Cheers Jamie, Paul -- Love that headline "Too Powerful Band Cause Rift in Pub". We never achieved anything like that. Andy Kershaw phoned me up at work once ... but it came to nowt.

Best, John

John, Thanks for this – I’ve so far heard the first four, all of them good, and look forward to the others.
I was just up the road from Shoreditch in the early eighties, but obviously listening to the wrong stuff.
Best wishes,
Jamie

Just on the off-chance that anyone may be interested, here is a link to some music by a band I played with in the 80s. It's country/rockabilly, and was recorded in a little basement studio in Shoreditch, London. There's a couple of songs about the Miners' Strike, a few more originals, plus some Johnny Burnette and Leadbelly covers.

Thanks for this, John. A good rockabilly sound. Did you do any Billy Lee
Riley stuff. My contribution to the rock and roll hall of fame was in the
seventies, with the locally-notorious Riff Power Band:
