Monique - If You Love Me
You should get at least 2 Tobi Larks for that! The gold Monique I would rate at £800. The coloured one, I sold for £500 last year, remember the fuss?

He's not trying to scupper the sale, if someone makes big bold claims then anyone has the right to give an opinion on that. Pretty good track I thought.

Thanks Leigh, wasn't too bad really apart from this horrendous cough left over from the flu, but last night I splept through til 4am until the coughing started, managed to go to sleep again at 5.30. I feel sorry for anyone else who's got this, what a nasty bug! As for christmas, as you know, all our christmas money went up in smoke but I managed to get Sam some nice things and I got Dee a new telly for the bedroom using the rent money Anyway mustn't grumble, Sam had a whale of a time, thats the important thing, shame Dee had to break her foot the day before Xmas eve though

It's about respect. John Peel wasn't a soul artist but he got a massive tribute on here. So did George Best.

I'm still amazed that very few of us recognise "There comes a time" as being a monster Solid Hitbound production - that sax solo, it's Mike terry all the way. Great record. She was a pretty groovy catwoman as well I seem to remember.

That just takes you to youtube but is it the guys off the Johnny Vaughan show you're on about? Just turn up and start dancing at a random supermarket or similar?

Dvd Release - Northern Soul 200 Greatest Floorfillers from Wienerworld
It is a good point though, and I point I made when it came out - I'd have loved to know the artists reactions to finding out that their records were popular, or how they came to make them; I remember a short clip of Garnet Mimms was included where he couldn't believe Looking For You was popular, said he recorded it and forgot about it

Good to see you here Ian Levine, I hope you try and keep calm in the face of provocation and don't explode like you usually do, as it would be nice to have your knowledge on here for a while and not see you get kicked off

I know what you mean, but they had no choice but to re-record them. The new stuff is really good though.

Ian has expained to me that they haven't sampled anything - brand new technologly which didn't even exist a year ago now allows them to analize the unique frequencies of those northern soul drumbeats and change the sounds that they recorded themelsves to match almost exactly. Ian's got over 2000 master recordings, containing all of the original drums from Baby I'm still the same man, Your magic put a spell on me etc - and you can tweak these drum sounds to make them sound as if they come from any era.

I reckon so too Eddie. Maybe I'll try and get an mp3 and post it in the media section so more people can hear it.

Bit of a difference between one drum roll intro and a whole song made up from other tracks though. I like the Frank Popp records anyway.

I think the problem is, we got so used to the Levine trademark production sound that we didn't feel the need to actually listen to anything else cos we know what it's going to sound like - I was genuinely surprised when I went onto his youtube site and actually listened to some of the tracks today. Did you hear the sample from The Sweets - Something about my baby, right at the start, I got that in one this record don't half grow on you after 2 or 3 listens though

What about this...this has surely got to be as good as any recent product played on the Northern scene...I think maybe we dismissed the 21st century northern soul project too easily without even listening

Just wondered if anyone had actually seen any of this stuff - the old SWONS footage I mean - what they've done to them is astonishing. All those terrible psychedelic swirly effects have been completely removed and the videos look really contemporary. Nearly 10 years ago I was one of the original films biggest detractors but over time it's become probably the most important historical Northern Soul document that there is (some of it due to the fact that many of it's participants started to pass away after it came out). But this is a different kettle of fish, it's not the original film, it's the performances plus a load of new ones (including Eddie Parker - I'm Gone apparently). Anyway I can assure you this is not an advert on behalf of Ian Levine Ltd - I'm genuinely kind of shocked as to what they've done with the footage - and the new stuff isn't bad either! ">
