Hasn't one of them got something really good on it? Brain's saying Hytones "Bigger and Better" maybe - could be wrong though. Godz

I remember seeing in a soul fanzine ages ago (can't remember which) a drawing of how to mend a cracked 45. The recommendation was to cut about two inches off a plastic ruler - the pic showed one of those with a bevelled ridge down the center - and glue it to the B side. Never understood why a ruler. Surely an apple or a small dog would have been about as effective. Sorry - not much help this really is it? Godz

1976 - 70's Rock group Babe Ruth played on Soul scene 2005 - 70's Rock group Cado Belle played on Soul scene We've come a long way Godz

ok fair enough. You're right - it's a rubbish game. Godz

Ok here's something to stave off the boredom. Top Trumps DJ style A mate of mine was bragging about spending a year in Leeds living down the road from Andrew Weatherall so I was wondering who else lives near famous DJs I think you should add points for fame but deduct for lack of soul. And no being big headed and saying "Me - I live here" unless people outside of this forum have heard of you. ...err and some other stuff - you can tell I haven't really thought this through... so feel free to make up more rules. I'll start the ball rolling with Jimmy Saville - he has a home here and his mum lived here until her death the other year minus 5 points cos he aint really a soul jock Plus 10 points for inventing twin decks Anyone else want to play? Godz

Tell him I'll give him £40 Only kidding, cheers Dave. I'd ask if anyone else had one to sell but then Mike would chuck this post down into the Wants section Godz

Did it actually sell at that price, Dave? And can you remember who had it? PM me if you want. Cheers mate, Godz

Now that most people seem to be saying that instrumentals are passe, how much do you reckon a copy of "Hold On, Help Is On The Way" should cost me? I'd have thought £40 ish - am I far out? Cheers Godz

Too right Seriously though, I think eBay's attitude is really crap. The reply reads to me as though their main concern is that transactions don't take place outside of eBay - thus denying their income. The fact that bidders could become victims of fraud - potentially to the tune of thousands of dollars - seems to be of little consequence to the bastards. If there wasn't so much good stuff on there I'd boycott 'em Whatever their intended action may be, it hasn't included closing this miserable piece of scum's account yet has it? Godz

Well I finally got a reply from eBay regarding my reprting this item as attempted fraud. Hello, Thank you for reporting this email that you received.

well, worth a last shot. Picture_1.pdf Godz

Only kidding Mark - besides, I think it may be a bit late for that. Anyway, if I win it for a million it looks like there's plenty of people out there I could move it on to and make a packet Godz

Hope he doesn't remove all the top bids and leave it at a straight million or I'm really up sh*t creek!! Godz

Me too mate - I love 'em! It was just a gentle referrence to Christian's impossibly high standards when it comes to soul music Godz

US $99,999,999.00 not bad. Godz

Yor are correct, of course Christian - but not in the way that they meant For one moment there I thought I actually had a record that you liked Maybe I should sell it after all and buy some Beach Music and instrumentals... Godz

And don't forget Mark - it's an "authenticity record" Godz

Anybody know off the top of their head what the Final Value Fee on 95 million is Godz

I think we've discussed this tune before. £1.25 new release - The Golden Disc, Oldham 1976 (I think - at work at the moment) Told by mates it was "not Northern" Favourite tune in my box for nearly 30 years Godz

Crikey, Just bid a million dollars and was (thankfully) immediately outbid. Almost cacked myself just pressing the "confirm Bid" button! Scariest thing I've ever done. Time for a lie down Godz

Yup Cheers to Dukesy for starting this one off. What an "authenticity" beauty Hey - have we got a new euphamism - "did you spill my authenticity pint?" Godz

Not sure how the scan will come out, Gash, but you may be able to compare signatures. Godz

killer! Godz

Good for you lad. G

from a couple of years ago; Jimi Tenor - Spell Another Scandinavian. Sounds like Superfly era Curtis Mayfield reincarnated. Godz
