hi alan £300.00 raised on the night not bad going for an extra night and no entrance fee mark

didnt this get a showing on emmerdale a few years ago i think eric pollard held up a supposed uk issue and said it was avery rare record but it was the wrong label i think may be wrong mark

mine is the california playboys album on loadstone. mark

same thing with me i was polite to him but he gets shirty when you tell him it is to expensive. mark

lp's in my play bag are berys hammond reggae soul water lily (dont make me wait too long) california playboys self titled losdstone 3 good tracks solid solution as mentioned by richard (joe orton) wille and west at their best turbo? tempests as mentioned all with lp only tracks so you have to have them. mark

tabby thomas your'e all i got ? forgot label and i am not going upstairs to look. remembered label hip city mark

well we will find out in january as we will have soul sam as guest at the greatstone. i personally do not think it makes a great difference for the smaller clubs but for the larger nights i would imagine they are needed mark

the one that is for me northern soul The Coasters crazy baby Atco mark

isnt there another version by the guy who wrote it mark

i had heard that carl willingham has a dolly parton record that when he plays it it is played at 33 instead of 45. allegedly mark

hi jason i would think it can get lonely just being a collector but the beauty of being a collector and into northern modern or any other style in england is that we have the clubs to meet like minded people, and chat to them about records and soul minutae and therefore not bore our partners, but we all have lives outside the scene. my wife and i travel quite a bit and our mutual close firends are not into soul so we spend a lot of time with them, but the only downside to a partner who does not like the same music is you have to keep it to yourself when you do find that bargain, because they do not have a clue and are not interested, like you say they just say something like why waste your money it just sits there in a box just buy it on cd like you say you have to bend and enjoy life. hopr you do come to cleethorpes next year we will have to have a chat have not been to baltimore nearest i have been is annapolis and washington we did a tour around washington and virginia and drove through maryland a couple of years ago. will be in florida next year going to key west for 19 days and then to vegas four 4 days. been to america about 8 times in last 6 years and only been in 3 record shops, mark

very nice sets this i why i rate chris as one of the top dj's around he can play in any room. mark

i have been told by my wife that i am obsessed with records but i hardly drink, never smoked do not do drugs, love northern and crossover and 70's only go out a couple of times a month, never played away, what more do women want, oh forgot i am handsome and debonair as well. as far as i am concerned the soul scene is just like having a hobby. looks like i am a boring record obsessed old fart mark

sorry forgot to put it on

you could also attend the greatstone on 18th december as a northerner i have an excuse for not attending sitc, but i was watching the great manchester united beat arsenal, not shouting now are you alison. mark

does anybody know anything about this record bachelor brad and the black ensemble birds of a feather kris was on anglo this year descibed as awsome crossover £500.00. mark

8pm- 9am Flirtations- Stronger than her love (festival) Syl Johnson- Do you know what love is (Special Agent) Lee Bates - Why don't you write (Instant) Larry Santos- You got me where you want me (Evolution) Jimmy Bee - If it wasn't for love (20th Century) Deadbeats - No second chance (Strata) Athens Rogues - She could love me (Stop) Johnny Robinson - Gone but not forgotten (Okeh) Duke and Leonard - Just do the best you can (Stomp Town) Margie Hendrix- One room paradise (Mercury) Sandpipers- Lonely too long (Giant) The Stingers _ I refuse to be lonely (Stax) Karmello Brooks- Tell me baby (Milestone) Roosevelt matthews - You got me digging you (King) Bob and Fred- I'll be on my way (Big Mack) to me all of these are well known and i am one of the ones who dissapeared for 12 years i am also one of the ones who goes to most soul nights to hear something new of have not heard for a long time this was why i started in the first place. it seems to be a case to me of always read the instructions first as the flyers seldom lie if it says rare 60's 70's and northern then that is what you will get. as someone who runs a small night that is a rare underplayed 60's and 70's and some 80's night if someone does not enjoy it i would rather they told you than rant about it to the world without giving the promoter a chance to put his point of view. and yes i do also attend oldies nights but my favourite nights are still the rare nights be it northern or crossover or rare 70's Marquee Review- what good tomorrow (Pacific Revue) this is an awesome record especially because i have a copy, have been playing it for about a year. in case you are wondering i run the greatstone hotel stretford manchester with my friend tony and we average about 70 through the door. long live rare soul. mark

Usually I'd go for Thelma , but on Saturday night somebody played Junior's version nice and loud - talk about smokin' sax! Pity he could never sing, mind... Jerry. isnt there another really nice track on the uk or european release that is not on the us release of the album. prefer juniors version remember thelmas from the mecca. mark

could this be gone now by fran jeffries on monument? mark

we seem to have come to a dead stop with the reviews and still 2 cds missing. mark

i think chris churm also has this if it this then he has had it a long time and played it to carl if my memory serves me right. mark

pete try les at king bee in chorlton manchester as he deals in reggae as well. mark address is wilbraham rd chorlton-cum-hardy.
