  1. Hmmm, does it ? It's the same DJs and and the same Sol Ritchie singing live as the night you put on last Sunday. So how is it different ? Especially as I gather Max is going to put him on at Essington. I thought you had also DJ'ed at Essington and the Holly Bush in the past few months, so what are you playing different to those spots ? I'm not having a dig at you personally either, I have every respect for anyone that has the nerve to get up behind the decks, it just happens that you are the person who replied. Perhaps Pete S makes the point better than I'm trying to. It just seems that the existing Soul nights in the West Midlands are all very similar, and I wonder whether there are simply enough punters to support three new ones. As Craig says, there are now three soul nights on the same night, within a ten mile radius of each other. That just means the punters will be split three ways, and none of the nights will be particularly successful. Again, perhaps Des made the point more succinctly than me. Do any of the new nights add anything to the soul scene in this area ? If they don't, running three similar nights on the same Friday night will just mean that none of them will be financially viable, and none of them will be successful in terms of numbers and atmosphere.
  2. Yes the two nights are on different dates, but one clashes with Essington, and the other with the Connaught hotel, both within eight miles, and in fairness all four nights will have very similar music policies because all four nights have used the same DJs. In addition to these four nights there is also Goodyears, with again a very similar music policy, plus one in Tettenhall (If it's still running), plus at least one in Walsall, plus Brookfields, plus God knows how many other ones that I can't remember. Incidentaly regarding the station being a one off, Jellybean the promoter said "And it maybe a ~ one off event " the italics are mine, because the use of the word 'maybe' implies that it isn't a one off.
  3. well in the next couple of months in Dudley there's one night starting at the zoo, and one across the road and 200 yards away at the station hotel
  4. Anorak Records' label scans
  5. For me it's got to be 'Big City Playboy' by Jimmy Andrews. Trouble is, it's a seriously rare record, so I don't get to hear it out as often as I'd like
  6. Slightly different sibject, but....... There are some strange people out there. I had a run in with one of the Manhattans a couple of years ago. He sent an email saying that I had to remove the discography from my site because I was in breach of his copyright to the name The Manhattans. He even sent me the US copyright documents to prove his case. He threatened to sue me through his legal team Unfortunately for him, when I studied the documents he had the name copyrighted for performance purposes only thus it didn't apply to a written discography. I emailed him back and basically said bring it on, I will now only deal with your legal team, please give me their company name and address so that I can contact them (Thinking as soon as I contacted them they would have to reply, and charge him for the privelege ). He suddenly back tracked on the legal threats I advised him what a prick he was, removed the discography from the site and left a very pointed message on the page it was on. He'd wound me up though, so I then started sending him emails advising him that I intended to seek damages for the malicious threats of legal action which were totally unsustainable, and in the States I could probably have won the case I then got an email which apologised profusely, and blamed it all on a junior member of staff, with a very polite request to reinstate the discography....please He might be able to sing , but what a tosser

    Aren't the yellow ones original demos ? Just winding you up, no idea really

    And the 'Jumping At The Go Go' Cd that came out on Camden in 199
  9. The two versions are definitely different, although it might well be because the horns are mixed down lower on the Fryer release. Having said that, I prefer the Tribe release anyway.
  10. Thanks for all the help guys. Decided to buy the Bluesoul Belles Vol 2 CD, as I've already got Vols 1,3, and 4. Did a search on the net, found one guy asking for $138 for it So I searched a bit further and got a copy for £12 including postage
  11. Don't need it on a reissue thanks, got a Tribe demo. Just thought I had it on a CD somewhere, but after several hours searching couldn't find it
  12. Dave Rimmer replied to a post in a topic in Record Wants
    It was HERE went for $260
  13. https://www.recordsbymail.com/artistPage.ph...tistLast=DUPREE
  14. Try $135, but still got them in stock
  15. Would you believe I've got Volume 1 (Bettye Lavette/Carol Fran) and Volume 3 (Jean Plum/Veniece) but not volume 2 Aaargh Just found Volume 4 (Judy Clay/Marie Knight)
  16. It's not on Sister Funk Vol 1 or 2
  17. Barbara Lynn - I'm A Good Woman - Tribe .....it must have been released on something, but do you think I can find it !!
  18. well at least they are soul fans
  19. Midwest Soul DC Soul Here's two more
  20. Ten Thousand LPs Bloody hell, you'd struggle to lose that, it must have nearly filled a container !
  21. Dave Rimmer replied to a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    It is correct now, and contains a lot more information, supplied by Tim Whitsett, about this particular record. He should know, it was his band playing the music
  22. Or get your own US address via one of the websites you can use. Ages ago Trevski was after some trousers (I think)from the States who wouldn't post them to the UK, I put a link up to a site where you could set up a US address, and they would forward anything posted to it to your UK address for a small fee. can't remember the link now, but it's out there somwhere and perhaps Trevski used it.

    Errr, yes Tommy Yates Verve 10556 - Darling, Something's Gotta Give / If You're Looking For A Fool - 1967
  24. It is indeed Tony Hestor (I think)
  25. No I'm not. Mind you, the more I've looked at the picture myself I'm beginning to wonder if it is who it's supposed to be. Another clue: Wrote for The Dramatics
