16 Nov 99 - 06:08 PM (#137011) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: Barry Finn If you're talking about the Roaring Jelly that's been playing dances in the Boston area for at least the past 25 years, yes they're still around. Go to the NEFFA site & search performers you find an update of their current members. Barry |

From: Roger the skiffler Sorry, Steve can't help, did have a friend who was a drummer in various bands including a 50s R&R band called Juggling with Jelly, but that was in Surrey and he's now exiled to Geelong in Australia (we sent them convicts, and now we send them drummers, and we wonder why they want to dump the Queen!). |
17 Nov 99 - 07:24 PM (#137599) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: Jo Taylor I remember them Steve but that was early eighties - I've just done a search (trying to stay up late enough to see the meteorite thingy) and came up with a lot of hits for the Boston band, which is not at all the same thing as that bostin' band (correct usage?!) to which you refer, who seem to have completely disappeared... I bet you didn't know that there is a Siberian Iris called Roaring Jelly! Jo xx |
17 Nov 99 - 07:36 PM (#137607) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: "Roaring Jelly" is the title of a tune in one of the books of Gow's 'Complete Repository'. Elsewhere the tune is called "Smash the Windows". |

18 Nov 99 - 07:11 PM (#138098) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: Jo Taylor Um, no, I wasn't being at all obtuse (unusual!) - my search hit on an iris identification page, there were lots of pretty pictures of flowers and one of them was called Roaring Jelly... and then it was p'ing down & cloudy and I couldn't see the sky show. Was one of them called Derek? (band not iris). Jo xxx PS Haven't been away, just haven't felt the need to put fingers to keyboard recently! |
19 Nov 99 - 03:32 AM (#138271) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: Steve Parkes Ah, Uncle Derek, the kiddies' Friend? I don't suppose he calls himself that now! Derek What's-his-name, the melodeon player and vocalist; then there was a tallish(?) chap who played the guitar; and a rather Barry-Gibb-like young man (only good-looking with it), who played acoustic bass guitar. They sang 'Quenn Victoria, riding a motorbike/Upa and down the cobbled streets of Mansfield Town', and an hilarious Mum-dad-and-son version of Lord Randall: 'Where the 'ell 'ave you been, Lord Randall my son?'. Am them 'em? Steve |
19 Nov 99 - 05:07 PM (#138484) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: Melbert That's them! We used to have them play gig's a the kids' school when they were younger and I was on the PTA. Their version of "my old man's a dustman" was a hoot, as was "Big Valerie Wilkins". I have their album "Golden Grates" - it's one of my favourites. |
20 Nov 99 - 02:10 AM (#138661) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: roopoo Never saw 'em, only heard 'em now and again on the radio. I thought they disbanded in the late eighties. Just something I remember hearing, but I moved in '87 to the rarified atmosphere of Yorkshire from North Notts. Try South Riding Folk Network (deals with N.Midlands and S. Yorks) on www.folk-network.com and see if there's a contact in there who might know something. mouldy |
12 Nov 05 - 12:39 AM (#1602894) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: GUEST,Martin Underwood I have a recording (from a badly-tuned radio, unfortunately) of several songs that they sang at Towersey Festival in the late 70s or early 80s. Their version of "My Old Man's A Dustman" (including a West Indian version!) is delightfully irreverant, and "Big Valerie Wilkins" is great - it brings back memories of being "just six years old". There was another song about what happens when love goes bad, featuring the memorable line "I can see how the plot has been planned / It's as plain as the nose on your hand"! |
12 Nov 05 - 12:57 AM (#1602897) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: GUEST,Martin Underwood I've dug out the recording. Roaring Jelly are described as coming from Derbyshire and consist of Derek Pearce, Clive Harvey and "Master" Michael Hennessey. It is Michael Hennessey who puts so much passion into "Big Valerie Wilkins". |
12 Nov 05 - 03:08 AM (#1602901) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: alanabit "Where the Hell 'ave you been Lord Randall our son..." They were a hoot. I saw them in the mid seventies and again sometime in the early eighties. I think one of them doubled in the excellent guitar trio, Six Hands in Tempo. Certainly not BS. They were goood players, singers, writers and entertainers. |

12 Nov 05 - 07:57 AM (#1602971) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: PennyBlack Don't mention "Christmas in Australia" - we released it on a CD a few years ago (2001) and as a CD single. Jim Bowen (Radio Lancashire at the time) decided to have an early Christmas so it was decided that he would play our version of CiA, however we weren't allowed to say "Bloody" on daytime Radio so we had to re-record it as "Blooming" Not quite the same! The original chorus(for them whot ain't heard it):- Christmas in Australia is Christmas in Paradise Christmas in Australia is Basically Bloody Nice Bruce goes steady with Sheila, Sheila goes steady with Bruce If you don't have a Christmas suntan, Your a Pommie and you ain't no use. We still do the song, needless to say the Bloody's back. remains of deleted CD cover PB |

12 Nov 05 - 11:54 AM (#1603077) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: The Badger A really great band. I had the pleasure of presenting them several times when I was running the Sun Inn FC at Doncaster in the late 70's early 80's. Always a full house night. They split at the top after a final performance at Stainsby Folk Festival - should have been 45mins - lasted 2 hours! They marquee was that packed we wouldn't let them off as we knew it was the last chance to see them on stage - marvellous concert. Derek had been having increasing hearing problems and performing was becoming more and more difficult for him, so they set a date to call it a day. The 'chemistry' between them was such that it would have been impossible for one member to leave and be replaced and the band still be "Roaring Jelly". They left behind a legacy of many hours of great entertainment for thousands of people at festivals and in folk clubs. The band was Clive Harvey, Derek Pearce and Mick Hennessy. Recordings : Golden Grates - Free Reed FRR013. This includes the "Mansfield Royal Visit" and the advice to play it at 78rpm "It'll be over quicker". In the Roar - with the tasteful nude cover photo. This includes "Valerie Wilkins", "Christmas in Australia" and "Not for the Soul" - the song about love going bad. Six Hands in Tempo - another great band I had the pleasure of presenting - was Steve Bailey, Alan Harris, and Dave Proctor. |
12 Nov 05 - 01:26 PM (#1603126) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: Mrs.Duck After Roaring Jelly closed, at least one of the members performed with a group named the Beverley Brothers. Don't know what happened to them either... Quack! GtD. |

12 Nov 05 - 04:19 PM (#1603199) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: Bainbo Yeah, I remember Clive playing with R Cajun. He'd been introducing some "faux cajun" into Roaring Jelly anyway - "Donnez-moi le Cajun gumbo, il est froid ce soir, ce soir". My abiding memory of is them at Durham Folk Festival, at a concert in the ancient town hall. Called back for an encore, they dashed off the stage and into the massive old stone fireplace (it was big enough to take all three of them) to harmonise an acapella version of I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire. Treasured memories. Don't remember any of them being with Six Hands In Tempo, though. That was three teachers who only toured during the school holidays, wasn't it? |
12 Nov 05 - 06:39 PM (#1603288) Subject: RE: Roaring Jelly (not quite BS!) From: The Badger Six Hands in Tempo were available all year round. Noteable for tremendous three piece guitar work and harmony they did a lot of songs from the 20's and 30's. They were not involved with Roaring Jelly. Two LPs - well worth a play if you come across them - All in Good Time(Burlington-BURL006 and Desperate Digits (Plant Life - PLR054}. |
