Fave British Northern Tunes
Aren't the Anglos from the US, although Incense had 3 british releases (Island, Brit and Fontana) there was also the fantastic 'Since You've Been Gone (Scepter). Other goodies - Lulu - Nothing Left To Do Than Cry (get beat ballad better than Elkie on her UK EP) Ronnie Hall - I'm Going Nowhere (Fontana) The Chants - Sweetest Feeling/Candy (RCA - under rated double sider) J J Jackson - Come See Me (Strike)

Poll - Dionne Or Dee Dee?
Dee Dee for me, although her material is less consistent, who could compete with Bacharach/David, she definately has a more soulful vocal. Top tracks: We're Doing Fine Alfie (best version - actually recorded in the UK) Don't Give Up On Us Worth Every Tear I Cry Do It With All My Heart Quality!!

Dusty Springfield Tonight @ 10.45 On Itv1
Rich, don't know if you're being funny? But I know it was aimed at the general public, just thought that it was a bit rushed, and although I'm not a fan of Dusty's later stuff, 70's, 80's, & 90's seemed to be overlooked. That's all. Halfwitted, I don't think I;m that bad!

Dusty Springfield Tonight @ 10.45 On Itv1
This was a wasted opportunity, but it would be difficult to do her justice in an hour. On the plus side, some great unseen clips, great to see Baby Washington, she looked fantastic, didn't even realise that Dusty had recorded 'Doodlin'! They should have interviewed Vicki Wickham for longer and what about interviewing Madeline Bell, Kiki Dee and some of the backroom staff at Philips involved with her productions. Clips with Jerry Wexler and co were also good.

Ferret, pm'd you. TTM- Help ! Dee Dee Warwick Wanted
I was wrong actually came out in 1973: Mercury 73397 - All the Love That Went To Waste / I Haven't Got Anything Better To Do* - 1973- Help ! Dee Dee Warwick Wanted
Actually titled 'I Haven't Got Anything Better To Do' Great slow ballad, but I think it's only LP or you can get it on The Mercury/Blue Rock Sessions CD.- Jerms - I'm A Teardrop (honor Brigade)
Thanks for all your replies, my mate now has one or even two!- Jerms - I'm A Teardrop (honor Brigade)
Looking for this for a friend. Thanks TTM- Ever Been Thrown Out Of A Record Store ?
Got thrown out of 'Record & Tape Exchange' in Notting Hill Gate, in about 1981, in the vinyl collectors area, they accused me of changing the labels on a couple of UK Motown LP's ,which was ironic because for a change I had a pocketful of money (I'd just got my grant cheque!). Never understood their policy that you had to have a degree to work there! So some w*****r who's got an economics degree is telling me I would bother to change labels on a couple of Supremes LPs's that cost a couple of quid each!!!- Let's Hear It For The Guitarist
In no particular order: Curtis Mayfield Robert White (for every great detroit Motown track, probably the greatest for output alone) Steve Cropper- Is This Any Good
Pete Can you put it here correct speed, and then are you interested in selling it?- Repro's & Re - Issues.. Who Gets The Money?
Simply because the bootleggers think there is a demand, and ABC (Universal) won't license the tracks cheaply enough to make it variable. That still doesn't make it right!- Let's Hear It For The Drummer
Most probably Maurice White, later of Earth Wind & Fire, he being part of the Chess house band.- Repro's & Re - Issues.. Who Gets The Money?
I think Ady is spot on here, although many records claim to be licensed officially, they are not! In many cases it's not the groups members or solo artists who own the copyright( despite the fact they think they do!), but whom ever owns the catalogue of a particular record label or publisher. This can also have the unfortunate effect that the artists do not receive any royalties because if they are unaware the copyright owner has licensed any particular titles. On the otherside, due to the length of time since the original product was licenced, current copyright owners have no contact details for the artists concerned.

Mark I've pm'd you. Just to clear this up, I was after the flipside, not 'Do The Cissy', and thought I could get one for about £20, as that's what it's valued in Manships guide. Thanks Tim- Do The Sissy - The Stingers - Stax
Whoops didn't realise it was a demo, although current Manship value is £20. Which is about what I'd pay.- Do The Sissy - The Stingers - Stax
Not that much of a bargain you sold one for a £10 a while back! https://www.northern-soul.com/modules/newbb...um=4&topic_id=7- Do The Sissy - The Stingers - Stax
Lost one on Ebay at £15, what do you think Mark? thanks TTM- Do The Sissy - The Stingers - Stax
Anybody go one of these to sale?? Thanks Tim - Uk Postage On Ebay
