Just been asked about this... the 'hot' ranking is automatically added to an event in listing to indicate that the event is getting a lot of interest from members. There are several automatic factors that need to be matched/exceded for this to be shown on an event listing To avoid promoters 'gamimg' the guide, the factors and the qualifications used do and will change regularly and will remain non-public cheers

3 x members it seems have been ripped off recently by a member pm-ing them out of the blue and offering them high value 45s that they have recently posted 'wants' for in our wants forum When they agree to purchase they then are asked to pay to a email via friends and family paypal payment By paying in such a way the member then loses any protection or chance of refund if the deal goes wrong, ensuring that the scammer keeps the members cash As the 45 offered are accompied by made up 45 scans, it is 100% in such cases that this 'offer' is indeed a rip off ------------------------------------------------------------------ Posting the below info in the hope that it will make all members aware of what can happen if they don't check sellers backgrounds/info and hopefully help avoid any other similar occurances The methods used on here by 2 members - more than likely the same person follow below 0 or low post members with no feedback, history Uses gmail emails both for joining the site and for the paypal friends and family payment Most times uses good english, but there were slips up, plus a notable lack of knowledge on normal vinyl trading Gives uk town as location, but uses vpns The scans of 45 used have all been low quality (400 x 400) and appears are made up of online images edited in such a way so they don't show up as identical in google image searchs Used attachements in past and for the latest used the freeimage website for hosting the scans https://freeimage.host/i/jpg23.HYa5TMb eg two recent ones used note that the vinyl part of the scan is identical in both images history --------------------------------------- account nathanevans closed after posting dodgy id and scan of a high value 45 for 'sale' in Nov 2022 see https://www.soul-source.co.uk/forums/topic/435027-sales-alert-nathanevans-details-pm-selling/ ------------------------------------------------------- account muter007 joined site in 2017 gave real name as Jiri Svatek and email ice_kid007@azet.sk Email address changed to jackbennet.553@gmail.com (previously ice_kid007@azet.sk) by member. December 2, 2022 account closed in 2022 after mass pm-ing members for 'wants' f&f paypal scam https://www.soul-source.co.uk/forums/topic/435059-bare-sales-posts-by-new-or-obscure-members/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- an account opened jan 2023 sharing similar details and methods as above name soulattack emails used Mbalog1998@gmail.com and sonnymontana9@gmail.com ripped off 2 members using the above 2 images and payments via f&f paypal and fake scans account now closed ----------------------------------------------- all 3 the same guy? looks likely as said account muter007 joined site in 2017 back then gave real name as Jiri Svatek and email ice_kid007@azet.sk come back in 2022 and then tried this scam out with 'new' gmail emails anyone know this guy? if so ask get in touch via pm asp ------------------------------------------------------ 3 members have been ripped off it appears This amount was kept low thanks to members informing us asp so once aware we could take immediate action and close the accounts Ask if you do in the future get any 'dodgy' trading pms then please report/flag the pm asp so we can have a look at whats goin gon ---------------------------------------------------- bottom line there is always an element of risk if you use f&f payments Obviously a risk of the seller being dishonest etc but you do also lose protection if the 45 gets lost or delayed due to various reasons. With unknown or new members or indeed if there is any doubt, simply do not use them!

looks like this 'member' was the same one as last time. joined up via a vpn and then pm'd 5 members straight away after joining offering to fullfill thier wants, 2 member sent this guy $ via f&f paypal this method of contacting possible buyers and dealing via pms, bypasses any form of validation we could setup we are only aware when a member informs us we did cut back pms and other features for new members after last time but if you get a mesage from a new member who has 0 posts and demands payment by f&f then as been said many times simple advice is don't deal with the member any mention of f&f should be a red flag in such cases

Do not pay any NEW Soul Source member via the friends and family method on paypal There is a very good chance that if you do you will lose your money!!! We (soul source) can not help you due to the way paypal works Any 'new' member with 0 or low posts selling items and asking you to pay by F&F is highly suspect! Any 'new' member with 0 posts pm-ing you reference posted wants and asking you to pay by F&F is highly suspect! DO NOT PAY - REPORT/FLAG THE PM AND MEMBER ASP!!!!!
-
warning alert, looks like the munter guy is back under a new account no posts just pm-ing wants would like to think that people be wary but appears not! https://www.soul-source.co.uk/profile/48041-soulattack/ do not engage!

5 New Penrose 45s from Daptone Records View full article
-
Press release from Daptone tells us all about a upcoming 'flurry' of 45s due out this February 2023, expanded details and audio below... Penrose Records' Flurry of 45s Out February 24th. Pre-order Now. Heading into the lovers' season Penrose Records' crack team of meteorologists are predicting a flurry of 45s, with a high chance of soulfulness, blowing into an independent record shop near you. On Friday February 24th look out for five brand new singles from Penrose artists: Thee Sacred Souls, Vicky Tafoya, The Altons, Los Yesterdays, and making his Penrose debut, Jonny Benavidez. All five will be available in advance at our Valentine's Day Record Release Showcase at The Observatory in Santa Ana on February 14th, featuring live performances by The Altons, Los Yesterdays, Vicky Tafoya, and a special guest appearance by Jonny Benavidez. One show only. Get your tickets now! Links to listen (2) and pre-order/save (all) Thee Sacred Souls "Future Lover" / "For Now" by Thee Sacred Souls Someone's at the door.... Who is it? It's Thee Sacred Souls and they've come bearing a pair of massive tunes off their debut album, this time on the convenient 7" 45rpm format. "Future Lover", a fan favorite of their live set, is beat-ballad perfection, punctuated by silky strings and a pleading call and response hook that serves as the perfect compliment to Josh's passionate lead. "For Now" is a sparse, brooding track whose protagonist pulls at the listeners heartstrings as he struggles to make sense of love that's fading away. https://daptone.ffm.to/prs1018.GTQ Vicky Tafoya Anyone who has had the pleasure of seeing Vicky sing live knows she's one of the most talented singers in the game. Her presence and command on stage has the unique ability to make you feel like she's singing each and every note directly to you. Just being in her orbit for 30 min will have you walking away feeling like you've experienced something special. On this single Vicky flexes her range and writing chops with two deep, deep bluesy ballads of the highest caliber. "Love Don't Treat You Fair" is a tale of despair that creeps along like a long lost Little Willie John session for King. With "The Moment" Vicky delivers an incredibly soulful vocal (ala Etta James) that is so natural and classic its hard to imagine it wasn't recorded 50 years ago. If bluesy soul is what you're after...look no further! https://daptone.ffm.to/prs1019.GTQ The Altons The Altons turn up the heat with another platter produced by the Inland Empire's own, Bosco Mann. A soulful duet at its core, "Float" finds the group exploring new realms of pop excellence. The sophisticated arrangement and instrumentation gives the tune a cinematic feel that builds to a crescendo of psychedelic, swirling strings - immersing the listener in a wash of Morricone-tinged euphoria. A track that wouldn't be out of place in the next Double-O-Seven blockbuster. On the flip is "Cry for Me", a latin-tinged mover featuring Adriana Flores on lead vocal. Her pleading, soulful delivery gives the bouncy, hook-laden tune a seriousness that's simultaneously uplifting and heartbreaking. Float Altons_Float_Clip.wav Cry For Me Altons_Cry_For_Me_Clip.wav https://daptone.ffm.to/prs1016.GTQ Los Yesterdays On the heels of their smash hit "Nobody's Clown," Los Yesterdays’ return with "Who Made You You?" - whose dark feel coupled with singer Victor Benavides' bell-like timbre makes for a dichotomy of vibes that makes for a sinister groover that's sure to get heads bobbing at discerning Dj nights around the globe. Imagine Eddie Holman cutting a side for Fania and you're getting warm. On the other side of this future-classic you'll find quite possibly the best version of Richard Berry's classic "Louie Louie '' since the Kingsmen! Giving it the low and slow treatment, Los Yesterdays alters its DNA, creating a bonafide ballad banger poised to turn-on a whole new generation of folks to this R&B party fave. "Who Made You You?" LY_Who_Made_Clip.wav "Louie Louie '' LY_louie_louie_Clip.wav https://daptone.ffm.to/prs1015.GTQ and making his Penrose debut... Jonny Benavidez. In collaboration with our good pals at Timmion Records we are pleased to present two slamming sides from Mr. “Tell Me That You Love Me” himself, Jonny Benavidez. Hailing from San Diego and currently residing in NYC, Jonny is a vocal group aficionado of the highest order who has sung and studied with the best of ’em. This is evident as soon as his sweet vocals drop in “Somebody Cares” – a mid-tempo mover sure to make waves on the WC scene. On the flip is “Slow Down Girl” , a refreshingly uptempo tune that’s sure to get your heart rate up. Stay tuned for more to come in 2023. “Somebody Cares” JBVD_Somebody_Cares_Clip.wav https://daptone.ffm.to/prs1017.GTQ -

The latest release from Big Man Records, the first in a series of previously unissued Jimmy Radcliffe recordings. Sleeve notes and audio follow below... Jimmy Radcliffe - Big City Blues - Big Man Records 45 - Out Now BMR 1012 Sleeve Notes As Jimmy Radcliffe's fan #1 I'm super excited for the release of "Big City Blues" b/w "You Can't Lose Something You Never Had" on Big Man Records! My father's signature vocals showcase the brilliant talents of the songwriting team of Brass-Levine-Kooper, on perhaps lesser known songs than their celebrated hit "This Diamond Ring" but what these songs may lack in notoriety they more than make up for in their measure as quality soul music. Much like the lonely lost love footsteps that open the David-Bacharach opus "(There Goes) The Forgotten Man" the horns and timpani heartbeat of "Big City Blues" sounds out the pathos and desperate longing found down the alleyways and corridors of the discarded hotels that echoes throughout the songs of the big city. Once again harkening back to the sweetly inspired records that the David-Bacharach-Warwick team, Tommy Hunt or Chuck Jackson released in the early 60's, "You Can't Lose Something You Never Had" speaks right to the heart of a souring love with the horns hurling the tinkle of the piano down the waterfall of emotion in Jimmy's voice. Will this add to the long standing legacy of classic Jimmy Radcliffe discs like "Long After Tonight Is All Over" (Musicor), "My Ship Is Com in' In (Aurora) and "Breakaway"(United Artists)? Only you, the fans, can determine this ... but for my part, I say the soul scene is all the better for them and I for one look forward to hearing them out and about on a talc dusted floor. So without further ado, it is with great pleasure that we bring to you BIG CITY SOUL! Keeping The Faith, Chris Radcliffe Special thanks to Chris Radcliffe - Black Patch Productions for his blessing, permission and assistance in making this release possible. Massive thanks to David Cartlidge for his recommendation and bringing "Big City Blues" to the attention of the Soul Scene, after acquiring the studio acetate from Sean Chapman. Special thanks to Ian Gregory - Soul Time Soul Flyers for label, sleeve, collectors card and lyric sheet artwork. To my best mate Kevin Cox - SoulSpinner Northern & Rare Soul Sales for his involvement with Big Man Records. Finally to my soulmate Karen Bentham for her continued support and administration skills. Last but not least we thank the Legend ... Jimmy Radcliffe for whom the night will never be over! Mark Bicknell - Big Man Records Release Notes Jimmy Radcliffe - Big City Blues b/w You Can't Lose Something You Never Had - BMR 1012 new release. The first in a series of previously unissued Jimmy Radcliffe recordings from Big Man Records. Fully licenced from Black Patch Productions to Big Man Records taken from studio masters, big city soul of the highest order.
