Let's Get Quizzical

Don't forget!!


It's the mega one-off music quiz at Spanky Van Dyke's on MONDAY (16th August)!

I'm organising this superfun quiz to raise money for charity, so I'd love it if you came along and brought a team with you. It's all about music, different genres and different types of rounds, so hopefully there will be something for everyone. Test your knowledge, flex the muscles of your musical mind and tell us the answers to questions such as:

Q: Who teamed up with Nancy Sinatra for the 1971 hit 'Did You Ever'?


So, come along on Monday, 8ish at Spanky's and get quizzical! Your host will be the delightful Joey Chickenskin and live music will be provided by the handsome and talented Rory P McCarthy, who (with any luck) will also be providing us with a LIVE "name that tune"!

Thanks!

Becky

3 top Charity Shop finds

On the topic of charity shops, here's 3 current favourite charity shop records.

NANCY & LEE - Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazelwood (from Scope, Mansfield)
Features the classics 'Summer Wine' and 'Some Velvet Morning' - a folky-psych pop gem. Absolutely lovely

MOOG PARTY TIME
- "The New Exciting Sound Of The Moog Synthesiser" (from RSPCA, Sutton-in-Ashfield)

I actually have 2 charity shop copies of this, although I'm not sure why.
The drums on 'Popcorn' are incredible and it's worth a purchase for that tune alone.

TA DOULEUR 7 inch - Camille
(bought just last week from Oxfam Music & Books in Beeston)

I love Camille and this is the best song from her flawless 'Le Fil' album. Sublime stuff.
