Ultra Spec
80's band variety of styles - these songs are copyrighted originals and are looking for work. Maybe a band somewhere would like to pick them up or maybe there is an advert or movie out there somewhere waiting to give one of these songs a home........ e-mail me - would love to hear your thoughts....
Members at the time of this recording -
Sandy - vocals
Colin - funky bass player and vocals
Mike - keys
Steve - Sexy sax
John - drums and vocals
Martin - singer and guitaristBand/artist history
Local scene in UK. Anything from weddings, parties, clubs, you name it.....Have you performed in front of an audience?No live gigs anymore.
Your musical influences
Wide variety of tastes and styles.Anything else?
These songs were recorded at Jacobs studios - as a demo and have been cleaned up to eliminate some of the hiss.Hi all, Mike here. Guessing as its been seven years since the last posting, I am probably too late, (technophobe i'm afraid). But in case any of the band do stumble on this, HELLO.
I'm still in Chilton, and still married, but retired from gigs in 1996. (Sold the keyboards too).
Hope you are all ok, and i loved hearing those demo's again.
Maybe speak to some of you soon.
MikeOMG
a lot of things I read this evening that I did not see before...
Ok .. I am am old fart ...
But to get some photos and more tunes on our ultraspec site would be lovely.
So e-mail anything to me and I will post!
Alone .. My tape disintegrated .. I would like to be able to add this and other tunes to the list.
Any others .. evern crappy recordings of any tunes would be good ...
U never know who may want to play around with them.
I had so much fun recently doing on-line recording with a world class Sax player from France. We did a cover of "Ain't no stopping us now!".
Lemme know if you want to hear it .. the brass section is real, backing vocs are amazing and bass player "funks!"
Let me know whatever you want to post .. pics. music, etc.. files ..

Take care ..
ThHi All,
Yes, Martin again. I can't find a copy of Alone, Christmas Magic or Linda anywhere. Can anyone e-mail a copy to me? I'd like to have a go at re-doing Linda sometime.
I've got a couple of recordings of some live gigs I did as a solo artist in Nottingham if anyone would like to hear it.
Anyway, who is still playing out there in Ultra Spec land? I guess John is still very active on the music front but he always was a driving force in the band and probably still continues to produce kool stuf. Steve, I guess you still dabble with big band stuff. Mike, you were still playing when last I heard. Let me know please.
Stay happy
Martin

Hi All, Welcome to Memory Land Mike. Good to see you on here. Steve Rees has a recording of Misty from the last gig we did I think. Let's see if this can be uploaded on here. Also, that old photo from 1978 should be here I reckon. Cheers Martin
