lil_me Report post Posted February 15, 2006 My first single I ever bought was Gino, by Dexi's midnight runners. It was fab, and if my memory is right it was a double A side with something just as good (can't remember what) on the other side. Breakin' Down The Walls Of Heartache was on the other side of Geno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ray Report post Posted February 19, 2006 Breakin' Down The Walls Of Heartache was on the other side of Geno which was a cover of an old soul hit, by Johnny Johnson and the Bandwagon. I saw Dexy's live in, must have been, early 1980, just before they went large with Geno, and they were superb - I was going to gigs every week then and its one that sticks in my mind. Only about 100 in the audience. However, I think I'd seen the Lambrettas the week before and my gran performing on the spoons would have looked good after that lot.
