  1. I tried at least 3 times to register for this site with nothing ever coming of it, then tried again and got a confirmation back in 24 hours? Keep at it.
  2. My mum works in the Sue Ryder Cancer shop in Winchcombe, Gloucs and they have someone who looks at all the records that come in first. I used to get first dibs on UK pop/R&R stuff but not anymore. I gave her a list of labels, Stateside, Tamla Motown, London, Oriole, Columbia, etc etc plus "anything with a big hole in the middle" and she used to call me if anything came in!!
  3. Neil Before I pay can you confirm shipping is free to Canada as well? Can you give me a total for the Precisions Ep and Pearl Jones if there is a shipping charge Kevin
  4. See if you can find Jully Black's version of Etta's Seven Day Fool, I nearly spilt me Special K when the video came on local cable news channel. She is a young lass from Toronto. I was dispatched by the wife to buy the CD but - Oh Dear!!!
  5. I think Steve's article was regarding Canadian only release but Basic, Black and Pearl did get a mention. I have a spare copy of There'll Come a Day if someone wants to PM me with an offer. Kevin
  6. I have talked to a couple of guys locally who have almost complete runs of Sparton, Quality, Reo etc and they havent seen/got one. I sold a battered test press last year.
  7. I have just used it a couple of times - 11:00 here in Canada - and had no problem. What to they class as a frequent user?
  8. Dave I havent seen a coloured Curtom from this period, they all seem to be white label and none of them mention promo etc. Mind you I havent actually come across a copy of this in 8 years yet, but have had copious amounts of other Impressions stuff on the white label.
  9. Bettye Lavette - last year as support for Buddy Guy, not very good at all, and we left as Buddy got stuck into about a 30 minute Jam as he wandered around the venue, unfortunatley this was only his second song. Etta James - last year, I understand she has been ill and all that but for the money I was a bit disappointed. Chairmen Of The Board - Glos Leisure Centre - sometime late 70's - God they were abysmall. Surely they have enough material not to have to do an extended Love Train? George Benson - Wembley Arena? - 79/80? - so far at the back I could just see his guitar glinting in the light!! But the worst ever was Tina Turner, again in Gloucester, wife had a niece staying with us as she was going to English school and wanted to go and see her, so off we go. Only time I have ever asked for my money back at a concert.
  10. Believe it or not, one of the best shows I have ever seen was The Stylistics, supported by Candi Satton at Glos Leisure Centre many years ago. They were slick, professional and sounded bloody great. Also saw Bobby Bland about 3 years in the Silver Dollar Room in Toronto, he did 2 shows, 8:00 and 10:00 and to be honest when he shuffled on stage in a Purple Velour Shell Suit I wondered what was going to happen but he was f*#king brilliant. He did a superb version of Bill Withers - Lovely Day as a encore and it was truly superb.
  11. I scared off one of Edwin Starr's backing band at Gloucester Leisure Centre coz he was chatting the wife up, does that count?
  12. Should only be $15/16 for an album from Canada for Air Shipping.
  13. Plus these: Bob Francis - There Goes My Baby - Atlantic - 10 The Tymes - The Love Youre Looking For - s/b sides Columbia promo - 20
  14. Have a few to clear out, all prices in pounds and include shipping from Canada. All in Ex+ at least unless stated. Our Brothers Keeper - You Been A Long Time Coming - s/b sides Columbia promo - 20 Roxetta Johnson - Mine Was Real - Clintone - 20 Barrett Strong - Surrender - Capitol - 20 Andrea Davis - You Gave Me Soul - Chess - 15 - writing on label Mary Wheeler - Prove It - Calla promo - 20 Bobby Womack - Trust Your Heart - Columbia - 10 Evie Sands - Billy Sunshine - Cameo - 10 The Thrills - Bring It On Home - Capitol - 20 Ronnie Dyson - Lady In Red - Jamaican Columbia - vg+ on this one but plays without hardly any noise. Full refund if unhappy obviously - 10
  15. Sorted out a copy of this and John's Bootleg Guide says original has a raised 11 and boot doesnt. He doesnt mention a raised R which my White promo seems to have? Still a boot? Kevin
  16. Someone was looking for this in Wants section yesterday
  17. Where does the Canadian issue fit in with these?
  18. Definately booted, a couple of guys in Toronto have been selling them on ebay for a while, along with the Dean Barlow. I asked one of them where he got them from at a Record Show but surprisingly he wouldnt tell me!!
  19. Also appears on a nice 10" album - Fab-U-Lus Northern Soul https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SOUL---Fab-U-Lus-Nor...4QQcmdZViewItem
  20. Hey Drew As I said, I am sure I saw this on a TV show around the time he first visited, I think it was something like the thing Jools Hoollland used to do. Contact Voices, they may have a copy. I had it on a VHS but that is long gone now I am afraid
  21. Absolutely superb. I am sure I remember seeing this on TV at the time that he came over for his first Thorne appearance?
  22. I am pretty lucky here as I live about 3/4 hour from Toronto and can visit 5 shops that have regular new stuff and decks to listen, then there is Henry's which is at least a 5 hour visit if you want to go through everything. Then there is also all the Rock/Pop shops that turn up stuff every now and again. This doesnt include Kops which it has to be saidi is pretty grim now for Northern. Everything that is even worth a tenner now seems to go to UK where as in the past I could still pick up nice things. There is also Stardust in Hamilton which has turned up stuff now and again and has a deck for listening.
  23. Steve Davis also had an interest in the Mag Voices From The Shadows, in fact I believe he saved it from going under. Rod, about time you resurrected this mag!!!
  24. I actually had 3 of these about 5 years ago and they took ages to sell!!!! What price now?
  25. Not a Charity Shop but best find since being in Canada was 45's at 3 for a $1 from the back of a Ryder Rental truck at a dealers sale as we was getting evicted from his unit: Mighty Pope - If You Want A Love Affair - RCA James Walsh - Cuz Its You Girl - RCA Allen Sisters - In With The Downtown Crowd - Quality Test Pressing - this was well battered but played OK'ish Came away with a couple of 100 Motown, Soul, Reggae, R&B. in the Went back to visit this guy at home a couple of weeks ago in London, ON and came away with the Alexander Patten and Helen Troy I posted in another thread - $1 each!! I also got Choker Campbell - Camel The Hump - Campbell Records - anybody know it? Canadian only? I have also got quite a few other nice things from him in the last few years.
