Glad to see someone is still enjoying my old copy of I Have No Choice actualy got movie footage of this disc being signed by the lady herself in her kitchen where she and her daughter then went on to do a quick rendition of the song for myself Andy(Tats) Taylor and Rob Wigley what a pleasure that was.Gilly and Nicola

You must have an excellent filing system Mr Chalky (smile)

Your bang on with that lot Russ and ill add one if you dont mind.Chris King putting that Ric Tic revue on some people turned up just to prove it was bollocks and they found to their delight it really was happening.Who would have the balls to chance that lot and in doing so paved a way for other promoters to follow suite and arnt we so lucky to have seen these obscure artists grace our stages to say something that America forgot to do and thats THANK-YOU you fine foxy things.

For what its worth would anyone agree with me that T J Williams on Josie shares a very simlar base line to Just like the weather ? Gilly

Fiak he was a bit of a lad in his day,remember Den Mac telling me when he and Fi were leant against a pub wall on a saturday afternoon and along came 2/3 Man U fans,Fi said these are them and proceded to fill em in.Den just stood and shook his head in amazement.Fiaks son has done him proud by continuing the familys carpet business.Can say i always got on with Fi and i really did like him.Gilly

My old copy of Melvin Davis I Must Love You looked just like the issue but had promo/dj copy (cant remember) printed in small type,never knew if it was a hard #?

Cant help you im afraid but can understand why your after a copy,i used to play it some 20 yrs ago and its still a mental record,never seen many about now you might think it would be common with having a well recorded A side.good luck Gilly and Nicola

Dont try and throw people off the scent Simon or should i say Susan.All the very best your friend Nicola

Good stuff mate,enjoyed it propper.Gilly

What a great story,you have been well rewarded and i think blessed for all your hard work.Thanks for putting it up.Gilly and Nicola

Yet another sad loss to a great and talented person within the music industry.God bless

Ive got Sam live at Cleos Derby 1976 (i think) playing Gwen Owens,Joe Cook,Nate Evans,Jobell Orchestra the Quality is bad but you can still here that magic in Sams mic introductions.I can still remember recording it on one of those poxy heavy on the HP2s machine.

or get Nicola to hit them,pinching records or anything for that matter is a no no.

Cant help you Paul but i remember they were fookin funny "he crossed the Andes on the back of a frog"

Dont see Spivs name on the poster,i remember he did a few spots at the venue.Gilly and Nicola

The Jewels Oppertunity Dimension. Jimmy James Help Yourself

Remember myself and 2/3 others getting thrown out of a Cats all-dayer by the bouncers after spending the previous hour in the office whilst they decided our fate for being naughty.Two opptions i recall.1call the police in to sort it,2they kindley offered to kick the shit out of us.We did eventally leave with no problems but it was touch and go for a little while.Gilly

Got the book just started to read and its looking good,go and get yourselves a copy

Remember going at least once and maybe twice,as for anything else i dont recall.Gilly

I remember going to a Doncaster Bailys 24 hr marathon many years ago,floods hampered the journey all the way from our starting point of Derby.On arrival the clubs managers and door staff were reluctent to let us in but Mary waved a magic wand distracted the staff and in we went.Thanks Mary.Gilly

Nice words indeed i must clarify that my involvement was only to help get the project started,any ongoing credit stays with Ace/Kent, Ady C and of course Dave Hamilton.Gilly

May i say i was in this at the begining having been a friend of Dave Hamilton(thanks uncle Popcorn)for a number of years and when Dave passed on i wanted to be involved in making sure that a life times work wasnt going to be trashed or fall into the wrong hands.Dave had left a wife and family behind and they needed to be looked after just as Dave had gone out of his way to take care of me.I have to admit that despiite the mass of tapes that lined his basement studio walls im amazed and delighted that the Dave Hamilton story still gives up its secrets for all to enjoy and because ACE/KENT do a propper all round and legal product package the dear Mrs Hamilton should find daily life that little bit easier.Thank-you Dave and thank-you Ady.
