I Dj'd with these a couple of times when we booked them. We had 1 hellanight I remeber with The Purple Heart/Secret Affair/Killometers/The Lambrettas/The Chords. I dont think there was another time they all got together. I was on all their mailing lists so got Demos of all their stuff and test pressings all signed by them. Got a couple of cassettes recorded in the studios. Lovely times.

grow up i'm allowed to leave a bad comment if i want without being swore at by some old foul mouth dick, and im sure i have an opinion on what good music is and isnt
I can understand, I got the a Circles 45" from the Flea pit in Carnaby St back in the 80's, I've got nothing on cd and have just found utube and am telling all my mates?
I've got two singles by the Circles and all four tracks Opening up and Billy, Angry Voices and Summer Nights are great songs and as good as anything that came from the mod revival bands. I'm from Dudley and though I bought the records I was too young for the gigs. Mick Walker a Mod legend! (nearly anyway)
Saw these guys at the `Club Lafayette` in Wolverhampton circa 1980. I cannot believe that this is on here - Well done for posting this. i bought their single and seem to remember it being called `running around in circles`
@harrynewsome "opening up" was the single i remember with "Billy" on "B" side, its was on Graduate records from Dudley grad5 maybe who incidently "discovered" UB40 and recorded their earlier work and first album "signing off"
Lead singer Mick is a window cleaner in Brierley Hill. Roger teh Bass player is living in Wall Heath and the Drummer Keith is in Telford somewhere. i had the pleasure of producing their reunion video in 2000 filmed at The Shed, Brierley Hill.

Saw these guys live at Walsall town hall - believe they recorded most of their stuff at a recording studio on Tong Street in the Chuckery.
