Pete S

I can categorically confirm that there is NOTHING wrong with the green copies except that they all have an excess piece of plastic on the run in that looks like it might have caused a problem, but it doesn't. Anyone who tells you it is off centre or plays with noise just has a duff copy. Also don't forget it was bootlegged with Detroit Soul on the b side.

Nice of me to tell though wasn't it, where's my halo gone...

Never seen a vinyl one from anywhere

I like cranberry juice

Too expensive for me but oneof you lot might want it https://cgi.ebay.com/MINT-M-NORTHERN-SOUL-4...1QQcmdZViewItem

Well thats even more all over the place, the Mark Copage dates it to 75 (it was reissued that year)! You sure it's Popcorn Wylie's Hanky Panky? (Not saying it's not like, just wondering how it's possible)

Just checked, it was £34.99, tight sods

Paul your date is way out I'm afraid, 1977 was the year it was discovered and it was released, like they say, on the first Grapevine album which appeared in early 78

BOUND TO BE ISSUES MATE BUT i'VE NEVER SEEN ONE. I REALLY LIKE THE RECORD TO BE HONEST BUT CAN'T SEEM TO GET A LOT OF INTEREST IN IT, SOMEONE SHOULD GIVE IT A GOOD PLAYING OUT AND IT'LL SOON GO BIG

Think it went for £45 on ebay...

Sorry Dave.

I'll put the whole lot up as an audio clip if you want me to

Have they still got an outline of the record middle on their forehead? "Hey whats that circle thing on your forehead, a birth mark"?

"Pop" is in the ear of the beholder surely. Some will call Don't Pity Me (Joanie Sommers) pop, I call it a brilliant Northern Soul record. I don't call it a soul record because it's not, but it is Northern Soul. Two separate genres of music. Julian Covey "A little bit hurt", perfect Northern dancer. Not soul though. Chapter Five "You can't mean it" as good a stomper as has ever been made. Not soulo though. Dean Parrish "Determination" one of the best Northern Soul records ever made, but by a white bloke from Jersey, so not soul? I don't care if they are pop in some peoples opinions, they are great records, you slag me off for being blinkered against modern soul but that has less to do with Northern Soul than most of the pop records that people claim to dislike. Don't be a sheep... p.s. I love The Crow record

Sure I remember you saying you threw a record at someone, broke it and you've never seen it again - "City Skies"?

It's Peat actually Moggy but it prefers to be called Peater

I wish I could find out because this is the 4th day of this paticular gout-bout - though I know someone on the scene, I won't say who, who gets it so bad that it is debilitating and he has had to go into hospital for pain killing injections, thats how bad it can get.

Just to say I am going to wrap this up on friday morning 11am. The offer on Gloria Barnes is at 315 quid and thats what it will sell for if it's not upped. The increments are £5. There are no offers on the other album. cheers Pete

Sorry for rubbish scan but here's another

I can't stand being called Peter and I can barely bring myself to say it when someone asks me my name. How f*cking weird is that?

Correct. rare single too that is.

Absolutely - did you ever hear "He's our dear old weatherman" by Mark Wirtz? Has all the grocer jack trademarks but a bit more of an edge to it as well as numerous weird special effects, a fabulous piece of late 60's psych/whimsy...

Harry sorry but you're wrong, I'veseen the original press advertisement and it clearly states it's Sam Nesbit, the Crow wasn't even discovered for another 3 or 4 years after the 444 label was mooted

Absolutely. Well 99%.
