  1. Not my cuppa tea. Cant sing a note. DIRGE. BUT love Frankie Crockers description above.
  2. Never ceases to amaze me how our scene sprung up in pockets around the UK. Reading the piece about Richard Selwood from Gloucester it reminded me of the Bedford scene back in the 70,s. The older guys Stick, Dave Smith, Jim Thomas etc had a reputation and I always believed that they had more than a shout in the closing of VaVas. Then us Bedford lot Paul Shirley,Tony Hirst, Andy Felts, Hammy, Steve Cooper, Lloyd Walk, Tony Warot etc all kind of emerged at the same time. Decent collections, record hunters and good dancers. We organised regular soul nights at Kempston Rovers, Addison Centre and others I cant recall. Travelled around the country organised buses to WC,Yate etc. Good times. Just weird how one area can have this where as another town within striking distance did not have the same desire. Say Luton in Bedfords case. Not forgetting the stalwarts from St Neots like Barry ( De-To), Dave Fleming, Tiny, Kev Sandiford. Plus Mick Smith and the Hitchen/Letchworth lot. Anyone from Bedford recall Thursday evening in The Pilgrims before the weekend? One night I remember was with Winnie and trying to do a runner from an Indian. Winnie got out but threw chairs over blocking the others behind him. Naughty naughty!! Just wondered what other areas had a scene but up the road did,nt?
  3. I noticed the Johhny Hendley went for over £700. Looked very similar.
  4. Just had a look at popsike as well. Bloody WDJ like london cabs! Oh well. Still think I have seen far more issues over time. Up till today that is!! Lol!
  5. I think the demo is rarer. Seem loads of issues but only my demo and Hammies back in the 70,s. Just my view. Comparable costings as far as I recall.
  6. Yes released on both. Had issue upgraded to a demo. BUT an 8 track wow!
  7. Please pass on my sincere thoughts. Did,nt know him but felt I did.
  8. No sadly forced to miss. Mate Ged was sulking after going to watch Stockport County get relegated and Julian B was away. So Billy no mates and cos of my operation last Aug not yet fully mobile and driving is an arse. Good set sad I missed it. My sort of stuff.
  9. Really peed off I could not make it. Ged was sulking after County got relegated, Julian B was away and I am not yet fit enough to drive that far. Top stuff apart from G Lemons which is dreadful IMO.
  10. Morning Guys being an ex Bedford soul man I knew Chantel along with Dave and Ann Chase back in the 70,s. Told Andy I would be there BUT my own health recovery is a bit of a downer. Looking forward to seeing everyone.Along with my sister,brother and close friends. Good work Andy and Hammie. Steve Foran
  11. Was thinking of Alan yesterday as his beloved City won. Top man!
  12. Just like to add my sincere thoughts. Any who know me know how much I adore the tune. Fantastic footage. Big lump in the throat. RIP Mel.
  13. Barry I think I have seen it all now!
  14. Has Al Dlory Right on had a mention? Always thought John Vincent had cornered the market in instrumentals.
  15. Personally would prefer a Palmer copy.
  16. Levines stuff was played at WC. Clearly recall LJ Johnson, Barbera Pennington etc. Exciters from memory.
  17. Thats good of you to say so. I always enjoy a night out love to see people dancing and singing along. Good night and great company. Even Rod Shard was there.
  18. I must say that I love Bobby Thurston Just ask me or Will Collins Anything I can do as much as say Mel Britt,Yvonne Baker etc. RS used to introduce real quality into his playlist from all genres/years in the latter days of WC. I STILL get a buzz when I go somewhere and hear something I dont know. I am not really keen on the RnB stuff nor some crossover. Crossover seems to fit into a tag where it aint new/mordern or good 60,s. I have just been given a CD from USA made late last year with various covers plus one or two new things. Outstanding in my view. On thread I feel that anything goes if it is good enough. BUT like Pete Smith we all have our favourites.
  19. 2 more Teddy Be Sure Maze The look in your eyes.
  20. Well John Manship turned up that batch of Shrine stuff just recently so I guess that there may well be more Billy Woods lurking.
  21. Stevie Wonder If you really loved me Areatha Until you come back to me. ( check out Youtube her and Stevie singing it WOW) Jackie Wilson Sweetest Feeling Harold Melvin Love I lost Isleys Harvest for the world AND Doobies Bros What a fool believes ( IF YOU CAN ACCEPT IT GUYS)
