    Best of the lot is Gixen - totally free and has never, ever let me down

     

    Totally agree Pete. Although last night I had a snipe ready to go on a want record and when i woke up this morning the snipe hadn't gone off. It turned out that Ebay in their wisdom had decided someone was trying to hack my account so put a block on my account which meant that Gixen couldn't snipe. I would have won the bloody thing as well!! I wasn't happy as it hardly ever comes up for sale. Where's the red angry smiley?

    I think you've got to be careful that you don't scare off the people who sell stuff only occasionally. For me, the most interesting sales are from people who don't do it very often and it could become boring as a buyer if only the sellers who regularly sell, and have paid their £25 subs, become the only source of vinyl on here. I occasinally sell stuff to fund other purchases, but I wouldn't bother if I had to pay £25 a quarter as it wouldn't be worth my while.

    Thanks...Jordi

    Hi Fu, sorry to hear about this mate.

    Do you know EXACTLY where your records were stolen? Was it in a bar or music venue?... or maybe from your hotel or at a train station? A more exact location might give people a few ideas of where they should concentrate any efforts to find your records.

    Good luck.

    Exactly. If it was an opportunity theft by some chav/scrote it's quite possible they were thrown over a fence before they got to the next 'Subway' sandwich shop.

    Please, stop it - he doesn't like jazz, that's his choice, I think the world would also be a better place if jazz hadn't been invented but so what!  And the artists you quote are jazz influenced rather than jazz musicians.

     

    Just think it's a dumb comment that sounds like something a  school kid would say. You can't write off a whole genre of music as shite, it's ridiculous.

     

    As for jazz influenced artistes as opposed to actual jazz artistes, I'm not sure of the relevance. What ends up on the record is what we're talking about. Does it mean that he hates all the many northern soul records with jazz overtones? Towanda Barnes, Ramsey Lewis etc. Anyway. I'm not having an argument about it, but I do agree that Nina Simone should not have been played on the northern scene although I did have it on the 10" UK EP at the time.

    'Where Are We Going' was released on the Very Best Of  CD 2001. Previously (Unreleased).

     

    It's a different mix of "where are we going" though. It's got Marvin whistling on it which isn't on the other version. It's a fantastic 12", "Woman of the world" is sublime and should be a massive tune. The Mizel brothers and Marvin are a partnership made in heaven for me.

    I thought about getting some done to be honest. The main reason relates to the higher audio level you can get with the wider grooves of a 45 compared to a narrow grooved lp track. The wider the grooves, the louder the record which is why 12" singles sound so good. Now the reason I nearly got some done was because some of the equipment that you have to use when DJing is very poor and doesn't have the necessary b*llocks in the amp power, so when you turn up your narrow grooved lp track to give it the necessary volume boost to match the level of the previous 45 you've played, you get an almighty howl or hum of feedback coming from the speakers. So you then have to start dipping the bass down and messing around to try and get the thing to stop feeding back. If you've got a good sound system with a good powerful amp this won't happen as there's always some juice in the amp to cope with turning it up for your lp tracks.

    stopped collecting Northern about 18mnths ago, and decided to start thinning my collection, not just the northern and 7 inches but every genre. Spending the money on bicycles now, LOL. I still cant stop buying though, at least the tunes i'm purchasing ( 8ts and  9ts house and garage) are afforable right now, for the average guy NS is frustratingly expensive. I can buy  a stack of 12's for £30, where would that get me with 6ts northern?

     

    A lot more shelf space.
