Book Reviews!

The Beckindale Bugle

THE GRESH - A Lifetime in Show-Biz - is a lovely relaxing read, bringing back memories of many favourite stars, and providing some fascinating insights. I polished it off in three sessions, and can tell you it was a real "feel good" experience, an excellent choice for anybody who remembers the TV and radio golden days of the '60s, '70s and '80s, and who has ever queued up for the pleasure of shaking hands with a favourite star and gaining a cherished autograph at public appearances.

Carl gets interviewed by Neil Sean at The Midland Hotel

Carl Gresham meets up with NBC Royalty and Entertainment broadcaster Neil Sean at The Midland Hotel, Bradford. The purpose of the meeting was to record a segment of video about Carl's meeting with Jayne Mansfield, to be added to a box set on her life being made by NBC for the American Cable Network. Miss Mansfield was a Hollywood actress, coming to England for the first time to appear at Batley Variety Club in 1967. Carl was the press officer at the time, charged with showing Miss Mansfield the sights of West Yorkshire and famously visiting Harry Ramsden's Fish and Chip shop in Guiseley.

The meeting was intended to give a British perspective to the video, and it was for this reason that Carl was contacted by Neil (interestingly, he's from Mirfield originally) having found details of Carl and Miss Mansfield on the internet via his Gresh website.

45's Record Sale

At Last the Gresh has started to include all his 45's and LP's that are still in stock and for sale. The Minimum price I'll accept is £25.00 which includes P & P anywhere on mainland U.K. There are some exceptions and these prices are clearly marked for each item.

So here we go with the 45's - all listed alphabetically according to record Label. so CBS with prefix AAG are at the beginning and CBS with Numbers only as prefix appear at the end of the list. I would be prepared to "Do a Deal" for quantity purchases, and please remember these 45s are in Virgin/Unplayed condition and 99% of them are in their original record company sleeves.
