There's a commercial radio station in my area that plays some kind of "adult" format that means lots of meandering folk singers and "Salisbury Hill" and "Games...
Hey everyone- I joined up as I've become a huge fan. I started with 'Groovies Greatest Grooves' and now am collecting all the stuff I can. I have all the...
Welcome, Phil! Not speaking for anyone else, but my favorites of the non-Sire, non-Buddha releases are "Step Up" released by AIM, and any iteration of the...
Hi, this time it's the "Shake Some Action" week ! : - Cyril Jordan & Mike Wilhelm Live 2001 - Sneetches & Cyril Jordan Live 1991 - Rubinoos - Los Hermanos...
Cyril says sorry, but the 1st pressing of single, Tomorrow Never Comes/Run & Hide, is sold out. Now we(the band) are now in the process of going into a 2nd...
Just curious.....Was anyone on this list able to get a copy of the new CD single? When did it go on sale (usually required before something can sell out!) ???...
Thanks for the info. I want to get 'Rock Juice' and 'In Person' but I guess 'Step Up' will have to go in the mix too. ... [Non-text portions of this message...
We have a new member, Anthony Clark (?), who is apparently a friend of Chris Wilson. Anthony, welcome to the Groovies list, and please tell Chris we said hi,...
Hi Chas, I've been a Groovies fan ever since Shake Some Action was released - an album that's still in my top 10, even after all these years. I saw the band...
Hi, this week : - Asteroid B612 "Second Cousin" - Crybabies "I'll Cry Alone" - Groovies Live San Francisco 10.09.81 "Between The Lines" - Roy Loney Live juin...
Hey, Anthony. There is (if still here) a list member who is a friend of George, and as of their post several years ago, said he was working for the Post ...
Chas, I saw the Groovies in the summer of `78 and again many years later when just Cyril and George were left – so to speak. I'd planned on seeing them when...
Someone on this list posted awhile back (Don?) that George had retired from the music biz, worked for the US Postal Service and was living the ultimate male...

Don, Ah, The Pineapple – a fine pub recently saved from being converted into flats by a local petition. I was there just a couple of weeks back showing Chris...
I'm probably the one who posted the info on George. Cyril told me a couple of years ago that he was working for the USPS, and living in Novato (home of the...
....and I believe George's last attempt at playing music was at the ill-fated original band rehearsals for Cave Stomp 2001 in NYC (postponed for a couple of...
Original line up rehearsal Does anyone know why this came to nothing? Roy recently seemed unwilling to comment so I assume there was some bad blood. It's a...
Anthony - My understanding is that the Cave Stomp promoters made offers for several years prior to 2001, for the originals (Roy, Cyril, George, Tim Lynch &...
I believe there were also other circumstances (besides 9/11) beyond the band members' control. Shortly after the postponement of Cave Stomp, Danny moved up...
The MP3 of Chris doing Phantom Mover is great – is there any more material from the gig? Chris was unaware that the performance had been recorded and I'd...

Hey Anthony, Glad you like the mp3. Check out my post (#2650) from August 2003 for the story behind it. In short, Chris, James Ferrell, Danny Mihm and Daniel...
