We're pleased to announce that THE SPRINGFIELDS, featuring original
member MIKE HURST, will be the support act for our concert on Saturday,
June 15 -- 50 YEARS OF TREMELOES HITS with original lead singers BRIAN
POOLE and CHIP HAWKES!!!
Amersham has now become a wonderful chance for fans to welcome CHIP back
on stage for the first time in more than a year after a tough and brave
battle against cancer of the spine. CHIP is one of the finest performers
to come out of THE SWINGING SIXTIES and one of the nicest guys on the
circuit -- a much-loved personality.
This concert is especially fitting because this year is the 50th
anniversary of THE TREMELOES first hitting the charts.
Get ready for a non-stop parade of TREMELOES' hits -- "Do You Love Me",
"Silence Is Golden", "Twist And Shout", "Here Comes My Baby", "Someone
Someone", "Even The Bad Times Are Good", "Candy Man", "Call Me Number
One", "I Can Dance", "Suddenly You Love Me" and so many
others!!!
Tickets are £15 and are available by credit card from The Record Shop
Ltd 01494-433311.
Tickets are also on sale for our NEW YEAR'S EVE CONCERT on Tuesday,
December 31, 2013 starring CHRIS FARLOWE, WAYNE FONTANA and VANITY FARE.
The tickets are £25.
The SPRNGFIELDS, voted Top British group in 1961 and 62, brought DUSTY
SPRINGFIELD into the international spotlight and proved to be the
launch-pad for her even more successful and illustrious solo career.Two
of their biggest hits "Silver Threads And Golden Needles" and "Island Of
Dreams", huge hits on both sides of the Atlantic, have been covered by
many top artists over the years. THE SPRINGFIELDS -- also featuring
DUSTY'S brother TOM -- were the first British vocal group ever to have a
Top 10 hit single in the United States.
After DUSTY went solo in 1963, TOM wrote and produced many of THE
SEEKERS' biggest hits -- "I'll Never Find Another You, "A World of Our
Own","The Carnival is Over" and "Georgy Girl". MIKE became a
much-in-demand producer for the likes of CAT STEVENS ("Matthew And Son"),
MANFRED MANN ("Mighty Quinn") and SHOWADDYWADDY ("Under The Moon Of
Love". He also managed SHAKIN' STEVENS.
So get ready to hear today's SPRINGFIELDS -- MIKE, MARINA BERRY and ANDY
MARLOW -- remind us of what made the group such a big success, plus the
later work of MIKE and TOM. Watch out for a DUSTY number or two as well!
Get your tickets early because we sell on a first come, first served
basis and many of our shows sell out in advance.
Thank you as always for supporting our shows and helping us to raise
more than £6,000 for the Iain Rennie Hospice at Home registered
charity.
Thank you too for your kind messages to Jim Grant and myself over our
health woes. Much appreciated and fortifying. Jim is doing well and I've
got a medical procedure coming up -- but we will get there and we'll
keep putting on shows if you buy the tickets!
Best wishes
Ralph Gowling
