Not good at making offers thoughas I'm tight and this often causes offense.

Whoa! Easy. I've never said that it was a soul record. Where did I write that? Not that it matters considering about 50% of the records being sold as "soul" on the many different forums though... And further to that, why did you bring it to the 100 Club to sell if it wasn't a soul/r&b record? And why did someone buy it? Probably because they like one of the tunes on this particular 45. And it's very funky and rocks a club like hell. Not a northern soul floor perhaps, but that's not really relevant. It has also got a Motown connection having been released on US Soul and swedish Tamla Motown.

Someone asked a while back if anyone had a copy of Jack Hammer "Swim" for sale. It did happen on this forum, so I thought I should offer my copy. I sold my last copy for £40, and this new one I found yesterday in a nearby shop here in my hometown of Malmoe, Sweden. I ofcourse want to make as big a profit as possible. I've already been offered £50 cash. Can anyone better that?

The differance is i told him it was crap!and not soul,i try`d my best to give him the full picture,even calling him a tosser for wanting it!,like i say this is soul/source and selling stuff like this give soul/source a bad name?,if its because its rare label just stick it on E-bay!i have no probblems with that!,i will ask the mate what he thinks "now" bet he aint so happy now...

Take the money!,tight git!!!cant believe your give someone a hard time over this,trouble is if you E-bay it it might not sell!,then you wasted a resonable offer,could end up costing you $.

Oh dear bloody god!!! You sure jump to conclusions today. I'm not giving anyone a hard time. I AM trying to work out a trade deal with the "£50-guy". Seriously, isn't it YOU who are giving ME a hard time here? Do you think that every non-soul record that is advertised for sale here should be listed like...

Liz Verdi - Think It Over - COLUMBIA - £200

* please note, this is not a soul record *

Robert John - Raindrops Love And Sunshine - A&M - £40

* please note, this is not a soul record *

...to avoid letting people down?

The person that has offered me £50 for Jack Hammer knows FULL WELL what it sounds like and probably couldn't care less whether you think it is a soul record or not. So does the people who are bidding on the current copy up on eBay (£26 now, more than 3 days to go). This is a record that sells because there is a demand for it. I'm not saying that it is a soul tune but whether it is or not is irrelevant.

Have I offended you recently? Why the agressive tone of your messages? Was it my smilie that upset you? I didn't mean to.

So what if it is not a soul record? A very large percentage of the records discussed, sold and wanted on this forum are not any kind of soul records either. A very large portion of all northern soul that people buy, dance to, play out in clubs, etc. is not any kind of soul music at all. Should it all be banned from the site? I personally think that would be excellent, since practically all of it is a pile of steaming shit, but then again I have always been in a minority belonging as I do to the fanatic, purist, racist, lunatic fringe movement of the soul scene.

Dont believe this,either i have got very bad taste or you live on another planet?.

Think mp3 requeird,let everybody have a giggle!,i have been around too long,and it must be affecting my ears!,thank god its not affected my looks though

well, we definitely live on the same planet ........ but you might have bad taste, more likely though that we have different taste.

I can say in all honesty that it has gone down a storm when I've played it ..... and it went down i would say because it has a great beat and is catchy. Most of the people dancing would not have had a clue who it was either.

Of course ... if you don't like it as a track thats fair enough .... I'm just saying that it goes down a storm where i play. The first place I heard it was in a club called SOUL in stockholm ...... and there also being played to a full dancefloor.

leave the poor lad alone, Hope you got a good deal Seb,
