its all good, especially expansions... A mate of mine gave me all of Roy Ayres LP's in Mp3 form about a year ago, every one, all brilliant.. Good little story on him, he played Ronnie Scotts over a decade ago in Birmingham, and in the day time before his show set up in one of the shopping centers with copies of his latest LP, just him, a chair, a table, the Lp's and a Big bouncer type chap, anyhow I'm walking past and notice this guy (Roy) has the LP up against his face and its pulling it down and making a funny face and silly voice to passers by, only when I went up to him did I twig who he was... as Obviously I had a ticket to attend later... Really nice chap, chated for twenty mins, he signed an autograph, said Roy Ayres = Good Vibes, with a big cut-out of his head and shoulders, and I leave with his latest LP... made my day. Mal.C

Think my first all nighter would have been a Twisted Wheel revival nighter with that Tony Clayton bloke, he was the priest right? would have been 87 I guess, quickky followed by the 100 club where I fell asleep with my head in one of the noughts !! Sounds that I remember, Precisions, Chubby Checker, Bobby Hebb, Ersque Reeder, Jerry Fuller..most of the music I knew was from Kent Lp's and from scooter runs; would have been attending the Old Vic in Wolverhampton every month also, so Lady in Green from Ted Massey, and Verdelle Smith and Kelly Garret are stand outs played by Tony Renoylds there and at the Out Rigger in Brum.. Reminds me of the Big SKOL Sign on the Birmingham sky line, by the Rotunda... !! happy memories.. Mal.C.

after the following tracks, drop me a mail if you have em knocking about. Mal.C. Loretha Vanover - I'm here to give it to you / Chas Ann Joanne Vent - Weak Spot / Label Dunno?? Francone Thomas - To Beautiful to be Good/ Label Dunno??

really, £100 for the p-Vine LP? I'd had said £60 - £80 tops... mal.C

where's Blackpol?

Tyrone Davis - Can I Change My Mind (Dakar) VG++ £6 Chicago class. So underated IMO. WOL in black marker pen but can bearly be seen as it's on the black colouring of the label. (Looks far worse on scan actually). Plays loud and clear. Don't think it was underrated mate, spent three weeks on the top of the Billboard R&B Chart while climbing to #5 in the Hot 100. It sold over one million copies, and received gold disc recognition.. is it styrene or Vinyl? Mal.C.

Dunno what people think, But its seems to have got really hard recently dealing with over seas clients, especially new ones, had a guy in oz yesterday charge me $9 Aud for security, IE if you send from OZ you now have to pay 9 dollars to have a security check, I obviously challenged him on this cause I buy Oz releases all the time and no one else does this... anyhow I stood down because I had to have have it and paid the buggar.. fool me, but that Outsiders demo on Aussie capitol with date stamp kept on winking at me... the info on the gift payment was very interesting, and regards acetates kids, buy from trusted dealers as Manship says.. and first time over seas sellers posting on here, guys try to list stuff in pounds, and dont bother with funk records... finally ebay, well there are some frightening listings, great records some at silly buy it now prices, the oil painting is just a joke, but there are some good guys out there still, i do think allot are skimming on post though... As for messers Moss, Devon, Smith, fun though it is I'm now bored of the thread within a thread, pack it in kids... Mal.C

Fabulous way to spend half an hour; highlights the one great thing about all collecting music, You will always learn and hear something new no matter how long you have been doing it... Mal.C.

blimey i paid $10 usd for mine, I though I was asking allot for the amount i charged you paul... you did give me a deal on that tears on my pillow, so happy ending... I'll keep me eye out see if i can locate another!! mal.C

Shellys, Lazer Dome on a Friday was run by a mate of mine, Martin Red, and was frequented in the main by the Midlands crowd, Saturday night was a Manchester night... which I assume would be the night you went up? Just pulled out Landlord, Physco Team, Acts of Madmen, Plez or Mars Bar as we used to call it....Doug Lazy... Some brilliant music got released in those few short years, come 92 I'd had enough and back onto northern I went... still need Reese - Rock to the Beat.. M

.,

Here's one that crosses both scenes, The West Coast Distributors - Girl I love you, call it what the F*** you like, ITS BRILLIANT, period...Flip of Mixed Emotions - Gold of My Life is good and all, 'Can you Feel the Funk' and Eddie Bo - Whatch Gonna Do / Seven B is another Killer... check the girly backing on this, its dripping something... Some others that need mentioning, Nu Sound Express - Ain't It Good Enough For You The Interpretations - Jason Pew Mosso, for the beginning where he introduces himself, and the classic Roy Ayers - Running Away, Fred Wesley & The JB's - Blow Your Head.. I'd love a night where I could hear all the best Northern, all of the above finished of with this lot.. Meat Beat Manifesto - Radio Babylon Black Science Orchestra New jersey deep Force Legato - System Renegade Soundwave - Thunder Liaisons D - Future F.J.P. Pret A Porter - Mystere De L'Amour Robin Wants Revenge - Robin Wants Revenge New Scene - Out Of Control Dirty Mind - The Killer Man Machine - Denkimi-Shakuhachi Masters of the Universe- Space Talk CHRIS REA "Josephine" Izit - Stories Kamera - Back In The Time Forgemasters -Track With No Name Ten City all of em... Mory Kante - Yeke Yeke Wood Allen - Airport 89 and every great track Renegade Soundwave ever made!! WHEY HEY!!! M

Funks a strange Genre, before I got to know the Sydney soul sisters, and their Friday night show in the 2004, specifically Miss Goldie, i'd have pretty much said I hate Funk, and the type of Funk that I assumed would be the staple of that scene, I still feel the same way about...that said I was lucky to hear records like the below which are up there in my top 50 and all that.. If I hear any of the following at a do, which is unlikely... "I'll get back with you, I'm DIRECT to the Dane floor!!!" Rhythm Machine / Rodan, Frankie And The Damons - Bad Woman, The L.A Carnival - Blind Man, Eunice Collins - At The Hotel Third Flight - Third Flight, The Caprells with The Sul Brothers Band - Close Your Eyes, The Ascots - The Graveyard Creep Della Reese - It Was a very Good Year, Eugene Blacknell & The Savonics - Jump Back, James Reese & The Progressions - Let's Go (It's Summertime), Rev Jamel & Bob Johnson - Did you See Those Men Billy Wade & The 3rd Degrees - Tear it up Its all GOOD!! Mal.C.

I've seen em allot cheaper than that, and I paid around £40 sterlinng for a VG++ copy not 6 months ago... I know I'm always saying allot are cheaper, but they are if you look.... I just cant ever be a John Manship type customer.. Mal.C

there are two Mixes, or releases of this 45 btw, one with persuasion one without, without is worth more supposedly...I'd say 50-80 on the more common mix tuther, dunno 100-120, something like that.. you can see the scans and difference on Dave Flynn's web site.. https://capitolsoulclub.homestead.com/rarescans1.html Mal.C.
