"Alan Edmund Bourne (1924- 2012) was once Newcastle's best-known sound engineer whose work remained his hobby. And what a versatile talent he was."

(Rolling Stones) by Bresso & Co. *FIRST TAKE*
Back story: Steve Mac said "Bresso wants to record Midnight Rambler" and we said yes...that's it. This was our unrehearsed first take. Imperfect and perfect (if you get my drift).
Stones fans will understand the philosophy. Loosely based on the 'Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!' live variant.
Mark 'Bresso' Bresnahan: vocals & harp / Justin Ngariki: guitar / Trevor Dare: guitar / Rob Bell: bass / Steve 'Mac' Mclennan: drums
Recorded and mixed by Mark Tinson at Impromptu Studios. Newcastle, Australia. July 2022. Phone footage by Oliver Bolth and Pat Tobin (thanks very much lads).

For all you people out there who have wondered over the years "whatever happened to John J Francis ?", the question has now been answered. There is now an official John J Francis web site at http://www.jjfmusic.com it has been endorsed by John himself and is highly recommended by me as a must visit site. It has history, photos, album reviews and ....... wait for it ....... music downloads.
It is what John refers to as a 'cyber busking' site. You are free to download the music, all they ask is that you make a donation for what you think it is worth to you. A very refreshing concept in this era of internet piracy, fraud and rip off. So what are you still hanging around here for ..... go and check it out.
Go to this web site and sign the petition.Whalesrevenge
If you have a band listed on the site, and you have a Myspace page for it, send me the address and I will put it up with the bands entry. Everybody and their dog has got one. Mine is HERE if you want to check it out.
Bio's:'Weld' , 'Midnight Howlers' 'Rimshot' , Contrax , Homegrown , Swanee , Nightmare , Smakka & Waddy , Loud & Proud
Steve McLennan, has done biography's on Barracuda and Freak Shop and Greg Lee Band and Mirage and Anvil Chorus and Idols and Witchdoctors
