  1. 22 years for me and the magics still there, so many great nights, Maxine and Ray Pollard among the best. Remember descending the stairs at the start of one nighter and Mick was tearing the place up with 'why when the love is gone', EVERYONE was dancing and it was only 2am . (Still miss Clarky tho ) Baby head wetting and 30 years in one night, top hole dear boy, top hole. Jim
  2. R.I.P, put me onto so many tunes via his scribings, a real soul searcher. Jim
  3. I'll never forget that night at Trentham. 'Bring back the love of yesterday' indeed. Rest in peace. Jim
  4. Crumbs, was just saying I thought the show and the guests guests were great , not sure there was any hero worshipping going on. Oh well. Jim
  5. Actually Eddie, on exploration in the loft said copy of Shades has been located and I think it was you who reviewed it for Derek in the first place! Will ping off my address in a bit. Cheers!! Jim.
  6. Folks First became aware of this Sam Dees penned wrist slashing opus via Mr Pearsons invaluable Soul research mag aka 'Shades of Soul' in 1996 and eventually got a rather ropey tape with it on to satisfy my hunger (thankfully refosoul refreshes the parts tapes cannot reach these days) Does anybody know if it ever came out on an album, or is it a 45 only affair? Expensive I assume? Ta Jim.
  7. A great shame, not sure the show was ever the same when it all became 'Smooth', all rather watered down and more 'commercially viable' I suppose for the new owners. Prior however, it was a different kettle of fish, the likes of Dean, Mr Godin, Ady, Mick Smith Andy Rix, Arthur, Sam, Nancy Yahiro, Tim B, Ralph Tee and of course Ian L and lord knows who else playing some of the most obscure and tremendous music on the planet every Sunday was an education turning me onto the whole soul spectrum. Still listening to those tapes now! Thanks Richard. Jim

    Genius
  9. Yes mate, me and thee I seem to remember 'dance club international' was it's name, about 1988 ish. Jim
  10. I think the reissue was a 'legit ish' affair from the land of the rising sun, about 25 nikka. As for the kosher I've seen it anywhere from 25 to 125 (?). Was the label set up by some shady accountant as a tax scam or some such? Frank Dell elpee also. Great music. Jim
  11. Love this, any info on it would be mucho appreciated, all the usual, label, current value blah blah Thanks folks Jim
  12. Deep Soul Treasures..................need I say more. Thanks Dave, RIP. Jim
  13. [ Do wish Tim would stop writing to us as if he is lecturing us from "on high", he doesn't know it all, and he certainly, like the rest of us, doesn't have all the records. A bit more humility wouldn't go amiss now and again. Hear bloody hear. Jim

    Stronger than me............................................still does it for me. Tremendous . Jim
  15. What a record. Seem to remember reading somewhere that the song was originally intended for Jackie Wilson, who wasn't that partial to it, the backing was recorded in Chicago and Tony's vocal added in NYC at a later date. Altho' I may be talking bol?$ there Cheers Jim
  16. 'out on the floor tonight' on Inferno, purchased shortly after release. Thanks Neil . Regards Jim.
  17. Billy Preston, the girls got it Ketty Lester,west coast Parliaments, a new day begins Chuck Jackson, thats me loving you Maxine Brown, IOU Ta ra Jim
  18. So many tunes but the one I always go back to on record room nites is 'Stay with me' on Granite, 'She should have been home' from the War and Peace album is rather tremendous as well. Sadly missed. Jim
  19. Nice surprise this, always thought 'love has to grow' was a scarce 'un. I'm off to the shops. Jim
  20. Bloody hilarious. . Jim
  21. The black 'play box' just reads unknown playlist format. No idea what that means? . Confused Jim
  22. It won't play a doggone thing, is it my computer?? Jim
  23. I vividly remember first hearing about Dave when he wrote the sleevenotes to 'rare soul uncovered volume 1' as a spotty teen in 1983 or 4 just starting to discover this music. Writing a succinct few paragraphs on the rare soul scene is difficult, but he managed it with aplumb, if you've got it you'll know what I mean. Then of course came the sleevenotes to 'The Northern Soul Story vol 1', as above. However, Gt Yarmouth 1991 both his spots in the 'Northern' room and on the radio showed da man got taste and he introduced me to a wider appreciation of black american music, eg TJ Williams, Channel 3, Dena Johnson.. REGARDLESS OF PRICE. Thanks Dave. Jim
  24. Daft this, but we were living about a mile away at the time and it's always been a constant annoyance to me I missed out! !! (As I was a bairn) told you it was daft. It has tho', always been fascinating to me this place (it's a snooker club now) great to see those photos and flyers on t'other thread. Perhaps a UTJ reunion opinion should be floated? I've always had a pervish interest in the lesser mentioned but equally important venues. Regards Jim
  25. At the risk of being a touch cliched............Timi Yuro. Now there's a lass that could sing Jim ........................and Dusty of course.
