I think you'll find you're wrong here Flynny, that picture takes up the full height of the Lp front cover, with a vertical brown strip either side. Having said that, I don't have the Lp in front of me but that's how I remember it the last time I played it. Or, are you just talking about the "Sing" logo?

She's definitely cuddly.
-
Cheers Russell, I think that book will be on my Christmas book list too.
-
Awesome!!! Thanks very much!!! Who's the guy with her?
-
If you mean Images on Google? Nah, I've tried there already, nothing but the one you see on my original posting, plus the one of her head and shoulders, which is just a blown up cut of the full body one to be found on Google, her Sing Lp and CD with friends. But if you can find any others, please pass them on to me. Thanks.
-
Oh, you beauty. Thanks ever so much!!! Do you have any more? She looks very young in this photograph. Much younger than the one that adorns her Sing Lp and CD with friends.
-
Ditto. There's gotta be some more photogrphs of her out there somewhere? Anybody??? She only recorded 13 tracks in all I think, 11 for Federal, with two of them being re-issued back to back on King, and two for Argo. Off on a slant for a moment, doesn't that mean she signed for Chess? In which case, I wonder if there might be an acetate or two out there without her name on it, like the one Joe Dutton's got? It's looking like her photographs are as few and far between as her recordings.
-
Thanks for the Bump!!! Whilst I'm on, I'd might as well ask again, anybody able to help?
-
Has anybody got any good quality pictures / photographs / scans of Tiny Topsy other that this one attached? If so, please PM me. Thanks.
-
As it happens, I'm going there soon but you'd have to be more specific as to where abouts?
-
And I'd like to start with as many (as I know for a fact that there aren't many) photographs of Tiny Topsy. But I'd appreciate pointers as to where I could go to find photographs of other R&B recording artists of a similar vein from the mid to late 50s and very early 60s. Cheers

Nope, Malc had no spare battery covers for a Sound Burger so, I'm back on the lookout . . . . . . . . can anybody help? Please PM me if you can. Denbo.
-
Yeah, found that site by tapping into the image you posted up of the Twin Singer 2 but can't see the images due to some kind of bloody Firewall here at work. I'll check the site out later tonight. Cheers.
-
That's brilliant. Thanks Flynny. Where did you find that image? Also, I remember the cassette configuration more at 90 degrees to that image with the top of the cassette nearest to the hinge and the recording head pointing in the direction of the turntable. Having said that, perhaps age has played tricks on my memory. :o)
-
Hi Flynny, Yeah, I've seen one of them too, the Sound Burger with a built in cassette player / recorder? I think it might have been Mick Smiths but I'm not certain. Have never met anybody else who even knows what I'm talking about, never mind someone else who has actually seen one. Thanks matey, was beginning to doubt my own sanity. :o)
-
Hey, I asked first.
-
Anybody out there with an old Sound Burger that no longer works who would like to part with the battery cover? Please PM me if you do. Thanks. Denbo.
-
Nobody?

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT, NO WAY IS THAT TRUE

1) 'Frador' - A mouth ulcer treatment applied using a purple coloured liquid from a small glass tube via a cotton bud stick and telling this poor gullible punter in the toilet whilst treating a couple of troublesome ulcers, that it was a 'new way' of taking amphetamines. Honest, it's true :lol: 2) Getting jumped on by 3 Coppers as I approached my car for using my Mother's Tax disk on my old clapped out Morris 1100. 3) Buying great British released records from the days of the Twisted Wheel and earlier for 50p and less. Bought a Billy Harner - What About The Music instrumental on UK Karma Sutra for £2!!!

1 - Alan Day (or was it Colin Curtis?) circa Mecca / Torch days - Great records but just as good was his clear voiced style of banter in between the records, keeping the audience informed as to what was being played and to what it was they were dancing their heads off to. 2 - Liverpool's Billy Butler circa Mardi Gras / Cavern days - Great records (mostly British) with a hilarious style of banter in between the records. 3 - Ian Levine - Just brilliant records!!! QED.

Denbo replied to Tony Foster's topic in Event Playlists - Reviews
Hi Mike, Was great to be introduced to you last night by Ste Cato, there seems to be so few Scousers on our little scene these days. I can see from your posting that you may not be too much into the R&B scene, but I hope I'm wrong. Anyhow, if you can make it down to the Gerard on the 14th August for the Rhythm Shack, you'll hear some great early 60s Soul too and we could catch up a little and chat without having to shout; was very loud in that small room last night. Take care. Denbo. -
Toys or Crystals?
-
How many of these have you got?

"Richard also talks about another occasion when he reversed his car over his record box (!!!!!) and trashed a copy of the very rare single containing the instrumental version of "What About The Music" - Billy Harner." I'm sure Richard told me once that it was just cracked, how badly, I can't remember. Let's hope it isn't actually "trashed".
