I had no idea it was limited (I also didn't pick it up for a particularly high price, but perhaps I was just lucky).<br /><br />Until you mentioned it just now, I also had no idea whatsoever that the Eamonn Andrews track charted. I'd always assumed, without even bothering to check, that it was a ghastly old flop. However, Chartstats states clearly that it got to number 18 in the charts. Absolutely unbelievable.<br /><br />Of course, the Legendary Stardust Cowboy and Nervous Norvus both did modest "novelty" business in America. I also actually prefer NN's follow-up "Ape Call", where he tries to woo ladies by making loud ape noises. I believe that's on YouTube somewhere.23 Daveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06341570374606412042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499949614093219266.post-6794515396384951572010-10-07T13:53:44.926+01:002010-10-07T13:53:44.926+01:00I'm pretty sure I read somewhere over the year...I'm pretty sure I read somewhere over the years that this was actually a limited edition album - they pressed a set amount of copies, it sold out quickly but they didn't press any more hence it's not actually that easy to find... I've certainly never encountered one over the years of trawling record fairs and charity shops... or else I'd had snapped it up!<br /><br />Jess Conrad? Unbelievable to think he was given his own movie vehicle, "Rag Doll" which was a disaster. Most intriguingly, he performed the hapless "Why Am I Living?" and the band behind him on screen should look familiar - an early line up of The Dave Clark Five! It's here on YouTube...<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJBa5SJOVyA<br /><br />And what else can one possibly say about the man whose sole album was entitled "Jess For You?" Well, a lot but this isn't quite the place!<br /><br />An ex-mate of mine did a short stint as a commercial radio DJ in Summer 2005... I guested on his final show, playing an hours worth of um... interesting music, but the week before that he stopped me in my tracks by playing Jimmy Cross' "I Want My Baby Back" and followed it with The Pretty Things' "Death"! lol... no surprise then he was not asked back for a regular show. In my hour guest spot I played stuff by The Shaggs, Ivor Cutler, Vivian Stanshall, Geoff Goddard's "Sky Men" and most amusingly, Landscapes' "Norman Bates" which hugely amused my pals who tuned in to the show.<br /><br /><br />The Eamonn Andrews track always brings my mind to a complete halt with his over cheery delivery seemingly forgetting the fact he was in a recording studio as opposed to a live TV studio. To think many people actually bought that for it to chart... and they wouldn't had bought it for amusement value either...The Confusednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499949614093219266.post-13779360753117755192010-10-06T19:01:34.214+01:002010-10-06T19:01:34.214+01:00Mondo - I thought that was odd, too, although that...Mondo - I thought that was odd, too, although that's not the real reason I left it off the download (that had more to do with me having suspicions that the appearance of the track had caused previous uploads of this album to be taken down from other blogs). But yes - what sounds like brilliant mayhem now must have sounded like a disorganised, incoherent noise to Capital Radio listeners in 1977.<br /><br />Also, thanks Anonymous. I try to be optimistic about new radio talent coming through the BBC, but sadly I'm seldom presented with anything to get that cheery about.23 Daveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06341570374606412042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499949614093219266.post-83809390172937151792010-10-06T15:58:17.700+01:002010-10-06T15:58:17.700+01:00I was look around for this the other week, thanks ...I was look around for this the other week, thanks for posting !<br /><br />Kenny's worst record shows are on line, just do a quick 'Google' and you'll find them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499949614093219266.post-38480935500731576092010-10-06T15:28:18.434+01:002010-10-06T15:28:18.434+01:00One of the most articulate and informed commentari...One of the most articulate and informed commentaries I've ever read on a blog. You say 'The only shame is that nobody has tried to update the project in any commercially visible way since'. - This is not likely to happen either. Everett was a broadcasting genius. Since almost every radio station (except the BBC) has stifled creativity and the spawning ground (bored and talented radio pirates cooped up on a ship with a battery of recording equipment) sadly no longer exist it's fair to say we will never ever hear the like of his type of creative genius (which sparked this car crash) again. Keep up the magnificent work!
