MAK , i'm the male half of this user name. thankyou for your kind comments and im lookin forward to some stints behind the decks. I will be in th classic oldies room at the 'poppy dayer (soul for heroes) and also the Grafton hall, Lincoln in the next few weeks Ian

Brian Rae plays CD's, Kev Roberts plays Cd's ... probably many more i'm not aware of. thats up to them i suppose. I am doin a couple of DJ spots very shortly and i've been buying lots of vinyl lately (at great expense) to try and keep it authentic, also to prevent having my arse chewed by the vinyl police. folk must remember, some of the records ive (and many others have) had since i was a kid are re-issues and some are originals. lots of originals are way out of most peoples' price range so therefore its inevitable 'boots' or re-issues are gonna get played. I love the vinyl, nothing better than cue'ing a tune ready to set it on its way through a PA but if folks want, or have to play CD's then i aint gonna lose sleep over it. live and let live Debbie-I dont like cds because i can never get that nasty modern cd player to work, i end up putting a dvd into it, as they look the same to me, with a record i know what im looking at!

I noticed that on E Bay some of these 70s issues have been selling for a very high price, i dont mind them if i cannot get or afford the original

Remember me or Touch me in the morning Both wonderful arrangements

I remember this well during the late 70's. very big at Nottm Palais. saw one for sale 3 weeks ago on ebay, went for around the same price. stonking record, well worth a revival
