Keith. It says email but not PM mate. Could that be the reason why no reply maybe? Tough on WDJ this one and lovely flip too. Cheers Richsrd

Brilliant - thanks Robb - clearly I have not been on the ball enough Cheers Richard

Hi everyone I.P.G records. Always wondered about that one. Never really looked into it. Where is it from please? I know the Velvelettes are on the label and people say it is Detroit but I'm not too sure about that. Would be interested to find out. Cheers Richard

On the SoundCloud copyright thing I just got this message today removing a track I had posted up there months ago. Can anyone explain how that might have happened please?

What's the track listing on the Detroit one anyone please? Have a few of these from when they came out, but missed the Detroit one Cheers Richard

The Jamo Thomas version was one of the first records I ever heard (apart from the usual Motown, Atlantic etc) that got me hooked onto 'Northern'. I never tire of hearing it today and can still play it more than once in a row Cheers Richard

Thanks Bob - all makes sense now. I just noticed the title on the issue is I Spy (For The FBI) but on the demo it is (I Spy) For The FBI Cheers Richard

Fabulous version of 'I Spy For The FBI' on Smash. Maybe Detroit recorded, maybe New York recorded - but sure sounds like perfect Detroit to me - and top credits too. But who were the G-Men???? Cheers Richard

Thanks Ricky. Still looking for info folks please. Apart from the obvious, the connection between the two releases is Devotion Music Cheers Richard

Manship's auction price was £233 if I recall correctly mate.

Also wondered the same Robb - would be good to establish this Cheers Richard

Thanks for the info guys - much appreciated Cheers Richard

Can anyone please tell me anything about the Tokays on Brute - group history, line-up etc. Also - what were the various pseudonyms Tony Clarke used to write under - damned if I can remember? Cheers Richard

'Things are looking up' is the better side I reckon - and the most 'northern'. Cheers Richard

The incidence of "now sold" seems to be on the up again, so hopefully this will help a bit. More annoying - if like me you are looking for records to buy - is "PM'd you". Come on guys, if you PM'd the seller they will know - as they will have received a PM !! The "PM'd you" post seems totally pointless. Maybe someone who does this could just please explain what it is meant to achieve? I still think sales threads should be automatically locked (or locked by the mods). This bumping, whether intentional or accidental, just wastes time for people looking for sales, especially if using mobile. Cheers Richard

Wheelsville or Rojac isn't it - which one? Cheers Richard

Hi everyone Hope someone can help out. Looking for a top condition (near mint) copy of the Volumes - I Just Can't Help Myself (American Arts #18) on a black demo. If you can help please just PM me. Cheers Richard

Condition? Cheers Richard

Should be in ebay sales and website links too huh?

Manship's auctioned one recently. Was not that much. Cheers Richard

Just fabulous Andy - looking forward to the next installment Cheers Richard

Show off

It's helpful to buyers to put the title in the main heading of the post Think that is in SS guidelines too Cheers Richard

Fascinating stuff Mick - will have to give it a listen - very strange Cheers Richard

Just keep trying Joan - I got on OK after a false start Cheers Richard
