I vaguley remember a track from '85 that Keb used to play at Stafford around 85 around the same time he was playing Anthony and the Aqualads. It began:

"Got to be a reason......why you wanna make me blue.....got be a reason.....why you do the things you do......"

Would really like to know what it is as remember it being a great track....any ideas from this vague description? It was 22 years ago so bear with me! rolleyes.gif

Yeah, was legit as far as I'm aware and limited (still a few knocking around). Can remember Paul Franklin turning a copy of this up at Beanos in Croydon early '80s! Think he swapped it with Guy for Sharon Macmahon (Gotta Find Another Guy), but might have been the copy Keb ended up with.

THINK 300 QUID IS A BLOODY GIVEAWAY FOR THIS TOP CHOON. JOHNNY BOY MUST'VE BEEN DESPERATE TO SELL BEFORE HE LEFT FOR AUS. B SIDE IS A CRACKIN VERSION OF THE SHOWMEN'S 39-21-46(WHY NO WRITER'S CREDITS ON THIS RECORD).
