  1. Bargains indeed, some great records there for a tenner
  2. It's ceased to be underground twice (as mentioned previously) 74/5 with the likes of Pye disco demand, TOTP appearances etc then again in the mid 90s with a massive influx of returnees plus a lot of never were's of the same generation. Factors second time - TV adverts, cd compilations available in your local supermarket, the internet and large promoting organisations who's main concern is getting the maximum number of bodies through the door. For an underground scene, its only been underground for about 40% of its total life approx 20 years out of 50 (65-74 and 79-95) Of course there's still a true underground going to this day that the majority are either unaware of vaguely aware of, but thats another topic...

    I agree, both £30 - if you're selling stick em in sales at £80 each..... they'll fit right in
  4. I don't know who's right and who's wrong in all this but as you have may have guessed, by the number of people on FB getting excited at seeing it or disappointed at missing it, this is important to quite a few. Its a part of our scenes history and our own long lost youth and to see it after 40 years is nice. In an ideal world it should be in the public domain and not just for someone who paid money for it
  5. I answered your question in the first reply......
  6. Yes, well no its the sharpees but I know what you mean.......
  7. The motown ones have been done by Richard Searling
  8. They are but that fact has no relevance in todays record buying market......
  9. Yes mate, on Stockwell Gate between the market and Queen St
  10. You know I'm just a young pup - mind you, as of last Friday i'm closer to 60 than 50.......... Is the frank you're on about the one who we got to know at Burnley/Lifeline etc in recent years? He was from Warsop originally and moved to Notts. Robinsons Tailors was where most of our crowd had our trousers made in the late 70s, much better than jeloneks...............
  11. No that was me, didn't make the last cornerhouse but will be at the next one
  12. Was at a party a couple of years ago and Ivor bought me a pint............ I nearly fainted Great photos BTW Derek
  13. Nice memories but they're mostly pressings aren't they? could be a list of stuff I bought at the time - same as most people I knew back then. They were only 85p in Syd Booths in Mansfield though, bargain..
  14. Who's said the scene is dead or dying at this point in time?? The point is whats it going to be like in the future when everyone who's in their 50s & 60s now are either dead or too old to go out. When the wheel, torch and wigan closed, there wasn't a large group of people closer to the end than the beginning their lives. I'll repeat what i said earlier, there might be some small thing going on in 20 years time (maybe less) but not on the scale of today.
  15. Next time you're out and about estimate what percentage of the crowd are young (young being under 40) As time goes on there will possibly be some remnants of a scene left but in 20 years the original generation will be in their 80s (those that are still alive) - anyone who thinks the scene will be anything like its is today is quite frankly living where the cloud cuckoos do.....

  17. Remember it well - Hollingwood hotel, sometime in the early 90s i think. One of my faves that doesn't get a mention very often is Al Williams - Try Them ......... Detroit brilliance
  18. Look forward to getting it Dave, if its anything like the fanzine it'll be superb
  19. I suppose we've all got different tastes but I couldn't get past the first 30 minutes, looked very poor to me....
  20. Not you obviously, whoever responded as if your post was serious .......
  21. Maybe googling "sense of humour" might be useful......

  23. Special memory seeing her/them at Northampton - one of those magic moments
  24. I don't think people in general realise that as you get to our age your memories aren't necessarily what you think they are. They can become distorted and change over the years and although you think you can remember something accurately, you could easily be wrong. Just thought I'd throw that in,,,,,,,
