How bizarre, like you, aged 27 i went out on a 'randy' evening in Blackpool, with a 39 year old woman, Veronica "Randy" Crawford. True story!

I'm a bit lost here: it's not a 'carver'? it's a proper pressed up record, 1 of several? it's is or isn't licensed reissue through Jamie/Guyden Dist Co? it's totally 'moody' done for profit? it was sent anonymously to JM for auction? it's a sweet soul modern day leaked-out copy for mischief, remember the Four Vandals debacle?

All we can hope for John, as penitence for his faux pa , a stale (Melton Mowbray) pork pie catches him in the eye.

Perhaps it was supposed to be post a week today? The sound file was pristine, almost as if it was taken off a CD (tracks 15 & 13)

I won’t comment as obviously everyone’s tastes are different, but you canhave a look here - https://www.imdb.com/ X (2022) Death On The Nile (2022) Licorice Pizza (2021) House of Gucci (2021) Miracle in Motor City (2021) Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022) Lapwing (2021) Watch these instead: Old Henry (2021) western Even Mice Belong in Heaven (2021) animated Petite Maman (2021) French, but watch even if you don't like subtitle

Dog (2022) Two former Army Rangers are paired against their will on the road trip of a lifetime. Briggs (Channing Tatum) and Lulu (a Belgian Malinois) race down the Pacific Coast to get to a fellow soldier's funeral on time. Exactly what you’d expect, but better. Predictable, yes, but good fun 7/10 Moon Crash (2022) A global steel company is working with an aerospace partner to extract lunar material. When a drilling accident causes a giant piece of the moon to break off, it goes on a collision course with Earth. So bad it’s …….bad. They must have nearly spent $10 on production However, you might watch it all out of disbelief. 2/10 (not the Moon Fall film also released this year too) A Violent Man (2022) Steve Mackleson is a dangerous prisoner, incarcerated for double murder in a maximum security prison. We follow, as he navigates his struggle against redemption the system and his inner turmoil, when a young black gang member becomes his unlikely new cell mate and a daughter he has never met, finally requests to meet her estranged father. Face to face. I think it was made in 2020, but covid etc. I thought it was gonna be more ‘Foot-Soldier’ dross, but wasn't too bad. 6/10 The King’s Daughter King Louis XIV's quest for immortality leads him to capture and steal a mermaid's life force, a move that is further complicated by his illegitimate daughter's discovery of the creature. Made in 2014, but only just released. I couldn’t make head nor tail of it 4/10 Ali & Ava. ALI and AVA, both lonely for different reasons, meet and sparks fly. Over a lunar month a deep connection begins to grow, despite the legacy of AVA's past relationship, and ALI's emotional turmoil at the breakdown of his marriage. Loved it 9/10 Shane (2022) This will present an intimate portrayal of Warne, the retired Australian cricketer and larger-than-life character whose reputation on and off the green pitch saw his fame transcend cricket. More of a documentary, made early this year. Brash, arrogant, troubled genius etc, but when you’re that good. Non-cricket followers might find it interesting too. RIP Shane.

Great stuff, but then again have you ever seen any crap scenes with Steve Graham in them? 9/10

a lot more than i would have thought, even if only half are relevant https://secondhandsongs.com/performance/874655/versions#nav-entity

I sometimes listen the doo wop cafe, the degree of 'soulfulness' depend on the DJ http://www.doowopcafe.org/

I've substituted my ISP name with ABCDEF, if your email provider is a small one, you may be effected too: We are contacting you today due to an unforeseen issue that has arisen with sending emails to Gmail from the ABCDEF email domain. After thoroughly investigating the issue, we have come to the unfortunate realisation this is not something that we can assist with, as this is an issue with Google servers and their programming. Google have recently introduced a new layer in their spam security to ensure they can identify genuine email senders to some of their servers. This new layer requires domain owners, such as ABCDEF and Hotmail etc, to add a digital signature to the domains they own. (A domain is the part of an email address which comes after @ symbol. For example, @username.ABCDEF .co.uk or @hotmail.com). Google are only partly enforcing this new requirement on certain servers, which is why the issue is not occurring on a wider scale and not happening on every email sent to a Gmail domain. ABCDEF adheres to the standard email protocol known as RFC, which are guidelines implemented for the best practise of sending emails. The new layer Google have introduced is not part of this protocol and therefore not a requirement of the RFC. This issue is not unique to ABCDEF and is affecting other ISP's elsewhere. We apologise we cannot offer any other advise on this matter currently. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Is there a definitive list of recordings the Four Bars were the back-up band on? It's not obvious from label scans.

Has anyone actually had a successful claim for a lost package with PO/RM? if so, did they pay compensation in full or do you need 'over insure' to get the full value back?. And, if you're posting to Europe are their T&Cs re comp the same? I am contemplating posting to a French 'boogie' collector, but wonder if i should bother.

I found this a couple day but didn't bother posting. I think the CL 36 relates to something financial. I was wondering if Mr Rouse financed the Rouser label releases in exchange for having his name as the , producer etc on the label;. Sort of like 'executive' producers do with films sometimes, no production input, just the financial backing.

can't credit source as it from a RSS file of a defunct site " While fans of the late 1960s Western series The Guns of Will Sonnett loved Walter Brennan’s bold catchphrase “No brag, just fact,” only 18 year-old trumpet player Tiny Barge (pictured second from right) of the El Corols Band and Show thought it would make a great chorus for a song. Formed by several junior high school students in 1958, the El Corols Band and Show played covers of popular songs in clubs and private events around Washington DC and performed with The Temptations at The Howard Theatre, Dionne Warwick at the Shore Hotel, and The Supremes at Carr’s Beach of the Chitlin’ Circuit. After rehearsing for weeks in a barbershop on H St. NE in 1968 the El Corols Band and Show walked in Aadvark Studios in Silver Spring, MD and cut two songs—the Guns of Will Sonnett inspired “Chick Chick” and “You Gotta Be An Angel” co-written by Tiny Barge and future Motown songsmith Fangette Willett. The band released the 45 on Tiny Records and Rouser Records and radio stations WOOK and WOL helped popularize “Chick Chick” in the DC area. Over 20 years members of the El Corols Band and Show included Johnny Freeman on trombone (left); Robert Freeman on trumpet; Robert Battle on drums; Milton Grant on bass; Charles Robinson and Dewy Holloway on baritone saxophone; Carter Jefferson, Ron Holloway and Linwood Newbold on saxophone; Eddie Hicks and Gregory “Guitar Greg” Gaskins on guitar; Frank Delany on congas, Tiny Barge, Donald Tillery, and “Sir” Joe Quarterman on trumpet; Karissa Freeman on keyboards, Little Wimpy Johnson, Sydney “El Sid” Peoples, and Jimi “Senor” Smoot on vocals; and the El Coroletts—“Little” Yvonne Glover (second from left), Brenda Brown (right), Renada Dowd, and Arlene Williams. Other band members were Bobby Allen, Edward Freeman, and Earl Brown. Though the El Corols Band and Show eventually disbanded in the 1970s, they inspired many musicians in Washington, DC and served as a springboard for several members including Elvis’ band mate Guitar Greg, Carter Jefferson, Donald Tillery of The Soul Searchers, Tiny Barge, and “Sir” Joe Quarterman.

After a couple of googles, more confusion. Jay Wiggins 1963, Richard Harris 1968. Chick Chick issued 3 times?

The Rouser release was in 1971
