1980 not much info out there as this single is very obscure and has only recently become known to collectors of the genre posted by trey lindsay at 5 54 00 pm 1 comments 18 november 2009 revolver one one is two northern songs 1 one one is two 2 nobody i know 1979 rox recording company b1 goodbye b2 tip of my tongue 1979 rox recording company the one one is two single has been a top want of my girlfriend for a couple years it s been on sale over on the ldk site for quite a while but we both agreed it was a bit out of our price range saved ebay searches and constant internet browsing never materialized another copy so i after a year of waiting i broke down an bought it for her birthday here s what ldk had to say revolver were actually a band called black maria popular on the merseyside circuit and with one of future liverpool new psych ers the cherry boys in the ranks who were rechristened revolver for this lennon mccartney covers project in 1979 there s a whole lp of this stuff snappily called northern songs this one s probably pretty representative of revolver s ouevre take a listen to one one is two and you ll understand when i say that i was a little reluctant to give this gift but as luck would have it not one week later my friend atsushi gave me the northern songs lp as a gift not only does include both songs from the single but 15 more lennon mccartney penned tunes that they never actually recorded themselves plus great liner notes and a cool 2 panel insert definitely worth tracking down posted by trey lindsay at 12 45 00 am 2 comments 10 november 2009 de

recorded their only 45 in april of 1979 this amazing two sider was pressed and privately released on the bands own strolling bone label in an edition of 500 copies band members were dom o riley guitar

re gonna make an exception here and announce an official re release of this record early next year it s too good to keep secret posted by jeremy at 9 36 00 pm 5 comments 05 november 2009 cramp she doesn t love me b w suzy lie down b she doesn t love me a suzy lie down rip off records rip 007 1979 cramp were from portrush northern ireland and released their sole single on george doeherty s rip off label in 1979 cramp were richard toadie todd vocals tim o hara lead guitar nigel mccomb bass declan service rhythm guitar colin mcdowell drums and as an extra treat here s an interview we did with richard and tim sing sing ss can you speak briefly about how you met and who your earliest influences in cramp were tim o hara to i recall our first meeting at declan s house in queen s park i was not sure if toadie was a genius or just plain mad but after that we used to rehearse in some weird places ray kennedy s billiard hall and nigel s dad s stockroom to name two our influences in cramp were of course mainstream punk the pistols clash etc but we did do a rather nice reggae song tribute which toadie will hopefully remember we also liked the new wave stuff like joe jackson the buzzcocks and the ruts richard toadie todd rt it was a bit strange at first singing and jumping around in a garage in front of 3 complete strangers i only knew colin at first but looking back i suppose that was pretty normal for me in every way ss when were your first lives shows and can you describe them to the live gigs were quite something as i recall toadie was quite a presence on stage and knew how to entertain the punters think robbie williams on lighter fuel the occasional youngster would gob on us and there was a memorable night when a large scale fight broke out there was also the day the undertones before they were famous saw us in spuds a pub in portstewart long since gone and asked declan if we wanted to play in derry at one of their gigs derry was of course a bit dangerous place for young ulster protestants so nothing came of it how different things could have been rt yea the easter monday and boxing day gigs in spuds portstewart were always the best 400 people crammed into a venue that could hold about 200 ss who were the other bands you would play shows with to other bands at the time were clive culbertson s lot no sweat later called the sweat and of course the xdreamysts i can t remember any others rt flying squad gigs on a thursday nights again in spuds were always great they later became known as xdreamysts a great bunch of guys ss how did you come in contact with rip off george doherty rt it was through clive culbertson that we met george to yea clive culbertson introduced us to rip off records clive s band had already got a deal with george and recommended us to him ss your single on rip off credits george doherty as producer can you speak about the experience in the studio with him rt i can t remember too much about the recording except there was a lot of beer consumed to i remember the recording sessions very well although it was clive rather than george who did the actual recording great fun it was although the facilities were quite basic i seem to recall tins of mcewans helped toadie s vocal performance a lot george and clive did the mastering later some syndrums quite novel at the time were added at this stage and the members of the band were as i recall not overly keen on this i had real trouble keeping my guitar in tune so if the tone sounds extra distorted that s the real reason ss can you speak about the how was the single received what kind of airplay if any did you get rt i haven t a clue it didn t seem to matter at the time to don t know how many copies were issued but we did sell enough to get one royalty payment it got some airplay in ulster and john peel played it on radio one we had to pretend she doesn t love me was the a side given the explicit lyrics of suzy lie down quite tame by today s standards my mum loved it fortunately she never really listened to the lyrics ss beyond the two tracks released on your rip off single did you have any other material recorded or plans for other releases to we did do a further recording of some other songs with clive on his reel to reel recorder but i doubt they re still in existence we definitely recorded tribute and belfast s burning don t know if toadie can remember any others there is quite a market apparently in japan for retro punk new wave of the era and clive has his own studio so we may well do some re recording in the near future if i can remember the chords ss what was the end of cramp like and did you pursue any other musical projects rt believe it or not i went solo just me and an eko acoustic singing many a crude song merged in with other stuff that i had written to yea toadie just decided he had had enough that we had done all we were going to do and he was right as i recall he then did some solo gigs and performed such legendary songs i live in a pair of underpants and the boys they call her polo nigel and i played in minor classics after cramp we released one single sign language you can hear it on http www myspace com 1977records and did record a number of other tracks at the studio at templepatrick with a view to releasing an album but nothing came of it we mostly did local gigs i also did some gigs with a local artist the very talented joey newcombe just show band type stuff weddings and the like but got the best money of my playing career by far posted by trey lindsay at 12 49 00 am 2 comments 01 november 2009 bb and the guns 1981 spazz records aint sleepin with me 2942 1982 spazz music step by step i don t know i don t care here are the only 2 releases from the dekalb il powerpop group bb and the guns after recently discovering these guys i had to know more so i tracked down founding member ken goodman and racked his brain about the band band members were rick mosher guitar vocals betsy buenzow vocals ken goodman keyboards rich bell bass dave briggs drums how did you guys meet we all met in 1980 in the dorms of northern illinois univ we were all 18 years old we put ads in the local paper for a drummer and bass player doug davis answered our ad for a drummer he was a frat boy but we liked him because he had a great drum kit a cadillac eldorado and a rehearsal space in his frat house all we had to do was play one or two parties per semester and all the boys loved bb our first bass player rich bell was an older fellow who was kind of strange he didn t talk much we made him get a new wave haircut he giggled a lot when he got stoned we were all getting into punk and new wave i was just getting out of reo journey styx and pure prairie league we started listening to clash blondie sex pistols gen x omd elvis costello benatar u2 and josie cotton we were kind of outsiders in dekalb il but there was a small group of artists and musicians that liked the same music so it was kind of exciting and fun time was it tough playing this sort of stuff in dekalb il it wasn t too hard being in a punk pand in dekalb there was even a bar in town that had new wave night where we all gathered every wed night we were mini celebrities actually all our bar gigs would get packed and the local radio stations played our singles quite a bit we wore make up to class and wore punk clothes we didn t take ourselves too seriously bb actually was going to niu on a track scholarship who wrote the songs and were there any other records on spazz rick and myself wrote all the songs and we did other punk new wave covers spazz was my first label our two singles are the only releases after spazz i started pravda records in 1984 which is still my full time job today there is a small batch of bb songs unreleased that i have on a normal bias cassette did you guys ever tour or play with any bigger touring bands we once opened for the ramones at haymakers in the chicago suburbs one guy stood right in front of me our entire set and was giving me the finger the whole time i loved it we also played with the producers once and other regional bands i can t remember what became of the members of the group bb still lives near dekalb il and has 3 kids she still sings and we re still in touch i still play in a band with rick called the new duncan imperials we have been together 20 years and have toured the world and released many cds rich bell doug davis greg balk and dave briggs former members all disappeared into civilian life and have never re surfaced as far as we know
