tony's blackburn, soultown days- michigan mood, george freeman- down and out 100 club- butch's old teen turbans cu- fred and the turbines- bernadine keele- dough Banks- kept on Dancing Bradford- Queeens hall- kel osbourne- quicksand that'll do for starters. great thread idea.

seen it a couple of times in the last 12 mths, a vg+ was around £125 i thnk on here, I've also seen a minter go for more, arounf 150- 175, in these times of need I'd think a decent copy should be around £150 imho.

listened in last night great show, very informative.

thats obscene, ramsey lewis is a bleeding fiver, even the constelations is attainable ( though realy overpriced) there no excuse for it and we've all got tales about name DJ's, you can be a collector and not dj but you cant be a dj and not collect! thats all there is to it.

not heard of that one, something keeps calling me back was played at the wheel/ torch.

will certainly try to listen to this over tea tonight

on reflection yep that a pretty shite generalisation by me, I think I probably had classic ' wigan big productions' in my head when I said that, and too be honest I cant see records of that type doing it with a black audience or featuring to highly in the r and b charts either. However much of what was played at say the wheel, cats or torch I could see cutting it with young black urbanites, out to dance, in mid sixties USA.

If we take as a given that northern is traditionaly about motown copiests, then a lot of what we consider Northern wouldnt of been played by the urban black communities, it was music made by black people for a general pop audience and may well have been popular on the college circuit, rather than some seedy Harlem niterie where the real jive cats were at.

been listening to john lee hookers 'lets spend the night together' blows the stones for me.

out of shame you mean, LOL.

someone told me a guy was playing this at a scooter weekender covered up and it was off the pressing!!!!!!! er derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, lol.

I remember Rod shard told me he left a touch of Venus- fontana! on the tube in london years ago.

when we used to do the arms it had a metal fire escape, I dropped my box from the top and watched them slowly (it seemed to take an eternity) bounce down two flights and land at the bottom, strangly the only damage was a busted hinge on the box. I also dropped Don Gardner- boogaloo, on the celler floor and broke a piece of the rim, knackered it, its just fit for the wall now.

thought he did, seem to remember him playing it on searlings JFM show.

Les hare had one last year for 25, they never seemed to be around in vast quanitiies at the time, wonder how many were pressed? wasnt the pressing something to do with levine?

to go back to the poster original piont, he probably did, there are certainly many modern fans out there still buying and searching for contemporary independant releases like the ones Sam played in the later days of the cassino.

you meyther monger you!

10 or 15 years ago I thought sam was awful, I'd seen him clear the floor so many times with things that just didnt work on the dancefloor for me and many others. I've seen him play 3 times this year and jus tthink he's amazing now, a consumate proffesional who always delivers in playing quality biggies whilst evenhandardly deliving a sublime mix of new spins, quality oldies, 60's 70's et all. All heil Sam he da man!

thanks I'll be taking a dekko of this

sounds like it could have been then

its not really encouraging when so many positive threads dont get a sniff and everyone's so ready with the ones they dont like, honestly there's none mentioned so far that I hate as much as hearing anything from the top 100 again.

I'm with you on the bricklayers but Hayes Cotton Come on youth!
