  4. Below is a piece written by Phil Aspinall's wife Bernie , giving details of the last week of Phil's life , his plans ,and reading it makes me realise even more so than before ,what a special and unique man Phil was .It also outlines Phil's wishes after his death , I'm sure everyone will understand what he wanted to happen .Please feel free to share with anyone who knew and loved Phil ,of which there are far more than I know personally x Bernie Aspinall Dear soul mates, family, friends, work colleagues and neighbours. I want to say thank you for a the messages of condolence. The heartfelt feelings of disbelief and loss. we feel them all. my wonderful superman soul mate and husband of 34 years, father to Alex has left all to sudden leaving a massive gap in our lives and the dance floor. He made me feel very special from the word go, couldn't believe my luck. we have a daughter Alex who is a caring, intelligent wonderful person, with eclectic taste in music and a love of life with friends world wide. My heart is wretched at the purpose of my writing. Phill was many things father and mentor, soulmate and other half of me. A passionate cyclist, runner, gardener, scooter lover, dancer and music lover. Please know that in his last week Phill had enjoyed life to the full. He had planned, set off and camped over night at Cadar Idris , completed a six hour bike ride (for fun). Returning to the camp site at dusk, leaving a stunned farmer behind on his quad bike who complained that "I couldn't catch you man at 33mph." He had also perfected his man cave Shed in the garden. On Friday we had been out for a meal and I know he was looking forward to Saturday night at the Barn. Phill loved many venues, Soul underground, Dab of soul, Life line, Freestylin etc. After taking early retirement we were able to go out again as a couple and I am so grateful we did this. He cherry picked venues for me and we had a brilliant night at Wilton and Dab of soul and danced all night. At Steve and Rowena Morgans evening doo. We were probably the only couple with a talc and a towel! There was no holding him back. Great memories. Now the difficult part of the message. We had talked about wishes, though you think you will never have to act that part out. phill never wanted to have a funeral of any description. This was something his father did as well, so family fully get this and understand he could never do with fuss, attention, pomp. I know this will be very difficult for people to accept as they want to pay their respects but please believe this was his wish. He would rather have a full dance floor than a full church. This thought gave me goose pimples and feel it was sent from Phill. At some stage in the future with the help of friends, it would be fitting to have soul night in his memory. We could have a book of memories for anyone wanting to record thoughts, feelings and reminiscences. Please bare with us Thank you Bernie, Alex and family. Some where out there, there's a soul haven and Phill is dancing, cycling and running to his hearts content. We will all miss him so very much. x

  11. One of the most famous incidents must be the story of Dave McCadden[ RIP ] loaning Richard Searling's then one off copy of The Jades -I'm where it's at , to photo copy the label " Nite Life " for his new fanzine of the same name .He took it ,along with a pile of pressings to a chip shop , before heading for the bus home .He left the records in the chippy by mistake , and on realising his mistake , returned to the shop where the owner had put the records on top of a hot plate for " safety " .Guess which record was on the bottom , yes The Jades ,which with the heat wasn't broken ,but had grown to twice it's size !! I would have hated to be in his shoes ,explaining to Searling what had happened ....
  12. A fantastic article , very informative and interesting .Sure we all gained much knowledge from these fantastic albums and eyes catching sleeve art work ,well done ...
  13. I first heard "" Game Players "when Richard spun it off the LP during the early session at Wigan. J Blackfoot was Stafford, eh Dave....
  14. I heard The Moments first ,off the Sharp LP ,I know Colin played it at The Mecca too.Not sure if it ever made a 45? Richard was also playing "Somehow you make me feel " and "Time will tell " off The Eddie Holman LP .This could be a night was played off the 12" and LP to begin with ,with the great long intro.....
  15. I love stories like this....
  16. Yes readily available as I recall Peter. If you knew where to buy the new releases and were quick off the mark then it paid dividends. Pep and John Manship plus Soul Bowl were good for the new releases, and I found Graham Warr was excellent in the 70's.....
