Let's see if I can think of one that is a bit more cryptic.
In which song does the lyric suggest that Ruby should develop total amnesia?

Thank you for that, Graham. I missed it earlier, but thanks to the amazing internet, I have just listened to that part of today's show. One of the requestors was our member Don Wearmouth, so thank you Don, and well done. Perhaps the other two people who requested Ruby might find this website and joi...

Welcome to the Forum, Sandy, it's good to see that you have decided to Register. You see, you didn't need my technical help after all - was that just an excuse? I can't imagine who the "heavies" are that you refer to. I have a younger brother, and never got my own way at home! By the way, I don't un...

I had to go to London for a couple of days, and found time to pop into the massive HMV shop in Oxford Street. It was very nice to see that the slot on the shelves accorded to Ruby contained the Golden Anniversary Collection, Change Your Mind, and The Magic of Ruby Murray. There was no sign of the ot...

Which song is on which CD?
Friends, I have just uploaded to the Library a Word document listing all of Ruby's recorded songs, in alphabetical order. Each one has the Release Sequence Number and an indication of which currently available CD (or in some cases CDs) the song can be found on. I have placed it in the Lyrics section...

Friends, More news concerning the commemorative plaque to be erected on the facia of the Ulster Hall in Belfast City Centre. My last report on my negotiations with the Belfast City Council resulted in them telling me that the plaque would be erected either before the million pound refurbishment of ...

Re: The Flaws.
I think Bernie has picked up on the thought process I was going down originally - if the session was multi-miked, and all tracks were recorded on a multi-track recorder, then the original mono release could have been produced correctly. Then when EMI came to digitally re-master it, they could have g...

The only thing I could add to your brilliant explanation is that the end result is that the left hand channel from the master tape has appeared on both channels of the CD, because we do actually hear the music from the centre. If we only had the left hand channel from the master put onto the left ha...

Further to my previous message, I realise that I am mixing up recording dates with release dates. While "Come Into My Heart" and "Jimmy Unknown" were never released it was reasonable to assign a date as close as possible to the likely recording date, but in fact the actual release dates for these tw...

Hi Gerald, I am Ruby's nephew, my brother Ken is the mystery man in the photo section, my mother was Ruby's sister Pat and as for another clue, my grandfather was known as Big Dan(Ruby's Father). Regards George. Thank you for that information, George, and I do hope you and your family like what you...

Recording Dates
When Bernie discovered the acetates for "Come Into My Heart" and "Jimmy Unknown", neither had been released, and there was no indication of recording dates. So, some of you will remember, we invited guesses for likely recording dates (on the old Message Board) so as to slot them into the correct pla...

Although I am sure Ruby loved her father like a good daughter, apart from "Dear Daddy" the words of most of her other love songs are more suited to a (potential) partner. So, I am wondering if it was one of the songs about a place in Ireland that held a bond between them? If so, I would need another...

Well spotted! I suppose we can't really expect there to be no problems when 100 songs are re-recorded. I have made a couple of checks just now, and it seems to me that the Golden Anniversary Collection is the same version, but as you point out, with the vocal backing very much in the background. I c...

Phew, glad that's over! Was I the cat or the mouse? Well, when I was working, I was known as Gerry, and when a friend introduced me to his five-year old daughter by that name, she asked "if you are Gerry, where is Tom?" So I guess that makes me the mouse - pass the cheese. I always liked Dickie Vale...
