    Hi Ian, it's a super project but I don't think you should have listed me as assisting in the compiling. All I did was put you right on a couple of licensors. You and Timmy should get the glory.

    You would have heard me playing Jimmy Fraser vocal and Kurt Harris at the 100 Club before you'd started DJing Sooty

    That's a terrific biography Lorraine and Dave, thanks very much. Everyone who has met Maxine says what a wonderful person she is too with a wicked sense of humour and also values everyone she meets. The video she did with Elaine Constantine in NYC for the Cleethorpes video in the 90s shows her fun side as well as her talent

    Hi Mark September 14 was probably an early release date, most projects get delayed a bit, it was released last Monday. Ady

    Stephen T one of those 45s got held up, can't remember which. T'other came out in the batch at the end of last year

    Yes the best selling comps we've ever done, only Mod Jazz splits off Vol 4 from the other three in sales. In case you missed it we will be doing a Vol 5 later this year. All tracks Dave wanted for the series and hopefully we can find his words on the songs for the sleevenotes.

    In the late 70s/early 80s I actually found two copies in a shop in Norwalk, along with 6 copies of the Jackie Day Australian EP and some Spanish ZZ Hill and Etta James, obviously the library copies from the legitimate licensees chucked out by Modern at some stage.

    Steve, Kevin did the introduction. Dave dictated the sleevenotes to me when I visited him in Rotherham shortly before his death. Ady

    Yes, hard to tell the difference, but someone on here will know.

    Has Facebook invaded?

    That's very true Mike and a lot of his best stuff had been borrowed over the previous 40 years. Raking up and recrimination won't particularly help but it might give the impetus to put together something of a tribute or at least document what is left which will spur on other contributions to Dave's work. He certainly gave stuff away or lent it out on a whim.

    Looking May now, pretty definite and some super photos have turned up too

    My mate said 4 questions and I told him the answers not knowing the questions. Got 2 out of 4

    It's a shame they didn't use a Betty Fikes/Gouche track, she was involved

    Indeed, let's get the film nuts onto it

    Thanks for that information. The whole dispersion of his possessions was chaotic. His LPs went to Scotland and were subsequently sold. I've got a file of censorship letters and a couple of nice Motown telegrams. I'll contact the museum and arrange to check out the boxes, give them relevant stuff from me and discuss what should be done.

    I doubt it but I bet he was on the undercard of some rock gigs that nay have been filmed
  19. Ady Croasdell
    Sorry for the confusion Mal, I'm good at that. It's as stated on the EP, the previously unreleased on vinyl 'I'll Be A Soldier Boy' same backing track as Bobby's 'Too Much'. I was flippantly suggesting I should have gone with the one in the ad to cash in on it. Cheers Ady
  20. Ady Croasdell
    I was but we planned the EP a long time ago before the ad which was as usual at short notice
  21. Ady Croasdell
    We are and they want me and you to dance to it for TOTP
  22. Ady Croasdell
    I chose the wrong Bobby Angelle track for that then!
  23. Ady Croasdell
    I'd not heard that one, from Louisiana originally, its all in the Soul Of Money CDs
  24. Ady Croasdell
    Bobby Angelle's family has made a few bob, along with a certain record company that will put some of the dosh to licensing new masters and maybe finding a couple of unheard dancers for us all to enjoy. Now eat your cereal up.

    Is the Bil Lou the same as the Polo or a different recording? Ady
