Great article. Have a blast all.

Agreed Ivor. Mick has been top notch down those stairs over the years. I vividly remember walking in the door in the 80s to him playing 'Why, when love is gone' by the Isleys and the place was going ffing bananas...and the nighter had only just started, EVERYONE WAS ON THE FLOOR. Best Jim

Certainly. Jim.

Jesus H Christ, how did it come to this?

RIP . Jim.

I was at Yarmouth this year, the worse for wear with the black stuff and this amazing track boomed out of the speakers on the Saturday night with a very familiar voice I just couldn't trace. On asking....'Its Johnnie Taylor, ' I just wonna testify....' Oh dear, Ive only had it about 25 years and never played it that I can remember. And I call myself a Soul fan Clueless Jim

Superb thread!

1991, courtesy of Mr. Dearlove I seem to remember. Is it really that long ago? Jim.

Roll on September for me! Jim.

Total (unsung) legend from the great era of Chicago Soul, involved in countless sides. Jim

Great article Ady.

Hi Mike, thanx for that mate, my second copy I got in downtown Osaka and will soon be moving on then! Cheers Jim

Still, awesome.

Hi all Anybody any idea the current value of this Japanese album? Mitty, Emory and the dynamics etc. Wonderful stuff really, Cheers Jim.

Theo Coff invasion, promo (or not) in mint condition. Cheers all Jim.

Ian Clarke, without a doubt my biggest influence in taste and style and a top bloke to boot, could read the floor so well. ATB Jim.

A great read indeed, so much still applies! Regards Jim.

Many thanks for the music, RIP. Jim.

RIP George. Jim
