Competition - Northern Soul Alldayer Lp
Not really an Alldayer per se, but the afternoon session of the 2019 Soulshakers Bamberg Weekender was great fun. Reason: good music and good beer :-)

Comp recommendations - classy '60s female midtempo?
I have enjoyed and still enjoy "Atlantic Sisters of Soul". https://www.discogs.com/Various-Atlantic-Sisters-Of-Soul/master/869339 But you would need to listen to the tracks before. The record is more in the deep soul vein.

New Diggin’ Deep 45 (Jerry Miller)
And I really would LOVE to know, how many bought the record because they truly love the music and how many as an "investment", hoping that the price will rise. A few of the previous issues are already sold on DISCOGS.

What was your last allnighter attended ?..
Soul Shakers Bamberg. Not sure though if this is considered an Allnighter, as you have two Allnighters, so a Weekender 😉

Recurring discussions and sleeves
Hello, Whenever a thread for one of the classic recurring topics is started - such as Overpriced evilBay items, OVO vs. reissues vs. bootlegs, Ian Levine, etc. - there seem to be two camps: The first one is just happy to rehash the topic (maybe someone has a new opinion or a new perspective), and the other camp is truly annoyed. This time I have a topic which has been discussed before. So, I you are in the second camp, and you are annoyed, just switch to another thread 😀😀😀 I am interested in sleeves, or the best way to preserve our precious vinyl Florian Keller, long time German Funk and Soul DJ, posted a long article on his blog, claiming that paper sleeves will cause paper scuffs and “...while slowly decaying, sever wood fibre dust is piling up in the record grooves while slowly decaying, sever wood fibre dust is piling up in the record grooves” https://floriankeller.net/category/dj-stuff/ Chapter: Perfect 45 inner sleeves! He continues to discusses some different options but finally recommends Sleeve City’s Heavy Duty lined sleeves. The inner lining of the discussed sleeve is thick and sturdy, made of hi-density polyethylene (HDPE) ( https://tinyurl.com/y4amovvf) I have to admit that I am just a bit scared of plastic inner sleeves. I heard a lot of different options and two threads in the past ( https://tinyurl.com/y4cpft9b , https://tinyurl.com/y592pqmg) reflect that. To me, Paper Sleeves (maybe combines with cardboard sleeves) still seem like the safes option. Used since ages and no risk of any unwanted chemical reaction. A lot of you have a lot of disc which a worth a lot of money. What’s your take? Still paper? Or have you switched to lined paper sleeves because of the paper fibres? Take care YouYou

News: Bob Abrahamian - Raw and Unedited
It would definitely be fun if life continued just in another dimension. I wonder though, if we would then still discuss and talk about OVO vs bootlegs 😀

Disco Sleeves (Covers)
Hello, I have got a question, which is not really a 100% related to Northern Soul – but as I know how broad the knowledge of the forum is, it I try my luck. A lot of companies used special covers (sleeves) for their disco 12", e.g. Epic with their Red Lips Cover. Do you know a website, or maybe even an existing thread, which gives an overview of these covers? Take care Jurgen
