someone was asking about other sparkles tracks - besides 'no friend of mine' and the b-side, i'm not sure if any have been released on compilations, these two are ripped from original vinyl (not by me).....in case you where wondering about footage, it had been reversed and slowed down, straightened and sped up, and then reversed again.

  • It seems that I read a story on the internet 2-3 years ago that Lucky had killed himself but I can't confirm that. Gary P Nunn lives in Austin, Texas most likely. He played with Jerry Jeff Walker back in the late 70's or early 80's and the last time I saw him(Gary) was at a concert in Phoenix, Az. I will try to find out how to contact as I still know people in our hometown of Brownfield,Tx. Someone around there should know something. You could probably even find out through Austin City Limits.

  • @uzziburn yeah, i've always been surprised no one got round to a sparkles compilation, there's enough on the singles, maybe there's the odd out take laying around....

  • Just noticed you are in UK. 25 lb gave me a hint to look!! Don't even have a symbol on my keyboard for your money! The machine I looked at here was a very nice one @ $300.00. I didn't want to spend the money on it yet but may soon. I actually grew up with Gary P Nunn and the first time I saw he and the Sparkles play was at a local talent show at the high school.They were not competing. I was blown away as they were the first rock and roll band I ever saw live.

  • @uzziburn cool, you should have taken a few photos, band pictures are pretty scarce, any idea what they are up to now? i had a music journalist contact me last year trying to trace them for an interview....

  • If you happen upon one that would be great. I'd have to get a turntable myself as I don't even have one anymore. Best buy has a turntable to mp3 or iphone for $300.

  • @uzziburn yeah, you can actually buy turntables that convert to mp3  here for about £25, i just got in the habit of using this early sixties portable player, i should really invest in one...

  • that is my dance groove shit!!!!!!! i would die if i made a party and everybody danced this fucking shittttt its toooo goood!!!!!!!

  • They dance funny :$

  • What a fantastic song! I just found out about this new band for me. I love the beat. It's a pity there is so little on the internet about this band. Can anyone tell me more about the footage in the clip? Is it from one of their live performances?

  • @uzziburn Lucky Floyd did definitely not kill himself. He is my grandfather and he lives in Dallas, TX with his wife Pam.

  • oh, yeah...pretty sure those kids want to...ya know...."do it".
