  1. I am sorry Rob if i have offended you or any one else on here with the E J Post, that was not my intention, I don't post on here very often but do like to come on site and see what is going on and on occasion share bits and bobs, but i will not be posting on here again and restrict myself to browsing, Would like to take this opertunity to the many friends i have on here that know or don't know me a verry "Happy New Year", All the best to you all, Rick
  2. Having a lazy lie in sat morning with cup of tea (as you do) listening to Danny Baker and in the studio being interviewed is Elton John, (no i am not a fan) but i did buy the Thom Bell Sessions 12" many years back,he talked in depth about his involvement with football which was to be expected and harked back to his music days but it was his pre fame start in music that was interesting, running around with his band in an old van earning £15 a nite backing the likes of Major Lance, Patty La'bell, and Long John Bawldry Any one else catch this? would liked him to have touched on the Thom bell sessions and explain how they came about. strange how the most unlikliest people became connected to our music as never thought of E J as a Soul/ RnB fan but groups like the Beatles/Stone etc were. anyone on here go to any of these early shows that E J was banging away on the piano? i wonder who else was in his band at that time? interesting stuff..............................................................
  3. Ditto that Mike, big in my front room, unusual picture cover and a 10" too which makes it an overall unusual and collectable piece, was very limited on vinyl on its release, think it is deleted now as those that had it have not been able to re-stock, beautiful record all round, Rick

    Remember Kat (from Scunthorpe) dancing on the circular dance floor slipping and grabing hold of Chris Jones (Scunthorpe) and ending up in a heap on the dance floor in fits of laughter, great times were had there back in the day

    good point, i stand corrected young sir, even old dogs learn new tricks

    Some times the small label copies were used with major labels stuck over the top until they were officialy pressed, that is why some records have the old numer AND new number on the run out, sometimes the old number would be scratched out but not always, not saying it happened in this case but this was quite common and would explain the rarity of some local label releases, always worth a look at the run out on your records me thinks

    Sure i DJ'D a few times there in the 70's, was this the club that had the raised circular dance floor area ?

    Great soul record i remember giving spins over the years at the "Canal Tavern" Thorne (Dearlove days) Modern/crossover nights, "Arties Mill" Modern nights Brigg" and at "Yarmuff" in the collectors sessions. Another "Black Knight" purchase, £80 (back in the 90's) not an easy record to find these days but pure quality, Mines on the red TAM-BOO label 6719 writen by SILVERS. Was not aware of other label colour. Good luck finding a copy as should be in all good collections
  9. I'M NOT TELLIN' YOU (BABY) BY ISAC HUNT (?

    seem to remember as having both copies of this at one time they are 2 different versioms too, someone may be able to put both versions up on as sound file/refo to compare ? Rick
  11. Cheeky monkey, it's brill, might not play it out much these days (nobody asks me to DJ anymore) But gets lots of spins in my front room as for the dust, must have a word with my cleaner, oh crap that's me,..... All the best Rick
  12. I have a minter of this in my collection, anyone know the going rate for it ? Not sure if i would sell it mind you, but you never know, i may be tempted

    As mentioned a Jaggers/Richards written song, Stones version always was the best, and is on the Decca album called "Aftermath", another track from the album was used for the intro to 60's mod/pop show "Ready Steady Go" called "I just can't wait" While showing kids riding the " Big Dipper" fair ride, oh happy days
  14. I played this ealy 70's (Probably Cleethorpes Pier) purchaced from John Anderson and i'm sure my copy of brand new day is Nooney Ricket, and latter copies turned up as Norman Rickett, I also have aother track by him as Norman Rickett, It was rumoured the Norman Ricket copies (Brand New Day) were re-issues or boots untill the other titel turned up, anyone have a clue on this one, just curious, thanks in advance. Rick

    Music is a cross between "Paint it black" The Rolling Stones" and Larry Williams and Johnny Watson "Too Late" not bad, quite like it in a quaint sort of way
  16. What a good example, a lot of the 12" SINGLES of G F came with a built in JUMP so stuck with the 7" Classic Quality sound, love it
  17. Other than the question of speed 45 or 33 for a 12" singles were aimed at the disco market especialy the longer tracks so as they sounded better (wider groves etc) why is it that SOME 12" singles only use 1/2 of the playing surface for one track, what's that all about, defeats the object so to speak. On a bit of trivia the first 12" single i recolect although it technicaly wasn't a 12" single was a track on the Bob Dylan album Blonde on Blonde the track "Sad eyed Lady of the Lowland" was the whole of one side of a disc on the double disc album, Was this a first or do you know something i don't? Rik
  18. just tried connecting to this site AVAST virus protector on my pc stoped me from doing so saying it contained a virus, any one else get it ? ps on the mentioned track, by the time he is handing out ears in the video i was bored and offered him mine but didn't want them, didn't rate it when it came out, don't rate it now, next...........

    Richard and the Young Lyons - Open up your door (i wanna love you some more)

    I defo played this at Cleethorpes
  21. Thanks for that Nick, i thought i was crackin' up, but got it in my mind the version i played was female but i may be wrong, The brain cells aren't what they used to be i've that many records wouldn't know where to start, oh well, some one out there must know
  22. advertised as preveously un-issued why do i know this track, i used to play the damm thing but memory aint what it used to be, Obviously the version i used to play was by someone else but who, maybe someone like Blake can help ?
  23. Don't do the junk shops/charity shops usualy because there's nowt to be had or Tom Paddisons always been there just before you Was looking for some Hi Fi equipment and spotted a box of 12" singles and had a gander (as you do) Picked up 2 twelves for 50p each (ripped off again) Let me take you dancing - Bryan Adams (voc/inst) A&M US Promo (an old Arthur Fenn spin Tom tells me) Darlin' - Bob Sinclair (Test Pressing) Which i bought as a new release on the Champs Elysees Sampler but very nice to pick up on a test press.
  24. Had a listen when first released a couple of weeks back and wasn't impressed, can't think why anyone would want to record a cover of the song so soon after daffy ducks version, just another new release sounding old (yawn) and why anyone would want to play it out ? Modern Soul for the Northern folk, I'll get me coat
  25. Modern is Modern, Brand New, Recent, Not Old, you wouldn't buy a Ford Cortina and say it's a modern car, what makes music any different, or i've got a Modern house me, it was built in the 70's aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh this bloody subject drags on and on and on "IT'S ALL SOUL MUSIC YOU CAN DANCE TO ANY YEAR ANY STYLE" if it moves the heart, and the soul, and the feet, That is what matters, that is what does it for me, when i was booked at "Northern soul venues" (Hate that term grrrr,) i played and broke the likes of Down to the Bone, Frankie Knuckles etc, etc,etc, at various venues as New Releases, it was just good music you could dance to, and was called a tosser by a lot of people for "Selling Out" And "Spoiling Their Scene", i had those terms and worse spit at me full in the face at a recent Winter Gardens event shortly befor it was closed down and demolished, Funny how these records are played in Northern Soul Rooms up and down the country and readily accepted as such....but to put the cat amoungst the pigeons, are these records NOW Modern or Northern? BE AN INOVATER, NOT A You know it makes sense or am i Where's Me Zimmer Frame
