Thread Name: North Staffordshire songs
Subject: RE: North Staffordshire songs
There was another LP produced in Stoke Called THROUGH THE SMOKE

Several of the singers from the Red Lion Club featured on it.The disc itself suffered a defect in the pressing causing needles to jump and only a small proportion of the run were sold.

The record was produced by a guy in a record shop in Hanley. It may have been "Chapmans"???

I think the either the song On the Club or Blackpool Treat was written by Brian Bebbington.

If I remember correctly Jeff Parton's wife sang a Staffs version of the Trees they do grow high.

At the time Dudley was in Staffordshire so the DUDLEY BOYS would be a Staffs song.
