Ian Levine, Motorcity, Centre City, Blackpool Mecca, And Swons
The local HMV did not have it in, and having to fill in what seemed like an "immigration into the UK form" to get them to order one - I went the Amazon route. Should have it tomorow.

A very nice record.

Tommy Tate
No it's not one of them. It's a legit Frankford Wayne pressed 45 from 1976/77. It's also a totally different mix with more prominet guitars, and a few seconds longer Same both sides. Steve

It's another copy Gavin I think. Think there are two and maybe a third one.

It's extremely rare. I have one, but it's one that is difficult to price as mainly only Tate afficionados and vinyl maniacs that would shell out for a copy. In todays world it might not fetch that much. Different mix too remember Chalky.

Biggest, Bestest Etc. Why?
You started early this evening fella? Yeah Burnley - not over me head, but over my mileage allowance : - especially on a Friday - I like my 70s too as you know.

Set Times
Yep what I am saying Joan is for a 2 h set a DJ would need to play a variety of sound styles - not just one type of music, so some 70s as well as 60s. Agree if it's a single style some people would be turned off (like me and R&B ) and mix of tempos too - and old and new - I know it's all uptempo at the moment, but mix it up a bit that's all. Otherwise 1 hour tops.

Set Times
I'd say DJs that can play a variety of styles I'd say 90 mins sets, poss 2 hours at a niter would seem sensible. DJs that can only play one style - 30 minutes tops. Soul nights - 45-60 minutes - again depending on the variety of style of sounds that a DJ can spin. I mean personally if it was an R&B DJ I'd be bored after 5 minutes Also many soul nights have a limited time when they are really "active" and buzzing (3 hours) and thus mixing it up a bit more makes it more interesting. All in my humble opinion of course.

How Much The Pound Has Dropped
Very simple - investors think that the UK (and Europe to a degree) will be in a deeper and longer recession than the USA. Therefore they are transferring their assets into dollars (and selling £) creating a demand for $, which pushes up the value of the dollar. As I said the other day it's predicted to be down at 1.55 - 1.50 before long.

What Was That Original Of Ton Of Dynamite Called Please?
I think all of this makes sense Dave, though TOD was the "throwaway" B side from memory wasn't it? Wasn't "Confession of love" the A side? Sorry don't have the record in front of me at the moment Oh and Richard Marks did one of the best "Corners" records. Also there was "Cutting the corners" etc.

What Was That Original Of Ton Of Dynamite Called Please?
No "The Corners" was a dance craze Oh Fickled one, it was done to tighten up probably, but then we had the 4 corners, 8 corners, 16 corners etc. I have seen it performed . The dancers kind of move into the centre and then jiggle about and then go back to their corners. The funk boys on here will know more.
