Was thinking of putting The M.V.P.'s: Turning My Heartbeat Up on Ebay for £15 - £20 'cos I saw that it had been on Mr Manship's website for that price for the same condition M-

Would this still be an accurate-ish figure or has the credit crunch hit vinyl prices too...

How about sticking all of your value questions on one posting, that way someone might be able to give you a response to them in one go.

John Manship charges top whack for records because....

a. He pays overheads - tax, vat, staff wages, heating, lighting etc.

b. He can.

£10 tops to everyone else.

Yes... good point... I've got a telephone call booked for this afternoon with a prominent soulie on here so hopefully I'll stop bothering you. For now I have just one more question...

Eddie Foster: I Never New... been sat in my box for donkey's years... just played it and wow what memories... just seen it on ebay for silly money... me thinks that can't be right... How do you tell the difference between an original and a boot?

How much... last one for today... I pwomise!

Were you naked when you took this picture of Eddie Foster, I can see your reflection in the record.

sorry ken .....this is a pop record plain and simple....you might go all starry eyed when you hear it....Me I long ago recognised it as POP!!!.THIS AIN'T THE ONLY CRAP PLAYED AT WIGIN. .In the fullness of time the sh*t eventually sinks to the bottom

I disagree...think its just been hammered...and like all tracks in any genre...the most popular ones tend to get thrown in the attic never to be seen again...MVPs is still a good track no matter what anyone says...again...not my cup of tea...but I recognise it as a good record...just because every man and his dog has heard it, doesnt change my opinion.

"more than enough to fill your loving cup"

anyway have to agree this is ostensibly a pop record but it was great at the time, atmospheric, excellent dancer, the business really...don't think the years have been too kind for it but in 76 and 77 this was one of my favourites at Wigan. Don't play it much nowadays.

spot on pete,However too many people can't recognise this.Because as iv'e said because it was played at wigin or where ever,they elevate it to a position..it don't deserve.........just say "l don't care if it's a pop record l like it".....and be done with it. IT AIN'T SOUL AS WE KNOW IT.

Again i don't like things cause i heard em' at Wigan,just like em' and no-one can tell me what feels soulfull to me,pop record or whatever loads of shite played at Wigan but who gives a shite.your anti Wigan stance is boring.......... B side someone please.

Edited July 26, 200816 yr by ken

It may be a pop record, but I think you'll find that it was actually a Levine spin at the mecca in 75. I really love the "it is by a white artist therefore it's Wigan crap" attitude. Other tracks from around the same era that were mecca were David & the Giants "Superlove" & "Ten Miles High", The present "Many's The Slip"(Levines Vocal To Bok To Bach), and others often regarded as Wigan tunes.

They are "Northern Soul" along with Linda Jones & Garnett Mimms etc. and they were part of the "Northern Soul Scene". OK they may not be soul.

Sorry to highjack the thread, but this site is for Rare & Northern Soul. Some people may not like particular tracks, but that's life.

Don't forget that white "pop" records have been played since the scene evolved and are still being discovered & played in the scene today. Can't blame Wigan for that.

Edited July 26, 200816 yr by ken

in the beginning there was and still is the soul scene.Dave godin coined the daft term northern soul,because the soul music played up north was differant to that being played in say London.Some people have taken this a step further and just added any old rubbish that was played out and about and put it under the banner of northern soul,as if northern soul was/is a whole new music genre.It is and should be in my book.....just soul music.

yeh ken ditto?

Agree with everything you say Paul. Apart from Superlove being any good. Ten Miles High, now you're talking!

romour has it DAVID as in the giants was david cassidy?.......we surely can't put the pop stuff in the same league as the great linda jones and garnett mimms.......the world has officially gone mad

Rumours wrong then it was David Huff.

But have to agree it can't be compared with either Linda or Garnett.

I was not putting those tracks in the same league as Linda Jones or Garnett Mimms. I was merely saying that on the Northern soul scene both danceable pop records, were played along side real soul records because they the beat & the feel of the authentic stuff. Oh and Pete I also did not say that I liked the david & the giants tracks, I just said because they were pop they are immediatly regarded as Wigan tunes as well as the MPVs & others.

To me Northern Soul is not actually a music genre, but a music scene.

The rumour I heard back in the day was that David & The Giants were in fact the Osmonds. A fact proved because they were on the Crazy Horse Label . That probably makes Sam Ambrose Merrell! .

Well it was arranged and conducted by the great and legendary HORACE OTT.

The Northern Scene is more than just a Deep Soul scene with a beat. The records that get played, always were, and should be dictated by the dance floor. Not by individuals.

I mean if you just want Soul records why bother with Northern Soul?

f--- the soul content its the beat that counts i remember you and soulfull bob doing backflips to this at the casino .

And Fu**ing anything sung by Candi Staton including YHRF is more soulful than MVP.s.This site is becoming less and less to do with soul music and more and more to do with Pop music and Rock and Roll.And i don,t want to know if a casino classics record came out with blue,pink or Friggin yellow vinyl either.

Good for you,so what !! read a different thread then......and mine is yella'

Ken as you well know it,s an addiction,and some may say i have argumentative tendencies.

It is a good record and what is it with the word pop music cause it's made by say a white person. Does that mean every soul artist has to be black so if your white and your making soul music you don't count as soul.
