  1. I thought it was 4 total
  2. Take a fukin tin helmet with you mate
  3. Still have some tapes that Rob had done for me, I must look them out. When you look back you have to say how much ahead he was, how much vision, and when he used to DJ how many dance floors he cleared and to me is seen as a result because you know in a few years time those people will catch up with you and your prophesy
  4. A couple of lesser known early Wigan spins Gary Dean You can say and The Jewels Opportunity
  5. Gilly commented on harpo1's gallery image in 1970s Soul

    Having spoken to E Hollman in the 80s I understood him to no longer be with us, Eddie said "he was a hard man" I said " you mean he would fight anyone" "no came the reply he would fight everyone"

    Yes Martin, not a lot left to see at D Town but you must do it, if your on Grand River you can/could see where the Thelma studio has been capped off with concrete. whish I could help more but its a very changed place even from my days of visiting go for it and good luck
  11. Great bit of factual words put together about not only a very talented man but a beautiful man whose heart was as big as they come. Its a shame that more humans born into this world hadn't got the qualities this great man possessed. Any one who listened, danced or sang along to those tunes he created have been blessed from above as where he sits right now along side other great musicians. You gave me my life as you did to so many soul fans around the world, (how good is that) Well done Eddie its a great read. Richard I bow before you, thanks
  12. A day of smiling faces, friends of old, new friends for the future,everyone having a ball and do you know the music weren't bad either,me and Nicola loved it Thank-you so much.
  13. Can anyone help me locate a set of digital weighing platform scales on the cheap. Light enough to lift into the back of a small sized van but with a min weighing capacity of 100 Kg and mains/battery function. Its main usage is for weighing plumbers scrap copper pipe on building sites and domestic property. Thanks Gilly Northants (orig from Derby/Burton) please PM myself

    How so sad,bless ya
  15. What I liked about Bob was that he interviewed the real and everyday person involved in the music business that never quite made the big time,and for those people who have a deep interest in the music we love he did us proud,so thanks for that Bob.On a little more personal note I have never met Bob but used to message him about things,a few years ago I asked him a real bizzar question with good intent and thought he will never answer this crazy request but he did,he took time out for me over nothing I guess.Only hope now with utter respect for the loss that someone will not replace Bob (that will be impossible) but can continue the legacy that this great man started. Be at peace now Bob no dought your already looking out for those singers who went to heaven before yourself sir.
  16. My Indian work mate dropped something on his foot finger
  17. Its one less than my mate has having had a big row with a big iron bar,nine pints please barman
  18. Rockmasters Raining Teardrops I think the whole song is mental but from 1:28 sec he kicks off big time until the end singing mainly on the up I think hes gone mental I know I do when I hear it.Find its a great way to get in the mood for a days work
  19. The Dynamics on Dyna at the end of the song the guy sings "just ask the lonely " twice but on the second time( as a lot of black singers do) pronounces the word "ask" as "axe" I fuckin love-it
  20. One night at a Coalville nighter many years ago and being less than normal I chomped on a Golden World 45 (cant remember which one) thus cutting my mouth I also used to break pint glasses on my head (not at nighters) at some stage in life I tried to grow up a little,all good fun
  21. How so heart breaking always loved his songs and always hoped he would make it to the uk,now having seen the clip Ady has put up here just see what we have missed how good is that footage with tears in my eyes well "That's What You Do To Me" Glad your music has been part of my life Thankyou Sir
