Bazza Posted October 24, 2014 Author Posted October 24, 2014 I read some where that the 7 dwarfs changed into The Ambassadors in 64 ,but this is reckoned to be a 66 tune ,just wondered if there was any thing more known about it ? Bazza

Bazza Don't think that cane be true mate, this is definitely 66, they wouldn't have known to nick that Satisfaction riff in 64

Winsford Soul Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 What do we know about this ,lots of different idea's on who they were ,and boot v original,not heard it out for 35 year or more Bazza Bazza. Paid £110 for a original quite a few years back. Used to play it out at places like Winsford, Middleton etc to always a great reaction. It's a hard record to find. Still think it's a great tune Steve 3
Guest soultanforreal Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Bazza I paid 100 for it year ago. Was played at stoke massive reaction but rarely heard so when it is it usually works. Does for me but can understand some not liking it careful on boot and origs

Speedlimit Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 was once rumoured to be the rolling stones moonlighting from decca
Zed1 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 This seems to be one of those tracks that's too rare for one side of the scene - and not rare enough for the other, so doesn't get the plays it should. 1

Guest Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 It was a big sound in Wigan Casino back in the day.It was not played for very long as it was booted very shortly after it became popular.That was in the days when a newly discovered record was dropped by all DJ's as soon as it was booted.The pressing and the original are very similar.

MrsWoodsrules Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 It was a big sound in Wigan Casino back in the day. It was not played for very long as it was booted very shortly after it became popular. That was in the days when a newly discovered record was dropped by all DJ's as soon as it was booted. The pressing and the original are very similar. Yeah it was a big sound, at the very same time this was big, Bobby Diamond's Stop & Helen Shapiro Stop Pretending, every third record had Stop it in the title it seemed. Helen Shapiro's was the biggest on the dance floor but Bobby Diamonds the best sound IMO. 1
Zed1 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Yeah it was a big sound, at the very same time this was big, Bobby Diamond's Stop Long time - no play, and one of those tracks that instantly puts you back on that Station Rd floor. 2
MrsWoodsrules Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 (edited) Long time - no play, and one of those tracks that instantly puts you back on that Station Rd floor. Yeah agree, love that track, the bit where the track stops dead & then carries on, superb. What a voice too, pretty fly for a white guy! Edited October 24, 2014 by MrsWoodsrules
