Max & The Flaps.

Thanks for posting - looks like a signed copy too. Maybe she autographed it for a fan when she appeared at the now sadly missed "Pidgeon-shufflers and Neckenders" Niter?

Neil will you be bringing any copies down to Newquay with you? - If so please save me one. Thanks

I do think the threadstarter is being a mischief and on un grand wind up. Yesterday it was "Why do no DJs carry '6x6' in their box anymore?" and today it's "Duffy". His next thread will be "Is it ok to play pressings in a club?". That will be followed by "I can still fit into my Spencers baggies - should i wear them out?

A sweet little pop record, but what the f*ck has it got to do with northern soul then? WHy would you even want to hear it when there are so many better records, unless of course you are a complete divvie or a wind up merchant.....

Try Crazy Beat if SImply Soul sold out.

Thanks Jason, I got one last night thanks to a member on here. Good call for anyone else that needs one though.

Oh so it did come in. I thought it might have got held up in customs or something. Thanks for confirming.

Yes I am afraid that looks to be the only option. Steve

Has anyone seen the Charles Bradley 45 that was supposed to come across for this years record shop day? I've got the Fame box, the Carter 45 EP, both nice, and the 12 (Gregory Porter 1960 what?), but no sign of the Charles Bradley 45?.

This is a brilliant record! Mine is No 497 / 500 Be quick.

Yes agreed. The idea of shops not knowing if they'll get a copy of something or not is ridiculous. We don't have a local record shop anyway.

Very nice Dave.

I think the Blackbeats are too cheap :lol:

I have a Tom Moulton acetate mix of the PDs singing "One thing on my mind" it's an excellent production.

Yes but Monarch also did originals, as Pete says it's all in the number. ANything in the 90,000s or 100,000s is from the mid 70s.

Boot from 77.

That's five too many!

I also have this. It's a vanity record, that clearly didn't sell or get distributed by Chess. For a long time it was the rarest of the 60s Chess soul 45s, which is why the discographies have the name wrong. Both sides are pretty cool I think. How many copies have turned up?

There were all 99p once

Simon I got one some years ago on the Isle of Wight of all places, gold label with his picture on? How do you tell the difference with a second press or is it just a straight identical repress? PS: Steve C - you'll like it I'm sure.

Is this the one Ian Levine says is impossible to find?

Don't mention the Post Office. We ceased having a sensible postal service in the Waltham Cross area some years ago. Since then it's been at best erratic, some days we get deliveries some days we don't. Registereds are delivered after deadline with times put on forms before deadlines etc. The Management responsible for this debacle should be sacked for incompetence.

I don't understand all this "sorry folks but..." stuff - why don't you guys just tell the moaners to get stuffed if they don't like your policy? Hold yer heads up and stick to your principles etc.? So glad I am not on the oldies scene, sounds like a right 'bitchfest' in some areas.
