Yo the Waltons were the must-have band when you had a big night out on the Island. Wherever I went wiv me mates it was wherever the Waltons were on, the Consort, Portmouth Poly (shame not more folks from Pompey turned up - they didn't know the band), etc. Now I play guitar and wish somebody would tab the songs, espcially those on the 'Dead Above the Neck' tape they issued around 1985/6. That is still one of my best 'albums' what a wicked delivery from full-on-and-frothing band. Dread was my landlord when I lived at the Savoy Tutorial College in Ryde, 1982. Anybody goty some tab for these wicked songs email me and will be eternally grateful ! Desser.
     


We never were organised enough to write anything down. It was hard enough getting it recorded. Young people nowadays don't know they're born with their 8-Track Digital recording studios that fit into a matchbox, when I was a nipper we had it tough. We had to record our album on a piece of string, not new string mind, we dreamed of using new string, no this was string we got from fishmonger after he had used t' roll mop herring........etc

Although the writing was completely ordinary and rather Junior High School, it was amusing enough to hold my exceptionally short attention span for a whole five minutes. Thanx.
     


No no thankyou for deeming to read my trivial tat. You don't live in Moose Jaw do you?

Yes, I wish to complain! Complain that I only got to see the band twice!! Anyway, I'm totally amazed to see that there's a site dedicated to the band (not that they're not worthy of such an accolade). Living in Milton Keynes, I 'discovered' the band via 'Annika' and saw them twice at The Greyhound in Fulham in 1987. Strangely enough, I'm just transferring a load of the old demo tapes/live stuff over to CDR (why has there never been a CD??!!). Anyway, will go back and read the site fully.
     


There are tapes in existence of both those Greyhound gigs. The first one is memorable for Seans incredibly out of tune keyboard on the big opening number. Hasn't anybody got a tape they could copy to this poor sap.
