Eddie Floyd - Things get better - STAX .. On No.8 Ten dollars! Ged in!!!

I agree mrdarcy. Would you say the same of 'The Night'? And has/where has 'Beggin' been played?

Boss is out this pm, so it's Mark Lamarr's Alternative Sixties!

£530 GBP EX++ 21/1/07.

I paid £220 for a record that usually goes for £400 as a minter. Record was described as cracked. Turned out to be edge chip. So I dunno, £250? £275ish???

Dr Truelove? I just can't help myself, when it comes to vinyl procurement. Have to play them though.

Any chance of a soundfile?

I'm sure there's a yellow label boot with red text.

Sure it was mentioned before. One (or more) of those dancers are also SS'rs..

Popsike gawn again. Reckon 400 good price for a minter. Though obv vg plusser's less. Got a near mint copy with a tiny edge chip for 220. Pays to look about..

Ah right, cheers. Thought I'd posted in there for a minute, but it was Dukester (he of the great avatar)! I posted this yesterday morning in the 'strange places to hear' thread. Also Rach had been listening to the Timebox version, which I had a little listen to again yesterday and is the version I think. As stated, remains to be seen whether they will do any more.

No just this Pilooski chap and his 'euphoric fusion of emotional Northern soul stomper and end-of-the-night, hands-in-the-air rave moment' - subject of, type deal really..

yeah this topic! I won't say dude..

Yeah!? Wow .. Didn't think he'd done a terrible job of it all things considered..

What been discussed somewhere?

(From above link) "Italian American crooner has made some storming white soul records that over the last 30 years have been leapt on by the Northern soul and disco undergrounds. Klaxons are even covering his Wigan casino anthem The Night to be their next b-side. So it doesn't take a massive leap of faith to see one of his tracks being resurrected and hammered by DJs like Laurent Garnier and Erol Alkan".

Has this been discussed before? Wondered why they had been playing this on the radio recently. Came across this piece; Frankie Valli Beggin' (Pilooski Edit) Video Beggin' will be released on July 2nd 2007. It's a track, a tune that, re-edited by Parisian DJ Pilooski on one of his ultra-limited Dirty Edits 12"s on his own Dark & Lovely label, became a euphoric fusion of emotional Northern soul stomper and end-of-the-night, hands-in-the-air rave moment. - full article - Frankie Valli /The Four Seasons - Beggin' (Pilooski re-edit)

# 4 my fave. Now thats what I call feedback!

Me to. Bit of a worry. Also dunno if anyone else has noticed, but seem to be getting the message below from SoulClub a lot more than usual.

Johnny Vaughn again on Capitol this morning talking of "Northern Soul, windows down". "Bit of talc on the floor".. Then played Frankie Valli - Beggin' as he did last week. Then after the track finishes he remarks that 'The Northern Soul Story' is one to listen to, mentions the Fascinations, Dobie Gray and Al Wilson. Upon which they all start singing the Snake!

Yep nice smell of armpit Saturday night. Had to go and have a fag to get away from the smell!

Think you were right with the compilation album purchases, back then (or should I say back in the day)! Guess we bought a mixture of boots and (reasonably priced) originals back then. Of course a lot more originals were more reasonably priced then. Hey you know this is a veiled debate on boots v orig's ...?

Furry muff. At seventeen I didn't really know about the Magnetics on Bonnie etc and "1.50 worn" from Rob Smith looked like a wise option...
