Hi everyone, really love to get hold of mp3s of Feelin good and the Spirit of KSD which were resung for Manx Radio in the 1970s. These were produced by Chris Kershaw with the famous Dallas singers. There were a few custom cuts such as the voice of Man. Tried many times via Manx Radio to no avail. I noticed that two of these cuts appeared on their 50th anniversary which is on You Tube. Please anyone out there.
Thanks, bryanjlambert@gmail.com. should never have chosen my cat’s name as user. Kindest regards for reading this long note.

As ever, I’ve some dubs in various forms/qualities of some of these, and from various “sources.
I’m thinking these will be the “219” (metres) ones?

PS – “mp3s” !!!

Bear with me and I’ll have a look

As usual, if anyone’s got prime quality dubs of them….!

[IainJohnston]

Is this montage them? certainly 55 KSD St Louis

These are the 232 metres and VHF and some 219 metres.

A very classy re-sing and far better vocals than the previous Tanner Manx packages of 1968 and earlier.

Would be great to find these in-the-clear and in proper quality even after all these years?
I know that the Tanner ref reels are (apparently) long gone
:^(

The master has survived, or at least the audio has – I always wondered who made these. Did Chris Kershaw write and produce for Tanner in the 70s ? Or was it Sundance or was it Kershaw-West who made these ?

I have a lovely .wav of this package unblemished and marked as February 1976 (?) with a follow up small package from November 1978.

Any further information would be appreciated.

I think Chris did write for Tanner.

Hi Ian,, Than you so much, this is quite a lot of the ones I remember as I listened in from Dublin on 219 medium wav with my old loop aerial. In the Summer they could be heard on FM the odd time. Any chance of an MP3 bryanjlambert@gmail.com. p s the feeling good package had a few more cuts. Kindest regards from an arorak and radio presenter, bryan

Hi Graham, thank you for your reply. Not sure exactly if Chris Kershaw recorded these in the old jam building at insurance lane. Tanner recorded as you probably know, a few Dallas vocals in da!!as for about a year including. Up and easy, Spirit, Simple and Free and all hits wall the time. I understand they couldn’t sustain the cost of hiring, renting and staff in Dallas, so they abandoned the Dallas projects and returned to Memphis. Any chance you could send me some mp3’s. Please?
Kindest regards, from a Radio Presenter and jingle anorak in Dublin. bryanjlambert@gmail.com n

Hi Graham, just remembered, Jon wolfert played some Tanner Dallas vocals on his rewound show. I’d say sometime in February at a guess. I’ll see if I can locate it for you.
If you can send me some wav files or mp3s of the lovely unblemished stuff you have I’d really appreciate it. Many thanks for the reply note you posted, bryanjlambert@gmail.com

Manx Radio AM still comes in around here on winter nights (near Edinburgh)

In January picked up their FM on the car radio while driving past Carlisle – huge signal even
with the entire English Lake District’s mountains in between!

PS – Bryan, why do you want (degraded) MP3 rather than “proper quality” WAV?

[BryanLambert]

Of course Iain, WAV is so much better. I was thinking of convenience! Bryan

[IainJohnston]

Since we’re on about Manx Radio / Tanner (and the following ARE sadly from very scabby MP3s derived from old reel-to-reel…!!!),
I bring you…..

And yes, the All Heart are left channel only for some reason…

The packages Spirit of St Louis and Feelin’ Good are my favorite Tanner packages.

A very nice re-sing for Manx Radio.

[m_hodgeyMember]

On checking my collection, I have a mediocre mp3 copy of what I believe to be the 1976 composite “Feelin’ Good/Spirit Of…” package.

The filename includes the producer info as “PAPA & William B. Tanner.” From the little information I was able to find, PAPA stood for Productions & Programming Association and was one of several smaller Dallas jingle companies. It was set-up in early 1977 by Bruce Collier, a previous 13-year veteran as an engineer at PAMS.

If my information is correct, presumably the vocals on these Manx Radio re-sings were handled by PAPA using the tracks licenced by Tanner?

Bryan, I will send you an email. 🙂

[IainJohnston]

Now, did we not have a discussion about PAPA a couple of years ago on JM?
