May 11, 200916 yr Author peel off the label Pete and you might find its a Carstairs That would really make my day
May 11, 200916 yr Author You were lucky it wasn't a new record Pete! I never thought of it that way, thanks Gene
May 11, 200916 yr Send it back in the same mailer Pete & say you're not happy cos there's a slight crackle on the intro.
May 11, 200916 yr Author To add insult to injury, I just played the EX copy of the Ad Libs WD on Karen that arrived this morning and it hisses all the way through.
May 11, 200916 yr To add insult to injury, I just played the EX copy of the Ad Libs WD on Karen that arrived this morning and it hisses all the way through. My copy of the Snake does that tooo.......

May 11, 200916 yr Excuse me but I couldn't help noticing that your avatar shows a baby committing an act of mindless violence against the Carstairs. Is this the result of indoctrination or did said baby actually choose to follow this path of wanton destruction? Ian D

May 11, 200916 yr bits and peices breaking new sounds Somebody help me (Get myself back together again)
May 11, 200916 yr She was born hating crap music Ian, you should see what she did to Bobby Kline she has great taste in music then Pete - but you shouldve kept the Bobby Kline to get her off to sleep at night!!
May 11, 200916 yr It's okay, keep going Pete,send him a copy of Dean Barlow - "Tird Window from the left",he''ll know how angry you are. No-one wants that in their collection,and if he's a dealer,he'll struggle to get rid of it. Edited May 11, 200916 yr by KevH
May 11, 200916 yr That Pete Smith fella. Broken more Northern Soul records than anyone else I know. Think it works out a ratio of 1 smashed record per kid. That's ok. My little luv smashed 3 in one go when she jumped around the living room Edited May 11, 200916 yr by Benji
May 11, 200916 yr Really? I just sent a snotty message complaining I've had 2 demos and 2 issues (gave up after that), never had the styrene one though all had background on both sides. Assumed that was why I never heard it out that much.
May 11, 200916 yr Pete, about three years ago I received a Pat Lewis on Solid Hit through the post from a U.K. seller. It was packaged identically to yours and the vinyl in a very similar condition. I was shell shocked at that moment but convinced it could only have been an insurance scam.
May 11, 200916 yr I've had 2 demos and 2 issues (gave up after that), never had the styrene one though all had background on both sides. Assumed that was why I never heard it out that much. Had a styrene demo (looked unplayed) which had background noise, replaced this with a stryrene issue which plays okay. soulmac.
May 11, 200916 yr Had a styrene demo (looked unplayed) which had background noise, replaced this with a stryrene issue which plays okay. soulmac. I've got the styrene issue... looks mint, plays dreadful with background hiss all the way through..
May 11, 200916 yr never had a record come broken or with no cardboard stiffeners, seen petes broken 1 this morning and thought thats shit,then an hour late me postman comes with a 45 thin cardboad mailer containing 7 red and white motown demos from a shop in london with absolutley no packing whatever, luckily no damage
May 11, 200916 yr can't quite read it is the title i've got two parts, seriously though it never ceases to amaze me i had one come from the states once rattling round a 12" pizza box god knows how it didnt get damaged. kev
May 13, 200916 yr 7 red and white motown demos from a shop in london come on, name and shame, so that others can avoid or at least tell them to use better packaging if they buy from them (or were the records a bargain? ) Edited May 13, 200916 yr by michael-j
May 13, 200916 yr come on, name and shame, so that others can avoid or at least tell them to use better packaging if they buy from them (or were the records a bargain? ) too much of a bargain mate ,this is my baby the guys got red & whites , green & whites lots of black issues in the tmg500s, best bargain was a gladys knight walk in my shoes demo, prob is i aint got enough dough to buy the lot
May 13, 200916 yr This record collecting caper isnt all its cracked up to be is it ? Play it with a plough blade Pete, forget the stylus. It's whats in the RUTS that count. Sorry anyway mate. Tony T BONE. OZ.
May 13, 200916 yr Had a styrene demo (looked unplayed) which had background noise, replaced this with a stryrene issue which plays okay. soulmac. I have a vinyl demo of the Ad Libs , plays beautifully, no hiss or intrusive noise at all ...
