SHEFFSOUL

..had a copy from a soul pack back around 77..nice tune but not northern enough back then..moved it for a couple quid..there did seem to be quite a few around...

thanks..and for the recent info too...

ok..thanks..

i almost bought an emidisc from Russ at the time..but took a copy of Little archie on Dial instead...

at the moment i'm listening to your 'live' version..

plenty about..expect to pay 25-35 quid..

thats the one..( a little bit hurt..SS may have lifted that)..id settle for a carver if the quality is good enough..thanks Elvis

I'M AFTER A COPY, EITHER EMI DISC/ACETATE OR LP/CARVER OF....FOOTSEE..now the version i want is the first mixed by Simon Soussan and pressed onto emidisc type 45's then played at the casino early '74 as THE SOUND OF SOUL- it has a piano/keyboard intro..car horns and tapping metal pipe sound..may have been subsequently re pressed on other emi disc format or on a white label LP containing other northern soul tracks..not everyones cup of tea..but i'd like it for nostalgic reasons..must be good (or better) playable condition..now..who has one??

..is the inst version on the b side?..never heard it..can anyone post it?

oh..well maybe i did hear it earlier..as Queens hall was April '74 (i think) if AOTR was a year earlier..would that make it a Torch sound? or just after?

not available to UK...seems a bit strange...

bought a demo from a guy called Wayne Vaghetti at the casino for £5..it had 1/2'' crack running from the centre outwards..it always bothered me ..so i sold it on...

agreed..just wondered if i'd missed something..

is it a demo?

..what about the ARCHER stamp??????

ah..i didn't know that..thought both tracks were played at the same time..ish..now the LP track makes sense..

its FOOTSEE..i'm after..

well..not really knockin 'em..just said knocks spots off..which it does..i just get a bit fed up of some people who.. well..slag off,dumb down..records that were monsters at the time..just coz they have that white or pop attachment..i mean SS's original version of FOOTSEE first played at the casino was massive..and still sounds great to my ears..(IF ANYONE HAS A COPY THEY WANNA SELL ME?)..EMI disc/acetate/carvers all considered..so, thats my take..dont diss it just coz its an oldie from an era that was just incredible..

..sounds like a bright lad..

soul..schmoul..its records like this that made the northern scene..if it was on some daft rare label..it'd be ££££££££.....i STILL think its a great tune..knocks spots off some of this rare midtempo mediocre stuff..

..the boot circa '74..had it all the time..

well a genuine dated M48/50 is hard to come by..dont forget tthe US made that style (fishtail) into the 70's..i have WW2 TYPE M43 combat jkt (made postwar for Nato troops) virtually identical in same OD sateen cotton or later M50/51 which is a longer jkt..almost parka length,,.if your interested..both ex stock unissed...

great 45..bought one recently for £120..worth every penny..

did you find one?

just remembered..i had a boot of this..was playin it to dave Rais..and we thought she was singing Dandruff ..at the begining..funny the things you remember...
