked 45. ATB Rich

ATB Rich yeah just buy the exits 45's "another sun down in watts" kapp,killer, not cheap "under the street lamp" gemini 2 sided killer and prettuy cheap
Dave Thorley Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Killer tune, was played by Colin Curtis, back in the day at the Mecca. About time it hit the wheels of steel in a big way again
Harrogatesoul Posted April 27, 2006 Author Posted April 27, 2006 yeah just buy the exits 45's "another sun down in watts" kapp,killer, not cheap "under the street lamp" gemini 2 sided killer and prettuy cheap Another Sundown - awesome awesome tune. £2 - £300?? Under The Streetlamp b/w You Got to Have Money - Easily £50 these days - my copies a bit worse for wear these days - one of those that were a fiver for donkeys years - then.... Great double sider. Yellow / Green / Light Green issues - any difference or just one of those things? I Don't Want To Hear It - Dont have this one - Great tune tho. Whats the flip ? Any more?? For your listening pleasure!! ATB Rich

ATB Rich Good tune this had mine since the late 70's it is Jimmy Conwell on Vocals and much the same line up as the Exits. I did discuss this with Jimmy when he was at the Cala Gran after he sang 'Shoeshine Boy' in his live set. Unfortunately I've slept since then so can't recall the differences in line up.
50 Shades Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) Look out for the James Conwell (Exits) Album (if you can get a decent copy), it's bloody awesome. Shoeshine Boy, Sundown & Gotta have money on the lp along with other Exits numbers not on 45's Just seen it's an original post from 2006 - Derrrrrrrrrr!!! Cheers Kev. Edited February 1, 2017 by 50 Shades Info revised
Guest James Hill Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 cheers Kev I already have the exits 45
Tricky Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Pretty sure all the Gemini west coast releases are the same group. Exits, New Group,Light Drivers and Multiple Choice. Not a duff release among em. Tricky
