big difference between buying in the 8ts compared to now was there were no guides or pop sike, you used to get people flogging boots as the real deal and (less often) vise versa. finding out what was what as a young collector was tough, often the guys selling didnt have a clue either.

yep sorry, moore- somebody new- though danny monday is ironicaly tim's favorite tune!

just wondered if the danny moore would even go today if found as new discovery? still love it myself, whatever the price, but its well out of place with the current sound imho. incidentally how many DM's actually turned up? I'm thinking just a couple of hundred, highlighting just how small a market NS actually is.

its not only a male passtime, what about 'it'll never be over for me' obvious but fits the bill.

certainly is.

Does anyone who anyrthing about Hampsters that are in labour?

he said soul, lol.

national express from london to, bradford or blackburn was a regular grueller, it stopped at nelson, colne and god knows where else and took forever.

psml, i met a record dealer who specialises in freakbeat who told me a woeful tale of selling one at a record fair for a pitance years ago.

can you imagine copies of willie small being around back then? good news about the tash, couldnt imagine you without one, and anyway the're back in now and you rode through the storm. wear it with pride dave!

hiya dave, haven't managed to me yet, but I'm sure I was at this one, moved down to london in 87. top nighter, can always remember timmy mallett being on the big screen tv during the last couple of hours- we were the wide awake club! does that mean you've lopped your burns then? next you'll be telling me you've shaved your tash off!

The originals at manchester Ritz stands out for me.

was wondering that myself, christ for what was considered a bit of an oldies nighter at the time the music sounds pretty progressive by todays standards.

Its proper good this, looks far more underground and cooler than any footage I've seen of Wigan.

Just seen Buey and Carl Fortnum, should be on this me sen somewhere! Keb looking at tunes.

Arrived for a nighter in Loughbourgh one saturday in about 87, got to the town hall only to be informed the nighter was last night. Twas 11.30 by the time I got back to the station, last train back to the smoke had left and so I spent the night kipping under a bench in November with only an addidias holdall and a levi denim for company

Should be of interest to anyone with ears Ian.

the frank zappa of black music.

seem to remember some purple vinyl Okeh's or is that just my addled mind playing tricks, anyone?

strange I can off load bog standard 80's pop albums but not cheapo NS, again down to the size of the well saturated NS market

its not an idea pete, its an opinion, if the scene sticks to its current 60's obsession it will die in my honest opinion, sooner or later. if it can take the ethos of championing underground music with passion, then it has an indefinate lifespan, again, IMHO.

imho it only has a future if the definition of valid music, for the majority, can move away from its 6ts bias.

heard frankie knuckles once say its all about the sequence, and over the years that statements been born out time and time again. that certainly doesnt mean you've got your playlist down before you hit the venue. I great DJ know how every tune in his box will intergrate into the others, where their set is going, and where its been. Have to agree about Cunnie's comments on the northern scene but have to add that I'd extend them the modern scene as well.

Sorry Adey but it would have to do some serious convincijng for me after that last trailer, Brinsdale was it? FFS!

thats just ace, my new xmas fave.
