Erin Bardwell Collective 2004 ITV

Some old TV footage uncovered. From the summer of 2004 (ITV Earshot) of The Erin Bardwell Collective playing live at The Vic, Swindon, plus a bit of an interview with label founder Erin. This was at a time when the whole Pop-A-Top thing was in its early stages. Many of the musicians featured have moved on to other things or have gone solo. Here they are performing the song 'Hypocrite' by Recoldo Fleming (from the Pop-A-Top CD 'Kingston Experience' - PATCD03), with Erin Bardwell on the talking, Vox Continental, and electric piano, Matty Bane on drums (now of the Transpersonals), Pat Luszcz (ex-Charred Hearts) on lead guitar (now in The Trick Babies), Chris Lipscombe on rhythm guitar (whereabouts unknown), Nevil Banton on congas and vocals (still a Pop-A-Top artist but has taken semi-retirement), Sandra Bell on backing vocals and percussion (still currently in the live Collective band but also does solo recordings), Dean Sartain on bass (still waiting in the wings for a return), and Preston Steel on saxophone (still in his old band 'The Hamsters From Hell' who are soon to release some material on 208 Records). 

And then 'The Erin Bardwell Collective' live at the Haiti benefit February 2010 performing 'Surfin' - with Erin Bardwell on keys, Sandra Bell on vocals, Sunny Boy Gambia on Djembe, Pete Fitzsimmons on bass, Pete O'Driscoll on drums, and Ed Frankis on guitar
