The Frank Minion on Vik that I play is 1956 I think and at West Hampstead we used to play Fats Waller Your Feet's Too Big but not for a proper dance more a group hug at the end of the night.
I agree and the other Van McCoy non 45 LP track Wonder What My baby's Doing Tonight is utterly brilliant too, i speculate as to why it was never a 45 in the notes and Maxine concurs to an extent.
At last it's the proper Wand 45, and it's funny that all other reissues since copied our audio and made exactly the same mistake. This is the first time the right take has been on CD.
I Want A Guarantee is purposefully a quite different equally good vocal take to the original that we put out as we thought it deserved an airing. Why Did I Choose You is a very good dancer that has never been heard before.
No they were passers by who decided to punch Winston, which was a bad move all round.
I can't remember the Ion incident at all but I hope it happened.
Putting off a tricky bit of work so I get that adrenalin rush when I realise I'm about to miss the deadline.
Just played Ace's discographer Peter Gibbon's copy of Floyd Barber on Symbol, it's very good but inbetween so many styles, Northern, mod R&B. Has it ever had any plays or action?
No it was Don't Jump Off The Roof Dad by Tommy Cooper or possibly Jack Douglas' version of Swanee River " Waaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy down upon the Swanee River"
blimey, that's good news about Ian.
Taffy would have been pretty young when he was DJing at the 1981/2 ones, he's younger than us and i was only 29 then.
actually now i think about it Jodie Daly was well fresh when she first hit the stage.
We did the early pre-100 Club years and will have a 100 Clubber out for the 30th Anniversary. Sony BMG are also doing their version with me for the series they do.
