At Fleetwood,Searling played an unreleased Sandra Richardson track,which he described as the thing he's ever had,in 30 years.(how many times have we heard that? :-) ) He also said it was almost too precious to play out!Anyone know the score on this? Cheers Pete -
Just been on the Sky news.He's being held by customs at Aukland Airport.Apparently they found a false bottom in his suitcase.

Surely in this day and age,all dealers should have a paypal/bidpay account. I've only once sent cash for an item,I know a couple of lads that were posties!!! You'd never send cash again if you'd heard the stories I have! Pete

Most definitely kenny Thomas accompanied by a 30 piece band.Was recorded in the 90's but never got released.Coming out shortly on Street Soul 2 CD. Absolutely fantastic piece of soul music,a lot of people will knock it,because he's white.far.far superior to Crazy World Cheers Pete

I find that the majority of people into Modern from the North West/Midlands came through the Northern thing and branched off into Modern in the late 70's early 80's wereas the majority of Southern people into Modern,were pretty much unaware of the Northern scene,and did the Caister,Chris King,Froggy thing. Cheers Pete
OOPS Derek sums it up,to me crossover means the transitional period between the late sixties and early seventies. What about the term 'Modern' Lot's of people refer to Skip Mahoney,Charles Alston,Lew Kirton as Modern.How can they be Modern?they're 25 years old!They were Modern when they were first played,but not any more,I class them as Northern oldies.They'll probably get played on the main floor at Stoke this weekend,but they certainly won't get a play upstairs in the Modern room.I take 'Modern' to mean new and recent releases. Hope this hasn't confused the issue too much! Pete
It's not that hard,I paid £30 for mine on British EMI Cheers Pete

She replaced Carolyn Crawford on vocals,I can't remember which album though.Will have a rummage through,see if I can dig it out.A good excuse to listen to their albums again.Micheal J Powell was involved with them,he went on to produce some awesome stuff! Pete
Now you are talking.Chapter Eight are one of my fave bands.Anita Baker used to Sing vocals with them before she went solo and released 'Songstress' which is in my top five fave albums. Pete
Was played as a new release in Wigan by R.S. Cheap as chips,you can pick a 12" for a fiver. It came off the album 'The Poet' which is an essential lp you should have in your collection. cheers Pete
Ive seen a luther MAW go for £50,recently saw Shazz-Innerside orig mix yellow records for £50,there's quite a quick turnover of sounds,played for a few weeks then on to new things.Most stuff goes for £8 to £12 cheers pete
Definitely auctioned off,I bought a couple of bits off the list.
I know who the 3 are ;-)) It was Mike that first called me PeteBangor,cos I'm from Bangor and I like a bit of the banging stuff,so it's stuck. :-)))
There's still quite a bit of it getting plays at several venues.You can hear soulful house/garage at most Modern venues.Lowton,Winsford,Stoke KGH,Soul Underground,Prestatyn Weekender,Jazz fm weekenders.A lot of dj's tend to include some house/garage in their sets.Colin curtis,Pete Haigh,fish,Baz Maleady,Jamie taylor,mark randle,Paul Sutton are a few that play it.Some dj's won't entertain it.Richard Searling and Sam(apart from Ron Carrol) don't play any. The general concensus is that this year the 'soulful' house releases have dried up a little,and you really have to dig deep for it.I know I certainly haven't bought as much of the stuff this year as I have in previous years.Never the less it still remains popular with a lot of people,and there is an element that are opposed to it. There's been some heated debates on the modern soul forums about it.Reminds me of the 60's v 70's debates in the late 70's when Sam was playing stuff like Coffee-Casanova at the Casino as a new release Hope that helps Pete
