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.

Lips - Say hello to my girl (1978)
b/w - Be cool from school
more powerpop for you!
The A-side was later re-recorded & released as a 45 on Double D records for "The Kraze"
If your wondering - "Is it the same band ?"
Answer is - probably!
The writer Steve Little (voc, guitar) was definitely in both bands. [the co-writer of Say hello was Martin Buckell (guitar, voc) who was not in the Kraze*]
*In case you are wondering The Kraze line-up was: Tony Toole [voc], Steve Little [rhythm guitar], Alan Hourihane [lead guitar], Mike Gorman [bass], Steve Dollman [drums], Lee Dallon [keyboards]
& yes TC Horn the producer is Mr Trevor Horn!

Like this one a lot. The other version from the Kraze is also a winner though. Cool post.

Steve Little song writer/musician/actor.
ReplyDeleteIs this the same Steve Little who once worked for Marc Bolan "T Rex?
I'm not sure; there was a Steve Little working as a Roadie for T-Rex (1972-74). looking at the photo from the kraze 45 back sleeve (see link above) I would say he's too young.
