A long shot.....

I am trying to source a cd recorded in around the 1960's. The front cover photograph was shot on a beach and one of the bandsmen was called Bernard Whincop.

I'm desperately trying to source this CD as a surprise for Bernie and this is all the information I have. Can anyone help?

My email address is stephanie_olley@hotmail.com

Thanks in advance.

I don't think CD's were around in the 1960's???

I don't think so either - we had disc's but they weren't CD's

..The best my memory's coming up with was an album (vynil) by Staff Band... They sang "Sussex By The Sea" on one of the tracks, which would tie in with the front cover I suppose..???

Sorry, don't recognise the name...

Well thanks anyway, I'll look into the vynil.

The disc with a musician on the bench is 'Old Comrades'. If you contact the RM Musieum they will be able to assist. It isn't Bernard Whincop, it is someone, the name escapes me at the moment, who joined in the 80s.

THe guy on the front of the disc is Rich Tilley and I think the title was "Old Comrades new comrades"

The CD 'Old Comrades New Comrades' as mentioned by Deli is still available at Cinque Port Music. If you go to their site there is a picture of the front cover.
