80 Minutes Of Unissued Northern Tracks To Listen To
Yeah this was an unissued Motown record which has the best intro on a record EVER - it's phenomenal. Then they start singing and it's not that great, but that intro alone should be played. I know where I got this from but not sure if it's "in the public domain", not that I care like...if I can find it I will enclose it here. If anyone wants to hear the show again, just say and I'll repeat it

Tony Colton - I Stand Accused
I don't understand this quote - 'when only the UK promo existed' - I had an issue throughout the 80's, bought it for £25 as an unknown. Bought a demo from Grammar School records in Rye in about 92 for £75. Swapped it with Richard Domar for something or other. The issue is way harder than the demo but the demo would go for £200 or so. The Merseybeats did a great version of the same song on Fontana, much faster. Also, Elvis Costello did a good version of it on Get Happy.

If Anyone Fancies Tuning In Today

Dusty Wilson - It's Going To Be A Tragedy
I apologise for saying that this was bland and boring the other week. I've played it 3 times on the radio now and about 10 times on the cd player and it's a fantastic track. I'm sorry
