+ Can't really tell you waht we played as it was a very private night, special to us...lol Mark Bicknell.

Stayed at home too Stevie due to work the next day, had a blinding night playing records....just me and the Mrs.....no floor to please or fill, had a brilliant session, played records from 8.30pm through to about 2am with Irma Thomas in between of the Jools Holland show....fantastic.oh and we got very drunk...lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Wonderful...lol Mark Bicknell.

Ditto Paddy and i'll be there all weekend this time...lol........already started the build up on my Solar show, let's talk soon. The Falcons...how cool is that? Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Get well soon mate, i'll give you a call soon for a chat, all the best. Mark Bicknell.

--> QUOTE(Mike B @ Jan 2 2006, 11:03 PM) link Its one of them love it or hate it records I think Mark but probably the nearest I'll get to JB or Bobby James unless of course I went for a re-issue perish the thought - I remember someone on here offering a copy up a few months ago but not sure how hard it is ? I guess its one that disappears into collections and stays there.... One day Happy New Year all Mike B Interesting though this Mike, having met both Jimmy and later Bobby James who wrote 'I Really Love You' AKA Robert Newsome, they both had no knowledge of the Brand New Faces version, totally different lyric as you know so they must have just borrowed the backing track, i still have Jimmy's version also have had the Karol release but sold it on a few years ago, i'm sure if you hunt around you will source a copy of the Brand New Faces version...happy hunting.....i'll ask around for you ok. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Mine has to be Esko Affair - Salt And Pepper - Mercury so so lyrics but oh what a backbeat, proper Northern....lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Long live Jimmy Burns oh and Bobby James....happy hunting...lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

lol....very sad mate...oh mines not watered damaged...lol Mark Bicknell.

Yes Thanks.........Happy New Year. Mark Bicknell.

Been working solid since Boxing Day and at least another ten days to go without a day off, thought sod it night in with a case of Fosters and upstairs i went, playlist to follow over next couple of days.....lol, my wife Jacqui and myself have just celebrated one of the best new years ever with a little help from the collection far too much to drink and Irma Thomas on the Jools Holland show....to those of you who were out and about ......suckers lol oh my god she was brilliant.....happy new year to you all. Regards Mark and Jacqui Bicknell.

I already know who the acts are...lol Mark Bicknell.

respect. Mark Bicknell.

HERE! HERE! Stevie, best to say nothing mate, if you have an opinion then someone else has a box to put it in....lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Fair comment. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Just to wish everyone on Soul Source and the scene a very happy and Soulful 2006. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

No i mean what i say and i stick by my comments...would it be pious if your good name and reputation were in question here...i think not. Col i've sent you a private message off line because this is not really our battle is it? which should underline my comments, which were meant in good faith and simply showing some support, i would have said the same things if it was aimed at anyone not just John Manship. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Oh well. Mark Bicknell.

One final point regarding the West Coast haul and finding multi counts or boxes of big titles which may or not be true, who in their right mind would declare such information? perhaps when 'big quanitity' turns up then a more realistic set sale selling price is the best thing to do i.e. Danny Moore, Royal Esquires, Dream Team etc. then everyone who wants a copy has a fair chance of getting one at a fair price, as Trevski said if you don't like auctions, their methods or practices then simply don't bid. I would suggest that Mike Hughes closes this topic as i'm sure we all feel that this topic has very much over stepped the mark be it fact, fiction, true or otherwise, it all seems just a little too heavy. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I think this is a disgrace personally, that Jonh Manship's good name, integrity and reputation should be questioned here, it's almost the last straw for me what with all the politics and the numerous other crap this fucking scene needs to take a very close look at it's self before it implodes, what the hell would John gain from bumping up the prices etc. i would suggest he's been in buisness all these years because he's a fair a decent guy, this is slander or at least the implications of slander and i would'nt blame John if he took a serious look at some form of litigation towards these comments. Mark Bicknell.

Can i marry her?...lol nice one, several years ago my wife bought me a nice Luther Ingram white Hib demo for a £100.00 but this was the only time she's bought me a record for Christmas...nice though. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Mine is clean as a whistle no water damage, got it from 'Soul Bowl' many moons ago for a snip 8 quid i think..lol have seen this for £300.00 not to long ago but i reckon it's a safe £150.00 record, two fantastic sides and there are lesser records selling for far more money than this beauty. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

The very same copy...lol Thanks Cookie. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Little Bob - My Heart Is On Fire - arrived Christmas Eve, not from Santa as i treated myself. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Glad you enjoyed it, i imagined everyone sat at home bored shitless and needing some souling, i hope it hit the spot...lol, i even listened to the first half hour not that i could move off the sofa...lol now off to bed bloody working tomorow, hope to see a few of you in Barnsley at the Friendship gig................enjoy the rest of Christmas. Regards - Mark Bicknell.
