Family foundation

Has anyone heard of em?

Think they were from Manchester and judging by the names of a couple of the tracks i reckon they were.

Express yourself

10 Snide E's

and the clincher:

Gunchester (Shoo Ba Doo Da Day)

ive heard express yourself and 10 snide e's, has a lyric in it that says something like:

"Mr drugs man have you any e's?,
Yes sir, yes sir, jus' try these,
10 for a ton and ill pack 'em if you please,
but little did i know they were 10 snide e's"


would like to get hold of some of their stuff but its rare, just posting on the off chance anyone on here knows about them or where you can get tunes by them or if anyone has their album - i think they only did one called 'one blood'

cheers

Funnily enough I was sorting some tunes out last night, came across the said album, was mulling over whether to sell it.

interesting.

do you know anymore about them, did they play out much in manchester?

would love a copy on a CD if you decide not to part with it.

Iv met Johnny Jay a few times, he used to be a manager of a band called the Dust Junkys and one of my best mates was in the band.

Only found at he was involved with the Family Foundation after the band split so never asked him about anything related to dance music :| ...shame really cos I would have done... and got him to sign me vinyls too lol

Johhny jay and the development corporation, franschene, family foundation, parradice, global are all the same people. They are from Longsight and i think mc shine was from beswick. I think they were in the same click as Mike e bloc and went round them circles.
Did'nrt know Jonny Jay was manager of dust junkies, top band, seen em a few times. Once supporting black grape at the apollo. The lead singer was nicky locket of mc tunes fame
