Orotava Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Is it just me or is the theft of records becoming more prevalent - a sign of the times perhaps? Really hope the guy gets them back and the perpetrator gets what`s coming. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Stockholmsoulfox Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Stealing someone's record collection which has taken a lifetime to amass is tantamount to stealing someone's soul..no puns intended.

ashley Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Don't know the guy but feel for him. Had some records go missing myself, its not nice! Most things have been covered in previous posts likewe all know when where and who from we bought a certain tune, the person(if you can call em that) will probably want to move them on, but some people will want a bargain unfortunately and wont care where it came from. Don't know about other people but theres not a lot on the scene who know where I live so that's got to be a starting point. hope he gets information to get his records back and I hope the c..t that took em gets whats coming to them. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

night nurse Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 The soul scene never changes,there always were thieving bastards about, really hope Melv gets his records back first, then look out for a deserved kicking. The sad thing is, already plenty of people will know where they are and who has them, there will always be a market for stolen records because thats the way it always has been just hard to prove. Even worse, when it blows over the same thieving bastards will be welcomed back on the scene with open arms, who could buy records and not tell anybody about their"new" sounds? and nearly everybody says where they got them from Although i haven´t seen Melv for many a year i know what a sound and genuine bloke he is ,i for one wouldn´t want to touch one of these records! hope this mess gets cleared up quick. Haven´t got too many sounds left but if someone sends me Melvs address i will put a few in the post to start him off again Steve what a top bloke your truly what this scean is all about shame there is not many folks like you around even though i don't know you have a cracking Christmas 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Spacehopper Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 forgive me for asking but how did these records get stolen ? pretty sure i read on facebook melvin came home to find them missing and nothing else touched??..which makes this case of stolen records sader than craigs being stolen in an exeter bar or the other stories of record boxes stolen from cars etc they obviously knew what they were after or where they could get shot of them..so one way or another must be known to people on the soul scene really hoping they turn up,cant imagine how it must feel to find an empty music room! dean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Md Records Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Unfortunately we're not talking about a few quid here, judging by the list. Good chance the person is not a regular record dealer, or DJ, but some one who now has a few grands worth of tunes, but needs to turn them into cash - Maybe a reward for information - no questions asked - very strong chance that people will be offered these tunes.

Guest Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I'm speechless and saddened that this would happen to anyone on the soul scene. I have a very meagre collection from donkeys years ago. I'm not a collector and really don't have much use for them. None worth very much (I don't think) but I do have The Gems on Riverside, I think it's a white label, a "Demo" and probably not worth a jot, but I'd be happy to donate it if it's any use?

Guest sharmo 1 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 These records have been nicked by someone Mel knows or has been to his house. I'm certain Mel must know them or has told them where he lives. Mel I'm sorry to hear this news mate. Where are you based ? are the records in dj box's or cardboard box's and are the sleeves new ?. Big question is Who's next ? if we now have specialist thieves in our circle we should all start thinking about making our collection safer. I'm not being funny here chaps but some one on soul source must know something , or even the thieve/s themselves may even be reading this. We're all targets now . Regards Simon.
