Gilly

A long and standing joke with Colin Law, sold him an issue at Wigan Casino

If that's me you are referring to Derek then I'll remind you of the songs, Lou Johnson and D Banks and did you make the car boot the other week

Lovely song Chas, and our regards back to Staley Bridge x

No I don't own one but a guy called Tony Parker orig from Northants used to have a copy

Don't know if this has been done before but I was thinking about known records but with a difference, might be the label colour (issue/demo) the type settings, the record # ok Here are two of my examples to start off and to help you understand what the fuck I'm going on about CAPITOLS, CANT DENY THAT I LOVE YOU, OMEN Green issue SWEET CHARLIE BABE, IVE GOT IT ALL, SOUL FOX Same as Charles Simmons

Yes ill have it Gilly

Jesus where the photos from I never took any when I went round and didn't bring any away with me, something I will always regret, bonus got a few 45s thou. First person to meet him in person from the UK (thanks to Richard Wylie) spent an hour or so with him. Ill tell you one thing sitting in the middle of two music gurus I was so lucky Bless them both RIP

RAY Agee IM LOSING AGAIN

What great times so many have enjoyed over the years, how fantastic to of seen those live artists perform on that stage and if it not for that we may never of had that pleasure, not just to see and hear them sing but a chance to meet them ask them questions, get an autograph. It doesn't just stop there either, for the artists them selves and with respect didn't make them rich but it did realise a dream in that what they did back in the day be it decades later now brought their lives full circle. I know its not a competition but I can be proud to say ive never missed an event including the two they had in the first year, the only other person to match that is Roger Banks and they must be a few more. Ive DJ a couple of times, helped with security and been involved with some of the Artists, Little Ann being close to my heart was a special time in my life. Maybe Ady feels he has got as far as he can go but one thing for sure he has done a fantastic job over the years and we thank him so very much. So with God willing and a deposit paid I will see you all at week-ender Gilly

Rob has always been there seemingly, a great fellow always has time for you record prices cheap, a dam fine fellow indeed, that is apart from his driving skills but I'm ok got me own transport. Carry on forever ROBERT

Just to back up the original post, I remember there being imports at fair grounds, one that springs to mind is Carlena Weaver Jealousy. I remember getting one of those and when you tell people today about that I get the feeling they don't believe you, but its a fact

That didn't take long you two grrrrrr

I want one also you bugger, ill let you go first as its your advert love ya both x

Ive got and had a Billboard international 1969 edition, been using it for years, it has pages of record label addresses, owners co owners phone # what other labels they owned. Then there is producers, distributers one stops. Tape whole sellers, pressing plants, label printers mothers disc makers and so on

Thanks for that so that's about how long ive had them. The tape has BBC written on it

When did Sanctuary go rooting

Well the two songs I have are on a tape and both have studio talking, Gino and John Shroeder sorry about the spelling

Ive had this song some 23 or more years, I also have his version of "Open the door to your heart, and that's good too

Yes, I like it its been worth the wait and thanks for putting it up. Next question have you anything else you want to share

OK mate I will look forward to it, if your anything like me when it comes to technology IT WILL remain unknown

It may remain unknown if we don't get to hear it,or have I missed something

For me I don't think it hurts to have them signed on the label, I had the J. Mae, Steve Mancha (Clyde Wilson) and I managed to get Edwin Starr to sign under his birth name, though he wasn't too happy about that.

That's a correct signature, get Brian Pinches to scan his Larry Wright Sweet sweet kisses for you, its my old copy that Popcorn sent me. I have a load of his signatures here on various things like xmas cards promo items, personal letters too

And what ones that Matt ?

Wouldn't mind being 2 records behind yourself. My old copy of the Ravins lives with an old mate who I may see this week, he was on about selling it a while ago, I will see what the latest is on his status
