Hammersoul Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Does anybody know/remember when these 2 lp`s were released? Self titled-Optimistics tu 7001. Self titled-The New Sounds Tu 7002. I know Lonnie Youngblood live lp is from 71 Tu 7003. Seems to be little info about on both these great lp`s.

Sweet Memories-Robert Tanner 45 was from 1970 who was one of the Singers in New Sounds so i would imagine it would be around `69` ,maybe 1970 before the 45. It was also done by New Sounds/Written by Dawson Smith band member. Didn`t a member interview one of the band a while back?Maybe someone could post up the interview .

Robert Tanners 45s were recorded in Dawson Smith's studio in Lynchberg. 3 or so members of the New Sounds had recorded as solo acts with Dawson. Think 2-3 year gap between Robert Tanner and New Sounds. There was a young guy in Lynchberg who interviewed and got the scoop on how it all fitted together. Google it when u stuck in TdF traffic with your meter off this afternoon Waynipoos....... :
Chalky Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Dawson Smith and Tanner are still residing in Lynchberg or they were the last I read.

According to Funky Virginia the 45's were first lp later which is how I understood it to be. https://funkyvirginia.blogspot.co.uk/2008_08_01_archive.html can't find much evidence yet of the interview Steve mentions.

Chalky Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) DJmadlad seems to be the one in the know, the info is probably on his site.... https://www.djmadlad.com Edited July 7, 2014 by chalky
Steve G Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 DJmadlad seems to be the one in the know, the info is probably on his site.... https://www.djmadlad.com DJmadlad, that' the lad, doesn't he talk about the 500 press tuns of Robert Tanners 45s and recording them in his one track studio? I researched it for my book because Dawson Smith had a 45 on Scepter in the 70s….

Hammersoul Posted July 8, 2014 Author Posted July 8, 2014 Ha ha very good Steve .Your be pleased to know i avoided all the tour de France yesterday ,most of the jobs were away from event . Looks like the Robert Tanner 45 was a mid 60`s recording going by Sir Rambling site(he`s usually bang spot on) so discogs is wrong . Will check out and ask mad lad .Thx for the help chaps
