Simsy

no worries duck. Still a good thread, despite some of the hiccups!

Sian I see you posting as I type this - would you mind telling us where/who told you about the charity rumour? Cos it sure as shit weren't me!

Well said Ang. Though I wouldn't say Johnny was living above his means. He was living well within his means before his business partners put the skids under him. As for priorities, fighting to save your house & family is priority number 1. As has been the case here.

Fcukin A!

15 people hate it, but nearly a 100 more love it! Poll's, don'tcha just love em'?!

After losing some dear souls recently, this thread was truly in keeping with Christmas spirit. I know Johnny did shift big ticket items and his financial headaches were considerable. Thanks to Pete's efforts and this thread, the situation has eased. Maybe time to draw a line under things ? Shame to see negativity creep in to such a positive thread.

Yes, when I spoke to Johnny back at Stoke whenever that was, I spoke of a fundraiser perhaps to Teneriffe or Thailand, just to give him a bit of a break. Could think of no better ally than Pete S, being on the receiving end of Johnny's heartfelt kindness in the past and a man who folk listen to - Pete, you've done a superb job mate, really pleased! After some of the somber news we've had recently, for Pete to make this happen and save the family home of one of our nicest, kindest & most generous people, on Christmas (fookin) Eve !!!!!! Outstandingness all round !

This is fantastic Pete! We sent a contribution. So pleased this has come to fruition.

Larry Allen had that 20 year effect thing with me, always loved LIG though..

Pleased to see the way the vote is going. Was thinking of adding 'Prefer The Other Side' as an option, but this is about LIG. Surprised there weren't more 'own but not dance' votes? Very queer ...

Why don't you go to 'gallery' on here Nick - loads of flyers & artist stuff in there - print off until your hearts content!

That coffee table looks awfully familiar ...?

Bit of research - 'mutes' give it that distinctive horn sound, the killer mid tempo beat, the finger clicking, the breaks make this record so special (for me anyway).

Well impressed with that mate. Nah, just got in from work and was listening to it and I remembered how vehemently Karen Krane hated it and indeed actively sabotaged a request I put in with Carl Fortnum one night at the 100 Club.... Thought "I feel a Box poll coming on"

Furry muff They are horns - with the 'thingy's' over the end - hey the finger clicken coolness more than makes up for it though..

Under an hour gone, liking the results!

Two or three peeper. Tim Brown's copy, the one Kenny Burrell sold recently and supposedly one in the Motown museum, though there's no real evidence of that.

Apologies. Never my intention to offend. Content removed from original post.

Dang, I would have bought it from you. Posted this up a while back to rave revues. Cracking track!
