The Biggest Insult On Here
Sorry but I think you should take into account people's ages and family life. When you get to a certain age and are married, have kids etc, you just don't want to spend your weekends travelling and staying up all night. That's a young mans game. Where are these 'boot clubs' you speak of, is it like fight club...nothing would encourage me to travel to a Northern Soul event, apart from knowing I was going to see old friends there.

Just Won Flowers "we Can Make It Happen" On Lax For .99P On Ebay! Then It All Went Wrong
Yeah I was Vince, but not sure if you ever gave the sellers ID apart from his real name?

I can't see where you've left him any feedback - not showing in 'feedback left for others'

Oh really, I thought it was more likely to be falling attendences at venues

Honestly Why Buy Boots Or Pressings Etc Etc
Maybe it depends on what you do with the file? With the files I download, I make cd's to play in the car mainly. Or I use some of them on podcasts - which I don't charge for. You could argue that by including a track on a podcast, people become aware of it and may well try and find it on a cd.

Honestly Why Buy Boots Or Pressings Etc Etc
It would be impossible to say how many tracks I've got on hard drives and discs etc. I know there's about 22,000 in my itunes currently. I would say that I imported around 2000 cd's of my own into it, the rest have come from the internet.

If you can't tell why someone would prefer a 7" piece of vinyl to a computer file, I give up. You can't play an mp3 on a turntable for a start. The scene is built around RECORDS.

Pin this, exactly what I was saying, vinyl is totally different to 'owning' an mp3 or a cd Matt, you can hold it and look at it for a start. I've got more original records than a lot of people will ever see, but as I said, my own personal collection of favoutites is pressings, reissues and bootlegs. So what.

Honestly Why Buy Boots Or Pressings Etc Etc
Most of my own personal American Northern Soul records are pressings or reissues. They're mine, I play them a lot here at home, they hold so many memories and I don't care what label they're on. The fact that I've had most of them on original at some point in time is neither here nor there, I have to sell the originals as it's my only income so I'm happy with my little collection. But in answer to the question, I buy them because they are a cheap way of getting my favourite records on vinyl.

Reggae Got Soul?
Well they played Dillinger - Cocaine In My Brain at the Mecca according to another thread - though it did have the bass riff of Do It Any Way You Wanna I suppose

Janis Joplin was more of a blues singer than a soul singer anyway, wasn't she?

At one of the Volks Tavern alldayers in Brighton, this would be about 1999 - 2000 I think, I played The Wailers - Whats New Pussycat in the middle of a Northern set. Mind you, everyone was outside drinking and I was the only person indoors...it went down well

It's only a flippant line Win, I doubt if he really means it, and just because he says it you're hardly going to take any notice, surely?

It's his opinion and he's entitled to express it whether you, me or anyone else agrees or disagrees with him.

Funnily enough I had a stone mint UK Studio One copy of Moving Away for sale about a month ago - went totally unnoticed on here, no interest - got £70 for it on Ebay eventually. It's a hard record to find on UK, let alone a mint one.

Yes it is, I honestly thought you could post them temporarily and now I know that you can't, I won't do it again.

Errol Dixon On Oriole
Right. Good luck with that one then!

Chalky I wouldn't do it if I didn't think I'd been told that it was ok to do so, I don't try to annoy you just for the sake of it. Unless they were only allowed in one particular section?

Is that on the other side of "Rocks in my pillow"?

Now I was told that if refosoul wasn't working, it was ok to temporarily put up an mp3. Can you check?
-

Refosoul wasn't working, what am I supposed to do, sing it for you? Please remind me what the four are, I can remember one other. Get off my back Chalky, you're becoming way to transparent.
