Fantasy - I'll Call You Every Morning - RG & Curia - VG+ £1200 - Signed by Joel Ramirez Jr. The vinyl has some fine hair lines & marks, which do not affect the sound reproduction in any way, shape or form, this is a beautifully playing copy of an extremely in-demand record. Arguably the biggest record in the UK, huge dance floor reactions for the few DJ's lucky enough to own this anthem. This is an extremely reluctant sale. PM to reserve or for any Q's. No trades or offers please. No holds & payment must be received within 24 hours. PayPal F&F or Bank Transfer only. Postage extra, signed for only. Thank you for looking, Russ

Russ Vickers commented on Raremusicdirect's calendar event in Alldayers
Hi Eric, whilst I don't want to speak on Kev's (RareMusicDirect) behalf, I can assure you your opinion didn't offend him or anyone else, positive contributions & feed back is always appreciated & acted upon were appropriate by these guys. Happy to report that the event, as hoped, spoke for itself, numbers were healthy, the DJ's & music policy worked & was appreciated, judging by dance floor reaction & discussions in dark corners about lesser knowns & secret sounds. The craic was great too, lots of familiar faces from the scene, along with others & was pleased to see some great deals being brokered for some great records. Good luck digging & hope to see you at the next event. -

Russ Vickers commented on Raremusicdirect's calendar event in Alldayers
I think that the event will speak for itself on Saturday. The promoters have definitely put together an event worthy of your attendance & a lot of thought, time, money & passion have gone into putting this event together for your enjoyment. I know some of the DJ's booked to entertain you personally & I have the utmost respect for them, they have the sounds, integrity & the professionalism to keep the dance floor moving & the record hounds guessing & entertained. I am personally really looking forward to the DJ's that I have not heard before, they all have their own following & I anticipate great reactions to their sets. The events put forward as the leaders of the current Rare Soul Scene are more than worthy of the accolade, I have personally attended most & I am in total agreement. This is a new event, ploughing its own furrow, it will live & die on its own terms on Saturday, but regardless of the outcome, the amount of sheer hard graft that has been put into putting this event on & the promotion of the event has been phenomenal. I really look forward to seeing you all on Saturday, the uptake of tickets is very encouraging & I'm sure you will be impressed with both the fantastic venue & the mix of soul music on offer, the wonderful soulful people that support these kind of events are really what it is all about, you will make the event the success that it truly deserves to be....so get behind it & make it yours. See you at the weekend.... -

Thank you so much for all the research you have done Tim, its very much appreciated & thank you for sharing it all with us, there should be a proper digital archive some where, where all of this information & photographs can be stored & shared for research & reference. Thank you & look forward to the further instalments, as a slight aside, I have the booklet that you produced about Robbie Lawson, would it be worth posting that up as well, if it hasn't already been digitally re produced already ? Kind regards Russ -
