b/w - Valkyrie of love
For those of you that regularly visit Shotgun solution you will already have read the sad news that David Parkinson has passed away.
You may say who! but this man has left some great music behind (be it in his writing, producing or playing keyboards)
Cuba were
Josie Kennington (voc)
Basil Snaith (guitar voc)
Bob Marsden (bass voc)
Phil Parkin (drums)
Dave Parkinson (keyboard)
If you want to know more about cuba & the proposed 2nd 45 (Wireless World / Frankie - recorded for Ariola, but was it ever released) see Wool City Rocker #8

Where did this one come from? Cracking single - cheers again Bruce!
ReplyDeleteNice post Bruce,thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi, just found your site and this link after plugging in Cuba for nostalgic reasons. Very sad to learn that David had passed away, I used to work with his (then) girlfriend around the time that he got his record deal and then released this fabulous - and sadly one off - single. It was all very exciting and a great record. Many thanks for sharing, replaces my scratchy old vinyl!
