Hi to Ian from Tulsa, I have the Searchers LP on Golden Guinea I think, remember them Ian??!! Its sort of the end of an era I guess. I liked the Searchers and...
Hello Brian, Yes the 60's were a great time. Chris Curtis left the Searchers in 1966 and I always thought that he gave the band a lot of class in that as a...
A friend called last night to say that the Vaults 3 release date has been published as early-mid April, like the 12th or so. I should have paid more attention...
Kirk, I was able to order Vaults III for £11.99 incl. s&h using PayPal, from Raucous Records http://www.raucousshop.co.uk/shop/product.asp?pid=8451 Del Kirk,...
Yeah Del, That's also what Dave Burke told us. I'm just saying it may be a little later according to a published date. -Marty -----Original Message----- From:...

I have seen the groups you have mentioned live before and they are all first class so you are going to have a great time. Its a pity you couldn't extend your...
Hi Mikey, Downtown Disco? What ever happened to Disco? I'm sure you miss that sound...LOL! If there is a Downtown version, I hope it wasn't 70's-insipred! ...
Well, Steven. Del tells me that the unreleased "Downtown" exists on the master tape for the Shaft Lp. That would indicate that its a disco type version. Lets...
Thanks, Del. I've passed this along to my wife, as my birthday's in April! Speaking of The Ventures...I have just discovered one of the editors working here...
Ian, can you please give us the information on the twin DVD you have mentioned - I would like to investigate ordering it myself - Thanks Boulder Bob The...
Now wait a minute, Mikey, I think we should be more careful than to say that Del said Downtown was on the Shaft master tape. That adds way too much validity to...
Hi Bob. Do you still play live with your band???. I still enjoy a lots of your <<Wild night>> version, one of my favorite UF Track. Hope to meet you somedau...
I totally agree with Marty on this one. And I always think Downtown should be a perfect fit for the <<1 Million $ week-end>> LP concept. Thats my own opinion...
Well, Ok, Marty, I understand your point. I'm just thinking that because Joe R. Specifically mentioned "Shaft", that it was something that he remembered. What...
Actually, Mikey, I believe it's even a wider spread...1964 vs late 1967. Del *************** Mikey wrote: Also, I think "Downtown" would have been too early...
Good point, Marty Del of course said "This seems odd though, because "Downtown" was a 1964 hit, so maybe his memory was not quite "on" ) " So...maybe Downtown...
Stephen, For me, the problem was not "disco" per se. I love "The Hustle" as an instrumental piece, for instance. For me, it's that EVERYthing got "disco'ed"...
I've met Joe. I've spent a couple of hours talking to Joe. I would take with a healthy grain of salt anything Joe says. Maybe that's just me. Kirk Bj. Mike...
Well, ok Marty, I'll take your word for it, as I have never met Joe. Mikey ... From: Kirk Bjornsgaard To: undergroundfire2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday,...
Hello Bob, If you go into ebay now under New Musical Express you can buy a U.S. copy from a New York dealer for $25.99. Its a great nostalgic experience. Ian ...
Re: [undergroundfire2] Downtown Disco?There's an argument that the year for Downtown, 1964, is out of the scope of the $1,000,000 Weekend album which was made...
Hi Everyone! Please refresh me on how the Downtown thing started...What makes this song so special in the supposed repertoire of The Ventures? I'm not being a...
It may be hard to imagine now, Marty, but "Calcutta" was a smash no.1 instrumental hit for Lawrence Welk (his only top tenner) back in the very early...
