Pete S Posted July 21, 2007 Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) As requested, I've dug some more Wigan tapes out and will post a few up in the next day or two, this first one is a Richard Searling spot from 79, only about 35 minutes but there's some excellent tracks and you can see the quality starting to come back after what was in retrospect a very dodgy 1978 as far as quality new discoveries went. I've had to register on my podcast.com incognito as they banned me last time so please ignore the fluffy pink background https://happybeaver.mypodcast.com/200707_archive.html click on the play button use this link below if you see only one or no podcasts! https://www.raresoul.co.uk/wordpress/?page_id=11 Edited July 22, 2007 by Pete-S

Cheers Paul Yes loads but that was all I had chance to do last night sorry - all sorts of converting I have to do so it takes a while to get it recorded, prepared and published.

Guest martyn Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 Thats Liberty "Girl you better wake up" on BASF. Sounds fantastic - the vocal on the a side is as bad as the instrumental is good Cheers Pete,it was one of those moments when after all these years a sound from the past hits you right between the eyes but you never new what it was called -puts you right back there as a sweaty pilled up 16 year old again with all your mates for a split second
