And if there is additional archive footage that hasn't been seen would it be possible to get access to it?

Thanks for posting this interesting clip I know this is going over old ground, but is the Wigan clip about 4 mins into the Manchester feature from a different TV programme to the one I have posted below (which I thought was from a Something Else special on different dance clubs) and if so which programme? Also if the BBC or whoever did the Manchester piece are able to pull these clips from the archives, is there additional footage that hasn't been seen? It looks more like a proper night than the Something Else one which if I remember right was filmed during non-club hours

Nice version - like the vibes near the end, but not a patch on Flowers IMO File Flowere alongside Bobby Reed 'Time is right for love', or Richard Caiton 'Near you' - tunes that demand attention

Love this one that he co-wrote and played on:- From Al Robinson wiki:- Robinson continued to record in his own name and as a session guitarist. He moved to Los Angeles, and recorded "Let Me Down Easy", written by King Curtis, for Atco in 1967.[1] He also began playing with Dr. John, and appeared as a guitarist on the albums Babylon, Dr. John's Gumbo, and Hollywood Be Thy Name,[1][6] as well as co-writing several album tracks with Dr. John. As a solo performer, Robinson recorded for Harold Battiste's A.F.O. and Pulsar labels; one of his recordings for Pulsar, "Sho' Bout To Drive Me Wild", featured contributions from many New Orleans musicians including Battiste, Dr. John, Jessie Hill and King Floyd.[

Absolutely - someone should ask him again. I think his new book is just the Liverpool music scene (Eric's, etc)

Sorry yes - we didn't discuss figures but that was what he meant

I meant the 100+ that no-one has seen - only Francesco currently has access to them

This is one of a whole load of 'last night' 19/9/81 photos taken by Liverpool-based photographer Francesco Mellina which were shown at a do at the Wigan Arcade a few years ago but never published. Quite a few were on a BBC Lancashire website for ages (i.e. the one with Pat Brady, Gary Rushbrooke and RW on the stage, RW with his Wigan bowling shirt, etc) but it now seems to have disappeared. I emailed Franceso about them a few years ago and he said he has a couple of hundred which have never seen the light of day. He asked if I was interested in publishing them but of course on my own I wouldn't be able to raise the funds. Definitely a project there for someone though, or some kind of collective effort - would be great to see them all. He is on Facebook if anyone wants to contact him.

Attached Blackbeat article from issue 18 1983 with ML interview at Stoke, the night after Hinckley Wish I had been there! Cheers, Chris. Major Lance '82.pdf

Thanks Pete - some others do seem better quality when you look at reviews

Pete, also why wouldn't you use a portable such as this? Looks decent enough quality?

Thanks Pete - yes USB output so designed to do that - what would you recommend?

Thinking of buying one of these to transfer vinyl to ipod Can anyone tell me (forgive my technical inexpertise):- 1) The procedure for transferring vinyl to ipod in this way Have done it previously by burning vinyl to recordable audio CD then loading onto itunes - does this method bypass itunes? Is it relatively straight forward? 2) What loss of sound quality / how can you maximise sound quality Burning vinyl to audio CD as above then onto itunes / ipod results in a noticeable reduction in volume 3) Would you risk your rare vinyl on the Handytrax? Another post said the new Soundburgers had a poor quality stylus Advice appreciated Cheers, Chris.

Anyone else remember the Simon Soussan 1973 sales cassette John mentions under the Steinways write up? Interested to know what else was on it Or anyone still have a copy?

Thanks all, really interesting Isn't that block of flats to the left behind the Casino (bottom one of the three photos above) still there? In that case wouldn't the Casino have been further to the left than Debenhams?
