OK THIS IS A FUNNY ONE
WE HAD JUST FINISHED A GIG IN GRENWICH LONDON
WE RECIEVED A CALL TELLING US THAT WE HAD A SPOT ON PEBBLE MILL AT ONE IF WE COULD GET TO BIRMING HAM FOR THE LIVE LUNCHTIME TV SHOW
WE LEFT LONDON STRAIGHT AWAY AND DROVE TO BIRMINGHAM
NO SLEEP FOR THE BAND AND THEN A TOTALLY LIVE PERFORMANCE
ON LIVE TV
THE SOUND MAN FOR THE SHOW HAD NO IDEA AT ALL
BUT THE WORST THING WAS THE AUDIENCE
30 OAPS ON A COACH TRIP

  • Always thought this very remanicent of sqeeuze

  • @GRAHAM2109 Donny Macleod- died back in '84 aged only 52

  • the name of the lead singer was paul. before the pinkees,he played in a basildon based group called fantasy. they were resident band at the bull,vange essex(part of basildon).i used to go each week to see them play,and after getting to know paul,persuaded him to give me guitar lessons. not sure what paul got up to after the pinkees.does anyone know?

  • I went to see the Pinkees at the Red Lion in Brentford - good set as I remember.

  • I used to like that presenter. Can't remember his name now though

  • Lol. That's my Dad. Did you get good grades?

  • Blimey this takes me back! 1982. I still have the 7" single somewhere. Great tune, real Beatles-meets-Squeeze vibe going on here. Did the guy playing the sunburst Stratocaster go on to play in the Outfield?

  • They used to play every week in a pub in Basildon. They came from the Essex area I think. Once they had the hit they stopped playing at the pub and the new group was rubbish.

  • Brilliant memories of first love lol

  • I remember this one very well, but could never remember the name of the group, hence it has taken me so long to track down on here.

    One of the best songs of that year in my opinion. It was a well written song, had some very nice guitars on it, & was played by a band that could do it live!

    It sounded great on medium wave back then, & still sounds just as good today :)

    I even played this one at an audition I went to for a guitar job. I didn't get it, but what fun ;)

    Thanks :)
