Same group, same label - and nothing like a Five Stairsteps tune. Not much like a soul song to be honest, but hang on to your hats! What a backing track!

Higher Ebay Fees

Higher Ebay Fees
Maybe I misunderstand what you're saying then. Aplogies if i do but it seems like you want the benefits of advertising your records on eBay (massive exposure, searchable content, secure payment methods, feedback etc) without paying whatever the going rate is. Two wrongs don't make a right, mate. Godz

Higher Ebay Fees
WTF? Would you pay £15 postage for uk delivery on one 45? If your record doesn't sell for £25 that's because that particular week no-one wants to pay that for it. eBay allows potentially millions of people to see your sale items. If you don't want to pay the fees use other methods of selling. I'm not justifying eBay hiking their fees here - just seems that charging false and inflated postage is completely unethical. Also, if you have to refund an item for some reason I believe you're only obliged to return the actual sale price - not shipping. Not good Godz

Soul Britannia
That last bit didn't apply in the 80s did it? When The Fall released "Slates" on 10 inch in 1981 it was considered ineligible for the singles chart as it had six tracks so wasn't classed as an EP, and ran over 20 minutes. It was too short to be considered an album though, and despite being one of the band's biggest sellers didn't register in any chart at the time. Nowt to do with soul music of course ( err.. except for Ghost in my House, maybe...) but a nugget for the anoraks on here Godz

At the risk of being torn to shreds by the baying mob... ... I thought that there were some really good bits. Particularly enjoyed seeing the footage of Cymande. I agree that ol' Jazzy was talking pants though. Most black kids I knew in the 70s just thought Northern Soul said nothing to them. That was certainly the case with the black kids I went to school with anyway. On the whole they were more interested in reggae and to a lesser extent funk. A lot of my school chums were influenced by their older brothers and sisters and they wanted music that was a bit more political and representive of their culture, so it was more a case of choice than being excluded.
