He should have also pointed out that digging a hole & filling it with £10 notes, would also have been the cheaper option

But just think if my car breaks down I have an alternative form of transport!

Funny how Russ gets stick on here,  his place on the scene deserves more respect than people show. He's not on the scene now,

Wasn't he at Wolverhampton the other week playing records - I am sure I saw it posted on here....

I thought that he had a regular (weekly gig???) in Nottingham & didn't they have the Flirtations on at Christmas?

BTW Liked the Instrumental on the Scene gag but surely Simon Soussan should get some credit for some of those instrumentals

My mates brother was going to the casino and stopping out all night and then sleeping in bed all day, then a few years later i lend a tape and think it's all rubbish, then about a dozen plays later, i'm getting hooked....things like Donnie Burkes "Satifaction Guarenteed", Major Lance "The Beat", Yum Yums etc......

Started attending Clifton Hall early 80's, and finally plucked up courage to dance to my then favourite track James Lewis "Thats The Way" (c/up as you know, The Q on Hound), was about 17 then and have always tried to attend events through the following years sometimes more than others. Always loved collecting records, used to go to a local shop called Violet Mays where the Northern box was kept behind the counter, and just about got all those songs from that original tape from all those years back.

I was in Florida only last week and had a drink with Russ's uncle. Apparently he is sending him some text books for the course he is running in Wigan.

And is he still bitter about the fact that he never got the credit he deserved for sending Russ all those unknowns over?
