Regent St Media
Here's a new link to Regent St Media and the film based on the award-winning book by Stephen Travers and Neil Fetherstonhaugh that took 30 years to write.
http://regentstmedia.com/miami-movie.html
From that site:
"The film will recreate the joy of the music scene of the showband era of the mid 1970s; when screaming fans danced on the stage because there was no room on the dance-floor; when massive ballrooms the length and breadth of Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales were packed to the rafters - standing room only! Even the mighty USA fell under the spell of The Miami Showband."

Johnny Fean tells us about Coconut Grove (It's a Lovin Spoonful song from the 60's)
" I first recorded that song 30 yrs. ago! Around 1981. It was an acoustic solo version of the song. I recorded it in a Slane studio with Eamon Carr producing. We had an idea to record an acoustic album. We didn't take it far enough to complete it. But there were some other original acoustic songs I had written along with Eamon including a solo
version of ''I never talk about her''. This was long before the Last Bandits project in 1985 when we again recorded it".
