Yes you could be right Chalky ,I know Colin Curtis covered for Richard once while he was holiday bound ,thanks

The above is a Wigan time line I did recently after speaking to various people including John Vincent .There may be more DJ’s that only played a few times or once ,like Levine ,Arthur Fenn and Simon Soussan who only DJ’d once .This timeline is for the main room only .Feel free to add more info ,cheers Eddie

I wonder why they changed to the green sleeves ? Cheers Eddie

With Paul Riser at Hitsville USA …

I think it looks awful , really glad I went before this makeover with Rob Moss ,Paul Riser ,Dennis Coffey ,and Ed Wolfrum .Unbelievable really .....

Thanks Mick ,I didn’t realise that .Cheers Eddie

I think the same John ,a similar example is the UK release of Little Jerry Williams - Baby You’re My Everything on Cameo Parkway which stops at the end ,where as the USA Calla release fades at the end .Cheers Eddie

Here it is ,I believe this was the first version played on the scene if the early photo of Russ ,Richard and Kev Roberts is anything to go by with one of them holding the album .Cheers Eddie

Yes it is

Might be worth asking Paul Mooney ,or maybe Garry Cape .Hope you are keeping well ,regards Eddie

Yes it’s a re recording

It’s the Gloria Barnes LP version

Well done Mike ,for all the effort you put in to make SS what it is ,and the contributors for the incredible information added over 25 years ....

Yes I got “ This Old Heart Of Mine “ and “ Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart “ from Karaoke CDs

I think a lot of this material had been lifted from various sources .

Yes it was amazing really that two years earlier everything seemed to be great ,and a year or so after this playlist Richard had his fantastic playlists along with Gary Rushbrooke etc

Here’s a playlist from New Soultime originally ,shows where Trade Martin fitted in amongst a very mixed bag of great and not so great sounds in 1978

I think that’s Dave McCadden or Siz writing in Soul Time / New Soul Time .Trade Martin was definitely played around 77/78 at Wigan and bootlegged ,probably too soon .Same time frame as Gary Haines ,Burning Bush etc .Remember The Shirelles cut it as well ,though unissued at the time until Ace Records unreleased it with the different title of “ You Could Be My Remedy “

An unfortunate typo on this record ......

Think Dave Withers must have bought Richard Searlings copy ,as he used to play it in the early days of Stafford ,before the Guy / Keb era .

I believe this is pretty rare ,a stock copy of Lou Edwards .I had a copy in the 70’s before selling to Richard Searling .

The flip of Bobby Kline has loads of legs in it still ,and arguably the better side .

Interesting that the version of “ Goddess Of Love “ on the LP is different to the Ric - Tic 45 ,no strings ...
