    I remember getting this on a tape as an unknown back in the early 90's - bought it when I first got on the internet in early 1997 for $3. Listed it half a dozen times, nobody wanted it, sold it to Mick Smith for 5 quid! Got another in about 1998, sold it to Ian Levine for £30. What's happened since to make it rarer than Johnny Caswell???
  2. You saw Nirvana then? When Cobain came on in the wheelchair??
  3. Sorry I meant 6 track not 8
  4. Thanks Nick. You're right, Leroy Carr was volume 2 in that set of EP's (7168) and there is an album on CBS but still a bit puzzling why there would be an 8 track emidisc I think.
  5. I didn't really buy it to sell it, I buy interesting records of all sorts of music (except modern soul)...but don't underestimate how many blues collectors there are..ever seen one of Teftellers auctions?
  6. should be a scan
  7. Young Master Foetus actually...
  8. Way off from what we usually cover on here but this guy was a major blues artist from the 30's, why this record exists I have no idea but it's got to be worth £3.20! His Vocalion 78's are worth a lot of money in the States. Just thought it was an interesting curiosity. https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...me=STRK:MEWN:IT

    There was a British beat group called The Peppermint Men - backed Ray Anton - sorry don't know anything else about it
  10. (Goes to garage to find old Ace catalogues and prove Ady wrong)
  11. Yeah, several. Still, proves I wasn't bullshitting about Music Master
  12. You fibber. Surely this can't be true, if it is, I don't remember it happening
  13. I'd play "Can't help thinking about me" and "Do anything you say" though
  14. Yeah ok Grandad. I used to be the assistant editor at Music Master so not only did we get the new product and new release information from Ace, we also got the notifications of deletions, because we compiled all this information and then sent it out to practically every record in the country - they used to have a huge red book they kept behind the counters to check availability of records. And the Cascade lp was on catalogue for ages. Kinnell, some of the things you try to pick arguments about
  15. Because if you put on a Northern Soul night, Joe Punter is going to expect to hear what is generally recognised as Northern Soul and that's uptempo 60's soul
  16. p.s. obviously it was full up because I am so popular
  17. Wendy did I promise to send you some cd's, because if I did, I apologise but my PM box got full so I deleted the lot...honest
  18. This is what I was saying the other day. I used to like 70's northern.
  19. I played the wah wah guitar solo on that record
  20. From highly dilligent specialised research. I asked my girlfriend what percentage of people she thought would like modern soul at a northern night and she said "what the f*cking hell is modern soul" so I explained and she said "how should I know", so I asked the dog and she made four or five kind of begrudging grunting noises at being woken up so I took that to mean the answer was 5 percent.
  21. I think a lot of these records don't stand up in the cold light of day - but when you used to hear them played out, loud, they took on a different guise altogether. I mean, you couldn't listen to something like Broadway Cissy at home because it's a mess and doesn't make sense, but at Wigan it sounded incredible..
  22. Yes but only about 5% of the people even like this so called 70's northern. The other 95% don't like it so why can't they just play 5% of it per night? Sounds sensible to me, oh yes it does
