Oh God - where did this come from - Barrie you still look the same in 2010.....Never seen footage with original line up before..great posting - thank you thank you!!!!
All the pre -Island demos featuring Lew including "Denver" were released on a cd called "Canvey 2 Island" but its pretty hard to find now. They also appear on the compilation "DOING ANYTHING THEY WANNA DO" a cd on the anagram label.
I bought 'doing anything they wanna do' as you suggested and it does indeed include about 8 tracks including lew. they are so much better then the tracks without him (cause I've got some eddie and the hotrods other cds). Thanks for letting me know about this CS hotrods2008. x
Nice shirt, Barry. Goes to show that the Hot Rods were an English take on American - thanks to Ed Hollis' extensive record collection, e.g. J. Geils Band "Full house" live in Detroit LP and Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band "Live Bullet" DoLP.
Thanx, Skydog, the label who gave us "Metallic KO" and so many more top records ;)
Just awesome! - I saw this line up in the really early days and was gutted when Lew left - the early studio cuts with Lew were better than the eventual album - thanks for posting!
Saw these guys live at least a couple of times in '76 but never with Lew Lewis and consequently missed this particular "blues harp" rendition of "Get Out of Denver".
Well worth the wait is all I can say!
This channel is turning into one of my all time YouTube favourites.
Wish I had a T shirt that said Eddies Rods

Is that Lew Lewis though - I thought he'd left by the time they played the Marquee?
Thanks for replying by the way.
