  1. There are loads of copies of Yasuko Agawa on Discogs.
  2. Maze on numerous visits over the years and more recently The Impressions on their final tour, just incredible. Gladys Knight - Blenheim Palace - She was amazing and still has it, all of ‘it’. Tower of Power - a couple of times and their energy and musicianship is fabulous, can’t wait for them to return to the UK.
  3. Some of you might remember the Essential Modern Soul forum which began as an email list back in 1999. It moved to an internet discussion board in 2005 and carried on that way for around 11 years. The forum abruptly disappeared after the board host switched their servers off, and that was that. Anyhow, we set a new board up as a trial a few years ago but didn’t go wide with the news and it faltered. This time, we’re trying again and we’re looking for new members so, if you fancy it, hop on over to https://essentialmodernsoul.freeforums.net. A place to chat about new and old music, share podcasts, radio shows, sales and wants and a bit of idle chit chat. We look forward to welcoming you, if you’re that way inclined. Thanks for reading this far. Cheers and hope to see you there. Gail

  5. Recorded delivery items are not tracked through the system. They go in the normal first or second class post and then they get picked out by the delivering postman and a signature should be obtained. My experience is that some postmen take their job seriously, others are too lazy to lug parcels back to the sorting office or are temps that just don't care. If you really want to be sure of delivery then Special Delivery is the only way as this is kept separate from the regular first class mail and is tracked step by step through the system.
  6. The Ramada has now sold all rooms in the hotel. A couple of alternatives.............. The Lodge is next door to the Ramada THE LODGE The Holiday Inn is a 5 min walk HOLIDAY INN People stayed in both these places last year and had no complaints as far as we're aware,
  7. We're heading off for breakfast and then to Port Solent to set up. It's a beautiful morning here on the sunny South Coast. If you've not made any plans for your day yet why not come and join us.

  8. There may still be a couple of rooms left at the Ramada but if you're too late the next best place to stay is called the Lodge and it's a stone's throw from the venue. Here's their website, https://www.thelodgebandb.org.uk/. If you haven't bought your tickets yet, please do, there's a paypal link on EMS. If you want to pay another way, please get in touch via pm. May thanks Gail x
