It's A Wal Hit Wonder!

[Happy Jack]

Rather unfairly, Charlie Dore is remembered by many as a One Hit Wonder. She's had rather more of a career than that suggests!

I bought that album..........and the up-tempo numbers had Alan Tarney's hands all over it. Not sure who it is playing the Wal in this clip though.

The Bass player looks suspiciously like Keith Chegwin

And while we are at it, I think Imagination's bass player used to appear with a different bass every time, so this might be the only Wal appearance? (and I presume the bass line was actually a synth?)

I was (still am really) a huge Imagination fan, and Ashley Ingram appeared with Wals on several occasions (I'm sure I had an old VHS recorded off the Tube or the Word or something).  I wanted a Wal for sure.  On the records, the bass was clearly a synth, and it took decades to learn that it was almost certainly the Roland SH1000 making that sound.  Live, I'm pretty sure that bass guitar was played over the top of synths, but sometimes the bass was just synth (and not played by any band member).
