25 yrs on the scene 10 yrs married Tried everything , soul hours , nights , allnighters and weekenders, She hates it all , Thank f xxk

Ex / Nm I know Craig Moerer has a promo one for $50.00 , but thought I'd try local first , Thanks ,

Was at a very good, but wet !! bbq ,today and my mate played the usual modern soul cd's to get the crowd going , One of which was the Sunday Soul Selection by Soul Brother , a cracking album , BUT the Grace Jones track came on and I was gobsmacked , not usually a first for me ! I have never heard this track played at a soul night , after 25 yrs , ever !!!!,one of my ex girlfriends had the album when it first came out , that's why I remembered it , and nearly choked on my burger when it played !!! So please put me out of my misery , does this 6.44 mins of torture get played ? And apologies to those who like it , got a spare copy of " View To A Kill " for sale !

I'd luv a copy of any of them, oops !!!!! Sorry mod !

Anybody know the going rate for this , I see there's a sealed copy for $125.00 on evilbay but thats more than double what I think it should be , Cheers,

Any ideas would be grateful , mate mentioned it was on his first album , " David Sea " for Magic City in 86 ? , but can't find track listing or pic of album , Thanks,

Sorted

Anybody got an old / spare copy for sale ? Thanks,

Any ideas of current value for this ? Thanks,

I did'nt come onto the scene until the last year of Stafford , where the usual custom was if you went for a s++t in the bogs you'd have to cover it up as a p ++ s in case somebody asked you !!! I have met a lot of folks over the years and the conversation has been " Oh you're into northern soul , did you go to wigan " NO " Oh I did , sister , brother , cousin , cat , dog , budgie , blah , blah , blah ............ Even Mike Walker states half the bloody country turned up with the tv cameras !!! This is not a slate on the Casino and the path it paved . Lets face facts , this scene hides away from the tv cameras one minute and revels in a national radio / press / tv show the next , We are the victims of our own success and the days of an underground scene are well past it , lets remember the past with great memories and encourage the youth of today to carry it on , I have been to a lot of soul nights where it's all late 30's upwards , so what happens next ? So what if you can pick up Frank Wilson's Greatest Hit at Morrisons for £3.99 along with the shower gel in the 2 4 1 section !!! Enjoy it people and when you're bones are creaking and can't go on , I intend to open a residential care home on the east yorks coast for us all , called ........................................................................................ " Shoes " !!!

Just sorting through one of my album boxes to make a bit of room and came across the album , Only vaguely remembered it for " Where There Is Love " BUT, There are another 3 - 4 great dancers also on the album , " Don't Take Your Love " " A Mother For My Children " " Will You Be Mine " And the title track " Bingo " Just buy it !

My old mate Andy Dennison , ( The Musselburgh Maestro ! ) gave me a copy of Colin Law's tape of his current sounds / playlist from the mid 80's , Colin was rocking the dancefloor of Glenrothes YMCA at the time amongst other places , I still play this tape now even after nearly 25 yrs , Lost Soul , The Gilettes , Sam Dees , The Allen Sisters , Jackie Follet , they're all on it, it is a belter of a collection of sounds from Stafford onwards !

Just on this subject , I have advertised in the wants section on here over the last six months for a few albums , a few of which have been three figure items , I cannot praise enough the honesty of some of the ss members re grading / condition in their replies , some of which ,when I've received the item to of been better grading than they've explained ! Probably two reasons for this , namely nobody wants whinging customers messaging them non stop , but more importantly nobody wants someone creating a thread and slagging them off ! Personally these blips are few and far between and this is a great site to do business on ,
