  1. Neither. And certainly never those flimsy envelopes, which offer zero corner protection.
     

    For most standard orders we use Defenda’s Musicmax mailers with two of their extra rigid stiffeners. We ship a lot of vinyl from the shop and send it around the world without issue.

    For more expensive items or shipments of 3-5 albums we use the deluxe mailers from Covers33, which are essentially their version of Whiplash mailers.

     

  2. I think some of the fairs in the Northwest were definitely playing to the growing NS crowd.

    I remember loads of popular Motown of the time being played: Two Can Have A Party, Needle In Haystack, Wherever I Lay My Hat etc) but also Festival Time and stuff like The Kid and Condition Red, which sounded awesome coming out of the powerful, bassy systems.

    The last two still trigger the sights, sounds and smells of the fairground whenever I hear them.

    Yes, thanks, although what I meant was the concentration of specific DD records, as opposed to any classic Pye/Roulette/Calla etc.

    You mean you’re hoping for Footsie, right?

    Kidding Mick!! 😆

    Motown and related Box Sets. These are all genuinely Near Mint. No warps, scuffs and the Tempts 45 was checked and plays without faults.

    These boxes came from the estate of a late collector who was a customer of ours. Not a DJ and really took care of his records. I have no way of knowing if the downloads work. Sorry about the glare on the pics - it's been sunny!

  5. An amazing singer songwriter, astonishing vocalist and a lovely human being. Saw her play at Glasto with a terrific band including Mick Talbot on keyboards.

    I chatted to her occasionally online and she was kind, funny and smart, with some great stories of the music business. 

    Reach For The Truth would be one of my Desert Island Discs.

    Hi all

    Just had a set of Motown 7s boxes come into the shop. They all look superb but I recall reading about some issues witha couple of the early ones.

    Can anyone advise which volumes/discs had the problems please? I'd like to avoid hours of internet searching and/or playing through both sides of all the singles if possible!

    Thanks in advance :)

    ..................

    John Thomas – It Sure Is Groovy / Come See Me – Veep promo Pic Sleeve £44

    Two great Mod/Soul sides for the price of one. Check the credits… Both sides glossy Mint Hard to find promo sleeve has a small amount of wear but is still extremely presentable.

    https://youtu.be/96EylFsULGs

    https://youtu.be/fyicJJZg6r4

     

    Mystic Moods – Astral Trip – WB Promo VG+ £39

    Appropriately trippy sounding dancer from the Wigan era and still a popular oldie. Vinyl has light surface marks but is still glossy and plays at least Ex.

    https://youtu.be/C3jw25hxehs

     

    Lorna Doone – Dangerous Town – RCA Promo VG+ £29

    Uptempo Big City style sound. Super strong VG+ with lightest of paper marks. Seen at much higher prices

    https://youtu.be/xobRNWQfMdU

     

    Dutch Robinson – Can’t Get Along Without You – UA Promo VG £35 SOLD

    Seldom heard out, which is a mystery. Never booted or reissued, this has loads of legs left.

    M/S promo. Stereo side is pretty crackly but Mono side sounds great.

    https://youtu.be/bwhDwxEnS8A

     

    Vivian Roberts – So Very Proud of You VG+ £29

    Would have sat nicely between Judy Hughes and Vivian Carrol, but seldom heard out. Nice blue eyed female dance that takes off when the backing vocals come in. Some ringwear and slight discolouration to label as seen. Vinyl has surface marks but it’s a solid player.

    https://youtu.be/uuMggqlDDvY

     

    Linda Elliot – Fell In Love With You Baby – Josie Promo VG+ £39  SOLD

    Light marks, nice play copy. A little ring wear to label as seen. Old school, feelgood Northern fave which retains the ability to pack floors

    https://youtu.be/T93Ze_xTbi4

     

    Joe Tex – Under Your Powerful Love – Dial VG+ £24 SOLD

    Perennial fave across various scenes. Somewhat questionable lyrics, it has to be admitted, but a great soul dancer nonetheless. Styene looks Ex but has evidence of a pressure fracture which they’re prone to, but the record isn’t actually cracked and it plays perfectly. Slight label smudge.

    https://youtu.be/oz1d5OBTpMQ

     

    Stingers - I refuse to be Lonely – Stax VG+ £75

    One of the rarer Stax singles and a terrific dancer. Only available on issue, as the promos have the funk flip on each side. Never booted/reissued, so tons of potential. This copy has a couple of surface scuffs, so we’re grading VG+ but it plays beautifully and the labels are lovely and clean.

    What's so "pot and kettle" about making aware of a scammer account on Discogs?

    He’s conflating someone selling records which are - in his view - overpriced with organised criminals deliberately setting out to defraud victims.

    There’s a clear difference, which is evident to most I suspect.
