"I Want You Want" (SMA 1619) features this innovative style of singing again. Track 2, "Treasured Memories" deals with an emotional subject, the loss of a loved one.

It's 45 years since Mouldy Old Dough got to number one! To celebrate this milestone we're issuing this hour long DVD called "The first 30 years" (SMA VID 002).

Besides, it contains some priceless interviews with the boys and some press reports which sadly no longer exist. This is a great collectors item and certainly one for posterity!
