Do you have a favourite artist(s)?; and then some...........
Mad Lads for me fantastic double sided "Did my baby call/Let me repair your heart " Came in a soul pack from Contempo/Blues and Soul 10 for a pound probably 1973, Continued buying anything I could by them over the next few years. It's still a cheap record to buy today.

my NS Top 10 songwriters of all time (in order).
Bacharach and David would be an obvious choice. Bert Berns not so obvious but a favourite of mine. Also Deadric Malone for his Duke input......if he did indeed compose the numerous compositions in his name. Was it Giant and Baum who did a lot of the big top composing

Ebay flooded with boots. They have the wrong writer credits.

James brown
Never seen a red mojo. Only mojo demos I've ever seen have the very small not for sale stickers with red writing on them I've had lots of those and nearly all of the stickers have fallen off. James brown records on parlaphone are red,and of course the polydor releases were all red. Without checking I think the only James brown release on mojo was " Hey America /Brother Rap"

Sly and the Family Stone
I never heard it until it came out on the direction label a bit later. Got a surprise when I eventually got the Columbia version how different the two mixes are.

First Major Imported NS 45.
I had no idea blues and soul were doing 10 records for a £1 in 2016. Darrell Banks was quite a bargain! Is this for real?
