Phil Gill and Roger Carey discussing The Jukes LP
Phil Gill… I was trying to sell him a copy.
Pete Prescott… I’ve got one of those !
Ken Hatch… Pete, I think we all have …… I know where there are more going cheap as well
Kev Towner… Pete, who hasn’t?
Roger Carey… A good picture, fair time back I guess! Phil was the first person I met at school who actually had an electric guitar -a rare thing amongst 13 year olds in the late sixties! Many years later Phil replaced me as the bassist in “The Jukes” (I gigged regularly with them from 1983-1985)… He did this album we are discussing!
The Jukes – Live At The Palace Bars Hastings 1987
supplied by Andy Knight
featuring Andy Bannister, Andy Knight, Phil Gill and Rick Mead.
Nicholas Randall… Jukes LP live at palace recorded Hastings sept 1987 at pig in paradise
Dont know much about the band but its amazing album
Phil Gill… they were a bunch of drunken ruffians who set up a tape machine at a gig and made a record out of the resulting noises. (And thanks for endorsing the album!)
Nick Foster… I’ve got an original cassette recording of the album entitled “Proposed Jukes Album – 2nd Generation copy. The band were very popular in and around Hastings in the 80’s. Andy Bannister’s party trick was to hold the last note of Handbags & Gladrags while the band played the chorus again. Always sounded amazing and the audience cheered him on but when you listen to the recording you realise just how difficult it was for him.
Great times at the Pig in the 80’s.
Pete Prescott… I’ve got this album ! Great stuff !
Phil Gill… Pete, I’ve got a few too.
Alex Knight… Phil, I’ve now got it electronically!! Along with the few vinyls!! Absolutely loved this album!
Phil Gill… Glad you like it Alex, I think there’s a certain energy to it which we were able to capture on the night.
Alex Knight… it’s an amazing album, and possibly the best version of handbags and gladrags I’ve heard. Take me shake me was also a personal favourite of mine!
Alan Esdaile… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYkIU9uGhTg&t=394s
Ann Gill… I won one in a raffle, I said they could re draw as I already had it 
. Great album though
Ken Hatch… I think the odd vinyl might still be available from Andy Knight
John Martyn – Live At Leeds University Album 1975
supplied by Jim Breeds
Jim Breeds…..Melody Maker 13th September 1975 and John Martyn is selling his Live In Leeds album from his home in Coburg Place, Hastings. Island records refused to release the LP but allowed John to do so independently and even gave him an Island catalogue number to use. Production difficulties delayed the release and by the time the orders were ready to be fulfilled he was back out on tour and most of the work fell to Beverley. My copy of the LP is number 3261. This advert is from the book that accompanies the box set “John Martyn – The Island Years”.
John Wilde….I worked with Beverly. Packaging and mailing records, visits to the post office 3 times a day. For anyone that is interested I sat in on the Inside Out recordings where I did the album art which was used in the gatefold cover. A real honour and extraordinary pleasure hanging out with such legendary artists.
Jim Breeds…. I read that he was not at all happy with this ad when he saw it, so perhaps he didn’t draft it?
John Wilde…..Yes pretty sure this was not Johns style. I was his roadie for those dates and then went to europe with him. It was an eye opener and great fun. We know what an original John was and to see him recording with Steve Winwood, Chris Wood (Traffic), Bobby Keyes, Remi Kebaka (Traffic) and Danny Thompson was a dream come true to me. I will never forget it.
Tony Davis… We should get the council to put something up on the address perhaps a blue plaque
Jim Breeds… said similar in the J. M. FB group, but the council wouldn’t be able to help, I don’t think. I think it would be down to the likes of us to try to do it.
Andy James Long… Tony, I’ve been in touch with John Bownas with regard to just this. He’s going to look into it and find out how to go about it. If I hear anything back from him about it I’ll let you know, it’s something I’ve thought about for quite some time!
Jim Breeds… It’s come up before, possibly in this group. The Biddy plaque in West Street is a good example of the community getting it done. We could tap into that expertise.
Tony Davis… Failing that I suppose another possibility is John’s favourite watering hole….The Nelson
The Age Of Atlantic compilation 1970
The Age Of Atlantic. This one got a lot of plays.
Side One
“Comin’ Home” (Bramlett/Clapton) – Delaney & Bonnie (with Eric Clapton)
“Tonight” (MC5) – MC5
“Black Hearted Woman” (Allman) – Allman Brothers Band
“Survival” (Anderson) – Yes
“I’m a Good Woman” (Ozen) – Cold Blood
“Whole Lotta Love” (Page/Plant/Jones/Bonham) – Led Zeppelin
Side Two
“Termination” (Brann/Dorman) – Iron Butterfly
“The Last Time” (Jagger/Richards) – Dada
“Communication Breakdown” (Page/Plant/Jones/Bonham) – Led Zeppelin
“Wash Mama Wash” (Rebennack) – Dr John
“Need Love” (Stein/Bogert/Martell/Appice) – Vanilla Fudge
“Broken Arrow” (Young) – Buffalo Springfield
John Storer… This was the first sampler album I ever bought and I absolutely loved it. Only bought it because it retailed at 99p but became an album I played for many years afterwards. I’d heard of some of the bands on it but Zep were the only band I’d actually ever heard before. The intro to “Comin’ Home” is one of the ringtones on my iPhone and “Broken Arrow” started me on an enduring love of Buffalo Springfield – one of the few bands from the last century I still listen to regularly. Dada’s cover of “the Last Time” is one of my favourite covers – prefer it to the original. Now have the compilation on CD and it still gets the occasional play 44 years on. Dada also featured Elkie Brooks
Sarah Harvey… Got this album….and loved this track Tonight MC5.
Terry Huggins… I had this, but gave it to one of my kids. Cold Blood never really made it in the UK, but are still playing and quiet well known over the pond. I think Lydia Pense is the only original member. They don’t tour overseas very often because of the cost of keeping such a large band on the road. Da Da evolved into Vinegar Joe and featured Elkie Brooks and Buffalo Springfield featured Neil Young and Steve Stills. Vanilla Fudge reformed and still play occasionally.
Mick O’Dowd… Delaney & Bonnie track was my fave from this album
Andy Qunta.… Delaney & Bonnie always loved this track since I first heard it played over the speakers at lunchtime at good old Hastings College of F.E.! Heard a lot of good music in that situation actually!
Mark Sims…..I remember this album.
Martyn Baker… One of my first albums. Loved it!
Mark Gilham… Bought it for the MC5 track alone. Long gone afraid!
Terry Huggins…. Not sure what Dr, John’s doing now, but he’s no spring onion.
Jon McCallion… Yes still got it, and it still plays perfectly
Patrick Lewis… Still have it. Great album, best tracks: Survival by Yes and Broken Arrow by Buffalo Springfield.
Tony Court-holmes… can you get it on cd?
Who still has the album Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield?
Martin Richter… didn’t the producer live in George street ?
Phil Thornton… That would be Tom Newman – he also lived in Croft rd for a while.
Pete Fairless… Somewhere…. won’t be looking for it in a hurry, though!
Peter Thomson… I think so, as we didn’t throw any vinyl out unless we had a double up on marriage (ooh er). This would be in very good condition as it hardly ever made it to the turntable.
Angela Frances Gardner… I’ve still got my copy on vinyl or as we used to call them my LP!
Mike Curtis… I bought a copy of Camembert Electronique, by Gong, from Cass Music in Eastbourne. Took it home, put it on the Garrard SP25 mk11 turntable, through the Trio amp into some Wharfdale Linton 2 speakers, and out came side 1 of Tubular Bells! Side 2 was Gong.
Chris Meachen… That’s probably worth money if you’ve still got it..
Mike Curtis… I sure have. But I stupidly sold a demonstration copy of “Love Me Do” by The Beatles for £100 about 25 years ago. Only 250 made and they fetch £10k now…
Jo Avery… Yep, but this one is my favourite…
Nigel Goodman… Vinyl, picture disc and CD
The Tony Macaulay and John MacLeod Song Book LP supplied by Pete Prescott
Pete Prescott… I did a session for him once. Mike Hatchard booked me for it. (Mike was incredibly kind to me on that session )Tony Macaulay was fascinating. Lots of great stories. So many hits he had written ! We were demoing songs for the proposed musical of Goodnight Sweetheart. (blitz meets cockney ) the writers of the tv show visited us, amazing session. I realised I can’t sing like a cockney (gaw blimey guvner! Wantcha tummy rubbed !) BBC 2 came and interviewed him while we were there.
Fleetwood Mac – Rumours album – who had this album?
Jane Dorsett… yes, I had this LP.
Eric Peckham… I did. Great album.
Joan Crowhurst… Yes I had it .. still is one of my favourite ever albums 
Leigh Wieland-Boys… Still have it. Years ago (over 30) I read somewhere that a record collection was only complete if you had Rumours by Fleetwood Mac & Bridge over troubled waters by Simon & Garfunkle – that was a proud moment for me as I had both 
Sandie Carlyon… Me still have it.
Virginia Davis… Still have it
Keith Blizard… Yep, think I still have 
Mandy Wright… Still have it 
😝 xx
Despo Hawkins… Still have mine
Jackie Clarke… love this.
Jennie Tocock… Still have mine too
Ted Woodwood… yes on vinyl and cd
Tony Davies… We have two copies here, mine and Lisa’s but I reckon her copy is in better condition…
Mike Wright… Yep!
Dave Nattress… Got it on vinyl. Jane and Leigh on the same page again. Bexhill’s Continental famous dancing girls. xxxx

Old Grey Whistle Test LP – who’s got this? Any memories of the Old Grey Whistle Test?
Andy Qunta… This was a really excellent show! Bands playing live! Whispering Bob Harris adding intelligent comments. The good old days! 😉
Peter Thomson… Not the album but I do have a DVD box set. Astonishing catalogue when viewed back to back.
Pete Prescott… I watched the first one with my mother. Not sure she was as impressed asI was ha ha ! I think it was 1971.
The first song up was “warming up the band ” by Head Hands and Feet. I tried to never miss out each week.
I remember watching Claire Hamill on it. Great show. Andy Q and Wesley were on it with Hazel O’Connor I think.
Andy Qunta… Yes, we were on with Hazel towards the end of 1980 I think. Great experience!
Chris Barrett… I see Claire Hamill was on it on it 4/4/1972. Can you remember what you sang?
Mark Randall… Every New Years Eve special/compilation, they ALWAYS played SteelyDdan’s ‘Reelin’ in ..” and soddin’ LS’s Freebird. Every year!!!!
