Strangely enough the version included on "Northern Soul Connoisseurs" has this fault, I thought this was only on the cd, shows the level of care Phillips gave to their remastering in the 70's!

100% kosher

Covered as Terrible Tom-Help,Truth & Portraits on True Love-there, I've reminded you

Yeah, but you didn't have to play it Dave!

Buying or selling?

Didn't you get that off me?

I'm sure Phil will be embarrassed about this,one of the nicest and funniest guys I've met, chin up mate and get better soon. As Chuddy said emergency services were second to none, even with myself and Jimmy keeping an eye on them!

The Intentions on Uptight are from Harrisburgh PA, if I remember correctly.

Got to agree with all of the above, a really nice fella, looking through Ian's play box was enough to take your breath away and that was the stuff he didn't play! It was a big shame Ian coudn't make the Kent do, was looking forward to that more than anything. Keep well Ian Tony LP

Indeed you will mate

Wasn't that Colin Law?

Adam Faith sings "I Don't Like to Lose"

Did you moonstomp to it?

Oops I slipped up there, well spotted Tony, but, it's not a ska record, that much is true.

No, but if Geno Washington had got it, it could've been the follow up to "Michael" and a hit, and the all the Rik Gunnel artists... cue Tony Coleby....still no ska

It's a record recorded by a white guy for Monument records in 1966, it's risque title got Decca/London UK worried enough to pull it from release. It is not a ska record.

What ska records were played at the Torch, and Va-Va's and the Mecca, I d love to know?

Sorry, but thats total bollox, the modern variation as you call it, is "disco" to many of us and has nothing to do with NS but we have to endure thread after thread about it i.e. a whole thread devoted to Travares. If modern is acceptable then so should SKA/Reggae be, as they are far more to do with NS soul music as is RnB and probably beach music and doo wop, than moderrrrrrrrrn will ever be. I certainly don't advocate banning "modern" I just choose not to read the threads about it Those aspects of this site were here from the start, they were'nt hijacked!

Type away we'd love to hear your opinion

Thank you Pete, Some sanity, in place of some threats.

My post says "Soul Source", not ska source thats it, if you've got any personal problem with me you can pm me

You what? I'm not imposing my views, just saying I didn't want it imposed on me, get back in your box.

With all respect I disagree this site is "Soul Source" and since the start has been been a site dedicated to Northern Soul and its modern variation, I won't comment on where you grew up or where you went, but, for me the allnighter scene meant I didn't have to listen to reggae or funk, I don't have to be diplomatic about this, otherwise the last 29 years would've been wasted.

It's "Soul Source", not "SKA Source" can we not fill up valuable space to posts which should best be served on a site for ska lovers, don't mean to offend anyone but, it's not an interest of mine, or if it's open season am I allowed to make endless posts of stuff I like?
