Found my copy of the red boot vinyl in a crate of discounted LPs at my local
recordshop in the early 70'ies. And for years I didn't understand where it came
from, and was confused and bewildered as to the where-to's and what-for's
of such an outstanding goodtime rockin' album. But lo and behold through
the almighty internet and searchengines and meta-tags, up comes Helge along with
a number of first class fans, who are in the know.
So now we can share the info at Paul Moules' The Mickey Jupp Website
and the Mickey Jupp
mailinglist at Yahoo.
And hopefully some Saturday night before
arthritis sets in we'll get a chance to rock and roll with Mickey Jupp at rock
and stomp in Southend !
