OF CORSE I CAN? I WAS GOING TO POST A ARTICLE ON UPGRADING YOUR OLD VINAL, AS I WAS TRYING TO PIONT OUT LAS NIGHT, WITH THE invitations YOU CAN SEE THE DAMAGE A PEN CAN DO? I HAVE RESTOORED IT 2/3 OF THE WAY IT LOOKS QUITE DECENT AND OF COURSE I SHARPEND THE SCAN TO SHOW THE MARKS, IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO BE THE EMI,S STATESIDE AND MOTOWN, THERE ARE MANY WAY OF DOING REPAIRS ON VINAL AND LABEL, I MUST POINT OUT THAT SOMETIMES THE WRITING IS DONE BY A RADIO DJ OR A PRODUCER, AND YOU MAY JUST BE KNOCKING SOME VALUE OF THE DISC THIS OFTEN IS THE CASE WITH JAMACAN BLAKNS, MORE OFTE THAN NOT THE WRITING IS BY THE PRODUCER, COXONE DODD, LEE PERRY OFTEN SIGNED THE BLANKS SO THE RECORD WAS NOT STOLEN AND THE EXCLUSIVE GIVE TO ANOUTHER SOUND SYSTEM? ALSO MIDDLES KNOCKED OUT OF RECORDS IS A SHURE WAY OF IDENTIFYING THAT THE DEMO WAS ACTUALLY PLAYED A FEW TIMES, AND WHILE DEALERS SEARCH FOR MINT RECORDS AS THEY COME IS THE WAY THEY COME? I WILL LOOK AT THE SCAN AND SEND A FEW TIPS ON WHAT TO DO HOWEVER YOU WILL ALWAYS KNOW IT IS THERE EVEN IF NO ONE CAN SEE IT, YOU WILL ALWAYS KNOW DAVE KIL

THE INVATATINS WHEN I FIRST GOT IT WAS COVERD IN BIRO AND STICKERS AND JUST LOOKED SO BAD, SO I HAVE DONE SOME WORK ON IT, JUST ENOUGH TO MAKE ME HAPPY AND IT ONLY COST £2 SO NO REAL RISK?. DAVE KILWORTH

I HAVE STILL GOT MINE, PRICE ABOUT £10 IN NICE NICK, BLUES AND SOUL No50 EARL VAN DYKE COVER, IS THE MOST DESIRABLE OF THE LARGE B&S,s WITH IT,s FAMOUSE DAVE GODIN COLUM, AND THE 2 WORDS PRINTED AS A DESCIPTIVE REFERANCE TO 6ts SOUL THAT WAS MORE POPULAR NORTH OF LUTON, AS FUNK WAS THE SOUND OF THE CAPITAL ALONG WITH PHILLY. THE WORDS WERE AS WE ALL NEW "NORTHERN SOUL" DAVE KIL

YES INDEED HE WAS A CHARICTOR, AND WELL LIKED BY ALL, ANY WAY IT WAS BEFORE HE PASSED, I REMEMBER THE NIGHT VERY WELL! DID HE NOT SWALLOW A FEW GREEN & CLEARS, A REMEMBER A GOOD DANCER WHO USED TO MEET US NOW AGAIN FRON BENTILLY? MARLENE JONES, WE ALL HAD A BRILLIANT NIGHT AT LEEDS THE BIGGEST ALLNIGHTER EVER? WITH LIVE ACTS DAVE KIL

HI ALL, THIS MAY SOUND STUPID?..BUT THE FIRST TIME I HERED TAMALA LEWIS..I WAS POSITIVE IT WAS A COVER UP NAME? THE WORD TAMALA SOUNDED TO CLOSE TO TAMLA IT HAD TO BE A C/U HOW WRONG WAS I? DAVE KIL

HI SOMEWHERE I WROTE ABOUT MY ACCOUNT OF THE LAVINE IS SHIT A FEW MOTHS BACK IF YOU WANT TO DIG IT OUT? ALSO THE FIRST BADGES WERE ABOUT 1 1/2" WHITE CIRCLE, HAND WRITTEN "LAVINE IS SHIT" THEY HAD A SAFTY PIN ON THE BACK, I SAT IN THE RECORD BAR AND MADE THEM MYSELF, AS I SAY THIS IS MY PART IN AT THE START, IT WAS A TIME WHEN THE OLD STALWARTS OF THE MECCA AND ALL IT STOOD FOR, FELT THAT THE FAITH HAD NOT BEEN KEPT AND IANS BLATENT REFUSAL TO PLAY SOUNDS THAT HE ALONE OWNED, IN FAVOUR FOR RECORDS THAT ANYONE COULD BY FROM RECORD CORNER? DAVE KIL

The Bedford Coach was a good one to be on, and yes it was the SOUL BROTHERS coach, I remember Charlie Frost from Norwich while living in Letchworth organising a mini bus to Wigan, Taffy gave me a photo of the event, but it is so poor its not worth putting on, The thing I remember about that night I had a few wraps on me to sell? as soon as we parked up next to the Casino I can remember the Bedford coach across the road (see my photo) and Charlie got pulled by the Squad and frisked (charlie never took any Drugs) while I just walked by saying "constanoon aftable" The Bedford Coach, didn't Bootlace run the Stoke Coach as he fitted myself and ChrissG on it at Blackpool Mecca going to Wigan? I think Ady C comments about traveling to all nighters in the early-mid 7ts is apt as we really payed our dues going up "t"north DAVE KIL

Pete did you not notice the JM stands for John Manship? I guess you did, All I can say is back in the 7ts I use to love to go junking and looking through piles of records to find that new sound, this was a hard find?. I think you should remember now and again that back then with no price guides no internet, and all the knowlage we now posses, finding a Carl Douglas or a Fathers Angels Issue was like finding a needle in a haystack, hence the prices of records today, FIVE OF A PENNY was a huge record and it got the dancers danceing and that is what its all about aint it? it also sold very well as a reissue, so it must have something going dont you think? DAVE KIL

THATS WHAT I THOUGHT, THEY WERE A IMPOSSIBLE FIND IN THE 7ts, AND MY COPY WAS A DEMO, AND THEN IT WAS BOOTED AS A DEMO BUT GIVEN A COLOR CHANGE, OR IT MIGHT BE A REISSUE? I GOT A MINT ISSUE FOR $20 THE OTHER WEEK, IT STILL SOUNDS AS GOOD AS IT DID BACK IN THE DAY CHEERS FOR A RESPONCE THAT MAKES YOU AN OFFICIAL SOUL BRUVVER DAVE KIL

HI - TO MY KNOWLAGE? THIS IS THE ONLY SINGLE, WELL THEY MIGHT BE ANOUTHER SINGLE BUT IF THERE IS ITS NOT OF INTEREST TO COLLECTORS. THIS VERSION HAS GREAT MEMORIES FOR ME, AND TO BE HONEST I PREFER IT TO THE CLASSIC DANNA VALLERY, THE FIVE OF A PENNY ARE A BRITISH GROUP? ANY WAY HERES A IMAGE OF THE SINGLE IN JM TALK:- ITS A PRISTENE COPY OF THE FIRST ISSUE, MINT CONDITION, AND A RARE COLLECTORS OF UK SOUL VINAL, A MUST HAVE ITEM... DAVE KIL

THERE ARE STILL A HELL OF A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE PETE, WHO BELIEVE THESE THINGS ARE THE CROWN JEWLES. I HAVE MET PEOPLE IN WOLVERHAMPTON THAT I NEVER WOULD HAVE KNOWN THEY ATTENDED WIGAN CASINO MAINLEY WOMEN, WHO HAVE STILL GOT THERE LITTLE BOX OF PRESSINGS AND STILL LOVE THEM, BUT THEY THINK THEY ARE SITING ON A SMALL FORTUNE, I WOULD NEVER TELL THEM THEY ARE NOT, THERE MEMORIES OF THE CASINO OR BLACKPOOL ARE GOOD MEMORIES WHOAM I TO WRECK THEM?.. HOWEVER I HAVE EMAILED THE SELLER AS HE NOT A NICE CUTE SORT, HE IS A GREEDY PIG? DAVE KIL....PS IS MITCHELL BRAITHWAITE PROBE ISSUE MORE RARE THAN THE DEMO?

ORIGANAL HARDMAN AT THE WHEEL WAS FRANKIE BAGGOT FROM WILINHALL, I SUPOSE THERE WERE A FEW AT THE TORCH ,HOWEVER "SMOKEY"STEVEN STOKES IS A HARD MAN TO PUT DOWN, AND MICK SMITHS MATE A COCKNEY "BIG CLIVE"EVERETT, DEFANTLY HARD. AS FOR MYSELF I WOULD SHOOT YOU RATHER THAN GET MESSED UP DAVE KIL..A TRUE WEST HAMMER WITH THE SPIRIT OF 69

HI ALL...I BROUT THE VOWS ISSUE AT THE CASINO 75 ALONG WITH TOMMY GOOD ON CANADIAN TAMLA, FOR £1.50 EACH, BOTH RECORDS ARE CLASSICS, AS THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I HERED THE VOWS, I THOUGHT HELLO! THIS IS TO DARN SOULFUL!(PUN INTENTIAL) AT THAT TIME I NEVER APRECIATED ITS TRUE VALUE AND SOLD IT FOR £10 IN THE MID 8ts TO RICHARD DOMMAR, I HAVE SINCE GOT A TOMMY GOOD, BUT ON US GORDY, BUT THE VOWS IS NOT CHEAP AND IN TRUTH HARDLY EVER TURNS UP ON LISTS? SOUND OF THE 6ts IS A GOO PROGRAME AND NOT TO BE MISSED. AND I ALSO GOT A QUANTUM FEELING WHEN BRIAN PLAYED IT TODAY DAVE KIL

THE 30TH ANNAVERSARY SINGLE IS PERHAPS THE 3RD BEST TO COME OUT, CARLA THOMAS BEING THE BEST & MELBOR MOORE 2ND..KEELE SEEMS TAS O HAVE FINISHED AND ONLY ATTENDED 3 100 Club Allnighters if made welcome I will try and get down to a few this year? as my health issues have worsend recenantly it would be good to take someone with me who lives in WOLVES any body interested let me know?

HI MATE, JUST TO CLARIFY WHEN YOU SAY VINIGAR? WHAT YOU SHOULD BE SAYING "WHITE VINIGAR" AND NOT THE BROWN ONE THATS CALLED MALT VINIGAR" AS I ALWAYS SAY TO EVERY ONE, BEWARE OF REQUESTS,? YOU HAVE AGO WITH THE VINIGAR FIRST? WHITE VINAGAR DOES CLEAN GLASS THE BEST, YOU ASK ANY TOSH DAVE KIL

WARNING! all the UK - PYE Labels are so sensitive to PHD that if you mess with them, things only get worse. My advice to all record UK Label collectors is don,t mess with a record in any way, as you can f**k them up especially the PYE labels, and don't try and put centres into records that have been "Dinked" this adds no value to a record at all, and is the activity of someone who is still "blocked" from the night before. Clean the vinyl that's all, unless you have a very good knowledge of record restoration. DAVE KIL,

Tammi Lynn - "I,m gonna run away from you" UK DEMO, £2 from Mick Smith in the early 7ts, he got a mint one, his origanal copy is still in my collection NOC.SEW DAVE KIL

I have just spent 20 minutes on Pats Site, and I cant find anything that would indicate that once the auction has ended there is a still time to make a proxy bid?. in fact it makes a complete nonsense of biding in any auction, if someone is allowed to enter a bid unknown to the public? Best thing is to ask Pat and request that he publishes auction rules on his site in full, and better than that let him state the issue on Soul Source, I have Known Pat for many years and to my knowledge he will give you a straight answer to this situation DAVE KIL
