@@paulastacey3341 its weird the few years we were together he never mentioned you... I'm trying to try to picture you in the day did you live with join in Hammersmith flora gdns or at Tony's flat?
@@sunshine46ful I met JB when he was 20, and after he broke up with Jayne the girl he married, he said he would ask for a transfer from the little council place he had in the Bush, and we went around looking at flats and moved into Flora gardens. have a look at this link to my FB page, its a tribute to John. facebook.com/HammersmithPalaisOldSkool/videos/224090112158406/
they released a cd a few years ago on detour records, (all the old stuff), was rumours of a come back gig , sadly never happened, I had contact with John for a while,I was put on to him by Jon Coney and thats where the idea for the release came.I will see if I still have Johns mail, he is on the mods reunited site I think,Tony was in Big Sound Auothority who had a few minor hits back then
don't recall anyone called allan in this band, it was john & tony burke, this band went on to become big sound authority without john burke tho......i think!
The drummer is my cousin Steve Martinez :)
Valerie Martinez seen em them live at the 100 club..Brilliant
very good mod band wish i could of got to see them live

Me too. Great little single. Shame on The Sta-prest and Teenbeats.
Un des meilleurs groupes Mods Revival
The Teenbeats and The Sta Prest. They were 2 mod bands
great track from a great band ace mod sound
It may be too late_another classic
what a great lead vocal by john burke. great band x
Yep! Amazing, really liked the video ! Music is the best invention of our species isn't it? I'm very chuffed to be a musician!
Still play my 7" vinyl to this day
Worth a few quid that pal
@@stilllaughing3959 yup sold it recently for £175!
I remember the gig. Tom (Teenbeats).
Reminds me of a really weak A-Bomb In Wardour Street.
The greyhound, Fulham Palace Road, great times
The one who's singing is my uncle cooooool
My best mate at the time, we were flatmates when John and Tony formed the band. I spoke with John yesterday.
