Yes Brian Dont suppose we will ever get to the bottom of it, certainly not the Bowls Club themselves, as they are a great bunch to work with (very accomodating) and the truth is it was them who approached me ref. doing the Alldayer in the first place. So they are equally as dissapionted. I have taken the advice of a long standing and respected promoter mutually known to ourselves and along with Len and all the other Soul in the Bowl supporters " I am gonna rise above it" and focus on the nights we have to look forward to. All the best mate

Happy to report that the official public launch of the new Salatio range of shoes will take place at our Soul in the Bowl night Rushden Northants on 12th Jan . 2013 (details of this night in events talk) . Although some have already purchased theirs, this is the first time they will be on public display. There will be samples of all colours and as Midlands agent for Salatio Shoes I have secured a 10% discount for anyone purchasing or ordering on the night. If anyone wants to purchase now and ensure their choice of size colour is there to be collected on the night take a look at the website and pm me . I will ensure if they are instock, they are there on the night so you can pick them up and still qualify for 10% https://www.solatio.co.uk/hello-world/ All the best Jem

He did make me some nice bespoke panels for my race car though ...sorry off topic

Was this more of a Mod tune ? like it a lot, but not one i remember hearing much on the Northern scene but then i dint really get into it till late 70s

But did any of them have female part time or other backing singers

And another one for the "dancers" not neccessarily the collectors

Fantastic LOVE IT!! played to a full dance floor at a packed allnighter with all the claps in time ...back in the day ...my youth and proud of it .

Love Instrumentals always have..wether fashionable or not, I personally think in some cases the backing track sometimes carries a poor vocal either way essential part of any record personally. I prefer the instrumental of Betty Boo and Ronnie Mcneir Sitting in my class the latter I think is just to cute! both have great Detroit arrangements though a pleasure to listen to in their own right. On topic "Used to be cool" distinctly rememember this being a monster tune in its day, still have a tape i recorded at Wirrina Allnighter circa 1978 with people (including me) chanting ESPERANTO! when the record pauses two thirds the way through I played it as end record at last Soul in Bowl...cleared the floor ah well you gotta try, havent given up gonna try Harry Betts, Fantastic Plastic Machine next time.........Cheese is the new cooool !

Blokes can get pretty high

Many thanks to all those that made an offer . The highest was £160. and was sold for that. Thanks again Jem

Agree dont think there was a female backing singer but then i wasnt there always thought was all male group

Hi wouldnt normally do this but I know very little about this record, bought a small collection and this was in it. A Keb Darge old spin reputedley ? not in J.M. guide found a couple on popsike that sold 5 years back and someone informed me one was advertised about a year ago for £200. So im looking for the best offer over £100. gonna leave it open untill Sunday 8.00pm then if no offers put it on ebay. If you interested just pm me with offer...no catch! best offer buys it but as always only offer what you want to pay. Record is in vg++ condition clean labels, the clip is not from my record and sorry about clip sound quality . The record itself plays loud and clear. Thanks for taking a look ...Jem
