Happy New Year to all. Surfrider1962 (talk)

[edit] Jet Boy Jet Girl

All new info is ok. Surfrider1962 (talk)

  • The Softies with a link is only an eponymous band. Nothing to see with Cap. Surfrider1962 (talk)
  • And the new one as well. It is quite clear that you confound the releases of "Jet Boy" (11/77) and "Ca Plane" (12/77) because the latter was #39 in the States round May 78. Anyway, Cap Sensible with Dutch-English band The Softies recorded it too and that their cover song was released in July of 1978 charting in the UK later in June 1982 as the B-side of The Damned's "Wait For The Blackout".

[edit] B-side of Skokiaan

I saw other comments by the seller on e-Bay (anyway, the image came from there) about the B-side : KAREKWANGU... Surfrider1962 (talk)

  • ).***The disc featuring Karekwangu on the B-side was issued on GALLO-Gallotone-JIVE GB.1152 and released in 1947.***[1]
  • What was the first rock'n'roll record? USA, 1992.
  • Just have some over my head to be considered as falsifying anything.

So : I' VE GOT A WOMAN is the correct title song. Just go to a store "Do-it yourself".

  • I Got A Woman recorded by Elvis on Tuesday, 10 January 1956

Written by: Charles; Richard Originally recorded by Ray Charles in 1954 Hear Elvis's version on: Elvis Presley (Rock 'n' Roll No.1); Recorded Live On Stage In Memphis Ray Charles recorded this number as "I've Got A Woman." According to Renald Richard, Charles's bandleader at the time, they wrote the number after hearing and singing along to a gospel number, whilst driving to Nashville from a gig in South Bend, Indiana. Charles liked the tune and asked Richard if he could do something with it; the next morning, "I've Got A Woman" was written. The original gospel song was probably an Alex Brown hymn that began, "I've got a saviour, way over Jordan, He's saved my soul, oh yeah..." In 1951 the "Bailey Gospel Singers" recorded a version as "I've Got A Savior (Across Town)."

[edit] John Lawton

  • Recorded 4 instrumental tracks with Bill Haley in 1978 and 1980 under the name THE AIR MAIL (an earlier pseudonym for the German garage hangover band GERMAN BONDS (Polydor): 'All on the floor', 'Ribcord rock', 'Tony's corner' and 'Rock around the world' (all signed by John(?) Sprangers. Released in 1980, this LP is practically unknown (Germany, Sonet/EUROPA 111 548.0). The other members were, but not quite sure at all, Peter Hesslein, Dieter Horns, Michael "Mike" Starrs, Curt Cress to name but a few, all from Lucifer's Friend. In fact, Lawton was The Air Mail's singer in 1971 and 1972 but was not part of the same band in 1978 and 1980.

BTW, A1 & B1 are live tracks (RATC, 1978 and Razzle Dazzle, 1980): where from? What do you think of it, Canadian specialist? Surfrider1962 (talk) 17:47, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] RATC - lenght version

  • from Wikipedia: "Although originally released to vinyl at a running time of 2 minutes and 8 seconds, most digital/CD releases of the original 1954 recording clock in at 2:10. This is due to the inclusion of a "count-in" by one of the Comets (saying, "One...two") at the very start of the song. This was never included in the original single or album releases of the song. (All of Haley's subsequent studio rerecordings of the song run longer than 2:10 with the exception of the abbreviated version recorded for Happy Days.)
  • Did you forget Bill Haley saying "one...two" on the Rock 'n Roll Stage Show released in April 1956? (CD issue in 1993). Surfrider1962 (talk) 13:36, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
