Some very good ones too.

Surprised Milton Wright hasn't gone yet.

Nice prices Flanster.

Another one with a really great sweet flip. I'm not crazy about the Really love you side but then again I always thought the northern version was boring as hell. Horses and that. Jordi

Bit funky as well Nev.

Tell me about it, that's all I do now.

You know you'll only try and buy one back in a year or so. Wish I could afford it Bri. Jordi

Ha Ha, reminds me of the guy off 'Wait till your father gets home' (was it Ralph?) Jordi

But Bob, if it was played at Wigan or any other ancient hallowed northern soul cathedral back in the 70's then it can't be funk. Frankie Crocker's 'Ton of Dynamite' would be northern and not funk, yet Willie and the Mighty Magnificents 'Funky 8 Corners pt2' would be funk shite! Jordi

My Prophesy has got no bass. A bit like the old Maurice Williams - Being without you purple boot. Jordi

Yep, we've already descended into the meat headed, "funk is shite" comments already. Where's my Judy Street boot, I need to hear some proper music.

Tony Aikens isn't a 12" it's an LP. The 45 is on Rota. Jordi

Chocolate Syrup - Off and running Spyder Turner - I can't make it any more (for that Paula Radcliffe moment) Dean Parish - Bricks, broken bottles etc (for the English football side) More to come....

or "Up and Over" - Jay Traynor for the pole vaulting. In fact Ian, you should have opened it up on here for suggestions before you compiled it. Jordi

I like your thinking Ian regarding offering alternatives to the inevitable corporate soundtrack, however I would bet the likes of 'Simply the Best', 'Search for the Hero inside of you' by Foghorn Leghorn (Heather Small), 'the only way is up' (Yazz version) etc etc, will be the TV and radio backdrop to the Games. Jordi

Thanks Seb. Yeah, I traded about a £100 worth for it a few years back. Some you win some you lose, I love the record though.

To be honest I thought it was a bit more than that Seb, nearer the hundred mark. No matter, a great piece of soul produced by Del Larks' sammy Campbell. Jordi

There are loads Bob, but there's also loads that do fit a good long track on one side, take the Soul Crusaders on LuTall for a start. I wonder why some studios decide to go with full tracks and others decide to split them up. Perhaps there was nothing to put on a flip?

Killer tune Tony. The original version is by the Friends of Distinction but it's not a patch on the Sophisticates version. Jordi

Why they couldn't put the two parts together on one side i'll never know. Part two is a killer side but it needs part one. Part one just fades out with no logic.

Ha Ha! I wish I still had them. i got them for $3 each. I kept one, gave my bro a copy to upgrade his copy and gave 2 copies to my mates. Thanks for the comment on the show. Jordi

Let's have a look at the ad then Steve. Jordi

I think you'll need to pay more than £150 to get a nice copy. Jordi

That looks like a great show from the playlist Nev. I know what you mean with over use of certain words, mine is usually "bollocks" or "shite" when I do the radio show, luckily that nice man Mr. Plumb manages to cut them out. Jordi

Not an easy tune to get hold of though. It seems to be in demand on the sweet / group / lowrider scene. Des parker sold me a copy some years ago at Albrighton and he told me that he found the record in the same projects area in Columbus as where the Chandlers came from. Jordi
