#TOOCOOLTUESDAY : HAMMER FILMS JULIE EGE SINGS TOUCH ME / STOP IT I LIKE IT AND THEN STOPS!

#TOOCOOLTUESDAY Over at our FACEBOOK FAN PAGE we posed the question, 'Can you name the Cushing / Hammer films co-star who had a fleeting recording career?' Who would have thought that the answer was glamorous actress and co star of Hammer films, 'Legend of the Seven Golden Vampires', JULIE EGE was the answer we were looking for?

JULIE EGE'S RECORDING CARRER started in 1971, with the release of the single, Love written by John Lennon, with a 'b-side' of 'In One Of Your Weaker Moments' (CBS 5431) It is believed the single came with this naked 'talent shot' below.

NOT ANOTHER NOTE was heard from Ege until 1977, when she released, Touch Me / Stop It I Like It (Starbox SX 1158)... certainly not the kinda happy sing-a-long ditty, you would want to plop onto the turn table, at your grandma's 80th birthday party, family get together! Ege was approached by a recording company with a contract to record some further songs, and release a whole album! But, wisely Ege realised she probably was not the best of singers (!) and her short singing career ended there.

#TOOCOOLTUESDAY: THE FAMILY CUSHING ON A HOLIDAY IN BOGNOR!

#TOOCOOLTUESDAY: HERE IS A VERY RARE PIC of the Cushing Family on hoilday, in BOGNOR, of all places! From the left: GEORGE Cushing, Peter Father, then NELLIE Peter's Mother. Next ARTHUR Peter's Uncle, and Nellie's sister in law, WYN . An unnamed chap on the far right. At the front Peter's brother, DAVID on the left and a young smiling PETER on the right! The reverse side of this pic comes from a time when, a jobbing photographer would take your photograph at a sea-side resort, and process it on photographic paper that was also a postcard....so when you picked up your pic, you could write on the reverse side and post it off to your relatives and friends!
