Derek Pearson Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Can anybody recall when this was first played? Where and by whom would be appreciated as well. Ta. Derek I'm trying to put a release date on this 45.
Reforee Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Derek Ace/Kent put a cd out on the label, would of thought release info is in the sleeve notes somewhere or can be narrowed down from the included information? Just a thought, hope your keeping well mate. Who played it first........my there is a question for every record,....probably the quality control man at the pressing plant! Lol. Dave H
Peter99 Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) I remember it being a massive Poke play at Clifton Hall although I understand that was a "reactivation". It has been discussed on here before Derek but I can't remember. The Mecca? I'll try and find the thread later. I finally managed to get a nice priced one on here last year. It's a super soul record and a stonker of a dance track! Pete Edited September 30, 2017 by Peter99
Peter99 Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Just did a quick check and think it's a 1974 release.
Rich B Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Always a 'Poke' record for me - Cliftonville hall and Cleethorpes - covered as the Quadrophonics at one point if I remember correctly. Glad you got one Peter - what's a 'nice' price then?
Robin S Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Birmingham Locarno - upstairs Modern room - 1981 is my first memory of it. As Rich says c/u as "The Quadrophonics" and played by Arthur/Mario. So no doubt a Snaith "Highwayman's Halt" record too...

Glad you got one Peter - what's a 'nice' price then? Hello Richard I hope all is well my friend. Are you still down the lane? A nice price is very subjective isn't it - and these days everything costs a fortune. I was happy to pay £150 for a nice minter of a long time want that reminds me so much of Rotherham. Trying to put together a very modest new collection after selling up previously is tough - having had a go for a couple of years I'm toying with the idea of .............selling up again. It's a funny old world! Sending you my best mate. Pete

Thanks for reminding me about the Kent CD's Dave H - finally put some time aside and went through my unsorted wall of CD's phew that took far longer than anticipated/expected. Kent put out a series of 3 volumes on 'A Carnival Of Soul' - (Vol one) Wishes, (Vol two) Feelin Good and (Vol three) I Wanna Be. And yes I think you all know what's coming hahaha - I've got vols 1 & 2 but not vol 3 which would date the Pretenders 'Just Be Yourself'. At least I've narrowed the search down eh? I'm nearly there.
