I love both of those as well...specially Shoes...what a voice

I like both of them - Don Ray, always loved it, Curtis Lee one of the best newies of the last decade or so...

I've not heard that Gaturs record since 1976 or 77, there used to be a few copies around this area because Pep used to sell them via his shop, always told us it was going to go massive but despite a couple of spins countrywide, it never did. Sounds fantastic now.

Now come on

I'll give that a little nudge...might even win it

It came out in Belgium if thats any help

Chris - when I said the same about the Montclairs, which truly is painfully awful, this is the reply I got, so read it and start feeling ashamed of yourself "Well its not the worst, and its not a mess, and the vocals are great, and are pure soul music!! You should be ashamed to fault a record of this quaility, because its great and thats a fact!!"

No, don't be like that, it's worth sorting out this mystery - I still don't think it came out in the USA but would love to be proved wrong.

Thats correct, and Johnny was Johnny Curtis who did two good singles on Parlophone, died circa 1969. They were both Scottish.

Possibly one of the best 10 northern soul records ever - except for the last 30 seconds

Last time I said I disliked Bobby Kline I had a marauding mob after me - nice to see someone else has good taste

I'm also surprised about this Malc, I didn't think there was a US release either.

three of those are brilliant and Ben Zine isn't that bad...still, if we all liked the same thing etc

Actually while you're here, you ever heard of this? I hadn't - I didn't even know there was anything collectable on this label https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Lloyd-The-Matador-Th...86.c0.m14.l1318

Just trying to move it away from 'Northern Soul' Tone - in that context, it is a bad record. On it's own - it's still a bad record

Not sure, but the B side was by someone like the Unknowns or the Nonames or something a bit vague!

Are you serious Simon?

Price please? I saw another 100 Club 45 on Ebay yesterday for £100, think it was Gigi & The Charmaines. Someone must be having a laugh? Lorraine about £50 maybe?

That's what I meant Dave. Country and rock'n'roll and black pop. Way way too early sounding.

Not a bad uptempo dancer - just wondered if it was known - probably blue eyed. MIKE ANCONA & THE JOKERS - BOUND FOR LOVE - CHASE 6001 (Texas label?)

Because it doesn't belong on the Northern scene. Might be good in it's own right, but here? No way.

That's ruined the day

My brother sat next to him this one match, Plant asked my brother if he could havge a look at his 'Load of Bull' and he forgot to give it back, so Andy wrote him a letter jokingly saying you can keep the magazine but can you send us an autographed photo or something like that, within a couple of weeks he'd received a letter, the photos, and his fanzine back.

If you have a quick search you'll find some publicity shots for the group "Listen" which I posted up a couple of months back. They came from a girl who used to go out with Rob Plant at the time they released "You better run", there was a scrapbook with handwritten letters, photos, even a copy of the record - she gave it to a mate of mine. "You better run" was released at exactly the same time by The N'Betweens - two West Midlands groups releasing the same record at the same time, very strange.

Do you really think that's it's appropriate for someone to say you should be "ashamed" not to like a record?
