I have heard of it yes as my Bass player is the singer from Radio City's son. Apparently they are going for a fair whack on eBay!
have any of you read about the radio city album being released in japan. the band are local and broke up in 1981 i believe.

Pictures of you, litter my floorboards.
Just give it to me, it's worthless..
I have both Radio City tracks plus others as well as tracks penned by Raymond on a " Dancehall Daze " tape, played by various local musicians. Theres some good tunes there.
Had that tape, must start looking in boxes.
Great tunes - would love to hear them again.
Pepsi try this link, you may be able to download them from here, it's an interesting read whatever.

Hey, I recorded that one!! Long time ago and to be fair out of my depth (2 track DAT to DAT recording was bordering on insanity!! - ie: record all the backing to one DAT machine then overdub the vocals to a second DAT recorder while live mixing each time!!! - it scares me to even thing about it now). But enough of the tech talk, Raymond was a brilliant song writer and the tunes that each band performed worked out well. I still have a CD of this (we got 3 CD's produced by Grampian records in Wick for £25 a disc - this was in 1993 when CD burning was new!!! - we gave one to Raymonds wife as a gift.) Pure class . . . . . .
All the world's a stage and we are merely players . . . . .

I doubt it is the same Radio City.
I am lucky to have been given a CD of a lot of Raymond Henderson's stuff by a fellow orger

I still have the CD that you gave me.[The third one]Raymond was not only a great songwriter he also had a great singing voice.The two tracks on the CD recorded by Barracuda were originally demos of just Raymond playing guitar and singing.We added the backing later at Ian Sinclairs studio and I sometimes think we should have left them alone, a sort of Raymond unplugged.
Any info on the release of these in Japan? Been checking the website but not seen anything to date.

...reckon it won't be long now. The Japanese like to get things just right. Raymond and I collaborated on around a hundred tunes in the Radio City/Blonde Brothers days, and I've been performing a few of them again (including 'Love and a Picture') in my solo gigs... took a long,long time for me to come to terms with not sharing the microphone with him and hearing that amazing harmony voice blasting in my lug, but there's a whole new world of people out there getting off on what we did 30 years ago, and I guess he would be as chuffed as I am about that. I was back in Thurso for a few days in July and was saddened to see the Viewfirth had gone - I guess that was one of the places we played (along with the Rosebank in Wick) where we felt something was really happening... Thanks to everyone who has kept the flame burning for Radio City over the years, they were great times and I have some wonderful memories of them. I'm off to listen to the Rubinoos now... "I think we're alone now..."
I had the old "Daznce Hall Daze" tape, wish I could find it now!
I went to School with Raymond's son and was always in awe of his Bass! Can't even remember what it was (Rickenbacker maybe???) but must have listened to 'Love and a Picture" a thousand times. I played in a band for a while and remember covering it in the old Aultnamain(sp) Inn.
Happy days.
