Did Blues and soul magazine ever do a feature on the casino’s 7th anniversary ? I know they did for all the others in the various anniversary issues between 74 and 79 but can’t find any mention of the 7th in 1980 Or was it deemed as all over and they didn’t bother ! Any ideas

When I first started going to allnighters - Crown Hotel Thornton Fife then Glenrothes YMCA - Colin Law spin from then - still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up with the opening bars !!!

Anybody got one of these for sale ?

Allan Harris Arthur Fenn has the acetate Lp and had a carver 45carver cut off it for Love is the answer There is also a 12” Columbia test press of the track out there Dj Nick The Record has it

Plenty of dealers out there who buy whole collections My singles collection went to Pat Brady 15 yrs ago and I was very happy with what I got - I choose him because he was the closest dealer to me at the time Still got my albums and 12” collection for a rainy day So you either get rid in one full swoop and take a hit on the mark up for dealers or sell individually if you have the time which means all your big ticket and expensive items will fly and you’ll be left trying to shift whats left with people haggling and eventually eBay ! Where you will have to pay the fees in the end ! Good luck

Never seen that one before ! Where’s it from ?

Great record and so underplayed - wannabe dj's take note !

It’s this one .....

Anybody got a spare one of these in the uk ?

Reissue is the bold print - namely the first scan

You know in life when you have made an impact on your 14 yr old daughters life when she shouts down from her bedroom - “ Hey dad am sure one of your favourite modern soul records was just played on this advert “ Nuff said ....

Not booted or reissued to my knowledge - if it’s this one - then I believe it’s legit - only seen one other red copy over ten years ago

After a copy of this Firstly aware of copy on discogs but condition poor Secondly been offered a copy overseas for £150 BUT import charges will bump this up Any UK dealers got one ? Thanks

Anybody !

You did well to find it ! I have been singing it in my head for the last hour but couldn't remember the artist only that I had the album ! Well done you

Really interesting thread - having progressed through the mod scene early 80’s in to the nighters scene - I love looking at the old pictures of the clubs - when I lived in London early 90’s I visited all the old haunts that were still standing - even went to a nighter at the Notre dame hall - fab reading - thanks for posting

Does John St John come with the picture sleeve ?

My mate picked an original up at Xmas in ex con for £100 I have seen the repress for £50 ! Never seen a demo ...... yet !

Dave Godin made reference to the “ northern “ style of dancing in his visit in Issue 50 of Blues and Soul to the Wheel

Does anybody have one of these ? Its a different fade out at 1.37 on a 33 speed ep rather than the 1.56 for the 45 rpm single

Found it !!!!!
