Tony Colton (v)/Ray Smith (g,v)/Pete Gavin (d,v)/Chas Hodges (b,v)/Mike O'Neil (o,p,v)/Albert Lee (g,v) - these dates are not certain but seem the most likely, given the information which I have. -track 4 has the voice of a dj called Brian Matthew on it. He refers to "Top Of The Pops." This was and still is a weekly tv show that goes out playing the hits of the day. Brian Matthew, to my knowledge, never presented the show. A little research leads me to believe that the reason for the voiceover by him is this. It seems that the BBC did, and maybe still do, put together transcription shows which they refer to as "Top Of The Pops" and Brian was used to "present" them. He also mentions Albert Lee playing "knockout country style fiddle." This must be artistic license on his part because, to my knowledge, Albert doesn't play fiddle. Have you ever tried playing fiddle and guitar at the same time!! It's got to be Chas Hodges. - track 7 has the voice of Alan "Fluff" Freeman over the fade out. This was probably a repeat playing of a session on his Saturday Rock Show.
