    I used to walk along this road/ pathway to the Mitcham library. I think the girl I fell in love with ( Julie Hancock St Marks primary) at aged 8 lived in the upper flats behind! Good item to discover!

    I used to live in Inglemere Court opposite . The garage was bought by two brothers ( I recall) and named Monza because they broke world records at Monza itself . It may have been distance covered over 24 hours. One night the garage caught fire and I phoned 999 . My parents woke up and thought I was dreaming and tried to take the phone from me . We had to open the windows at the front and rear of our flat in case of blast from welding equipment. The owners had another garage in Wallington also called Monza .

    Awful AI narration..."The Game Beat Groups".. then the voice changes after the lyrics into an American accent. Dreadful!

  • @mitchamnotes
    @mitchamnotes4 күн бұрын

    The plural of group was in the original article, a typo no doubt. The AI voice was from Eleven Labs and was impossible to get it to stay consistent, morphing into an American voice, despite numerous variations of the settings. It would have been better to use my own voice but I wanted it to sound like an old BBC newsreader.

    Just shows how pathetically censorious our so called 'hip' DJ's were back then not to mention our establishment. Purple Haze was out over here in 67 to name just one. Ok It was a decent song but it was hardly on The Velvet Underground's level was it. By the way I'm not even going to give a certain repugnant 'someone' any mention whatsoever. The longest time he rots away out of sight the better, until every man, woman and child forgets who he ever was.

    The problem is the British ruled the commonwealth. After the war they needed help to build the country up. So they brought in the people from the commonwealth. But they did not want to go back. The British made the people in their own country work for them. India they ruled for 200 years Until the immigration is not controlled things will not change. I am second generation me and my father and my children have university education. Are doctors and teachers. Never taken public money.🙏

    @@JohnBailey-ux9vv Just had a look. It appears mintish. I looked at his other stuff and I'd say he's overpriced. Base that on the Northern Soul 45 he has at £6750. Probably twice the going rate. It hasn't sold. I checked Popsike [actual sold 45s] for value which I feel is reasonably reliable. Back in 75/76 myself and two mates got into Indigo Studios in Manchester. We'd heard they had 45s. Upstairs there were thousands of UK demos. He wanted 20p each. We got maybe 300 60's Northern Soul 45s. At the time wasn't clued up on the collectible beat/psych stuff so left it. Passed info onto someone we knew and he got tons of stuff. Not sure where they'd come from originally. Johnny Hamp mentioned. I think Top of the Pops may have broadcast from Withy Grove in Manchester early on. We did know enough to buy say Beatles/ Stones/ Who demos but none there. No Tamla Motown either or the earlier TMG releases on Stateside etc. I have a mate who lives overseas. There's a radio station there again full of UK demos. He got in there but they wouldn't sell. He took some pictures. Amazing really. He's going to keep trying.
