Look on here, in the post: 'Records I've Always Wanted To Hear, DOG RARE - ANYONE HELP WITH MP3's?' /index.php?showtopic=31775

Phil Is it true that Wigan Casino is closing down? Suppose we'll have to 'move on'?

Shane You’ve confused me here. Do you mean it the other way around? i.e. got an album release but no singles. Then again, that’s ‘prog-rock’ isn’t it? Not sure who you mean by ‘soul stars’ v ‘greats’ can you clarify. I would have thought to get offered a album release you would need to have had at least 2 decent nation US hits (1 for each side) , plus recorded 8 other track for a typical ‘5 a side’ album release?

The perception that a rare record (& therefore must haveto be a very expensive record as well) = a good record.

Groovy!

£188 /index.p...31373&st=50 (But he has already got the answer of another forum this afternoon)

Was Junior McCants a child pillion passenger when the motor cycle crashed killed him, or was he old enough to ride it legally? I'm sure in the Kent CD notes it tell you how old he was when he cut his two King outings

Gwen Owens ? I'm sure she said at Prestatyn she was 16 when she cut JSYWAN

Recently I paid way over the odds for a copy of Pro-Fascination from another respected collector because it irritated me when I heard it on CD but didn't own it on vinyl. Most people would think I was mad on that deal too. Just out of interest, what percentage over 'the odds' were you prepared to pay? 5% 50% 200%? Also, now that you've attained the prised disk, what have you done with it? Played it non stop, played it a couple of times and put it on the shelf, or thought what a silly begger I am and asked Manship to auction it for you?

Pete As a special treat for a Saturday night, put up Jery Naylor - City Lights ..... should at least frighten the kids into going to bed!!!

How did I know you were gonna ask that? The better of the two don't you think?

I love that style of music myself, soul or not. It'd be nice to have a definitive CD of that sort of sound, any out there?

The Royal Five - Nobody Else I think it has recently be re-released with 'Don't Stop' on the other side

Yes, I've got the 7" that you have t0o, & the 12", but it's a different mix to both of them. Also, it is a proper 45, I've had it my hands for a moment and that was years ago before 'vinyl carvers'!

It's gone down the wires now, hope it turns up and plays OK. When you play it will you, after deticating to your mate, introduce in the age-old Barnfather style "Alfie Davison - Twelver!"

No sorry thats the omnipresent common or garden 7" mix .This was a Charm City 7" too, played to me just as I was leaving to catch a train so couln't have a good examination of it. Thnaks anyway.

I doubt it as his technical skills don't go much beyond working a tape player! Anyway he played it to a mate in his presence. Maybe I shouldn't have called him a tight ****!

The other mix of the Nurons didn't get released. Someone played it down the phone to me and when I asked him to copy for me, he somehow had just lost the cassette!

I'll try to get it to you, but it's over 7mb, so it might not get through. When do you need it by?

I like to hear properly (i.e. not down the phone) the other mixes of Nurons - All My Life & Curtis - How Can I Tell her (no, not the 12" mix)

All the lasses seem to love Ruby Andrew - Just Loving You

The kid singing that old Little Carl Carlton C/U sounds that young it must have been recorded 'in utero'!

Mark There was a CD swop a while ago, and your CD contained what I would call 'ambrosia' , every track a peach. What the 'scene' needs is people like you who know a great tune and don't get bogged down in the bolotics!
