in fairness, yes its inferior, but its a better Jackie Wilson impersonation than you'd get out of most singers.

Production is awesome on that, esp for a smallish label.

thats the one Kev. Happy Xmas to you and yours Kev.

am I right in saying these used to be the Ethics? or was that another salsoul group

this is THE track by them for me.

Think it's an overhang from dance dj culture. It never seemed to be around in the 80' s to the same extent, pre the impact of house.

But harsh, IMHO. You get piss heads everywhere.

Proper good that. Love it

Think he makes some very valid points and you shouldn't be put of with the terminology. Though, I too, can't tolerate anyone who calls refers to records as..... Can't say it. 🤯😤.

I wonder how many would be truly passionate about soul if they didn't collect? Maybe the passion is for collecting records rather than music in many cases.

I'd say Northern soul on original labels are relatively cheap compared to the 70"s values.

cheers dude, daddy's Favourite, have it on a white somewhere

No it was later than than that, but I am a big Victor simoneli fan so thanks for reminding me of his genius, early nineties he was the man

Yeah, cause it is. Cheers pal. Need to do some diggin to find that house thing now. Have in a crate somewhere.n

What the break stolen from people? It was used on a house tune that was massive in the late 90' s bugging me. 🤯

it would only be ruined if you played it on a sandpaper slipmat.

Couple of old digs, come to mind. First would be Vinyl exchange, Camden town around 1987. The basement was full of singles, in the region of 10k most without sleeves, many 10-50p. Loads of Motown, tune up british x2, one way out British, nothing to good good for my baby, British, ECT. Bought loads of imports blind lots of c and w, a couple of bits that later turned out to be interesting. Good education for me.

Don't begrudge anyone doing it. Each to there own, but it's not an element, in collecting thats ever appealed to me, or the zest for the unheard, that's drivin the scene for so many years.

If I was buying one I'd want the later personally.

Suprised, that french cat looks a right dog, cant believe he was girl eye candy in the 6ts.

In long term context I paid, £75ish of Anglo, around 2001/2002.

Mr Manship is a internationally renowned record dealer with staff Mike. I just think it's either disingenuous or a genuine cock up, to advertise an record, I assume as unreleased? For sale, that is actually a known release on a major label. Either way if I was in his position I'd think it might dent my credibility somewhat. Maybe that's a little extreme, and my language was a little colourful. I'm sure in reality John won't be worried he's amassed buyer confidence in droves through his reputation as an honest dear over he years. However, as said, I would have some basic research would have revealed the identity and that would have certainly made an impact on how the recording was advertised.

Really popular at local soul nights.

doesn't do his credibility any good, IMHO. It is a fairly easy mistake to make, but then I'm not making a fortune/ living out of flogging records. If I was, I'd find the time to check if an acetate was truly unreleased or not, otherwise I'd think of myself as a skanking bastard.
