Post 457 - Ronnie Burns & The Class Of '66 - Brand New Number One / I Want You


This was Ronnie Burns last single recorded on Fable Records in 1980. Both sides were written by Johnny Young and produced by Johnny Young & Ross Cockie. We suppose the Class Of '66 was the backing band, but we can't find any information about them. We have emailed Ronnie and Johnny but as yet no reply. If we receive one we will update this post. Here to download is "Brand New Number One" b/w "I Want You" (FB-338). This is one of the hardest singles of Ronnie's to find (or so we're told)and we rarely see it for sale.

Post 456 - Julian Driscoll - Wishbone / Tijuana Tootle


Here is another one of those mystery artists. All I can really find out about this guy is that he was on "New Faces" and I can only guess he won or Ron Tudor which was often a judge on the show liked him and recorded him on his Fable label. Released in 1971 on Fable and produced by Geoff Hales, the A side featured on a LP “Channel Nine “New Faces” Discoveries”. Here to download is the single "Wishbone" b/w "Tijuana Tootle" (FB-074) this seems to be the only record Julian released.
