Sorry to cut across you Usheen but I want to have a word with Eddy and Alpineseven. Listen, if I ever get any Spotlights the two of you can get up on your hind legs and beg but you won't even get a look Grin Grin

Hey Usheen that was a good guess but alas not the right one.While they had 5 releases in 65/66 they were all issued here and in the UK and most if not all were credited to Ian Whitcomb himself.You Turn me On was Ian Whitcomb and Bluesville and as he was English it is not the answer i require.This group is 100% Irish.

Spot on Liamo it was indeed The Creatures who had 3 singles released on CBS here and 4 releases on the Columbia label in the US of A now what was the title of the  U.S. only release back in 67.Only found out recently that Liam Mc Kenna was on vocals.Has anyone any of their singles for sale or trade.
