  1. wrong 45.. Oops !!
  2. Another mystery solved !! Thanks for sharing Chalky.. Great Stuff !! And the sort of stuff I really like receiving at Xmas
  3. I know instrumentals were the fashion at the time but, even so, how would you NOT play the vocal when it's 10000 times better !! I'm glad I did, I know that - the rest as they say, is history lol
  4. That is indeed correct Merve.. didn't we go to a local chippie for sustenance too ?? At that time Kyp wasthe ONLY LP collector I knew.. had things like the withdrawn Len Barry UK Brunswick LP, to which I still have his sales list with it on.. £20 !! Them were the days, eh..
  5. Nev Wherry came back from a trip to the US with 2 copies - one he kept and the other he sold to me on the proviso I would play the vocal as the instrumental was already in vogue, as Andy rightly states I used to hammer it at the Kings Lynn all-dayers held at the YMCA, and promoted by a truly wonderful but very strange guy.. Titch ?? I remember the brakes on his car were dodgy and he would stop by running into a wall !! I don't lie lol So far as I'm aware I was certainly at least one of the first, if not thee first, to spin the vocal..
  6. Without doubt !! Great tune too..
  7. And every item is listed at the same $995.95 ??? Bizarre !!
  8. Bloody 'Eck As Like !! That's a result - well, for my wife Sue at least.. I think it will be in sales very soon lol Thanks for your kind assistance @Bo Diddleyand @Winsford Soul 👍
  9. A beautiful UK Green And White DJ with intact centre 'Tommy Tate 'A Lovers Reward' Any idea as to current value please ?? TIA
  10. Defo not an original.. the seller is well respected and knows his stuff and highly improbable he would make such gravitated testicle
  11. Actually.. thinking about it it must have been early 78 'cos I was still living in New Mexico in 77
  12. MY Lester Tipton was purchased in either late 77 or early 78 along with matching labels Al Williams.. Soul Bowl possibly ?? Them were the days lol
  13. Too right Tricky.. and East Anglia collections never got the credit they deserved !! For example.. when only 3 copies know at the time of the Magnetics on Bonny.. All three resided within a 50 mile radius of Huntingdon !!! You have the likes of Glen Bellamy who has proved a constant source of tunes he first turned up and that the DJ's he sold them too throughout the decades went on to establish them as mainstream.. John Anderson of course.. And many others who's collections over the years would be the envy of any collector world wide.. Unsung heroes the lot of 'em
  14. Brilliant Stuff Chalkmeister Despite the quality just witnessing and hearing her singing YBGTL after decades of it being a staple of the NS scene sent chills up & down my spine, and the hairs stood up on the back on the neck !! now THAT's what it's all about.. Thanks for sharing Chalky..
  15. Nice One Kev !! Thanks for sharing.. a really good informative read and I learned a lot from it so many thanks for that and very much appreciated
  16. Looking forward Gilly and can't wait.. I'll take three copies for myself, Sue and my bro-in-law, please.. Mammoth effort, but glad you stuck with it !! Respect my friend..
  17. What a really fantastic and extremely informative read.. Thank You for that !!
  18. You are of course joking.. You ARE.. aren't you ????? 😮😧😠
  19. Well I truly and sincerely hope Anthony;s personal journey is not skewed by the line dancing display because that is DEFINITELY NOT anything to do with the Soul Scene I am passionate about Northern Soul Line Dancing ?????????????/ FFS
  20. Do people really believe that sort of televised display portrays the 'Real' Soul Scene !?! I think not.. and won't serve to give a true reflection of the Soul Scene in it's entirety - with 'non-soulie's' totally convinced that what they watched for the half hour duration of the programme is what Northern Soul is all about !! Tin hat on.. fire away.. But you won't change my view !! I feel the enthusiasm and sense of belonging young Anthony is experiencing, but I DO hope he also gets to experience the wider aspect of the scene and in particular some of the 'up front' promotions usually available
  21. My copy arrived yesterday, but it's only today I've had spare time to get it on the turntable and remind myself of it's brilliance.. And it is TRULY BRILLIANT !! and currently on permanent loop.. hope I don't wear it out lol The 45 serves another purpose too, during this weird period of lockdown we're all having to endure, and lives up to it's title 'Set Your Mind Free' in more ways than one.. I know I'm not alone with how the current situation can get inside your mind, and create struggles with one's own mentality - being prone to depression anyway I don't mind admitting I've lived a yo yo existence these past couple of months and literally wanted to bang my head against a wall !! On playing the newly arrived Roland Johnson 45 my spirits are immediately lifted, and my demons (at least for now) are once again consigned to depths where they belong So, thank you MD guys - not just for one of the best 45's to ever be placed on vinyl, but also for providing a catalyst to raise my spirits.. much needed and VERY much appreciated..👍
  22. Nice One Mike.. Enjoyable way to pass a few minutes during the lockdown..
  23. Have to agree with your comment Andy, I can't see a tune of such quality being left on the shelves Bet it will sound even better over a decent PA..
  24. These really are an interesting read each month Mike.. Thanks for that.. Can't believe I didn't see the Joseph Moore, and would have been a very happy bunny at the price sold.. So.. Those of you looking to unload a copy.. I'm just a PM away !! I can't see where this current situation is being detrimental to market prices of the rarer stuff.. as I for one thought it would have an impact on peoples willingness to part with such sums in these uncertain times, but perhaps I got that wrong !!
