BrumBeat

[Rob]

Talking of Brummie accents tonight got me thinking about all the great bands from the West Midlands especially the "Brumbeat" bands 1960-1969.
Here's one of the earlier ones.
I saw them at The Regent Langley way back then.

That record still gives me chills all down my spine every time i hear it!!
Denny Laine's vocals are brilliant!! Saw him in Wings at The ConcertGebouw Amsterdam in '72 and he sang this.
If you mean the Brumbeat website? Look on the letters page and you'll see a letter from me!!
