Emidisc Origin
great label EMI-DISC every top record from 1973 to 1979 was issued on it-double siders as well There was a standing joke in Mansfield that a certain Nottingham DJ (still around) had that many EMI's that he couldn't actually pick his record box up anymore I know the hand writing on the one for sale, I've still got a copy of "Hot line"/"Elusive" from Cleethorpes around the same time as this, same hand writting. Then 4 track EMI's started to appear, Still have Billy Woods, Candi Staton, Earnest Mosley & Carol Woods on one which I kept (Ended up with originals of all of them !) Which I suspect may have been done off the decks at Wigan, by a rouge DJ who was later sacked ! alot of legit EMIs had the titles done on a type-writer, seen hundreds of Pop titles on my travels over the years. But I've a confession to make --I LOVE THE SMELL OF THEM Rob

John these are both issued both in the US and UK on the same labels, UK generally being the hardest, could account for a price difference ? Rob

Who Goes? You Decide
So my question is....how much influence should the paying punter have on the music policy? Can of worms my friend-- but if you have a regular event some people come to hear the records that are BIG there at the Hollingwood Hotel a few years back I always tried to squeeze in one or two newer sounds into my last set and then rotate them up the play list from my earlier spot, but the most Instant record in that club was Drizabone "Presure" which was played as a brand new release there. trouble is as a DJ you are seen as predictable at your own venue, but the punters HAVE to leave happy so they will come back next month. No real answer to it Rob
