Nolan Chance On Bunky. How I Found This Ultra Rare 45
Great story Tony, thanks for sharing that. Regarding the other records I can just see a story in the local newspaper "bizarre burglary at local mans house - thieves broke in and left all the valuable goods behind, just taking some old boxes of worthless old records- local police are mystified "

Naughty Boy: Jackie Day
I'm not sure what the capitals are all about, you seem to have taken offence to my questions - I'm not sure why? Thanks for the reply though it all makes sense now. I was looking at the situation from the perspective of the UK soul scene ie where people started travelling to the US in the early 70s to find records. 1967 seemed unusually early but your post makes this clear now. Fascinating story, any other input along similar lines would be appreciated by me

Naughty Boy: Jackie Day
I realise this was a defining record for the scene in the Stafford era - I just wondered if i was in a minority in not liking it thats all Garv. If other people love it great, even though I dont like it I appreciate the story surrounding it as well especially the fact that it was dug out in 1967 - amazing!

What Makes A Good Dancer Great?
Fair comment Mark but for me as well, I've always enjoyed watching dancers and part and parcel of that is that some are better than others. Nothing wrong with people who cant dance so well but I really enjoy watching the good ones. The good ones being in my personal opnion of course cos I think dancing is the same as music - we all have a different opinion on whats good or not. Not big on acrobatics (only in small doses) interpretation and feeling of the music is the most important

John Manship Auction / Gwen & Ray
A big memory for me this one when first introduced to the music via local youth club around 74ish. Agree with previous comments, I've not heard it played out much since that time. Why do you think its been generally overlooked by the oldies scene in comparison to similar records of that era? Always liked it myself

Do You Have Enough Money To Be A Top Northern Soul Dj?
Get out of your comfort zone and get yourself up to the Burnley all nighter next week to hear Chalky and the other top notch DJ's there. It might open your mind up to whats happening outside the bubble that is the East Midlands oldies scene. You keep mentioning underplayed tunes, same as Kev i'd like to know what these are. At Burnley you'd hear plenty plus some cutting edge stuff plus a fair few big oldies. Try it you never know you might like it
