    Yes, a few releases come with the liners on pdf but it's not the same though, is it.

    Sadly CDs are on their way out. I still buy quite a few. However, downloading is cheaper and quicker. I nearly bought the new Lalah Hathaway CD today but the shipping costs were as much as the CD, so I'll wait. As soon as I buy a CD, I import it onto iTunes and listen to it on my ipod. I still prefer to have a physical CD but gone are the days when I let it cost me an arm and a leg.
  3. Of course lots of places don’t stick to 100% OVO for the following reasons: · Oldies dos are more popular · Some of the most popular classic oldies are rare and expensive · Not all the DJs can obtain the records that people will dance to at those events · Although there are many lesser known, cheaper originals, the oldies crowd won’t dance to them The punters don’t care as long as they hear their favourite sounds. Don’t worry about it. If you don’t agree with this approach, then don’t go and I’m sure the most vociferous amongst you don’t. Get on with enjoying your own type of events.
  4. Feb 1997 - First Togetherness allnighter at the Kings Hall, Stoke opens, attracting more than 1500 people. The line-up includes the top DJs in the country at that time in both northern and modern soul rooms. It was the start of a new type of brand of northern soul spawning weekenders and CD compilations. It attracted a huge number of returnees to the scene and also led to the continuation of popular oldies events. The modern room was great while it lasted! January 2002 – The first allnighter at the Rocket, London opens to huge controversy. A bitter war of words ensued between the promoters of other London nights and the lead DJ of this event. After less than two years, it crashed and burnt.

    What I want to know is what is "NORTHERN SOUL MODERN SOUL CROSSOVER SOUL MOTOWN SOUL MUSIC"? I feel as if I've missed out!
  6. I've bought the later version of Leon Hayward's "Consider The Source" and was very disappointed. I should've known there's no such thing as a real bargain.
  7. There's loads but I'm not sure I can recommend all of them: Sharon Jones Nicole Wiilis The Bamboos Kylie Audlist The dreaded Duffy

    Agreed. Thanks very much.
  9. The scene is disappearing up its own arse. It's too fractured, too much back criticism between folk, not enough patience for other's tastes or views, the punters are getting older, the music is getting ancient and with improving technology it's easier than ever to hear the music in some shape or form without having to leave your house. A diminishing number are interested in collecting records.It ceased to be trendy, exciting or underground quite a long time ago. The differentiation should be the experience and enjoyment factor on a night out. People can't be bothered to travel far, local soul nights can be ok but generally not very good. It's incredible that it's lasted this long but there's no point worrying about it. It'll carry on with a small number ageing diehards continuing to have a good time.
  10. The later Prelude label was very good too, if you're that way inclined. Gerald Mallory, D-Train, Bobby Thurston all had great releases there.
  11. Just having done a quick search on my iTunes library, I hadn't realised that Val & Nick wrote: Ain't That Good Enough - John Edwards / Garland Green You Better Be Good - Peggy Woods Mr Creator - The Apollas Love Woke Me Up - Loleata Holloway
  12. RIP Nick. Along with Valarie, one the best songwriters ever. So many classics over the years recorded by them and other artists from their Motown era, disco classics and 80s soul. PS. RIP to Jerry Lieber too.
  13. No, it came out on the Oakland Zone CD in 2003. Good track and a good CD too
  14. Not much is the short answer. Just the CDs you'd typically see in a big HMV (or used to!). Quite a bit of good soul though.
  15. Was this recorded before Maxine Nightingale's "Right Back Where We Started From"? A did Maxine basically plagiarise it?
  16. Stone cold classics Chuck Cockerham - Have I Got The Right Alex Brown - I'm Not Responsible Celeste Hardy - You're Gone Margie Joseph - One More Chance Eddie Billups - Ask My Heart
  17. I'd like to buy this on CD (or even download), Will it be available on those formats?
  18. Excellent flip side on this too. (The better side imo)
  19. Excellent. I look forward to it (especially her take on Jolene ) and Fame material from other artists
  20. Hi Lorraine It's an honour to have you here among us. "I Can't Hold On" is still one of my favourite records of all time. You must have had a blast recording that. "Mend The Torn Pieces Of My Heart" is a fantastic peice of music too. Dave
  21. Expansion have released two new CDs recently in their Soul Togetherness series. The Spirit of Philadelphia Vol 3 is fantastic and maintains the high standard of the previous 2. It contains awesome tracks for the first time on CD such as Sharon Paige "New To You" and the in demand Sharon McMahon "Get Out Of My Life". The CD gets a bit down tempo towards the end but the quality is still strong. The other is the Skip Scarborough Songbook, celebrating the late, great songwriters work. He wrote some classic songs and included on this comp are lesser known versions of some his well known numbers such as Dionne Warwick's "Can't Hide Love" and LTDs "Love Ballad" . Also, there are classics by The Emotions, Phyllis Hyman and Patti Labelle which a lot of people will be familar with. Some of the tracks don't quite hit the spot and I'd say it's more interesting than essential. Having said that, Earth, Wind & Fire's "Earth, Wind & Fire" is awesome!

  23. I very much doubt it. Aside from a small number of hardcore devotees, oldies fans and internet enthusiasts - it's popularity is very low. Perhaps it's better that way.
