I’m just not hearing that. I’m hearing “don’t let me play the card no more”. I think the isolation of the vocal proves with little doubt that the word in question starts with the letter c. My best mate and long term soul pal is adamant it’s ‘part’. I respect his view, I’m just puzzled we seem to be hearing different things?

Fill in the blank. I thought this part, but can’t be? Can’t be ‘see you next Tuesday’ either, though that’s what it sounds like. Anyway my mate seems to have won the argument, I think.🤔

Beware scammer
That was definitely a flag. As was when I called him and he mysteriously couldn’t take my call. Moreover no mention of postage costs at any stage, which makes sense as it’s never going to be sent. His Facebook page told a story, exactly the same as the last scammer, a few YouTube soul related clips with zero likes or comments. A profile picture updated the day before and scrolling down, no real depth of history on the page. This is the blueprint of a scammer and makes them fairy easy to spot. One thing that would make life easier is if people wouldn’t just accept friend requests from these random wrongun chancers.

Exactly right, I didn’t notice it at first. On closer inspection, mentioned on VV (Vinyl Vigilante FB page) Brass neck of these chancers!

Wants vetting protocol
Following on from the recent wave of scammers, I was moaning to my wife there should be tighter regulations on joining some of these Wants groups on social media. I said to my Mrs “what are some questions that only proper NS scene people would know”? Her reply; “There’s a Soul Source thread there”.🙂 Here’s a few we came up with. Bit of fun. All suggestions/questions welcome. 1. Why is Johnny Fingers called Johnny Fingers? 2. Is it acceptable at a venue to abruptly end a conversation and take to the dance floor? 3. Name 3 iconic nighter venues of the 1970’s. 4. What is Soul Sam’s real name? 5. Name three of the rarest soul 45’s of all time. Toughie as these slippery chancers could probably still answer some of those from digging around on line. So let’s hear some questions that only we would know! 👍

That’s a good idea. Although it’s clear to us what his game is, I wonder if it’s sufficient evidence for the likes of PayPal?

R.I.P Tony Middleton
We had the pleasure of meeting Tony in New York a few years back, we went to see him perform with his trio and they were great. After the performance we were chatting and I told him he had helped my marriage, as when me and our lass were courting, I’d sing Paris Blues in the shower to woo her lol. “Paris Blues, follow me each place I go”.. He seemed momentarily taken aback by my impromptu outburst, but smiled and I think he knew we held him in high esteem. What a guy and what a true soul giant he was.

Beware scammer
I reckon he is in Keighley. Bearing in mind his email westfieldbeds@gmail.com gov.uk lists the company hq in Keighley with a Czech Director. My mate Steve lives there and was gonna pop in and ask if Tom or Stan were about, lol.

Beware scammer
He first came to light last Tuesday 23rd when he messaged me saying he had a £300 want I was after. His Facebook profile history seemed to be three days old which I found strange. I messaged the four mutual friends, none of whom knew him. He messaged again requesting friends & family payment on PayPal to his email - westfieldbeds@gmail.com As his profile stated he was ‘Cheif Administrative Officer’ for Bromley Council, this was the last straw and I suspected he was a scammer. That and only two people I know with Little John - Heart Breakin Time were two people, neither of whom wanted to sell. Then along comes this guy? His profile pic looks like he was the right age for Wigan, sat on his Royal Alloy. As he’d requested lots of our people as friends, this shored up his F&F requests and on Monday night he fleeced a Belgian collector for six hundred quid. 😠

After an issue of Heart Breakin’ Time on MARTAY - VG+ or better. Thanks.- MELLO SOULS - YAWN!!!!
Ah right, thought Kitch had multiple copies at one time but may have been mistaken. Remember reading about someone stumbling across a copy in the States at a record fair or sim. Unsure of condition, but think that copy went to auction?- MELLO SOULS - YAWN!!!!
Think it was Kitch that had 3 copies at one time. Always remember Shane saying the vocal sounded like Al Jolson (lol) when we first started discussing this fine record many moons ago. Lastly I think a previous thread in the box section of this fine site, has an acapella version where someone, possibly Simon has isolated the vocals. That gets the hairs on the back of your neck going I can tell yer. - Little John - Heart Breakin’ Time
