back on topic.....can anyone help soul stormers? Not sure if it's been booted, but those on ebay a few weeks ago looked a bit odd. Originaly, they were on Soul Bowl's set sales section for several weeks and so can't be mega rarities i.e. John would have had a few dozen of them. However, you can still £300 for a copy, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's been booted recently.

And both have Andrew T farting away majesticaly on them! No surprise why it's so rare then! moved to 'look at your box'

Clip from the radio

Those were done in London in the mid eighties at a reggae dub cutting place that I can't remember the name of now (Jah something in Holloway?) they would do you the blank disk for a £10 and give you a couple of those labels to stick on. You can still get them done, I think.

.

And 7" white labels one too!

Yes forgot about those smaller solid-centre ones Also, they smell of wax crayons. Proper ones from the 60's have lost their odour over time and are not as strong ones being passed off as originals.

Audiodiscs were a brand of studio acetate. They are made of a metal disk coated in a wax-type substance and then laquered. You could go into a studio and make a recording and have a disk cut which you then take around the big record companies to try to get a deal and greater distrubution. They were also cut by record companies to see how they sound on the turntable as the original recording would only be on a reel-to-reel tape which you hardly lug home with you! EMI often did this and that why they're often called EMI disks. You can still get them cut now called 'dub plates' now days. However, you can tell the original 60's ones becasue the 'wax' is either black or very dark blue - hold it up to the light and look at the very edge. Newer ones are more of a purple colour. Audiodisc are often distiguisable from others becasue they used a 'thinner' label (see scan) and the texture of the label is course and matt. A word of warning, do not get any solvent or alcohol based cleaner near them or they'll melt! Soap and water only.

I am presuming this is a different Robert Walker. It sounds a bit like a frantic white college group. Is there anything else on the label? The b side is a cover of Spencer Davis 's Keep On Running, but there's no writer credited. Has it ever been played out?

Thanks for that, looks like I may have a couple of spare originals for sale then!

Peterborough and Bedford too. I've got a tape of his spot somewhere and I remember him playing Jon Ford's (UK) vesion of 'you got me where you want me' most times out.

Does anyone know if this is a boot? It's on vinyl, the printing is a bit feint and the number 7 is not multi-coloured, so I am assuming it is. However, it a very good quality recording, so I was wondering if it was legally reissued?

Played out by the likes of Poke, Robin Salter etc in the early eighties. Great track!

The originals don't have the waffle about copyright etc written around the edge of the label

It's gonna need it's feet Pottsy! It's on the back Shouldn't it be more bald than that? I'm gonna take pleasure in gunning that pulett down

'Yes, I'm in love' goes for around £250 - £300
