Not recommended for people with dentures.

Yes, you should stick to 45s

Absolute quality. Thought I'd chuck in something at the other end of the spectrum. Recently refound this after quite a few years. The Soul Police will hate it. But its a dancers record.

Mikey, You are the last person I'd expect to be on the line to the Soul Police! As you are aware I'm a paid up punter who is deeply offended by said Soul Police. I have read the argument & listened to both sides of the argument. My considered opinion is that I couldn't give a shit what people do. Best regards Col.

He seems to have sorely tested your PEACE signature

Had to be a scooterist, couldn't have been a soul boy.

Alan Partridge?

When I click on the pics to open em up, they all appear to be 18" in diameter. I am sure this represents excellent value for money, but I think you are going to have trouble delivering them.

I take it you don't own any records by Don Ray?

Well you're writing style in much better than Pat Bradys. When he used to write for Echoes his column was as dull as dishwater!

Think you might need to look at the postage!

Any chance of a sound file.........

They are all worth buying. Not that expensive either, if you're prepared to take your time & scout around a bit. Col.

Ha ha! On a more serious note - just how many people do you owe drinks to?

I've had a second thought. This really should be my signature tune. Why - just listen to the lyrics! Col

Hi Ian The full question was a bit of an either/or "Is Northern Soul addictive....or maybe it it just appeals to people with 'obsessive compulsive diorders" I wasn't really expecting any sensible answers, just trying to liven it up with a few soul bearing confessions. But, I did like your reply. Col.

Big white As on green backgrounds.

Thought so. I haven't had a week-end off in 6 months!

Is Northern Soul addictive....or maybe it it just appeals to people with 'obsessive compulsive diorders' Couple of examples: Local lad now has something like 12 different cover versons of Bettye Swann "Make Me Yours" He's also collecting Bettye Swann's version as released in different counteries. Another mate paid about £250 in cash and swaps for a british northern soul record by a white artist. He'd been chasing it for a while and the dealer had a mint copy. He only buys mint. My comments were "Well I hope you got a good deal" His reply was "No I was putty in his hands" Any thoughts?

Nice vocals, backing track a little too bouncy for me.

Quality.

I have that. Send me a couple of grand & I'll share it with you.

Not the best pic but click on my home page. It'll give you an idea! Col.

What I'd like to hear is Bobby Reed - The Time Is Right For Love Nice & emotional!

Sounds like an out-take from Austin Powers.
