I always liked my high waisted sandy brown Karmen Ghia cords with the big side pockets half way down each side , looked great with a bowling shirt or vest . Best ,Eddie

Dave , you must have road tested virtually every fashion style since the 70's ,wouldn't you agree ?!! Best ,Eddie

Hello John , glad you like Oh ,lord , just got " Doorstep to sorrow " on a Jap Mainstream CD ,excellent , my says Rudolph Randolph tho ' ? Best Wishes ,Eddie

Freddie recorded the classic Deep Soul album " Friend " for Mankind records in the early 70's , essential for Deep Soul collectors .One of his most famous records was " She's all I got " a country tinged ballad , released on this side of the pond on MOJO records .Most of his records are in a Deep Soul vein , " I have a dream " on UK President is another goodie , as is his version of Big Maybelle's " Oh Lord , what are you doing to me " .Hope this helps ,Best ,Eddie

Chris Bartley Sweetest thing this side of heaven LP is brilliant Van McCoy magic , comparable to The Spellbinders in style and consistency , great picture on the front with Chris holding hands with Sandi Sheldon ,bought this LP off Neil Rushton at Wigan for £3 .Best ,Eddie

Yes it was originally on a Japanese Goldwax CD , think it's on a green / white demo that Chris King put out as well .Best ,Eddie

How about Glass House " I don't see me in your eyes anymore " , the Ty Hunter release goes for £50 - £75 , this is exactly the same recording , there's one on Gemm now for $16 , flip of Thanks I needed that , on Invictus .This is a great crossover style dancer similar to Bobby Reed on Bell .Best ,Eddie

Freddie Hughes " Send my baby back " album on Wand is a brilliant set .Best ,Eddie

Which Dee Dee album ? they are both great !! Best ,Eddie

One of the greatest records ever , brilliant strings as well .Best ,Eddie

Thanks folks I'm sorted now ,cheers ,Eddie

Has anyone on here got Guy Hennigan's mobile or landline no ? PM me please , Many thanks ,Eddie

Hello Gray , yes this CD is available now ,as is the equally great " Can't be satisfied " CD , as mentioned by Sebastian , I got mine from play.com on Saturday .Best ,Eddie

Big thanks to the good folk at Ace / Kent for the new CD compiling material from Larry Banks , the famed New York arranger , obviously the big selling point will be the inclusion of the brilliant Milton Bennett " Whats one more lie " , but there's so much more, like the stunning big city ballads , in particular the 3 from Kenny Carter " You better get hip girl " [ a great song , transformed from a tambourine rattling Pied Piper production as recorded by Freddy Butler , into an awsome big voiced beater , " I can't stop laughing " which sounds like it was cut at the same session as " Showdown " , and lastly " Lights out " a wonderful version of the Zerban Hicks classic ender .Also great is the future Northern classic , " My life is no better " by The Dynamics , the fantastic beat ballad " Living in the land of heartache " by The Cavaliers , which is very Kenny Carter in style , the great stripped down outtake of Jaibi's " You got me " plus the flip side of that particular ' 45 " What good am I " .Highly recommended , Dave Godin would have been very proud .Best ,Eddie

I love this too Rich , though I actually bought it by mistake at Wigan thinking it was The Prophets " I got the fever " !!, great slow flip as well " Leaving me " .Best ,Eddie

I remember reading in an old copy of Hot buttered soul magazine , that a lot of the red re - issues were imported to Holland etc , because of the following for the more down tempo flip .Best ,Eddie

Doesn't seem 3 years since Dave died , first met him in 1974 when he was working for Black Music , spent the day in London with him , took me and a few mates to the Black music offices , Black Wax record shop and Blues and Soul record shop .Next time I corresponded with him was when he did an imaginary tape for Mojo magazine during the 90's featuring some his all time Deep Soul faves .I cheekily wrote to him and asked if he could actually record the tape for me , which he did by return of post , what a great guy !! He was the main man in the early days with his tips on old Soul and new releases , doubt if we will ever see his like again .Best ,Eddie

Yes ,I bought one off the bowl , think it was £6 ? Best ,Eddie

I've just ordered this CD Paul , so can't wait to hear it , these CD series are essential purchases eh ? Best ,Eddie

Her latest single " Queen of starting over " is fantastic IMHO , and it was cut at Muscle Shoals , great horn laden backing as well .Best ,Eddie

Except that Rob would probably make a better football manager !! Best ,Eddie
