thanks dave

thanks guys, gutted, will post up tomorrow what I think is missing, luckily they didn't get everything but 3 thousand singles is devastating, hope you are well Richie and thanks mark for starting this thread

my collection (or most of it) is on purpose built shelves in a room with the turntable etc, i reckon i play something everyday to a greater or lesser degree, i still have everything i bought from way back and still get great pleasure from them. one thing i like is finding something you forgot you had and the feeling of serendipity that gives! (i know, sad bastard )

pretty sure Greety once shut his recod box lid on the salvadors and snapped it in half

well you learn something new everyday! cheers steve and pete

i wasn't being facetious mate it's just i knew the story that popcorn couldn'y remember her name and this is the first time i've heard it quoted, i just wondered how or who did the detevtive work/

is that a documented fact then pete?, or northern soul hearsay?

i can't help myself??? and the other side is a dead ringer for" my girl"

total marvin copy

bought my soul pack around '79 when the price had increased to £12.50 for 100, still a bargain and wished i'd bought more, listed a few below that were in it, still got them all, not bad for 12.5 p each millionaires "you got to love your baby" fletcher walker III "guess i'll never understand" variations "i wanna take you uptown" yvonne baker "i can't change" lee sain "i can't fight it" carlena weaver "jealousy" buckner bros "love you from the bottom of my heart" albert jones "up to the sun" richard starr "love is not a game" tina britt "who was that" betty wright "man of mine" paragons "oh loving you" ISSUE!

this must be a mistake surely :ohmy: :ohmy:

gutted by this news,the first soul record i ever owned was "out on the floor", what a great voice and what a great catalogue of stunning soul, R.I.P. dobie

lp only mate, on the gospel lable myrrh, album is called you're the one, oh and it's donn with 2 n's, notto be confused with the other don thomas

mine's fine too bought it off soul bowl years ago, was mint unplayed but had some background hiss from the start and think they all are a bit hissy but not enough to put you off

he did on most of them but they did an album called "meeting of the minds" where they took turns

ONE OF THE TOUGHEST ON THE LABEL I THINK

i was the bloke with the problem and it's sorted now!! a couple of you have got it right!, it was a combination of the track run out grooves being very short and the tonearm fouling on the side of the fluid dampner container, as this is an optional bit of kit i removed it and problem solved . Fair play to Pete Smith for his cooperation and great service on this matter

Hi Dave, this turned up on a Goldmine cd credited as Popcorn and the Soul messengers, no sleeve notes or other info i'm afraid but i assume it's one of those unissued Popcorn Wylie things? ATB Gary

thanks guys, got what i wanted to know

got a copy of this on harthon, had it about 30 years i reckon, anyone know if it was ever booted or re-issued? ta

can't believe that millionaires , got mine in a soul pack from soulbowl in about 79/80, frankford and wayne stamp etc, it's just not rare!

glad you're still chasing this question ian , i've drawn a blank but still reckon it's him

excellent godz!, you're right about the "all over soul bowl" bit, got a copy in one of their soul packs

was she a solo artist on motown?
