Boot?
Don't Wheelsville releases have "Sheldon" stamped in the dead wax? Dave

Rita & The Tiaras - Gone With The Wind "official Re-Issue"?
The Kent re-issue blows all the other versions out of the water, even the original. The destiny release from the 80's always sounded awful, no fidelity whatsoever. Dave

What Are You Spinning At Home ?
You're welcome Peter. I've had that Dynamic Superiors track for years and never tire of playing it. I also love the instrumental flip to "Beginning of my life" and as for that Sam Dees LP, not a bad track on it, but "good guys" is pretty special to my ears. Take care, Dave

Ebay Postage From Us Issue
Have to agree Chris. I've decided to pay up and put it down to experience. I've also decided to stop viewing listings on my smartphone where the fine print is even harder to see. Cheers, Dave

Help Missing Parcel
I had a similar experience with a car part I ordered online. Waited 7 days and it never turned up. I was only made aware of this because I contacted the seller to query my parcel's whereabouts. Seller told me that UK mail tried to deliver the parcel on two consecutive days without success as I wasn't in. I know for a fact that I was in etc, etc. Said they left a card but they didn't etc, etc. Phoned seller to ask what they were gonna do about the whole situation only to be told that I would have to pay postage to get it sent out again, they even hinted that I may have to pay the return postage when UK mail couldn't deliver first time round... What a shower of fu##ing jokers all round to be honest. Gave it a week and was completely ignored so I applied for a refund on my Visa credit card which I'd used for the transaction. I got a full refund 2 days later. Dave

Cheers Paul. I did a similair thing as an 'Mp3 Album" a few weeks ago of 25 Detroit tracks and quite a few of yours were in there as well ;-) As you say an impossible task to include so few, looks like I'll be starting volume 2 soon. Cheers Dave.

Dumb Question- Sound Of 45's
My Dad had an Akai amp in the late 70's with a one of those stereo mono switches. I had always wondered why my 60's soul 45's sounded distorted on the high notes but carried on ignorant nonetheless for ages, well I was still a teenager. Then one day I was playing Diane Lewis "I thank you kindly on my head phones and it sounded bloody awful. For some unknown reason I pushed the mono button on the amp and the record sounded perfect! I always make sure that I play mono records in mono ever since. Dave

500 Label Scans / 100% Originals
Great work Dave. I feel that it's just as important preserving the labels as it is the music. Keep it up. Dave

So Out Of Tune You Can't Get Past It
Chris Jones is my nomination or rather the guitar playing during the intro: Thankfully it was in tune by the time Frank Hutton/Hutson was recorded Dave

Wanted: The Impressions "inner City Blues" (Curtom) Issue
I stand to be corrected but it took me a year to track down my copy. Not expensive, just tricky to track down. Good luck with it, it's an exceptional 45. Dave
