  1. Sorry only just noticed this Joe, don't think it's rare, will check through my Prelude stuff and let you know. ATB Steve
  2. Thanks for clarifying Dave. And Rod I wasn't joking about the Baby Dolls - I bought one on the strength of Richard's plays in 77. Embarrasing as that seems now.....
  3. McGees = Chooon
  4. The Baby dolls "Got to get you into my life" on Hollywood - played for 2 weeks by Richard in 77 :
  5. I don't think it was played at WIgan. Can't be 100% but would have heard by now if it was.
  6. Think Dave Halsall on here may know the story as he met AJB on a cruise ship.
  7. RIP Ernest. I remember speaking to him in 1982 when we did the feature in Blackbeat on all the artists he was working with (4th day< Emmanuel Lasky, Magnificents etc.). He was a lovely guy.
  8. Must admit it wasn't until a couple of years ago that I flipped it over. The top side was an old crossover choon from years ago, but I like the B side best now So well done to Chalky for spinning it.
  9. Winnie I think they are saying that some DJs and others stayed away on purpose and rich wanted to hear why. But no one has responded. That's how I read it.
  10. Yes but don't you end up with 200 people saying they'll come and they're up for it. As you said at the beginning, that's no sign that they'll actually pitch up. Isn't that what you said happened on FB? And what's more I'm convinced that the vast majority don't want to hear anything different. Same ole' same ole' and the same all over I am sorry to say. People wanting to hear different stuff are in a minority, judging by attendances most places. Steve
  11. A fabulous record Ted, why are you selling it?
  12. Yep about 84. I Djed at all those, and was on straight after the bomb scare. Boy was there an atmosphere when everyone came back in. What a shame the promotor legged it before paying most of the DJs on more than one occasion....even got one DJ to help jump start his car, then legged it, didn't even pay him! Tossbag. Some of us made sure we got paid before we went on after that.
  13. I casn play it down the file to you, but that's as far as my technology goes. it was a Crossover track on Atco so maybe the same thing. Atco pulled the issue for some reason. Steve
  14. I posted about a year or two about this Rod, but it seems to me the vast majority of people seem to stagnate musically in their early 20s, whether it be soul, rock, whatever music. Witness the numbers that will block all the roads around Twickenham for hours because they want to go to a Phil Collins or Status Quo concert. Or how many 30 somethings will fight each other for a ticket to see a "Take That" reunion. No different in soul from what I can see, there are those that like to hear something new, and a far greater number who's receptors for hearing something fresh fell off many years ago.
  15. What's the story on this? Dave Box keeps asking me if I'll cut him a copy. ATB Steve
  16. Great for Rod & Sally to try this in Bournemouth, but as others have said just don't seem that there's enough folk into "rare and underplayed" for a Niter down there. Exactly the same round these parts where we've run gigs til 4 am (but no Niters). Put on a rare and underplayed night and you get 70 in, mostly travellers. Put on an oldies night and the locals all come out the woodwork for a knees up. But then again personally I wouldn't go to a pure olides all nighter if it was across the road from me gaff. Two very distinct scenes these days, some shared musical interest, but that's about it.
  17. Bought mine from SouL Sam about 15 years ago when he was clearing a few things out, so he trumps everyone so far. Stafford era possibly?
  18. good one Sebastian
  19. Excellent article and a great piece of northern. Thanks for posting.
  20. Looks like two bidders put in a ridiculously high bid to secure. Third bidder $75 and even that looks high for what I always rated as a £5 record. Is it in demand again or something?
  21. I wasn't referencing popsike as a pricing point, merely noting that copies of False Alarm appear with far less frequency than other Volcano's titles. At the end of the day for all the bleating on here, the price at auction is the slightly higher value that at least two people have placed on an item. Nothing more nothing less. I also think pricing is becoming far less predictable. Some gems don't make what you think, others go way over what you think is a reasonable price. And a lot of stuff you can't sell at all.
