In a dream?

Span can you let me know the gig where you play this and when it's on, I'll cut the power

It's not rare mate, not really anyway - 40 to 60 quid. It's a different take to the one on Streamside for some reason.

I forgot Billy Harner! Must be equal number 1 rarity.

I agree. I got £225 for my r&w last year, it was only the second one I'd actually seen in the flesh. I bought it off some dick on ebay, paid him £200 for it and he sent it in a bubble wrap jiffy bag thing with no cardboard and not even recorded delivery.

I think the Lou Johnson is on a London Monument demo (might be wrong). EMI label demos shouldn't be mega rare, I don't think they did 750 but certainly 250 upwards.

Theres no black Hickory issue, it's white...

It's just a film!

Just pulling yer leg Dante!

Yes, got it off ebay. Though I do get all my records off ebay.

This does not belong to me

Where does this rumour come from that I am grumpy? Honestly, I am not grumpy, very rarely anyway. Anyone who's met me will never say I'm grumpy. I just don't see why I'm talked about like an alien or something for not liking crossover or modern soul. I like *some* of most types of music which is more than can be said about a lot of 'blinkered' soulies. p.s. I am not grumpy

Yeah but it is Kev, it's patronising, I got into this scene because I loved rare uptempo soul, not languid no-beat soul, I don't want to try to immerse myself in the latter, I know what I like and if that means I prefer Chapter 5 to Elipsis, then why can't I be left alone to like hat without being called names?

Oh for f*cks sake. Go and join the rest of the special ones, the unblinkered ones. I hope you'll all be very happy together in your little soul heaven. I don't dislike something because I'm BLINKERED - I don't like it because IT'S F*CKING CRAP

Yes!

66 at a guess?

Apart from the percussion clicks being louder, think it's the same. Love that sax instrumental though!

I'm always helpful!

They are legit, they're from a series of Motown karaoke discs that came out several years ago, I've posted many of them up before. One set features accapellas, the second features instrumentals, all are the authentic original backing tracks. I think they were withdrawn from sale not long after they were released, and may have been available at Wallmart stores only. I've got all of them somewhere.

Acetates are just to run off a track to listen back to. The master/stamper is what they use to press the record. Then they make a test presing, then a demo, then an issue.
