For me this is a very apt post. I began collecting Northern stuff recently but am very dis-illusioned with the whole thing. I find myself preaching to friends "it must be original". But when I come across a track I love then realise I cannot buy it, it just seems wrong! The argument boots are rubish/cheatin is a bit ridiculous if you think about it, because the number of issues given to an original release was realistically left up to chance. Who can say they haven't come across a track and thought - "Jesus why did'nt this sell millions?" whilst others on bigger labels happened to take off, Diana Ross or whoever. I do enjoy opening a piece of history in a parcel everytime, but still there's that nagging question in the back of my head going - "this is just wrong". a kind of man made phenomena. Graham

Superb selections. Really enjoyed listenin to them there. Graham

Thanks Fellas.

Whats the story with accetate's then? This might have to be an option. Does someone do them in Uk? Graham.

Thanks fellas, I'll keep looking for a 7inch so.

Pig ugly you say? Well aslong as there's a pressing out there. Any ideas on price?

Thats my question. Did this get pressed at any stage? Thanks for info. Graham

I do like the Betty Lavette version. Amazing what good songwriters can come up with. All different versions. All very good.

Ya, ok Dave. how much?

Hi Id like to know if this can be got on record as I heard it was unreleased. Thanks, GRaham

Some real surprises there for me. Artie Fullilove and the honey and the bees are really good. Did these guys do other stuff of worth? excuse my ignorance.

oh, perfect. Ill take a look.

Just wondering if people might know of a few northern tracks with a bit of jing jingaling in em, as we're doin a night here around Christmas time. Any suggestions? Graham,

Thanks, I'll have a think about it. Graham

Would anyone have a copy of this, even a re-issue, as I cant see one on the net. Thanks Graham, Ireland

Thanks guys, great info. Id of sworn it was a 70s release. No doubt was played in the mecca ya? Cheers Graham, hey nobody else take that ebay item. ITS MINE!

Hi, Im trying to get a bit of information on the millionaires track - "never for me". I've looked around the net, but nothin. Would anyone know the date of release, where it was played etc. Thanks, Graham.

Hi Im looking for a re-release of the yum yums - gonna be a big thing. Have you got one to sell or know of one? Thanks, Graham
