The last time I know this track was played in public was at a party in Holland for Alan who played bass on it, still rocks though doesnt it? let me know what you want and i'll put something together barry@biguntidy.com Barryhttp://www.biguntidy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-74771288151219756382012-10-23T13:20:22.755-05:002012-10-23T13:20:22.755-05:00There's a blog that's covered Bob Morgan q...There's a blog that's covered Bob Morgan quite well - you should check it out!<br /><br />http://left-and-to-the-back.blogspot.ca/2012/06/steppin-out-bob-morgan-whos-to-know-you.html<br /><br />http://left-and-to-the-back.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/reupload-bob-morgan-marguerite.html<br /><br />And while we're going link crazy this guy did an okay post on I Jog and the Tracksuits<br /><br />http://toneandwave.blogspot.ca/2008/01/i-jog-tracksuits-red-box-worrying-man-7.html<br /><br /><br />Hey do you any biographical info on The Statistics (or any interest in jotting one down)?

Bob Morgan's stuff with Step...Thanks Jeffen. <br /><br />Bob Morgan's stuff with Steppin' Out is worth a listen. He was ahead of the Police in being reggae-influenced. They had a great drummer. He also wrote the tune Marguerite with its soulful clarinet with used to accompany the pictures in Tony Hart's TV programme (Vision On?). <br /><br />I played bass on another micro-classic from the same Tyger label around the same time: Red Box by I Jog and the Tracksuits, written by Graham Tracksuit who was originally in The Statistics. <br /><br />David Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191686244361274747.post-6422821545956538602012-10-13T13:43:37.210-05:002012-10-13T13:43:37.210-05:00David,
