  1. Have you actually heard any Northern Soul records, because this is one of the best examples you could ever hear...
  2. It is undeniably good but I went off it a few years ago after hearing it too many times, now when it comes I just yawn..
  3. Go away you annoying person...you ruined the topic so it's closed
  4. Pete S replied to a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    Bit steep at £50, more liked £30 specially as a huge pile of em turned up with 'the find'...appears on every auction I get from those people at something like $25.
  5. Oh yeah I remember that, it was pretty funny wasn't it...I only liked about 5 of them if I remember rightly...
  6. May I license it please
  7. Cats Eyes was great at the time...
  8. I stopped Wigan in August 78 but went to Stafford and Birmingham alldayers til 81...never stopped going to The Vic til I left Wolverhampton in 84....is that ok Inspector?
  9. I never stopped going to venues because of UK pop Steve, I stopped going because of records like this, and finding something better to do...nice that you remember every word I type though you weirdo
  10. Here's a mini review of a couple of cd's - Soul In The Sun and Rare Soul Heaven volume 2 As I obviously have the best taste in music on the site , I've graded the tracks out of 10 so you know what you're getting 1. Catch That Teardrop - Five Royales - fairly pleasant doo-wop dancer 5 / 2. Jeanette - Wade Flemons - storming dancer 7 / 3. Tell Me I'm Yours - Fay Simmons - the epitome of bad R&B 3 / 4. I Can't Please You - Jimmy Robins - the eiptome of good R&B 9 / 5. My Baby's Been Cheating - A.C. Reed - another great uptempo R&B dancer 7 / 6. If I Could Only Be Sure - Nolan Porter - pleasant but overplayed floater 6 / 7. Girl I Love You - Garland Green - overrated midtempo 7 / 8. I Cried My Life Away - Tommy Navarro - nice latin flavoured Stafford sound 8 / 9. My Love Keeps Getting Stronger - Tommy Ridgley - overrated bore 6 / 10. You Should O' Held On - 7th Avenue Aviators - tremendous floorpacker 9 / 11. Emperor Of My Baby's Heart - Kurt Harris - gives northern soul music a bad name 3 / 12. I Love Her So Much It Hurts - Majestics - cracking LA dancer with wondeful string arrangement 9 / 13. Please Stay - Ivorys - utter classic 10 / 14. No One To Love - Pat Lewis - seminal Detroit piece with 'interesting' violin solo 9 / 15. Voltaire Pier - Chocolate Boys - ancient instrumental covered up rediscovered apparently 6 / 16. You Made Me This Way - Ila Vann - awful Mecca oldie 2 / 17. You Brought It On Yourself - Barbara Hall - waste of good vinyl 1 / 18. There Can Be A Better Way - Smith Brothers - plodding early 70's track which never caught on 5 / 19. Independent Woman - Jan Jones - records like this were the reason people stopped going to venues 2 / 20. Making My Daydream Real - We The People - now you're having a laugh 2 / 21. Cry Myself To Sleep - Rhetta Hughes - lovely version on LP only 8 1. Big City Playboy - Jimmy Andrews - like a tougher version of a Major Lance song..6 / 2. Open Up Your Heart (Let Love Out) - Mamselles - lacklustre vibes laden girl group 4 / 3. Lean On Me (When Headaches Get Rough) - Daye, Eddie & Four Bars - good vocal but primitive production, rubbish song 4 / 4. You're On Top Girl - Empires - probably the best of all the soo-wop influenced northern sounds 10 / 5. You Don't Even Know My Name - Hytones - truly rotten blue eyed sounding dancer makes Wayne Gibson sound like Eddie Parker 2 / 6. Joey - Jo Jo Petite - same song as Craxy Crazy by Little Jeanette which is the same song as Ain't Hta Peculiar..7 / 7. My Aim Is To Please - Ted Wilson - undistinguished male vocal 3 / 8. Dear Lord Above - Debbie & The Lads - barrel-scraping girl dancer 3 / 9. Lonely Girl (part 2) - Eric Mercury & Soul Searchers - great but utterly pointless mostly instrumental part 2 to the vocal, magic saxophone though 6 / 10. Oh Mary - Constellations - very very early outing which is actually a tremendous dancer 7 / 11. Man Ain't Supposed To Cry - Topics - the aural equivalent of eating a turd sandwich 3 / 12. Can't Get Enough Of My Baby's Lovin' - Fred Lowery & Big Bo/The Arrows - sounds more like L.S. Lowry 2 / 13. Clip My Wings - Anetta Archibald - the artists name is better than the record, R&B ish and so dull 3 / 14. I'll Give That To You - Sandy Wynns - much more like it, and the arrangement sounds a lot like label mate Gene Toones in parts...brilliant 9 / 15. Gotta Get Away - Slip & Dell - Identikit male group dancer 2 / 16. Jerkin' In Your Seat - Impacts - classic underplayed oldie now picking up again 7 / 17. Did You Mean - Blendels - very soulful midtempo sound 6 / 18. Girl That's An Awful Thing To Say - Neptunes - a sack of rock n roll pigs tits 2 / 19. Don't Come Running To Me - Sissie Houston - few versions of this about, this is nice 6
  11. Kenny - you're right of course - anything I send out would go on the bottom of the page with the list on it anyway so it's hardly sending people something they didn't ask for. Anyway, if they get that much spam they can get a f*cking spam blocker for free for goodness sake.
  12. Suzys Serenade is truly awful. I like Sugar Plum though
  13. Yeah I'm glad you're not on it as well Doesn't mean he can't be a country singer because he's black does it? I mean, have you heard it? Sounds like Willie Nelson.
  14. Said it before... Larry Houston George Hobson George Lemmons Mike McDonald if it had to be just one...hard choice but Larry Houston
  15. If I go any cheaper I'll be selling them for what I pay for them - I already do them about 20% cheaper than most. And if they don't go this week, they get reduced next week.
  16. No it's not. See above.
  17. Selling records is not an easy job at the moment, I can assure you of that. People are getting more selective and careful with money, and in my experience, oldies take up about 85% of all sales.
  18. Yes because he personally owns it Atlantic still has the rights to the Atlantic-era Stax recordings released up to May 1968 most of which have been reissued by co-owned Rhino Records. Fantasy did release a box set titled The Stax Story which includes Atlantic-era material. Kent license from Fantasy.
