Description
(HELLO GIRL..) by ( DR.MARIGOLDS )...... ....(Dr Marigold’s Prescription started in 1968 as a backing group for Billy Fury, after the Blue Flames, (which included Georgie Fame) and The Plainsmen. Members: Alan French (keyboards), Bill French (bass), Dave Morris (drums), Fred Radley (guitar, vocals). In the early days Dr Marigold did back several artists to include: Bruce Channel (USA), John Walker (Walker brothers) USA, The Flirtations, Madeline Bell, Dominic Grant was not a member of the band, although Dr. Marigold backed him for a while on a promotional tour. They produced two albums. “Pictures Of Life” is their debut from 1969. The second album ‘’Hello Girl’’ did very well. ‘’Hit Songs From London’’ – that was an American bootleg version of Pictures Of Life album. A CRAZY FAN SAYS: Well "Hello Girl"- hello me. Hello y'all. For those of you who have just landed on planet earth and have missed out on the recent machinations of how I obtained this super dooper mega-rarity, please read comments on this UK pop/rock first album "Pictures Of Life", I posted last year. There you will learn that the nephew of "Dr. Marigold's Prescription" lead singer Fred(rick) Radley was wanting to get in touch with his uncle and a reader called 'Tin Soldier' ranted and raved about how he used to see these guys live all over London in the 70's. Then Fred the man himself dropped by and lo' and behold, I reunited him with his nephew after some 30 years and then our good ol' Tin Soldier sent me a copy of this fantastic little teaser "Hello Girl", which has been on my wishlist forever. Amazing, fantasic and totally coincidental as Fred was going to send me a copy anyway. So, it's a funny old world folks and with the power of music, not only have I reunited two family members but got the blessing to post this and without posting their first album, none of this would have happened. So apart from thanking Tin Soldier for being a hero and ripping this quality piece of work from vinyl, I would like to wish Fred & Alan all the luck in the world - it being such an auspicious time of year and all. Good on you. And thank you for your support Fred & Alan. Anyway, what's all the fuss about Chuntao. It's only another one of your rare posts. No? Yes it is, but I have to disagree with Vernon Joynson & his team in his "Tapestry Of Delights" book about the description of this cool UK band. They are rather harsh IMO. This is a very enjoyable album with 2 very good covers, viz. "Lean On Me" & Bob Dylan's "She Belongs To Me". The best cuts on it are "Hello Girl", "Tokens" & "What The Heck". And I really like the tongue-in-cheek "Crazy Porno Love". I maybe be being biased. So, "What The Heck", I love this album and wouldn't have listened to it more than 20 times since I received it, if I couldn't hear talent. Fred has a richness to his voice that is very satisfying. I give this obscure little British pop/rock band 5 out of 5 smiles. :))))) And I hope many of you who have this on your wishlist eg "The Bomber" & nelwizard over @ PNF forum agree also. So folks, y'all know what I am gonna say and again with just cause, grab this charming addictive and honest piece of work here FIRST. DISC IS M SL IS M- RARE!! )
