upto £478 on a current auction bloody hell!! all time classic but what a price someones desperate to get that one ....

========== i know what you're saying lenny as i said ive had my run ins and used to be scared of ringing him (sounds silly doesnt it ?) but ive had some great records over the years from him and still do one thing that did happen i bought a record from him once and it got lost in the post and i went mad at him but six to eight weeks later it turned up and he posted it on again for me... as his website is available you can order from him without speaking to him now lol but give him another go.. you might be surprised..

========= richard is a changed man now guys hes mellowed over the years and is not the same guy as was in the 80's i fell out with him big style a few years back but made up and now talking again when u get talking to him he really is ok.. regards mark

======= hi there m8 u still got it ?? wanna sell it? i like crap records lol regards mark

===== must be pretty obscure ,,its not in manships uk book!!

====== if noone does in the meantime .. ill post this afternoon regards mark

========= hi tone thanks alot for the offer mate but im after the issue really all my uk pye are all blue and pink issues apart from these two thanks again tony ps did u know there was another version of this ,,must another uk group possibly an lp got a tape of minshull playing but he cant remember it!

willpower weak temptation strong on US bullet or the much rarer Silver Bullitt on UK Phillps what a great oldie this is imo... rarely heard these days but should be revived brilliant piano intro ,then youre off into a very underrated tune indeed and a great dancer go on have a listen you know you want to! have a great day folks regards mark

on a uk pye issue got a mint demo to swap but will buy at the right price thanks mark

on a blue pye issue got a mint demo to swap or will buy at the right price regards mark

my mate ralph played heartbeat the other week and its sounded fantastic... then i thought about all the other things she did obviously tainted love but also the brilliant 'finders keepers' and come go with me any body think she was underrated as a singer?? any one see her live in the 70's? was she anygood ? just wondering as you do.. regards mark

on MAM records hearing the pure soul band on another thread reminded me of this gem... is there a better instrumental than this i spun this at the first worcester all niter... i think its brilliant and still quite rare methinks any one like it / dislike it regards mark

bought this little beauty over 20 years ago from mr brady hardly played this apart putting on personal compilaitions over the years dug this out last and forgot how great this tune is... on the music city label this is a stormer of a 70's side...if u like your 70's stompers (like me) you'll love this!! ,, if u dont ah well.... theres one on john manships site if u wanna listen.. have a great day markus freemanus

======== for me its the fabulous determinations - has love been here before? just a brilliant 70's northern soul dancer ...

====== ok ill put one up, when ive downloaded that programme again.....

========= interesting points there dave just cant get me head round 'russ' being substandard though surely a guy who ran the allniter for 8 years couldnt be that bad could he im still a fan anyway cuz i think he played some brill stuff just different to RS ,, if it had all been the same i probably wouldnt have like it.. ...

Judith Durham (played by Richard ironically I seem to recall), ==== worse record that richard spun at wigan for me was johnathans experience - mixed up foolish girl on mgm covered up as the high boys - dreadful!!!

======== what a great thread....some great points for both sides of the fence....

========= anyone like her 'run for shelter' ??

====== there were sometimes only 50 in stafford but still had a corking nite cuz of the music and people....

==== alot of people thought Richard was god especially as he had the best newies towards the tail end of the wigan era. russ despite not having the same 'quality' discoveries arguably at this time none the less could 'pack' a dancefloor with his type of playlist and they had the bonus of being able to play things every week not like these days where the average dj will be lucky to get a gig two months in row whatever u think about wigan it certainly left a legacy for everyone to discuss good or bad
