My taste in music must be changing because i think this is utter dross, i wouldn't part with a tenner for it in minty condition
.....the strange world of .......ahhh you thought i was going to put N soul
.no the collectors need to have a track at any cost, and im utterly guilty of it
....but i would draw the line at this track.... the soundbites are shocking....hope it washed up better Nev.
thank god we've all got different tastes or all my wants would be totally snapped up

Ouch............ im reading a few things on here that are making me cringe, for those who know me, for over 10 years i worked for a Canadian company who specialised in degrading polymers i.e degradable plastics etc and one of the macro molecular scientists who had developed many of the degradation materials told me about the damage things like detergents do to carbon materials such as vinyl and how ordinary tap water can allow limescale into the grooves and bugger them, im at work at present but i'll dig out a little piece i did for my friendship booklet about 5 years ago based on what he advised and post up later tonight.
To be honest though age is a killer plastics do naturally degrade (albeit we'll be dead before they get to the point of useless)

Nick
if you were 18 or 19 and used to buying the latest soul releases these were 'rare grooves'. You couldn't buy them in Our Price or Virgin and they took some searching out if you weren't part of a scene with an established collecting ethic.
I think that there is a constant upset with people of the rare soul scenes who feel miffed that someone called them rare grooves, which ignores the fact that the quality of what was played was exceptional.
Dean
Dean im not sure our price and virgin were going in the early eighties ( im messing) but your right it had become a slightly specialist buy, there were loads of record shops where you could go to In Newcastle we had Callers and Hitsville USA, In Whitley Bay we had DJs records run by a club DJ called Ruben Condi i bought some superb stuff from there and in North Shields - Rumbelows run by another DJ called (i kid you not) Captain Groovy (trevor was his real name LOL) but if you wanted a tune new release or back catalogue all of these would get them in for you, apart from hitsville who were buying all that stuff in anyway by the shed load.
And i used to order from hotwaxx in warrington Kev Edwards place.
I do agree with nick they weren't rare grooves there used to be and are shed loads of some of the tracks labeled "raregroove" they were just not mainstream, a bit like any specialist area.

From the early to mid eighties the two step rare groove scene had a huge following, I used to run a club in whitley bay called the compass for four years we had a sunday soul night playing from northern right through to recent releases, through the week the background music was all stuff like weldon irvine I love you, light of the world, direct drive, glenn jones, lenny white, & most of the tracks mentioned previously in this post and many never to be heard of again artists etc etc,
There were some superb DJs out there who used to push this stuff into the mainstream dance club scene like Lofty who was the main dj at the Garden farm nr chester le street and the Sands club in whitley bay, Peter simpson who became my dj at the compass but originally from churchills could go to Churchills on a saturday night in Whitley and hear stuff i've never even heard of again on the modern soul scene and of course when i moved south i used to go to an exceptional night at Clouds in Bradford on a Wednesday with my big buddy Peter Briscoe from whitehaven where yogi and owen would push some superb music, not withstanding the huge contribution Thorne had on this scene from the early eighties. (loved it back then) and who cannot fail to mention The Carlton Club Warrington that was brilliant.
I suppose my point is its always had a following and why not, the 60s scene has always had its rare portion and i suppose when djs play out new releases they don't know at that time they are going to be rare groove, those tracks just didn't take off for whatever reason. but music collectors or followers of this genre did put themselves out, heard these tracks and pockets of clubs and supporters did manage to find venues for like minded soul where they could listen to them.
Heres one for you though...sheffield community radios anyone listening to that in the eighties were treated to musical delights it was like people just came off the street with a box of records and said give us a spot they played from the heart, some of the stuff was mind blowing (some of the djaying was questionable LOL big pauses mis cues ) BUT no one could fault the groundbreaking music they played.
I dont think either that a lot of the USA music we were listening to even crossed over to the Jazz funk scene of the time, a lot was aimed at the club scene (probably to slow down from the 126 BPM disco tracks that used to grace the decks LOL)
I do think Norman Jay who was mentioned earlier whilst wasn't the originator of the scene he did have the wider platform to promote it and that he did.
But i also remember a DJ called Ian Hughes with his rhythm and groove show and Andy Peebles and before that Al matthews saturday night soul show all on radio two they were just as instrumental at pushing brand new and rare tracks
