So Ian's first record is a new discovery, he obviously doesn't know about Fred Marks And Toll Darkness using the same backing track on their Mel Omega releases? Too many years in the wilderness with Take That. Dave

Don't worry Bob, Reggie's got a lot less hair on show on the cover of his latest gospel cd. Dave

Great interview with Charles, Steve Dave

Hi Phil I'm not comparing the quality of either 45against each other just saying that "Let's Take A Look" is about due for a reactivation., the trouble is the Four Dynamics is a current biggy and Emory is a forgotten sound. Also some records never hit the bigtime first time round or even the second infact some have to make more comebacks than George Bast to hit the bigtime. There's none so fickle as northern folk.

Na! this is another one he'll regret selling. It's about time this ol' Guy Hennigan Stafford spin re-emerged from under the shade of "The Things A Lady Ain't Supposed To Do" Now then what did Guy have it covered up as Where's that Chalky when you need him? Dave

OMG that didn't last long that Threlfall chappy can even out manoeuvre Fred "The Shread" Goodwin when it comes to slippery deals

What no Trent Sisters !!

Terry & Marsha Its A Possibility / He Champ Mint - £30.00 + £2.10 postage Dave Welding

I seem to remember Pat Brady spinning this in ye olde staffordy days

The Sonatas Vendor Come Back (To Me) flip to Going On Down The Road Hotline The Topics If Love Comes Knockin' flip to Hey Girl (Where Are You Going) Chadwick Sandy Shelton Baby Your Mine flip to Your Gonna Make Me Love You Okeh Dave

A couple more RCA's Percy Wiggins The Work Of A Woman flip of It Didn't Take Much Rose Valintine When The Heartaches End flip of I've Got To Know Right Now Dave

Why all the negativity "Get Down With It " is a great record why not play it back to back with "Dance What You Wanna" quiff and shake-dancers ago-go Dave

Go to our website: www.souljunctionrecords.co.uk to hear soundclips of both sides Dave

Mick Smith bought a instrumental version of "If You Can't Be True" on a virtue acetate off John Anderson at one of the Manchester record fairs it was the backing track to Marva Lee's cover version on Atco. It was o.k but would have been better if it had of got the wah,wah horns in it. He covered it up as the Jimmy Bishop Trio. I suggested he covered it as the "Duo-Dynamics" to which he replied how am I gonna say that after a few Shandy's down the 100 club so the Jimmy Bishop Trio it became. Dave

Maybe either Gamble or Fisher ?

Here's a couple more Steve Both were on Virtue acetates, one being Cindy Gibson which had the issued version of "Step By Step" on one side and a slilghtly different version of the same song on the flip instead of "Whisper you Love Me Boy" It was in very poor condition and I eventually sold it. So it's out there somewhere. The other one is a one sided acetate of Kenny Gamble singing "Help Wanted" which is a longer version than the Volcanoes issued version and this one I kept. Dave

Perhaps it's a case of selling too Fast rather than Stepping!!!

Mel Williams is more down to demand than being rare, most copies are and will probably remain in collections. There are alot harder releases on Buddah for instance Janice Joyce and Triboro Exchange Issue for example Dave

Hi Mark Thanks for your kind words concerning our forthcoming release. For further details and to hear soundclips of the two tracks mentioned above please checkout our website: www.souljunctionrecords.co.uk All the wholesale orders were dispatched yesterday, so checkout all the usual stockists to order your copy or if you so wish you can order direct from us at: sales@souljunctionrecords.co.uk Happy New Year Dave & John Soul Junction

Tricky! thank god Eddie Parkers "Love You BabY" ain't a recent discovery. Clarence Reid isn't a top 500 tune so dancers need to tread carefully with this one So if every DJ who owns a copy plays the balls off it till this time next year enough people might be brainwash enough to strutt their stuff to it. If rock guitars are a problem does this signal the end for Babe Ruth and Judy Freeman ? Dave P.S Both Clarence Reid's on Wand although different tempo's are great records !!!!
