Dadio0001 thanks for the extra info about my band it is all correct. It also reminded me I left out that the bass Player Bill D. played a vintage hoffner bass, and was an excellent blues harp player. ..Dave M. "Goliath"
The drummers name is David Peterson.He was from the Boston area and was one kickass player.He was also a founding member of the band.He played on a vintage set of Rogers with oversized toms(14,15 and 18 inch)Wow,glad to hear that it is being played across the pond.That band gave its all at their shows.Most nights were standing room only.Thanks for posting.
In the 90's the band started to write and perform originals. We were very close to signing a record contract when the band split up. There has never been a reunion and I have no idea where the other members are living.
Our biggest gig was in front of 10,000 people at Quincy Market in Boston Mass. playing at the Jerry Lewis telethon. We also made several local TV appearances.
Bill D. the bass player (far right) sang lead on Heart full of soul.
Bill G. the rythmn guitarist (2nd from left) sang lead on Gimme Gimme
and myself sang lead on Dirty Water which was usually our closing number or our encore song.
There were 2500 copies pressed. I have seen them rarely on oldies record websites selling for $8 to $15. The record was mostly played on college stations around Boston Massachusetts.
Some were sold, some were given away as prizes and some were used as demos.
The band was very popular in the clubs around new england.
We were known as the house band at Cappy's Copper Kettle in Lowell Mass.
great to hear from you,im very surprised to hear from you. i googled hours but cant find any info about your band , so i posted it here to find some answers,yeahhhh out of obscurity.
crazy , i found this great 7'' record 10thousands of miles away from wilmington on a small fleamarket in bonn germany.
I was the lead guitarist / keyboardist of this band. From left to right: Dave M. aka "goliath" , Bill G. rythmn guitar , Dave P. drums and Bill D. bass. We played all over New England from 1980 to 1996. This 45 was recorded in 1981 at Destiny studio in Wilmington Massachusetts. We most frequently played in Lowell Mass. at Cappy's Copper Kettle. --- This is my sisters YT account but she will let me know if there are any comments or questions I can answer.

On Gimme Gimme good lovin' you will hear my 1960's VOX super continental organ.
The harp on Dirty Water was played by the bass player.
The lead guitar on Heart full of soul was a Gibson ES 345 played through a "Morley" fuzz/wah pedal, into an Ampeg V4 Amp.
