Just another site that's giving you hard to find music

A Place To Find Some Rarer Tunes (Mod, PowerPop, Punk, Ska) ripped from my vinyl collection. If it sounds good I'll post it. The idea being that now you know about them, you can seek them out! If anyone is unhappy about any of these posts please contact me & I will take them off.

the Fascinators - I'm into something good (1981)

b/w - Don't stop now

This is the 1st of 2 45's by the Fascinators (& yes it's another cover)

I have to admit I was in a bit of a quandary as to which to post as both, have their better than good qualities.

So you're going to get both (second tomorrow)

Apparently they were from Harlow & used to be a 70's rock band called Hedgehog
Then in 1981, keeping the same line up, changed their name + style & ....voila became the Fascinators

the band were

Martin Bailey (Voc)
Stephen (Izzy) Izzard (lead guitar)
Robin Kohler (bass)
Stephen Banks (keyboards)
Kevin Ball (drums)

After the 2 singles they seem to have had a bit of a membership re-shuffle. This new line-up reaching the 1981 rock contest finals (whatever they were!!)
