1997 Cleggy

They have all been pretty good what I have attended in Chesterfield, people respectful of others etc.

They are held outside, usually markets. Suppose you have to use some common and socially distance best you can, wear a mask it you wish and sanitise…..if it bothers someone, stop in

Its no longer about the music for many, its trophy collecting and ego massaging I don’t think a blue issue is worth £3k but them again I’m no fool who is easily parted from his money.

I was gob smacked when it reached 1500 not so long ago. These prices are just sheer lunacy and no amount of worldwide market bollox can convince me otherwise.

I cannot remember Mike, it may be under a different title but was about the closure of the scenes venues late 70s early 80s

There was a topic about the closure of The Mecca I started but I can’t find it. Any MODs help?

Its the first time one has sat still long enough and no bloody decent lens 🙄

Only had a landscape lens on the camera today so had to take this with the phone, my first Dipper sighting this year.

I’ve looked high and low, no where in this country anymore.

a bit 🤪

He co-wrote both sides to begin with He wasn't the lead singer of The Inspirations as claimed in the other topic either

Personally I would assume Mala came second. Have you thought of asking Gino, is he still around?

I would have thought one of the Atac was released locally first with Mala picking it up for national distrubution?

This one by Freedom Affair from the Lp is just superb, you need to listen all the way through....

Been some fantastic releases so far this year, the Freedom Affair is brilliant, the whole Lp.

Unfortunately there is no UK source for the book from what I can see and it is expensive for less than 200 pages. The kindle version looks more appealing at £11

During various moves and a divorce I seem to have lost a few anniversary badges. I've managed to gain a few but can anyone help me fill the gaps please. I am after the following anniversary badges 1,2,3,4,7 & 8

Saus still has it too

Rick James, Rare Earth..Top 100 Motown, really? Some great selections, some not so.

I think "Do What you Gotta Do" is the best soul record the Tops did but ask 100 people and you'll probably get 100 different answers, the same with the the top 100 Motown, count you would get two answers then same.
