Jez Jones Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Just seen a playlist with more than a couple of pre Wigan sounds. Just wondered on a snowy afternoon for a bit of light relief, are that any more sounds played before Wigan that are still doing the biz up and down ?..or some personal faves that you don't hear out but think deserve an airing... I;ll start with a few Alice Clark You hit me.......... Herb Johnson I'm so Glad Valentines Breakaway Puzzles My Sweet Baby James Bounty Prove yourself a Lady Lets see what we got folks..... 2

Popular Post macca Posted January 18, 2015 Popular Post Posted January 18, 2015 Do people over there limit themselves to listening rather than taking to the floor then? I think a lot of the Torch era stuff is very fast, so while I'm not excessively portly, I do get knackered when taking on something like the Van Dykes Save My Love For A Rainy Day, and that's just in my living room. What a great record though! 4
Billywhizz Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 I played this tonight first time out in Norwich, charity all dayer i was in the small room. First time i played this it got a crack on the run out (quite a bad crack actually) The springers - nothings too good for a baby - on wale, it cleared the floor, i couldnt believe it, i take it this is an old wigan track i never heard it out played. cheers billy
