I know this is an old thread, but it's just done me a favour. Thanks Davy, for pointing me in the right direction for a 'Sitting on the Right Side' CD. I actually have an original vinyl copy (signed by the band, but I suppose lots of them were) as my dad was pals with Trevor from the band, but I've wanted a copy on CD as well for a while.

Was listening to it yesterday, the song Sitting on the Right Side still sounds brilliant.

Davy, you're star! I'm not entirely sure why I didn't just put 'Bob Webb' into Google once you'd alerted me to the other thread... doh! Off to email him now. This thread has done its job. Thank you!

Does anyone hav any information about this group, or remember them? Even better, is anyone in touch with anyone who was in the group? Or is anyone from the group reading this? They were, I think, from the Cheshire area, and released one very limited edition album 'Sitting on the Right Side' on the Tradition Century label in 1976. Does anyone have a copy of the album?

Thanks for any help with this one!
