Yes brill well done to all concerned

In parts sounds a little like the gallop

Very sad indeed, sent each other insulting txts as you do only last week. Known Tony a very long time loved him and loved his humour Nicola and I will miss him very much. Catch up with you one day

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

Lets not forget Dave, top-man

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

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.

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

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.

Its rather good isn't it.Thanks

My Indian work mate dropped something on his foot finger

Its one less than my mate has having had a big row with a big iron bar,nine pints please barman

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

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

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

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

Yes got this on video?dvd of the great woman herself doing it

Yes and that bloke called "popcorn" also wrote my name on the label

Its the only issue ive ever seen but there are more knowledgeable people than myself,ive seen several demos and I have to say with the QOF issue being just like the Susie Thompson Paper Tigers visually the demo does look a lot better.As for the demand on that song maybe not anymore I cant think of that many collectors these days (uk) and the ones I know have pretty much everything going if not a QOF issue

It came from one of the London boys but cant remember who,just noticed the guy that bought it from me my dear friend Mick Holdsworth

Hi if yours is the copy with return to BBC library stamped on it in purple in then that's my old 45 maybe

What price would a Queen of Fools ISSUE command uk

Check this one out,Freddie Butler Im not afraid Samo around 2m40sec listen to the strings drop down 3 notes after he sings not afraid,its just so sweet
