    Your standards must be high, this record is so the WHO, listen to that loon drumming its sh-ere class, the WHO could play tunes like UNDER MY THUMB all day long with basic instruments, off course its not soul? but as a beat group I amvery glad that I saw them live and the Kinks class bands that hit my soul?

  4. Did you no that so do I? and also I used to be a Roadie for Mike Patto R>I>P DAVE KIL
  5. Ila Van "cant stop" and the Fugitives "Human Jungle" and I think? but not sure Footsie the original Simon S mix were all 1st played at the CAT This does not mean that I understand the earlyer comment as Ian discovered so so many records he is ruled out as also PEP and Mick Smith and indeed any of the inderviduals who went to the USA to find stuff. and yes I no PEP never went to the States? but he is a good bloke! a Robber but a Good Bloke? DAVE KIL
  6. I had a few top sounds in 74 including Sandra Philips "world without sunshine" on a gold issue Broadway I use to get them from Mr Anderson (the Scotchman) at Soul Bowl, still have a few lists, not being pedantic but when you describe a record as his or he played 1st is not my view of the scene? please explain this rule for me please? maybe its because I am a Londoner DAVE KIL
  7. How about my settings Mike? especially problems of making attachments? and when I make a posting or a reply the format is like an old typewriter how do I reset my PC to the way it used to work on SOUL SOURCE? DAVE KIL
  8. Yes Dave Godin, was an academic, his knowledge was always delivered astutely as a quite sage, maybe his ventures into the modernistic world of the 6ts added to his manner? "Wisdom" that's the word that describes DG "and then some". DAVE KIL
  9. Dave Godin good bloke, however the way you are talking about him you would think he bloody invented "Northern Soul"? is he dead? I know a lot good gossip about his coke habit? when he stayed in a Blackpool B&B, and could not get a cuppa!tea?what the f**k- and there's More DAVE OF THE WORLD
  10. Name & Shame? is what I say However be tactful the old Liable laws? DAVE KIL
  11. Sorry Harpo but one of the best nites was when John Otway & Wild Woolly Barrett played there, talk about a laugh I nearly Pissed myself, if you don't remember them they did a Funny thing called "i,am Free..really really free!" it was a night with my bruvver who was a Art Student? life not only about Rare Soul? Can you remember the Curry House at the end of Pipers Row opposite the Blue boar, any Curry £1 a go DAVE KIL

    Portobello road normally turns something up and you can pop into INTXICA ask the bloke to let you have a look in his soul boxes, in fact you should do that always in second hand record shops? act knowledgeable when asking don't make a pratt out of yourself? "have you got any 6ts soul to look at please mate?" don't ask for the £250 sound the whole country after, Covent Garden a pleasant walk about Camden is dear? off Oxford st Hannaway st there used to-be 3 shops down there, Wednesday Spitalfields Market plenty of stall and you can have a pint in the 10 Bells, DAVE KIL

    Heres my Demo that I got in Stoke and watched Major Lance, I think it cost £6 big money for the year? best version is by the WHO DAVE KIL
  16. What about JA covers you must agree there are some excellent Jamaican covers inspired in particular by Chicago's & Motown and we all Know the early roots are directly influenced by New Orleans RIFS, are Caribbean people whether living in the Treasure Isle or the UK did they not promote soul in the same way as white pop bands? not to mention those who tried to imitate the Blues was ELVIS n the early years inspired by the black people of Memphis in the same way my musical tastes came from my elder siblings, and youth sub culture they followed as such at the age 16 I was into reggae? one thing is for sure I bought the Uniques "ain't to proud to beg" before I ever heard the Temptations? and its also a fact that the records I relate to from say 67/8/9 are 50% different to my mate from Shepherds Bush? its all about what you herd and the experience of The moment that makes you like a sound? my Golden rule if sounds good and its danceable it gets my vote. 1910 Fruitgum and all DAVE KIL I hope you agree with me and the BOYS?
  17. NICE ONE Great review cheers for this NICE ONE DAVE KIL
  18. I do agree with you about this issue (by the way it was me I think you are referring to? I would like to add, I first met Dave in late 1970 and I got a few soul packs of him also when they moved to Han away street I used to climb the stairs to soul heaven? also I was at Blackpool Mecca the night of his write up and spent sometime chatting, he was a great bloke and like so many gay men at the time there still was a massive stigma attached to being homosexual? as I said before the DG comment, I use to frequent the Soho clubs and all what was considered seedy was unavoidable?) as to the thread I feel your comments about me raising the issue that white people in the UK by playing R&B was not a valid point as such I felt you took my comment out context to make a different point yourself? however it was a good debate and once started she only stop by adult agreement not child like "I am not playing any more" DAVE KIL
  19. I first herd the tearm as we know it in 74 (a) to describe certain Blackpool Recrds such as Marvin holmes and Justice "You better Keep Her" or the Carstairs, ( as poeple wanted to her some of the great "OLDIES" that did not get played the tearm "OLDIES" was use to describe these sounds and as day follows night? "NEWIES" started to be used so in gen tearms I would say 1974 is the year. however collectors have always used the tearm to tell others of their new find, this leads on to the word "DISCOVERIES" DAVE KIL
  20. John Spencer was always asking for the G & W TMG 555 and the Darall Banks G & W back in the 7ts sold him both at £10 DAVE KIL

    Sorry Pete I have to disagree £60 MINT is my price, its an excellent 2 sides and the UK & US Revue copy are both elusive, apart from MJ records? where have you seen a recent copy for sale? DAVE KIL
  22. IN THE FEW MONTHS I HAVE BEEN USING SOUL SOURCE, IT HAS TOOK OVER FROM MY CONSTANST LOOKING AT EBAT ...MY LAPTOP IS SITUAT ALONG SIDE MY DECKS SO INBETWEEN PLAYING RECORDS I AM ALWAYS USING IT??....THE LAST 30 HOURS I MUST OF CHECKED THE SITE 20 TIMES??ITS LIKE AN OLD FRIEND THATS COME HOME? DAVE KIL
  23. I love this record always have? most if not the majority of sales that I have seen are for the US 7-12 inch Sal-Soul releases, and it does seem that the US product has quite a lot of Demos? I would tend to go for the US issue? However as a UK collector of soul, I have found about 6 x 7 inch copies over the years, but not found any in the last 4 years? I have always got a very good price for the record, as it was popular in London when it was issued, I have only come across 1 x 12 inch UK copy and that was at KEELE? with its cover in MINT - for £20 about 4 years ago, as always I must point out the rule of thumb guide in all but 3 cases the UK issue is always worth much more than the US product. and although I was lucky when I got the UK 12 inch, it is easy the rarer of all the issues?. this is one record that although it hurts me to state I probably would by the Boot issue? as its 100% SOUL and a must have DAVE KIL>
  24. Check your Email Pete I cant seem to put them on Soul Source? keep getting Error Message ??? DAVE KIL
  25. After just reading this and viewing the site? I also have made a complaint to EBay, as should every one on soul source? action speaks louder than words? DAVE KIL>
