The Look on Your face ain't a bad version either, are all the mean green pressings a bit 'fuzzy'

Got mint Going back to my roots pt1 & 2 Lamont Dozier on uk warners 45, is that a rarity? the us one commands a high bounty

Lucky enough to have a mobile disco crew who were "in the know" so we followed them most places in the late 60s early 70s Tunes that spring to mind are Rescue Me Higher and Higher 123 Unsatisfied (that on original London!) and loads of Motown Happy Days

on a modern tip Like Her- Gentlemen and Their Ladies..........then again all Disco!!!!!

Deffo played at the Mecca think it originally off the lp

I was the same age Ian the Wirral was a bit of a backwater but we were lucky enough to have a youth club (The 66) with a dj who slipped in the occasional Motwon 45 to keep us happy.The real bonus was having a mobile disco in the area that was run by some older guys that went to the Wheel after the Stock car racing at Bellvue. Our gang would follow them and pester them to play Why You Wanna Make Me Blue, Girls Alright With Me, Theres no Stopping us Now & I'll Always Love You. I'm sure the wedding guests and bar mitzahs appreciated them

None Taken Being brought up in the Merseyside area I dont think Berry's SOUND OF YOUNG AMERICA would have had such an impact without the CUNARD YANKS bringing records across the pond I'm sure that its documented that John Lennon used to play these early MOTOWN records to EPSTIEN moaning that the American productions were so much better than UK ones. Pop music was a commercial venture so only the MOTOWN American hits would gain release on these shores. The edgier Motown records( the ones we prefer!) came in through the back door.

The album Heavy Soul is available in various guises I had an original on the blue Prestige lable in totally destroyed condition so I replaced with an Original Jazz Classics reissue on the original Yellow and Black 50's Prestige lable, Confused? I have also seen copies on the green and yellow lable. Prestige recorded loads of artists from the 50,s to the 70,s and have always kept a good back catalouge. The album was recorded in 68 and features imho another great tune... You,ve been a bad girl Catalogue number is 7556

earl connely make up your mind seen a few variations of this which are original? whats a boot? how much?

Dereck Hatton?

Flemings Jeans made to order from a little shop in Walton Liverpool We originally got them in the style of the parralell trousers that were all the rage I think the maximum leg width they could do was 24" as that was the size of mine flapping around the tops of my DMs with 4" turn-ups Denim with white stitching(coloured thread became available as they got more poular) and two shallow v's on the back pockets A fashion must around 71,72

You see more battered copies of Belita Woods than clean. Lovelites My Consience is the same I like to think they were taken to Record Parties at peoples houses and played to death Not sourced from warehouse floors in Chicago BTW my own battered gem is Roger Hatchers Sweetest Girl plays through ok but full of pops and crackles Listen to it on cd and spin the disc on my turntable sad!!!!!

Dancing in Church thats sacred!!! Whats the story behind it?

Yes Steve I am its an age thing you know

Gloria Lynne For your Precious Love is another one These records are definitley 'Cuckoo in the nest' Top Sounds though

nor is it on what it is the only other leslie drayton album I know of

This dance is all they do, 'coz the hippies dig it the most, Na na baby get some psycedelic soul

JAMES DOCKERY-MY FAITH IN YOU IS ALL GONE-SOUL CRAFT - There you go sounds just as good to these old ears pesimism, optimism' sceptisism when have you heard so many ism's in one record?

The one in refosoul is the 70s? one

If memory serves me right the stock copies speeded up in the first few seconds thats why they were withdrawn?

Came out twice on Wand black and white and multi-coloured , would guess the black and whites the rarer:) John

Can anyone post the 70s version up for comparrison? I can't remember it:(
