If Only I Still Had
There's dude's on here who'll tell you of hundreds of sounds they've let slip through their fingers. I prefer collecting rather than trading. Trading gives me the fear, as records I have parted with have always either gone massive, shot up in value, or both. Then the thing is which ones do you really miss cos they were good records, or are you just miffed as the price has rocketed? Keeping it to a few (as I say there's always loads) recent departures include; Rosebuds - Say you'll be mine (TOWER) Ringleaders - Baby what has happened to our love (M-PAC) Pat & the Blenders - Just because (FAST EDDIE) Futures - Part time party time (PIR) Ace Spectrum - Don't send nobody else (ATLANTIC) Most miffed about Pat & the Blenders as it's a good record. It was the one with the rare b side and, wait for this... I gave it away! Second has to be the Ringleaders cos I sold it for £15 just before it went huge. Others less bothered about, least of all the Rosebuds as it's w*nk imho. So if you swapped the Cairos for a bag of marbles, I wanna hear about it fools! Hey and maybe a few others eh?

Broken Records Through The Post
Swapped a copy of Let me be your boy - Wilson Pickett VERVE for the Valadiers - I found a girl GORDY. Postman managed to snap it forcing it through the letterbox. I say snap, more of a break on one side, so sellotape on the b side and A side still plays with only slight click on first few spins. So a happy ending story on this thread Plus I replaced the Wilson Pickett from Manship £25, which was nice

The Best Retro Soul Song Ever
Wrong side of town is the one that sounds like it was recorded in the 70's. I must confess to liking Phats & Small - Turn around. Sounds like a modern masterpiece IMO

Baby Love
Remember hearing the Pyramid at St Ives, blew me away. They played it a couple of times that night. I remember going through my dad's Brook Benton LP's the next day for a version or bizzare cover up scenario. Eventually got it on tape from Manship, then dare I say the dodgy Golden Eye pressing. Will get round to owning an original some day, some how

No Angels - Lots Of Northern
- Weekend Playlists please
Top selections We'll be there, front and centre. Looking forward- Stepping Out Of The Picture
Mystery over. The original issue is the version with said wailing towards the end. CD track, Kent LP version and Stardust pressing are different without the (better imo) crescendo ending. Now all I got to do is find and afford an original. Ah, this northern soul lark eh?- Stepping Out Of The Picture
Enough with the whaling jibes! Wouldn't say they are that different, but as you correctly say its towards the end the extra WAILING ( ) happens. Info on this should not be scarce as it's been played quite a bit.- Stepping Out Of The Picture
nu what? By the way, this was played last week at the ill faited rocket allnighter. Has been spun b4 at the 100 Club also. Thought Ady was gonna spill the beans earlier, but alas- Stepping Out Of The Picture
Still none the wiser- Stepping Out Of The Picture
Sorry wailing. What's the CD Chris? And is it the different version? Are you able to post sound file? - Weekend Playlists please
