Given the original version has never left my top 10 Bill albums, this is great news - bought and downloaded! 😎

You Here Now In William’s World

You’re welcome. They’re from a stash of old 35mm negatives which I rediscovered recently after being left in a carrier bag in the loft for 40 years! They are in poor condition but I cleaned them up digitally as best I could. I’ve also got a couple of even poorer quality photos from the 1981 Practical Deamers gig in Retford which I’m currently working on - I’ll post them on here in due course.

☹️

I kept a notebook listing every gig I attended from the mid 70’s through to the late 80’s which was quite often two a week. Sadly it got lost during a house move so now I rely on an increasingly vague memory! I presume you are aware of set list.fm which is a good resource?

Yes! Two us have already posted about that in this thread…🤷🏼

Really sad news. I remember having a good chat with him back at Nelsonica in (I think) 2004. A lovely unassuming chap. RIP.

No brainer! Ordered! 😎

Agreed. What was once a lively, thriving community has now gone very sleepy…

Agreed - a really well written and interesting read. That whole Liverpool Zoo Records scene was fascinating. See also Will Sargeant’s recent books.

Many happy returns Bill! 🎂

Like Southern Dreamer, I'm still getting the same 'unavailable' messages for all Bill's FB posts too.

I'm about 70 miles from Bill! 🙂

🙉

Giving this post a bump as I also would like to see Bill's Facebook posts but all I get is the 'content unavailable' message. 😕
