Conned? For £1.50 you had a place where you could hear fantastic music ALL NIGHT, meet loads of new people, take loads of drugs and have the greatest time of your life. Well I did anyway. Priceless I reckon, if at the age of 45 I can look back 30 years and still remember it like it was yesterday. And all the time I was there, I can't remember ever complaining about the music, apart from dave Evisons oldies spot which was always terrible.

I've had one on my list this year. Think it was 600 quid.

Don't know if I've heard this record but seeing as you were going on about it I just got one off ebay. Probably be for sale next week

I come out of lurking with some sad news, Jimmy's wife has asked me to let all his friends know. Jimmy McColgan better known as Jimmy Mac sadly passed away peacefully on Thursday evening at the age of only 49. Bone cancer only diagnosed 3 weeks ago ! Funeral this coming Friday 11am at St. Georges in Ovenden, Halifax. Anyone wanting to send cards or donations to cancer research can email me for further details. alison.cvrc@talk21.com Ali (very sad) xxxxx

Agree - no tune, all out of time, awful

Nothing makes sense anymore

Mate if I wanted a Lester Tipton with no label I'd get a Grapevine one and tear it off. I honestly believe that anyone who buys a record like that is either very mad or has money to burn. Seriously, I'd pay maybe £50 tops for that.

Course it is. I wouldn't buy the above record for a quid. Spot on Matt.

No offence but I'd be embarassed to offer this for sale if it were mine apparently it's The Opals..quick, it ends in 2 hours

Maybe but it did drop dramatically after several copies turned up a few years back...I'd have thought 350-400. Might be wrong. They came from Las Vegas.

It's Gary Dean mate not vice versa

This is another 12" version of a classic...not literally...but it's too long

It's definitely a reissue, many copies worn to make them look old.

This version is just over 4 minutes but it's the longest version I know of

Hold on I'll get it for you...back in a sec

Yeah I know it was, I saw the smiley, just testing

Yeah there are but while I was doing that one, something happened and now my drives aren't reading the dvd's! The Barbara McNair - Youre Gonna...is a stunning live vocal over the original backing track. Actually I've got a track listing, bear in mind that 70% of the dvd's (there's 3 of them) are 60's pop, I just took the soul and a few 'discotheque' hits off.. Jr Walker - Shotgun / Supremes - I Hear A Symphony / Mitch Ryder - Jenny Take A Ride / Len Barry - 123 / Dobie Gray - The In Crowd / Kim Weston - Take Me In Your Arms (Rock Me) / The Toys - A Lovers Concerto / Sue Thompson - Paper Tiger / Leslie Gore - My Town My Guy And Me / Barbara Mcnair - You're Gonna Love My Baby / Outsiders - Time Won't Let Me / Sam The Sham & The Pharoahs - Woolly Bully / Joanie Sommers - Don't Pity Me / Supremes - Back In My Arms Again / Joe & Eddie - Walkin' Down The Line / Four Tops - Ask The Lonely / Frankie Valli - You're Gonna Hurt Yourself / Impressions - Womans Got Soul / Marvin Gaye - How Sweet It Is / Marvin Gaye - Ain't That Peculiar / Miracles - Going To A Go Go / Marvelettes - Don't Mess With Bill / Martha & The Vandellas - Nowhere To Run / Supremes - Nothing But Heartaches / Four Tops - Something About You / Little Anthony & The Imperials - Hurt So Bad

But that isn't pop masquerading as soul, is it??? We know it's pop/northern soul.

Just replaced that version with a really good quality one.

From Hullaballoo - off the official retail dvd no less. Think I converted that to too low a quality though, sorry.

You're joking, it should have been a full version, there's a lot of differences...try this, I'll upload again

Definitely should be in the soul snob thread but absolutely stunned to see you nominate this record. Mick Smith will take you off his Xmas card list, it's his all time favourite

testing how to rip audio from dvd - did this version of Joanie Sommers, singing live over the backing track, I'll do Barbara McNair in a minute with the sensational live version of YGLMB. Didn't know which section to put this in. see two posts down for smaller version to download

I've only ever seen one copy of this record ever - Mick Smith robbed me of it If I had the spare cash I'd buy it but meanwhile I reckon this is a very good investment https://cgi.ebay.com/NORTHERN-SOUL-JOCK-MIT...1QQcmdZViewItem
