    Also the fact that one of the artists who appeared at a recent weekender was/is known wife beater, haven't seen that mentioned on here at all despite it being a well known 'fact'
  2. https://planetrecords.podbean.com/2007/12/1...reggae-1968-69/ In late 1967 / early 1968, the soulful sound of rocksteady gave way to the next phase in Jamaican music - the new uptempo sound which was to become known internationally as REGGAE. Here are some classic sounds from that early period, along with rarities which appeared during the following 12 months in early 1969. n.b. sorry about the siren noise at the start, that was a mistake! AUSTIN FAITHFUL - I AM LOSING YOU - BLUE CAT AUSTIN FAITHFUL - UNCLE JOE - BLUE CAT BOBBY FRANCIS - CHAIN GANG - JJ CLANCYS ALLSTARS - C.N. EXPRESS - PAMA ROY SHIRLEY - DANCE THE REGGAY - JJ DERRICK HARRIOTT - BEEN SO LONG - BIG SHOT DERRICK MORGAN - ME NAH GIVE UP - PYRAMID ERIC BARNET - THE HORSE - GAS JONNY ORGAN - DON JUAN - CAMEL LAUREL AITKEN - RISE AND FALL - JJ THE MAYTALS - NIGHT AND DAY - TROJAN PAT KELLY - NEVER GIVE UP - GAS PRINCE BUSTER - DOCTOR RODNEY - FAB SIR GIBBS (THE PIONEERS) - PEOPLE GRUDGEFUL - AMALGAMATED THE GAYLETTS - IF YOU CAN'T BE GOOD BE CAREFUL - BIG SHOT THE MAYTONES - CALL YOU UP - BLUE CAT this is one of at least 3 podcasts going up this weekend

  4. It's only a case of listening, you all know what the difference is between rocksteady and reggae guys...the whole point of setting this up in sections was so that posts were puit in the right place. Thnaks for pointing it out Gordy, not had chance to come in here for ages.
  5. I'll take 200 on the Sandy Wynns to get shut of it
  6. SURELY NOBODY WOULD CONSIDER PAYING £90 FOR THAT? £9 MAYBE. Never mind if it's sh*t or not, it's actually only worth £25 anyway
  7. You know where I am if you want any of them Stuart I'd make exceptions for my best customers p.s. there was also a mint copy of Ska Au Go Go but with no sleeve!
  8. In that case, thanks for the information Tone, they are all now sold (not really but they'll be put away til after Xmas) I was guessing the prices...
  9. ALL WITHDRAWN EXCEPT FOR REGGAE GIRL Look carefully cos you'll never see these advertsied for sale again in this condition: all are EX / EX VARIOUS ARTISTS - JUMP JAMAICA WAY - R & B JBL 1111 £250 Possibly the rarest ska album ever issued in the UK VARIOUS ARTISTS - GREATEST JAMAICAN BEAT (FROM TREASURE ISLE) - DOCTOR BIRD DLM 5009 £150 VARIOUS ARTISTS - SKA BOO DA BA - DOCTOR BIRD DLM 5000 £175 VARIOUS ARTISTS - REGGAE GIRL - BIG SHOT BIL 3000 £80 TRACK LISTINGS / SCANS / MORE DETAILED GRADINGS AVAILABLE ON REQUEST
  10. I'd say a little higher, £30.
  11. It's certainly a very rare album - I've had about 75% of all Pama LP's and I've never seen that. Unfortunately it's not collected as much as the reggae albums and I'd only rate it at £40 because of that...and the fact that their 45's are easy to pick up and not that collectable. Somebody trying to fill in the gaps of their Pama collection would probably pay more though.
  12. He bought a copy of Ann Sexton off me earlier this year

  16. If anyone is interested I've chucked around 40 red and white Island label ska 45's up in my Ebay shop, most are in "G" condition and fillers but they did me ok and they are only a fiver apiece.. also there's another 100 or so Northern and Modern soul 45's up. I'm putting up more reggae and ska, higher priced items, this afternoon https://stores.ebay.co.uk/PETE-SMITHS-PLANE...Q3aFQ3aSTQQtZkm
  17. ME AND A LAD CALLED sTEVE EDWARDS WERE THE ONLY 2 GOING FROM WOLVERHAMPTON THIS ONE SATURDAY, I'D BEEN TO THE OLDIES THE NIGHT BEFORE, COME HOME, AND DECIDED TO GO BACK UP, ANYWAY WHEN WE GOT TO CREWE WE WERE TOLD WE DIDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE TRAIN, WE ENDED UP SPENDING THE ENTIRE NIGHT IN A SIDING SOMEWHERE NEAR PRESTON BECAUSE WE SHOULD HAVE CHANGED AT CREWE...
  18. The first Anderson brothers bootleg was definitely on vinyl. The vinyl was thick and as mentioned above, it had a dip just before the centre hole. A few records were done at the same time, Dave Newman springs to mind. The originals are thinner and have a less pronounced dip. The common boot is the styrene one.
  19. YEAH i CAN KEEP IT CHRIS, THATS ONE OF THE FEW BITS i HAVEN'T GOT DESPITE KNOWING ABOUT IT FOR YEARS. I COULD ALSO ADD IT TO THIS COMPILATION...WOULD BE GREAT

  22. The reason I asked for paypal payments is because I didn't want to have to put this through my business, and it made it easier to simply transfer money into Karen's paypal account from which she could withdraw it, if she ever worked out how to do it also I didn't want to take it on credit/debit cards because the company doesn't like me taking transactions under £10. With paypal all you have to do is go to www.paypal.com and click 'send money' and they walk you through it, doesn't cost you anything as far as I know, but if anyone wants to pay by cheque they can always mail them directly to Karen and she can let me know where to send the discs.
  23. I did - in fact I doubt there was a bigger critic of the film than me and it landed me in hot water with several people, they even launched a website just to slag me off for daring to criticise it...ah those were the days...but if you go back to the film it gets better and better. For a start - the interview footage and history of the scene is second to none and the best thats been done. The special effects were done for a reason - to cover up the background of where the singer was peforming (many were done in the artists own homes). I know that Ian is going through all of the clips one by one and since the technology has evolved, he's removing the special effects. Have a look at jackie Ross - Keep Your Chin Up on youtube and you'll see how it's now filmed in subtle tints rather than swirly Doctor Who type effects. What I had a problem with was the recreation of the actual tracks, which is probably why you refer to it as karaoke, a lot of the basic 60's music doesn't translate into the multi-track 90's, but of course they couldn't get the copyright to use the original recordings and the artists would have had to mime anyway. I do know where you're coming from but I think if you dip into it again you'll enjoy it more this time.
