Lou if you dont mind me asking are there any plans for any further releases ? and if so could you perhaps give us a heads up on what may be planned thanks mike

on the other hand if you go back and read the threads you mention you will also read plenty of people also posting comments in favour of such (ok maybe not so much in some) same as this thread am sure that if someone could be bothered to total the amount of different viewpoints posted in this thread,it will show that your view that this is some sort of "son of satan" thread is flawed

err hang on dean, thats more like personal abuse rather than "constant negativity" and while am sure not happy with such, I certainly wouldnt be, there is a proven site mechanism for dealing with such matters I don't really get what bringing it up has got to do with your criticisms of constant negativity , a different subject surely ?
-
read recently on one of links posted that the cover had nought to do with him on reply to deans bit disagree with the "constant negativity" description shows just how valid that description is but overall myself say its good to hear that people who can't handle others posting different views than their own no longer post idea is that offer a place where things can get discussed from all viewpoints if people cant handle that then that's their problem not sites mike
-
a good suggestion Ian what will do is split your post from topic and move to members forum that way will keep this thread relevant to the subject quick tip to all - with any suggestions like this may work better if post either direct in the members forum or if use the report feature if done in thread always a chance that team may not see or may see but may slip or even forget
-
yep, guessed you aint seen it thats why I posted will merge this and that in a bit
-
best sometimes to try the search out as some of subjects have had a fair bit of talk about here's just one - may be more
-
thread and a half I keep looking for all these abuse/insults that people seem to be refering to yet all i can see is 3 or 4 people putting up their own personal views with maybe 2 "strong" critical views whats the problem with that?
-
no probs last bit of site tech crap and i be out of here there's now an improved "contact us" link at bottom of every page which should improve the help can give to anyone who is having login probs cheers mike
-
that means that you already had an account on here not much use for you now but if anyone else reading this ever gets that thing to do is hit the "forgotten password" link and enter that email site will then send you link to get a new password

The Philadelphia International Records 40th Anniversary Campaign View full article

News of some interesting going ons concerning a campaign that will be launched in the early part of 2012... The Philadelphia International Records 40th Anniversary Campaign Harmless Records are proud to announce a campaign to celebrate the 40th anniversary of one of the greatest black music record companies of all time - Philadelphia International Records. Founded by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff in 1971, the label launched with the album "Going East" by Billy Paul in October 1971 but really hit its stride throughout 1972 with a brace of international hits from veteran Philadelphia based signings like the O'Jays, Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes and the Three Degrees. Legendary A&R visionary Clive Davis was responsible for bringing the Philly hit machine to the Columbia group for distribution - a gamble which proved to be extraordinarily successful as the major distributor struggled to keep up with the hits that were pouring out from Sigma Sound studio in downtown Philadelphia - the recording home of P.I.R. where smashes like "Backstabbers", "Love Train", "Me & Mrs Jones", "If You Don't Know Me By Now" and numerous others all rolled out in 1972 alone. Just two years later, Philadelphia International became the second largest black-owned company in the U.S.A. following Berry Gordy's Motown, which had similarly forged its identity with a trademark sound from Detroit. Jump forward 40 years and Philadelphia International is still independent and still owned by its original founders, Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff - an extraordinary achievement in an age where most other independent companies (including Motown) have long since been absorbed into large conglomerates. We are delighted to be welcoming Kenny Gamble to the UK in mid November where he will doing a number of specially selected interviews to support the launch of the campaign in January through February 2012. click to enlarge In light of the above, we felt it was only fitting to celebrate the 40 anniversary of Philadelphia International with some brand new "Philly 40" PIR releases which have been long overdue and will be eagerly anticipated around the world.... HURTXCD111 Released: 16/01/12 Philadelphia International: The Re-Edits 21 of the hottest PIR Re-Edits which have been done by PIR enthusiasts from around the world. Fully approved by Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff. HURTXCD118 Released: 30/01/12 Philadelphia International: The Roots of PIR What happened before PIR? Ace historian and compiler Richard Searling compiles the pre PIR gems from the Gamble & Huff stable plus an exclusive DVD interview with Kenny Gamble. HURTXCD112 Released: 13/02/12 Philadelphia International: The Tom Moulton Remixes The godfather of the Disco Mix and inventor of the 12" format returns to the label where he started and remixes 15 more original PIR tracks to add to 16 of his best original PIR mixes. HURTBOX1 Released: 27/02/12 Philadelphia International: 40th Anniversary Box Set PIR expert Ralph Tee goes through the complete history of PIR with a lovingly compiled 10CD deluxe box set with 60 page booklet plus an exclusive DVD interview with Kenny Gamble. thanks to stepka for the info and pics pass on -

For those Minehead bound next year here's the latest word on 2012's Southport Weekender Southport Weekender 48 The 25th Anniversary Party Friday 11th May - Sunday 13th May 2012 Butlins Holiday Resort, Minehead, Somerset TA24 5SH The just released current provisional line up djs go like this... Frankie Knuckles David Morales Danny Krivit Kenny Dope Kerri Chandler Tony Humphries Julio Bashmore Andre Lodemann Joe Claussell (Latin set) Derrick Carter (disco set) Karizma Joey Negro DJ Jazzy Jeff David Rodigan Fabio & Grooverider Al Kent Norman Jay Gilles Peterson Mr Scruff Greg Wilson "This is the earliest point in years that even part of our line up has been revealed. Without saying who was playing, the almost unrivaled reputation of the UK's friendliest party has ensured that all of our 6500 places for our 25th anniversary event have already sold out. We're sure you'll agree that this is a remarkable achievement. The event moved to its new home in Minehead in 2011, slightly increasing its capacity but maintaining its all important vibe. The new Minehead site offers us 5 separate dance arenas covering soul, hip hop, vocal and deep house, R&B, disco, techno and more, from a carefully selected pool of globally recognised, tastemaking DJs and some of the best residents in the UK. The 25th anniversary will be lead by a Def Mix reunion, as it sees David Morales and Frankie Knuckles reunited as headliners of our largest room, The Powerhouse. Many more DJs will be added to this line up after Christmas, along with all our fantastic live acts." more info including cancellation list and policy details via the weekender website link below http://www.southportweekender.co.uk/
