LP 'Losin Out by the Rhythmaires about 1985 I think on Nervous records. the line-up was Stuart Warburton, vocals etc., James Fildes, guitars, Dave Machin, drums, and Ray Walmsley, double bass. Most of the songs on this LP were writen by SW and other band members
James was the cousin of an old mate which is how I came across the band - Morrisey recruited him to appear in a post Smiths video around this time.
'Big Dave' was in a number of rockabilly bands of course but, less well known, I recall seeing him at the Ranch and many punk gigs in and around '77.

Did the Morrissey video come off? I must ask Jamie (as I've certainly never seen it) though I know he was in Robbie Coltrane's video for the single "New Orleans."
Incidentally, the sleeve was designed by our friend David Calderley (who has quite a portfolio and now lives in NYC) and the photo was taken at The Hacienda by no less a personage than Kevin Cummins himself.”
