I have Jack's version, on cassette, it is great; the full sound we love! I will try to get a copy of it put out somehow but I don't have the facilities to upload yet. The blue lyres version I only ever heard once and had recorded it but lost it years ago; I know what you mean by pressing play, worse than that is my party piece: accidentally hitting "record" instead of "play", leaving a nice little gap in an otherwise perfect dub!

[mic33george]

Yes done that and usually when i was rewinding a fav to hear it over again.Another disaster was a friend taping daniel o donnell over a good dbd tape,and leaving several tapes on public transport in the days of walkmans!!85scampi may have that Payne version.

[scoterpool]

Jack Payne's version of this is the best ever but I've another version on an eclipse record (can't remember who that is at the moment). The Blue Lyres did a great version which I heard on Allan Dell's programme about 20 years ago and am still waiting to hear it again! Anyone got a copy?

[mic33george]

I dont think i have heard the Payne version,though i can see it would be very good!I used to tape the dance band days but dont recall the blue lyres version-may be one of the times i pressed play instead of record,something i did regularly!!!

Wich needles are you using?

I hear no scratch! Great machine you bought.

Got a mail from a fellow in the UK who has the same model as mine (524), so we are not the only lucky guys.

[mic33george]

Scampi is right,Laubscher needles that a kind you tuber sent when i began uploading.I wonder if this other 524 is in as good condition as yours?Mine had a good polish yesterday,like a mirror!

[chloeis4]

anyone have ethel waters singing this?

[scoterpool]

Nightmare scenarios! I remember the first time I ever heard "Just a gigolo" by Jack Hylton's Orch, I recorded the programme (I also recorded the Allan Dell programmes!) and took it on my walkman to work, I had heard it once going into work then someone nicked the walkman with the tape in!

[fredflange1]

Sounds like Stan to me too.

[85scampi]

I suspect these are old stock British 'Songster' Needles or Laubscher, Pierre.
