Quote: · The first U.K. or foreign label release if contemporaneous with the U.S. release, e.g. The British Soul City release of Gene Chandler's "Nothing Can Stop Me" would qualify but not the British Soul City release of Jack Montgomery's "Dearly Beloved". If you're going to create a manifesto you should get your facts right. Gene Chandler on Soul City is a reissue, it came out after the original release on Stateside so according to your rules, it cannot be played. I rest my case.

No problem mate

What a load of fucking bollocks

Good point actually - you only have to listen to the Uk releases of Chapter Five, The Capitals and Gerri Hall - they all sound very compressed and dull

I know you're impressed really

Not only do I remember it but I actually got a letter printed in the NME! Someone slagged it off saying it was dull music by Northern vikings or some such shite, I replied and said basically that much NS is as soulful as the people he'd quoted (can't remember who) and obviously I won the argument ... claim to fame there!

Got a couple in that quality if you want some more..def not off the cd

Did it have that bit at the start on the cd?? Never got round to getting the soundtrack

Reason I said do they sound different is because I don't give a toss what the format is though I'm not keen on cd, though I guess if I was 20 years younger I would probably feel the same as you

Oh yes please!!!!

hey that's my line

Not so much the track but the little bit of studio chat at the start...magical

Why, do they sound different???

They are on Ebay at £8 buy it now!

Someone is playing silly buggers with PM's...somebody has sent messages purporting to be from myself and Mick Smith to sellers of records. We know nothing about this and would ask if you can check the pm's to see who actually did it, though I've a good idea. thanks Pete

Yeah it is Joe, it's called M.P.G. Great track which used to be played by Russ at Wigan. I'm going to revive it if no-one else has already

Could anyone possibly send me an mp3 of Marvin gaye - It's a bitter pill to have to swallow? It's an lp track off the album MPG. Much apprciated cheers pete

It was a budget price release which whittled out all the chaff from the two previous volumes, or what, are you saying that every note that came out on Shrine was genius?

The Grapevine lp's are brilliant - all of them, especially the second...absolute top quality. But no sleeve notes, maybe thats why

ALL SOLD NOW, SORRY

Kinnell I could do you one of those, before I sold my British I taped most of them - there are over 60 Motown covers alone!
