Thanks Ady, I had no idea that Kent 002 came out on yellow vinyl, I obviously didn't get out and buy it quick enough. They were great LPs, by the time they reached Kent 006, I placed a 'Standing Order' at my local record shop - 'Sounds Around' in Kidderminster.

Hi all, I was an avid buyer of Kent LPs in the 1980s and have about 80 of them. I was playing through some them over the weekend and wondered if anyone could answer the following questions? How many of the first LP 'For Dancers Only' were pressed on red vinyl? How many of 'KENT 50' were pressed on purple vinyl and came with the poster? I won't ask which ones are considered to be the best, because that's probably been asked a hundred times before. Thanks in advance, Andy

Stylus included, they are belt driven, but that is to be expected I suppose. I think I'm correct in saying that Technics Direct Drive SL 1210 turntables go from Zero to 45rpm in half a revolution, as do most other DD turntables I guess. When it comes to belt driven turntables, I assume that it takes a little longer. Of course, the Technics, being in a different league in build quality, will also sound far superior - but for £65, I'm happy to let my kids play around with them, though not in conjunction with my Northern Soul records...

Thanks for the link, I've just bought one. Not bad for £65

I'm beginning to wish I hadn't started this, I never imagined for one moment that it would turn into an opportunity for people to have a go at Russ Winstanley.

Blimey, he sold one! Come on guys - Which one of you was it?

Wear it with pride, knowing that you were there.... to the bitter end. https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Casino-Gaming-Patch-Wigan-Casino-13-Soulful-Years-/270645778990?pt=UK_Collectables_Badges_Patches_MJ&hash=item3f03beda2e The last four years were a total blur to me though........

"If you're clearly drunk and have a request, come behind the decks with your foaming pint and stand over my record box while I dig it out for you" I guess most DJs have experienced this scenario

Clearly someone agrees with you - it's now sold.

I buy far more records than I ever sell, I don't expect sellers to clean records before they sell them - A dusty/dirty record can still be considered mint, only permanent marks or damage affects the condition of a record. All my records get cleaned (carefully) as soon as I get them - It's part of the experience, I enjoy it!

This appeared on the letters page of the NME in November 1992. Not sure why I've kept it all these years, somehow I do find it amusing. 'Terpsichorean' = A facetious description, refering to the art of dancing (Just looked it up)

Thanks for the scans and the info regarding Roscoe Shelton & Chuck Carter. For me, the best records played that night have to be 'First Time' & 'Time Will Change' - Brilliant stuff.
