The plastic sax that one poster mentioned was made by "Grafton". Charlie Parker was also known to play these on occasion.

What was always missing in these off-shoot bands were good singers, if such a band doesn't have a Lee Brilleaux or Dave Tice it's not gonna be very good IMHO, no matter the other members' previous credentials. *** Sure we can! But again I gotta say that when Tice joined the Bishops I was majorly disappointed. The Spencer stuff is far superior IMHO. And I also really like Potter, Wilko and Stevie Lewin's voices! I wouldn't call the Senders and off-shoot band. Wilko was very committed to that project. Oh well... We do agree on Brilleaux. As for the Tunders book; I thought there was a better story in there, Antonia is too much of a fan to dig a bit further than the, for her apparently, romantic image of the rock'n'roll loser. *** Well, I thought she did the right thing. She furthered Johnny's tale w/o being judgemental in both Cold Blood and the Doll's book. I dunno how romantic she finds the whole thing really. I might suggest that like Perrett it's a complete waste of a promising life. Don't start me talking, ** It's Too Late! ;o) Ps: I DO however agree with you on the reggae stuff 100%. *** Thankyouverymush....

I have been looking for that Mid-late '80's there were a LOT of Chess re-issues on vinyl for $6. I bought 'Bo Diddley', 'Go', 'Have Guitar, Will Travel' and 'Bo Diddley In The Spotlight'. Still have them. Always will. I know the first two were issued on CD as a two-on-one disc. I just stuck with the vinyl on those, as they're short length and the reissued 12" covers look nice. - --ed ===== http://www.wpkn.org __________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2002 21:28:56 EST From: HOODOO3005@aol.com Subject: Re: common records in second-hand stores Here's my list of common used records - not so much in the thrifts, but in the used bins, usually cheap.

This guy I know who has compiled and annotated several reissues himself says that he tried, and it was a logistical nightmare, since Cochran kept switching from label to label (his last recording contract was thirty years ago with Epic). Chess released a really good Cochran album back around '67 or '68, but according to my annotator friend, MCA has no interest in reissuing it. Alvin Cash, of "Twine Time" fame, could use a good compilation himself - his sixties singles on Mar-V-Lus and Toddlin' Town are insane house-party soul music at its best.

Wow, he goes back to the early 80's, when I lived there. Played in The Saucers (with drummer Craig Bell, who was a former member of Rocket From the Tombs with Stiv and the Ubu guys--Craig is the "Bell" listed in the writing credits for "Sonic Reducer"), then went on to form Red Spot Productions, promoting shows in a bunch of different venues. (Moe, I know you remember all these guys--the early 80's scene there wasn't bad at all!). Anyway, what was the band Mark was in in the late 80's called--I'm thinking Certain Generals or something like that??? Oh yeah, another New Haven venue question you might be able to answer, ed--I know MopTop would know; damn, wish he were here to help with this one... There was a gay bar in New Haven on Crown Street (was it called Partners, maybe?), one block up from York that turned into a pretty wild new wave/punk club for a while. What name did it go by when they were doing the punk thing? So what will the demise of the Tune Inn leave for rockin' venues, ed? You got much besides Toad's Place these days?
