I was wondering, the third Alan Bown lp, just titled The Alan Bown, was the lp that was re-released and re-recorded with Robert Palmer o vocals. Can the original with Jess Roden be found? I’ve been looking everywhere and come up with nothing. If you know of it’s whereabouts, please let me know.
Thank you, Joe Eastlack

Nice one Allan! A copy would be just the job! Hope you’re well. BTW mate, you’re around the Derby area aren’t you? I’m not sure which end of the A52 your allegiance lies, but I’ve just recorded a song for The Rams which has been getting a bit of airplay/publicity in Derby and is currently available for download and hopefully out on CD shortly.

Hi Bob, all the tracks from the Marquee album with JJ are on the Emergency 999 CD compilation. Perhaps you'd like to check out my Jess "site" on my UNSUNG HEROES blog

Thanks Kev – I followed the Alan Bown Set through the 60’s and early 70’s. Great band! Great sound! Have all their LPs except the Live at The Marquee with Jimmy James & The Vags. which was knicked in about 1970. if anyone knows where I can pick one up I’d love ‘em for ever! Do you know if AB is still on the ciruit? All the best.

Thank you so much that would be great. Ive looked on Ebay and also tried to order it from record stores here in Newcastle and Dublin but no luck. I knew all the band back in the sixties it will bring back so many good memories Have got records but all on vinyl but obviously not Mr Job Thanks again Kev .
