I'll do them now I'm back off my holidays, sorry mate, just forgot to write it down anywhere and kept forgetting.

They did this to me as well. So I sent a comment via their 'email us' link, got no response, then I sent another, angrier email, no response, finally as a last gesture I told them to f*ck off and shove their company up their collective arses, a few hours later I got a phone call from a representive who explained exactly why they couldn't refund my money - and yes, it's because the user was no longer registered with ebay. So much for safe secure transactions then.

Thats a Piccadilly catalogue number but I think you might have got a digit or two wrong, you sure it's a 7 after the 35?

Sorry not quite all about the soul but I did a new podcast before I went away but had loads of problems getting it up onto the site so I gave up, anyway now I've managed it, this is a ska/reggae/rocksteady podcast and I'm being honest here when I say if it's not the best one I've done, it was certainly the most enjoyable. Link is below and you have to click the triangle to get it to play (or of course you can download it for later), there's a full track list on the actual page, it's the very first one at the top of the page https://www.raresoul.co.uk/wordpress/?page_id=11

The Jam put out a cd called Extras which rounded up all their unissued tracks, they did a version of Solid Bond In Your Heart, obviously way before the Style Council version, and it's out and out northern, try and find it, the intro especially is brilliant

She did Time Will Pass You By..

I had that for sale last week or the week before and posted it up. They all laughed at it. Heres the link /index.p...c=50188&hl=

Sorry had to alter the price slightly on the Melvin Davis as it turns out I paid 78 quid for it!

My God these soundclips ought to carry a health warning!

I can't remember asking for offers on a record for ages but I'm completely stumped on what to ask for this one: J.B. TROY - LIVE ON - MUSICOR DEMO Now the condition I would grade visually as VG-. One of those records that hasn't seen a sleeve for ages. It plays with light background crackle near the start, once it gets going it plays SUPERBLY. The label is one of those with a dip towards the middle so the outer part is grubby while the inner part is clean. No big clicks, no jumps or skips. So anyway I know this is rare, I've never had one before, and the 'price guide' says 300 quid. Anyone interested in making an offer above 100 for it, if so I'll see what comes in and then sell to the best offer later on. I can supply label scan and sound clip if necessary. (enclosed) jbtroy.mp3 I also have a Melvin Davis - I Must Love You - Groovesville. Same sort of visual condition but not as strong a player - vg throughout. Looking at 85 quid on that. Fine for djing but not recommended for a home hi-fi experience as it is crackly. Finally I have a Magictones - How Can I Forget You - Wheelsville. To all intents and purposes this is mint minus and I could sell it to you as that and you probably would be happy but I know that there's a minute crack where the run off meets the label, doesn't affect play, can barely be seen, but it's there! Otherwise, the best copy of this I've ever seen. 100 quid.

That's just Mick Smith having a laugh

If it's still up, in the alternative oldies thread, I posted up a perfect quality mp3 of the entire thing

I'm not down on nothing, it's not my fault if people are stupid is it? I bought my latest (orange) one for £20 so by your thinking, I'm £100 up.

Yeah they did, but that was when the team ran out, unfortunately it was banned a few years ago and it hasn't been heard since. This is the mentality of the west midlands police - they say it could incite violence just on the chorus where it goes (clap-clap-clap-clap-THE WOLVES) the fns were singing "f*ck off west brom - The Wolves" so they banned it...except it's still allowed at west brom.

Can't understand what you don't like about it, honestly. You haven't actually said yet.

Not really, but I do like experimenting. I wouldn't recommend the dishwasher method though.

Don't think anything could beat the vocal version, one of my all time favourites and every time I hear it it takes me back to the 60's, my Dad taking me down the Wolves matches, they always used to play this before the match...thats where I first heard loads of Motown records 1967-69

Talk of the devil https://cgi.ebay.com/FUNK-BROTHERS-Ghost-In...1QQcmdZViewItem

Have used that many times, specially when I had a professional record cleaning machine, but honestly, the fairy active stuff does a better job than isopropyl alcohol

No but thanks for the idea!

But on that photo above what you can't tell is that the drum is only above 5" across and 4" deep
