60's NORTHERN, GOOD 'N PROPER
Stompers, bangers and teeth gnashers; mid tempo finger snappers and gritty slower tracks to pull pained soulful grimaces at. But nae pish! All ex condition Diane Cunningham - Certain Kind Of Lover - Fontana Ā£100 itās Chicago-a-go-go here, with Eugene Record, Cam Cameron and Keny Wells all rolling their sleeves up to forge this mid tempo finger snapper that has a wee touch of āLove Uprisingā to these ears. Diane ā who she? ā has a perfect voice for this song, too Felice Taylor - I Can Feel Your Love - Kent *demo* Ā£55 raucous, brassy, gritty, pounding banger thatās quite the opposite of Diane Cunningham. Original 6Tās style! ***SOLD*** The Penetrations - Sweet Sweet Baby / Champagne Shing A Ling - Highland Ā£400 selling my collection has been a relatively pain-free experience so far, but every now and again Iāll pull something out that makes me shudder to think itās for the off. This is one. From a young age I came to realise Mr Leonard Jewell Smith Esq was a musical genius and anything he had the vaguest connection with should be bought. If Len Jewell walked in on someoneās recording session and farted, that record would be worth buying. Two fine sides of splendid Northern Soul here, and a genuine, seldom seen rarity. ***SOLD*** Richard Anthony and The Blue Notes - No Good / The Boston Monkey - Swan Ā£80 both sides are 100mph, rowdy, horn-laden baw kickers. Full on! *** SOLD*** Rick Sheppard - Iām Gonna Change - Bang *demo* Ā£85 top drawer connoisseurās sound. Iām holding Dean Anderson responsible for this gem, from Ye Olde Stafford days Shirley Karol - My Babyās Gone Away - Dakar *demo* Ā£75 damn fine Chicago crossover action, with some serious wailinā anā a hollerin on the flip The Danderliers - All The Way / Walk On With Your Nose Up - Midas Ā£75 right, WTFās going on here? 3rd time Iāve listed this and keep dropping the price, with neāer so much as a tickle. None on Discogs, Popsike notes one from December at $96. One of the harder Midas releases, I had some mileage out of at Allanton it in my DJāing days. Come on, buy it⦠The Stereos - I Canāt Stop These Tears - Cadet *demo* tidy wee track this, sounds like itās from the late 60ās and quite fitting for todayās vibe The Visitors - Iām In Danger - Bashie Ā£50 my man Len Jewell again, and an in-vogue group. The rarer first release before Dakar, great Northern dancer, typical Len Jewell tackle⦠The Visitors - Never The Less - Tangerine * demo* Ā£125 and speaking of typical Len Jewell tackle, their other one on Tangerine, and rarer than the in-demand āWhat About Meā. Just a bloody good group who made bloody good records for people thousands of miles away across the Atlantic! Towanda Barnes - If Iām Guilty - Groovy Ā£80 another relisting and again, miles cheaper than Discogs. ****************************************** Terms (please do read this if you're gonna buy something) : - Making an offer to buy - please PM me but also note on the sales thread there's a PM on the way. - Prices - while I'm sure my prices are reasonable, I might be open to offers on some titles, so ask.

60's NORTHERN - GOOD 'N PROPER
Performers, Johnny Scott, Notations and Herman Hitson all sold. Apologies to anyone I haven't replied to personally. Minutes after I posted the sales up I had to shoot away on some unexpected family business and unsuccessfully tried to keep up to speed on my phone. Almost sold a record twice (sorry again, Mr You-Know-Who ). Lesson learned...

60's NORTHERN - GOOD 'N PROPER
60ās Northern, good ān proper. Nae Pish! The Whispers - You Canāt Fight Whatās Right / You Got A Man On Your Hands - Dore Ā£200 classy double sider, āFightā is in ex condition, āHandsā is vg++ labels are pressed slightly off centre but just the labels, the centre is dead on. NAP. Jimmy Burns - Powerful Love / Giver Her To Me - Tip Top Ā£130 both ex condition: āPowerfulā is a gritty, fist pumping dancer, āGiveā a nice Sam Cooke-ish (Cooke-y?) number. As with The Whispers, labels are wonky but centre hole is true. NAP. Sam & Kitty - Your Money My Love - Four Brothers ex Ā£50 understandably in the shadow of āIāve Got Something Goodā but this really is cracking, tuff-assed dancer in itās own right. Jackey Beavers - Sling Shot - Checker ex Ā£45 big, bouncy banger by Brother Beavers (thatās enough bās ā Ed) ***SOLD*** Herman Hitson - Sheās A Bad Girl / Show Some Sign - Minit demo vg++ Ā£135 what a voice, olā Herman couldnāt half roar 'n holler with the with the best of them! Gritty dancer and wailing ballad, condition dictates price here ā plays much better than the marks and blemishes suggest The Blues Busters - Love Is The Answer - Minit demo Ex now hereās a lovely uptempo dancer; great harmonies, soaring strings and good vibes lyrics. Quality tackle. ***SOLD*** The Performers - I Canāt Stop You - Mirwood demo Ā£55 Ex tight, punchy, brassy dancer you donāt see too often, more so on demo Johnson, Hawkins, Tatum & Durr - Your Love Keeps Drawing Me Closer / You Canāt Blame Me - Capsoul ex Ā£50 another fine double sider: āDrawingā is a tidy mid tempo finger snapper, āBlameā is gorgeous sweet soul ***SOLD*** Johnny Scott - Somebody Help! Anybody - Porta ex Ā£60 canāt make head nor tail of this one, an oddly-compelling Northern-y, R&B-y, Mod-y groover thatās got ā Stafford tape swappersā written all over it (in a manner of speaking). Fabulous Traits - Lonely Man / Love Is Strange - Tele-Phonic ex Ā£40 seen this getting mentioned in dispatches lately. It donāt do shit for me but WTF do I know? (note to self: donāt sound negative when trying to sell something...) ***SOLD*** The Notations - You Should Know - Sue ex Ā£400 saving the best ātil last: in my book, the very best from the fantastically consistent Notations, a group really in vogue at the moment. This is a joyous, bouncing, brass-driven Northern dancer that never had the credit it deserved.

Anyone remember this...?
Dean Anderson and Guy Hennigan were talking about this on Dean's radio show last year. Joe Clements was an Irish fella who lived in Macclesfield and did a bit of singing. He liked soul, so became 'Soul' Joe Clements. How he came to get a record deal is anybody's guess. Apparently, some record hound managed to sniff out where SJ's house was, knocked on the door, spoke to The Man Himself and posed the million dollar question "so...er...Joe, sorry, Soul Joe: got any spares"? Dunno what the outcome was...

First all nighter record that you remember most
And it would have been the late Neil McKillop playing it, I'm sure. Thanks for sharing! :-)

Message to sellers on here
I started selling up last year, wee lists of 10 or so records every few weeks on here and Facebook, and while I was (and continue to be) amazed at how civilised buying and selling has become these days, I eventually took to inserting a little list of T&C's at the end of every sales post I put up. I used to feel a bit daft about it at first, just being a geezer selling off his collection rather than being a 'dealer' as such, but it really does make sense not to leave anything to chance, not to assume a buyer will let me know that he won't have the dosh for a week, or that the sale is dependent on him making sales, or that he can only pay by cheque, etc...

60's NORTHERN, GOOD 'N PROPER!
60ās Northern, Good ān Proper! Duke & Chi Towns - Let Me be Your Baby Sitter - Spinning Top ex Ā£35 nice, Windy City bouncer. Canāt recall this being played out back in ye day⦠*** SOLD *** The Four Exceptions - You Got The Power / A Sad Goodbye - Parkway demo Ā£75 brilliant, long forgotten double sider: āPowerā is yer full on, rip roaring, 100 mph old skool Northern stomper and all the better for it, āGoodbyeā is an sweet, mid-uptempo finger snapper. The vinyl is in excellent condition, the labels much less so. Now, when Ah were a lad, a nice clean label was all very nice but Iād be buggered if a messy label would put me off buying any record I really wanted, but not everyone thinks that way, so the price reflects the nick of the labelā¦***SOLD *** Joe Hinton - Got You On My Mind - Backbeat ex Ā£50 really nice, upbeat dancer. A Stafford tape-swappers staple⦠***SOLD*** Johnny Gilliam - Baby Take Me Back - Modern demo ex Ā£80 and talking of Stafford. Timeless mid tempo magic⦠***SOLD*** ***SOLD*** No No Starr - Swing Your Love My Way - Midas ex Ā£40 storming Northern/R&B honker, Guy Henniganās old something-or-other c/uā¦***SOLD*** The Ebonys - Donāt Knock Me - Soul Clock vg++ Ā£40 I tried collecting Soul Clock back in the day, hoping to find more Times A Wastin-type sounds, but ended up with lots of things like this: kinda Northern, kinda funky, kinda groovy; in other words, useless for the 1980ās but in vogue nowadays. Itās also very good, by the way! The Herbs - Never, Never (Will I Fall In Love) - Smoke ex Ā£75 killer harmonies, melodies, horns: the archetypal Northern Soul sound I feel in love with. Really want this record to have a loving home. Tyrone The Wonder Boy - Please Consider Me / You Make Me Suffer - Four Brothers ex Ā£60 I donāt what age the Boy Wonder was when he sang these two grumbling Chicago chuggers but ye Gods, he was no stranger to the ladies or the night life. Two mean, badass teeth gnashers youād be compelled to try dance to after being up all weekend, with your legs going one way and whatās left if your brain going the other. I also have his other two 4-Brothers releases⦠Willie Parker - Donāt Hurt The One You Love - M Pac ex Ā£70 Chicago couldnāt half turn out sturdy mid tempo fist pumpers! First heard this from a John Manship 60ās Newies tape, no one seemed to pick up on it at the time, now enjoying a new lease of life after Willieās recent visit to these shores. ************************************************************************************************************************************ Terms (please do read this if you're gonna buy something) : Making an offer to buy - please PM me but also note on the sales thread there's a PM on the way.
