Blimey, I never knew that Ray. I'll have to look out for that. I'm sure my Ordinary Guy has Crystal Blue Persuasion on the other side.

It's an lp only track, off the brilliant "Singing some Soul" lp. Same track as Sunny and the Sunliners and also I think the flip of Seven Souls - I still love you" on OkeH. Joe's is my favourite version. Lp's a tough one, probably £100 - 150.

My copy's on Tiny, which was the first local label and it's got a real nice crossover dancer on t'flip, forget what it's called now without digging it out. Jordi

I've been waiting for someone to say this. i totally agree with you Tim. Firstly to call a 4x4 drum beat a 'soul' beat is a laugh in itself, it's a 'northern' beat not a soul beat. Soul has many rhythms and beats and if you can't dance to anything else other than a 4x4 metronome beat then I would say you're probably a sh*t dancer. Let's face it, there's plenty of sh*t dancers on the northern scene who really think they are good when all they do is the same slidey moves to every track and not even in time to the metronome beat. Disco and house music have the same 'idiot proof' beat which is why some of it gets played in the across the board rooms, so that the rhythmically challenged can still dance to it. Me personally, I love records with trickier beats and rhythms, I like music that makes me move all over. Jordi

Weren't they originally Chubby and the Turnpikes? Jordi

PM'd you Phil.

Thanks for that link, just spent a fantastic 2 hours of my life listening to the mix, spine tingling moments a plenty. Beautiful stuff. Jordi

It's 1964 actually.

I think you'd be lucky to get one now for less than a couple of hundred. Jordi

What's the Motown drum roll that Levine uses on every one of his records?

Joey Irving - There's a Man. Only on Belgian Baltik I think. Jordi

Yes, I thought that was way too cheap. Someone got a steal, both sides are killers. Jordi

Andy Dyson had some copies a few years ago. I was offered one, but I thought it needed an instrumental break in it as it was full on vocal all the way, and a bit repetitive, so I declined. (Doh!!). Jordi

Lenny, if you don't want to pay the grand plus for an original, it has been reissued which should cost you less than a pint and a pack of fags. Jordi

I've got a 7" that doesn't skip. Don't know what it's worth though, I got it for peanuts. Gorgeous record, always reminds me of Parkers. Jordi

yeah, somebody needs to buy that Voicemasters. 2 brilliant sides. Jordi

Great music there lads, I would have enjoyed every second of that event. Jordi

One of the best 'B' lines of all time in my humblest and probably my fav. James Brown track, especially the part 2 which isnt on this clip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcZfwTO1n9c Jordi

I've got a Godfather Strivers. How much do you want to pay, as I don't know the value. Jordi

Ace record, yet to have it's day. Jordi

Killer track. There's also another brilliant track on it as well. It's wierd, the whole LP is typical 80' drum programmed, synth 80's clatter, but there are 2 tracks where proper musicians and instruments are used. It goes without saying that these are the 2 killers on the LP. Sorry, not selling mine though. Jordi
