  1. Sad news, back in the 80's Dave asked Pete Lawson and me to help with articles for "Groovin a-la Go-Go", which marked his return to the scene, several hilarious times spent putting it together, to say it didn't set the scene alight would be an understatement but, it was very, very funny and after it's lack of sucess Dave disappeared for a few years again, tales of Daves' antics are legion and mostly unprintable, a true character and one-off and one I'm glad to have known. RIP Dave
  2. Yeah, Ivor developed a strange habit of doing that, I remember he woke up behind the bar once as well
  3. I agree, Musette copy is far, far rarer

  14. Soussan used Monarch in the 70's, so this is where is where the confusion arises, you need to be aware of the delta numbering system etc., etc, covered on RSF and here several times, see the recent Tomangoes thread for instance.
  15. Terrible vocals, nice backing, worth about $3.00 in real money

  19. Peter Guaralnic's (can't be arsed checking the spelling),"Dream Boogie" about Sam Cooke, well written and researched haven't finished it yet but, worth a punt
