Hokis Pokis - Interviews

[Anoraks Corner]

Always had a soft spot for Hokis Pokis' "Nowhere" and "Swing", with the latter being a popular spin for Dave Thorley at Yate and later still at Stafford.

There was a recent LP issue of all their sides plus some unissued tracks on Ubiquity...this sparked my (re)interest and I stumbled across a couple of YouTube clips of an interview with Joey DiGirolamo (lead singer/founder)...not the best interviewing techniques, but the stories from Joey are excellent.

Swing was a Mecca Classic as a new release- I have the Rare RCA Canadian demo and in my top five of all time.

Seen those videos some time ago - Really great!
