Off the top of my head that's correct - only 1004 and 1005 were Laurie distributed. Cheers Richard

Wait until you see my others

To kick this off - here's one of mine Cheers Richard Timothy Wilson - Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart (Blue Rock)

Pure ... dead ... brilliant

I'm off for a 'dump' or is it a 'jump' ? Actually both sound like too much information

Looks made up Paul

Yes, it's the Laurie sleeves for the later Precisions releases on Drew - have had a handful in those Laurie sleeves and they look nice, but most in plain sleeves whether early or later numbers. Otherwise, there was not a Sidra sleeve unfortunately. There was a lovely Sound company one which was connected to Sidra - but that wouldn't qualify for Drew records. Cheers Richard

Well I thought it was topical - but please yourselves!

Reduced to £45 Been going for more Cheers Richard

Thanks for all the comments guys So the record has a bit of serious history courtesy of our brothers down south - who have excellent taste But it has yet to catch on up north - boooooo! Just been bopping around to this one in my kitchen and I think it is seriously, seriously, seriously misunderstood - and like me it should get out more Cheers Richard

Maybe missed out a line with Velvet Satins mate? Volumes on Twirl Cheers Richard

OK folks Cover-ups were once a major force on out scene. But what is the state of play of cover-ups these days? How many genuine and credible cover-ups are actually being played today? And do they make sense? Is the rationale for covering-up different to years gone by? Does it really serve a purpose - or in reality are most records just one-offs or two-offs, or acetates anyway, so don't need a cover-up to protect the identity for the DJ at all? Richard

See there is the usual flurry of 100 Club Anniversary singles out today The price seems to be 60 quid all of a sudden - just wondered why Many previous anniversary singles can still be bought for less than this today, even some of the 'better' ones - I know they are all good Cheers Richard

When you say double-claps do you mean clapping with two hands?

Googled - just got rubbish. Crops up in lots of class Northern records. Anyone got any quality info on the origin, meaning, history, significance of "One monkey don't stop no show" please? Cheers Richard

That is a truly inspired answer sir!

This comes up a lot - and what are we going to do about it I wonder - where did the Teds go wrong

I don't even go to venues - haven't been for years, until recently - and I can see clearly there are far, far, far too many venues - every Tom, Dick and Harry is a DJ - too many places just playing to too small crowds - low quality and generic - playing bootlegs - not the authenticity and exclusivity that I find attractive about rare Northern soul. Tin hat now firmly in place Richard

Previously unissued before coming out on the Kool Kat (UK) LP and a 45 as Steve says. Also on various Goldmine CDs I think. If you want an original US vinyl version it is New Holidays on Westbound Cheers Richard

Nice Wish I was still in London every day - would have popped in Cheers Richard

Why is it called 99p soul? Some lovely tracks there Cheers Richard
