Dave T definetly had it covered. For some reason I have 'the Ringleaders', in my head as the c/u name.

Dont remember Pat playing it, but he could well have done. It was one of those tracks that had a little more endurance than others. ie it didnt just get played a few times and dropped.

I can remember being at an alldayer in a Cheltenham hotel, the Sunday after a Stafford niter, and begging Dave to play it so I could go home to bed. He saved it til his last record whistling.gif:D:D:lol::D

Whispering Shadow - Stop the world / (You gotta watch the ) Fog - Mr "D's" Records K-3078

It's in stereo, so it might be a 70's recording! "Fog" is funky and crap!

In the Sounds section / Out and about / Pat Brady 1985 # 6, first record

They pop up every now and then on lists, more than ebay; I've seen it between £20 & £40 in recent times.

Yeah, remember it well from Stafford, First night it got played about three times, pickle was spinning out of control to it as I remember (bless him), think it was Dave Thorley and Pat Brady that played it.

I've got a copy (not for sale though I'm affraid) Dont think a paid a lot for it, can't really remember even buying it, but a brilliant track.

Never seen it for sale, but Manship has it in his book at £30.00

Hope you get a copy real soon

Andy

Pat and I had a copy and both played at the same time at Stafford. I swapped mine later as a straight swap, wait for it.

The Classics-So glad I found you-Yan-G :)

Won't say who it was, but the guy bugged me for a month to sell it to him, them came up to me at Stafford and said would you take this for it :)

sorry if this is a stupid question, but is this like a rock record? I don't know anything about rock music, but don't the electric prunes have a song like this or something like that? if so, is it a cover of that song?

Not such a daft question Mate, I know what you mean. The structure of the song is not exactly yer conventional soul/r 'n b format, more like a late 60's/early 70's rock/soul fusion kinda thang going on. There's a sound clip of it a few posts down from the top.

Dave T - Jesus, what a swap! :unsure:

its a bay area group with some of the members from jesse james' dynamic four. there was also a nightclub out here in the 60s/70s called Mr D's. however im not sure if the label is named after the club or one of the guys in the band. i guess i dont really know any more about it than that. nice record. does not pop up out here in the bay. small pressing im assuming like most things out here.

Here's a scan of the record for your information.

At a guess it's the writer and producers label - Mickey Durio.
