pretty certain listings only show up on both sites if you're listings state" will post to worldwide"otherwise only shows up on ebay.co.uk Mick

dave might be able to help you out on that,I'll let you know Mick think he's on his jollies at the moment chris,stateside

thanks for that steve,I had a go at recording from the media player,but being a total technophobe gave up think I need some software is it nero? look forward to your show,just wondered if someone had the full show,how did flanny get his show uploaded?the ripple blast singers seemed to strike a chord with dave lucas........quality mate Mick

did any one record the show last night?all the technology went tits up,managed to listen to it but wouldn't mind a copy of the show any one help? Mick

quick reminder,(alright,blatant self promotion)for sunday june 18th's show,Mick Howard guesting on Mark's excellent soul shack 8-10 pm,early sixties soul,touch of R+B,storming northern soul and a few seventies/crossover things Mick

"never set you free" also done by the continental showstoppers on the flip of "we're not too young" Mick

first issues are red,re-issues more of an orange colour,hope that helps Mick

Hi salmon,yes pete thorpe always known for his great love/knowlege of the music,as you say more into the deep side of soul,think he took early retirement from the fire service and sold his collection about five years ago,but I did hear he'd started collecting again,remember you lending me your copy of the uptights"shy guy"'cause it was my favourite record at the time circa 79/80 and before you ask I did give it you back...coughs.. best Mick Howard

Hi Mark,looking forward to what will be my third guest appearance in the soul shack,as on my previous slots bringing a right old mix up of styles and tempos,early sixties,storming northern soul and some choice crossover cuts,see you there, can't wait Mick

I've got the 7" columbia promo,wouldn't say it was a bad edit,any truth in the story the lead singer is evelyn king? Mick

"save me" on the flip side of "respect" on the UK release is awesome

got one off col kidson at king's hall earlier this year,I was so pleased didn't even try to bargain him down,think it was £40,had two copies with t'other B side couldn't shift 'em then sold both copies within two nights Mick

Mike having a problem sending PM's screen saying message sent,but when checking sent messages not registering,OK recieving them,any ideas? Mick

yes seem to remember miranda being not best pleased at having to drive over to wigan with the breakdown card that someone...........cough left back in sunny reddish,much more civilised day out at salford,some great anecdotes left in the guest book wasn't there and dave withers on the original footage looking very youthful and sounding very eloquent,if you've not been to the salford exhibition it's worth a look Mick

Hi Mark,yeah got "why would you blow it"then round at Derek Pearson's one night 'ere Mick you might like this one,yeah not bad lol,booked at £25,should pick one up pretty easy,they are out there,just waiting for someone to offer me one for sale,eh Mark.......... .thanks for the mention on the radio,see you've got a copy of the heartbreakers now Mick

coming through loud and clear this side of the penines chaps,holidays "I lost you " on now Mick

anybody remember a DJ called billy paul,seem to remember him from the early days,from ashton under lyne I think,never heard of him since Mick

sounds bang on alan,haven't really kept any memorabilia but do remember edwin starr inviting some of the dancers on stage just to watch them spin,remember being disapointed with jackie wilson's appearance and walking off up to M's but as we later found out he was really ill at the time,that was '75 wasn't it? Mick

without doubt the best live act to have appeared there absolutely blew me away,what made it even more astounding was the show was nearly cancelled because she had such a severe throat infection she could hardly talk on the day of the gig,somebody should bring her back over to appear at one of the weekenders,did anyone go to one of edwin starrs early appearances at the casino,possibly '74,had a really funky backing band called TCB later went on to fame and fortune as rose royce Mick

I used to go to the seven stars in heywood,heard many of the big sounds of that time circa72/73 courtesy of some of the older lads who used to go to the pendulum and vava's remember hearing sandi sheldon,just brothers and many more all mixed in with the pop stuff of that time,groundbreaking stuff eh the first across the board night out lol,agree with the list used to see these every week in both ralph's shops in manchester and soul galore in the oasis market,happy days Mick

think that was a bit earlier wasn't it ?on salsoul if my fading memory serves and had a few northern spins Mick

great record,you should look out for his philadelphia international album from where the track originally comes from, said track re-issued on a 12" in the last few years with teddy p on the flip Mick

which one? shall we hazard a guess "hey baby" "stop and think it over" "I will never let you get away"

april fool

it's around £40 now Mark that's what I paid,adey pierce had one on ebay the other week think it went for around that,did you get that flyer I sent you mark?let me know I'll re send it Mick
