Give me a few days and I might be able to help

I can't help myself, by a country mile. Ask The Lonely...prefer Ben Browns version! Not for the singing, which is average, but the arrangement is better.

Last week when we were in Wales I had to sit outside the caravan to smoke, and so to kill time I graded every track on one of my ipods, it's an interesting fact that of 3 Nick Drake lp's, only one track got more than 2 stars. Every track exactly the same. I love his voice, and the mood of the songs, but zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Also interesting that apparently the 3 best ever Jam tracks are "Ghosts", "The Bitterest Pill" and "Smithers Jones"!

BBC 4, 9pm tonight, should be good, sorry I know it's not really soul but interesting anyway

I like the Motown sound, after 67, it was almost gone completely, too diverse, mainly because of the L.A. influences.

I'd keep numbers 1 and 4...number 7 I would set fire to

Thats my number 1 as well

Top 5, definitely.

Cloud 9 is sh*t

Some of Smokeys lyrics make you just cringe with embarassment, I dunno about greatest living poet; I'm holding you so tight, you know you could have been a handle...my smile is just a frown turned upside down....

Don't like either of those!

When?

f*ck it, I'll remove one of the pictures, it's all too difficult

Er, one's a close up of the other, it's not a picture of two separate records

Trouble is, when you've had so many copies you don't look, it had been sitting on the shelf for at least 6 months. I also sold a Ric Tic demo of You're My Mellow on here last year as an issue, I didn't notice. NIce of the buyer to send me a "neh-neh-ne-ne-neh" email after as well...

I agree with you completely. What I also detest is people seeing a record fetch daft money on an Ebay or JM auction then immediately listing it on here for the same price, not realising that the people who pay these prices are either extremely well off or mentally ill.

No the correct answer is that the stock copy is worth £5 and the demo copy is worth anything up to £150...it's ultra rare

You might have seen I had a couple of cheapies lists out last couple of days, on one of them was The Parliaments - Don't Be Sore At me, great great record and still a good price at a fiver - anyway I sold one and knew I had a spare, so I sold that as well, for a fiver - and I was just about to put it in a mailer when I noticed something...

all the while I think - had a big country/pop hit as Beverly Bremers too

Beverly Ann...

Because it was so f&cking awful that it frightened you?

I don't think they do, not in the guide, and if they do they shouldn't! We all have overheads except some of us don't pass them on to the customer - costs me a lot to have a card machine, get charged on every transaction blah blah blah

Jim Webb did write it but no one actually said Glen Campbell wrote it!
