Wouldn’t it be 20% of his 20% commission only? I think that's right, but correct me if I'm wrong. Whichever, the seller will lose 20% of the sale to commission - If the vat paid was 20% of the sold figure, the seller would be losing 40% after the commision, so that can't be right. All the best, Len P.s - Makes me really think about parting with my copy though, as I have a Corporation Tax Bill I can't afford coming my way....

Are you sure he was really there Terry? lol Len

….and of course, there's the other argument (or shall we kindly say disagreement?) with ref to 'Soul Music' or 'Northern Soul Music' and there is a difference - It’s, what ‘Soul Music’ should or shouldn’t be accepted on the Northern Soul Scene? This is why some folk hate using the term ‘Northern Soul’ Car music? Not for you Terry I know - you just sling it out of the window if you don't like it! lol All the best, Len

You’re right, it was 'Slosh’ - My mistake (well actually it was Steve’s mistake but I wouldn’t be so petty as to point that out) No offence taken really, I was just pushing the point that (as had been said many times) we all have different tastes…..it’s just unfortunate that only mine is correct All the best, Len

....and in addition.....I take offence at 'Mid-tempo Tosh' (Obviously) All the best, Len P.s - At 'The Den' I played 8 'Midtempo Magic' (Which I prefer to call them) records to not just a packed room, but a packed dance floor.....I really should have taken a photo (that had sound)....

I knew what you meant Barry......As for the rest? All I can say is - How many times have you lost the remotes? - It’s sooooo annoying, especially when you end up finding them right next to you after all!..... .....Now, that's cryptic! All the best, Len

Yes, once you can’t smell the sweaty socks of the people dancing to your records, you’ve lost touch - Adam has never done that..... .....I know what I mean Len

Well done Len

Brilliant - Not forgetting 'Atlantic Star - Circles' of course. Cheers, Len

Didn't you all back then?! lol Everytime Nina and I watch one of the many documentry's that feature Keb Darge, like clock work Nina always says "Look, Keb with hair!" - Brilliant! Len

Hi Kev, 82' - You beat me Kev, I was only 12 then and not even aware full stop! Yes, Nige knows his stuff, and has got some awesome tunz himself. All the best, Len (You should do Modern Kev, it's not that bad honest mate) Dopson

Is Marc Farley the dark haired guy who used to run Morecombe Pier? - This info is only going by my Black and White 'Archive' Video tapes All the best, Len

Hi Neil, The first time I saw Adam D.J, he was doing a true ‘Adam set' - ‘Doug Parkinson — I’ll Be Around’, ‘Skip Mahoney — Janice’, 'The Dells - Your Song’, it absolutely blew me away at that time — Fantastic stuff! Len 'The Dells — Your Song’

Well I like him already! If one day I actually get to meet this here Rob Marriot, apart from thanking him for the tapes I indirectly acquired which have influenced my music taste immensely, I’ll ask to meet his older brother - No, I’ll ask to meet his whole family as it seems to me that they are of good stock! All the best, Len

Yes Tats - Great Ol' Boy! What's his history? As in, was he a regular D.J at one particular club? I know he's still doing 'the rounds' everywhere and was kind enough to D.J at my 40th which I really appreciated. Len

Come to think of it, there were a couple of girls who danced in front of the stage at The Fleet, Peterborough who also danced in unison, they wore tennis skirts which was something a teenage boy like me noticed!....... ......I’m talking about the fact they danced in unison of course lol - this would have been the late 80’s, so maybe different girls. ‘Soul People Of Interest’ to me anyway! Len

He was pretty much the main man in most Modern Rooms for years, but those rooms got replaced with R 'n' B or 'alternative' rooms mainly, which I think is a shame because it strengthened the divide between Oldies and lesser known stuff, when they should all be played in the same room (Just my 'Off Topic' opinion) Len P.s - I'm now on a differnt computer and can only do '' for some reason!

Can anyone comment about what part Adam played as far as Stafford goes? I'm guessing he played stuff like 'Rumours' etc there. All the best, Len

Fantastic - Now that is a 'Soul Person Of Interest!'....."Have you met the wife?" All the best, Len

Hi Joan, Um, I'm confused now (It don't take much!)......I'll go and read the opening post again................................................................................................... ...............................................Right, yes....No, hang on...............................................................Yes, that's it - The thread can be about people who have influenced you, which would go hand in hand with 'People of Interest' really - You would hope so anyway! No need to apologise Joan All the best, Len

Hi Ed, I don't know Chris Marriot or Dave Molly - Who are they? / What did they do? / Where did they play? / What tunes did they play? etc. All the best, Len

Who? Yes, I knew Shifty when he was an apprentice - I've always said he'd have spoilers on his record box if he could, bless him All the best, Len

Yes, I admire anyone who 'goes against the grain' sticking to what they believe in. All the best, Len

As I've said before, I've never met Rob Marriot, but know him and people like him have heavily influenced my taste - So you have them to thank! I don't know of Ady Harley or Glyn Reardon - I thought I knew of most influentual people on the scene, are these well known or 'Under The Radar' 'heros'? All the best, Len P.s - Ref your 'Messy' line - I like Rob Marriot and don't even know him?!!!

Yes, I don't want this to be a 'back slapping' exercise, It’s just that I and others weren’t there to see, for instance, my example Adam when he was breaking new ground, and it’s nice for us to hear from people who were there. All the best, Len
