What's your favourite Temptation?
i went to see the temptations some time in the 70's possibly 75/76 got in free as my mate worked on the door at the free trade hall in manchester they were amazing they did 2 performances in one night one at about 6.30pm and one at about 8.30 stayed for both. how many bands could or would do that now memories fade but they did a lot of the 60's stuff as well as 70's mark

got jazzyjas's today a really good cd so far, listened upto track 4 only, but the booklet and scans with write up certainly gives some of the released cd's a run for their money in the design stakes. i thought making mine took an age you must have started that when you were seven. well that is how long it would take me to produce something like that. good luck with your ambition. i have still got a lot of listening to do. are we doing reveiws or just listening without real comments? mark

ebay advice needed
hi sometimes they can take a few weeks to arrive longest i had was 7 months but that was unusual. if he has posted air mail normally a couple of days but if sea then can take 2/3 weeks. were they expensive if so log on to paypal site i think you may be covered by their ins. also if you paid on your credit card and more than £100 you can claim of them. also on ebay check the services tab there is something on there for non arrival of goods. hope this was some help mark

Playing re-releases / re- issues at gigs?
hi you say you have been a mainstream dj for a long time why not use the money you get from this to purchase originals, this is something dave boothe does as he gets well paid for his dj'ing in clubs which he uses to further bolster his collection. mark

Albert Jones "Up To The Sun"
hi it went for a little over 400 pounds , i have one managed to prise it out of a friends hands for all the lifts i have given him over the last few years did not realise it was that expensive though, i knew it was obscure. never seen a tri city thought bumpshop was a small enough label. mark

frank wilson
there was a list printed in a fanzine with prices /values of motown and stable and frank wilsons value was not that high most were 10 15 dollarrs or more but fw was less than 10 i think may be mistaken but the american collctors in the 60/70s did not rate it high value so this would i assume make it seem there may be a few copies in the US. mark
