New releases 2020
Have I said it isn’t ok? Buy what you like. I was simply questioning the logic behind how it was released and the price. It’ll no doubt sell out but I wouldn’t pay that sort of money, for the cd nor the download, for something that is pretty average. It won’t be the quality that sells it either, it is people buying it cause there is only 50, thinking they have a rarity and will be worth more than they pay. It won't be because of the music. original form? What makes the cd more original than the download? Both released simultaneously, both play through the same speakers etc, 🙄

Gladys Knight - If You Ever Get Your Hands On Love
There is no evidence of soul flip records on a company check, if it is legal they are under a different name but I somehow doubt it . Nothing on the label to say licensed etc and there usually is

Gladys Knight - If You Ever Get Your Hands On Love
Looks a different set up to what I was thinking but still don't think they are legit. Probably some copyright infringement with the logo too. We did discuss them a while back.

Its a boot, those who were jailed I believe behind it play the cd or the box set one, anything else a boot

Record thefts whilst djing
They were accidentally picked up by another DJ I think, he found them in his bag and text Eddie to say he had them. All will be returned that is all that matters.

Eddie has posted on Facebook that his records have been found.

Chuck Jackson- Ain't no sun since you've been gone
LP only except for the odd foreign (Argentinian release). The Lp should be reasonable priced still.

Record thefts whilst djing
This scene is far too trusting, it is by and large very friendly but it attracts people from all walks of life and just like the real world its share of scumbags. There is a lot of shit that happens which a lot are unaware of and ignorant too, usually because they focus solely on the social aspect. But when you Dj, promote or have any involvement that goes further than simply turning up, having a dance and going home you get exposed to it and it isn't always pleasurable. Just about every Dj opens his or her box and trust those around them to not pinch anything but as Kev says there are opportunists about and given the chance they will be in. Juts about every Dj leaves there records under a table behind the decks, if you have a few Djs there is an awful lot of money up there and promoters need to up security now.

Entry costs are far too cheap as it is, go to any other club scene and you pay far more. I'd sooner pay extra for a venue that isn't a flea pit, is comfortable and safe.

The Dj area, decks etc should be a no go area nowadays. I know the majority are no threat but there is and always have been one or two who will rob their granny given the chance. Sadly they will spoil it for all.

Pep had a handful taken from his box recently, Kitch had one lifted. Security for Djs is often non-existent but given the cost of the records often behind the decks it should be a priority.

What is the best Northern Soul price guide
popsike are auction prices and probably the last indicator I would use. Discogs are actual sales and you can see the history so more relevant. Actual lists and the shop floor the best indicator of prices

And still taking the credit for what he shouldn’t be

The Shakers
How can it be a reissue if never issued in the UK? It may have been done for the scene but it is still a first UK issue.

BBC 1 Omnibus 1978 Northern Soul Clip
It wasn’t BBC but Granada TV. Where are the Granada archives now? I would also imagine Palmer has all the footage too and not sure why he didn’t use it on the video release.

BBC 1 Omnibus 1978 Northern Soul Clip
Tony Palmer owns This England I believe. He put the film out on video few years ago. There was no out takes on it though?

BBC 1 Inside Out - Wigan Casino Segment 10 Feb 2020
He never owned it. Soussan sent acetates over. Les McCutcheon Bought Simon’s collection which included DILY. It was then sold to Jonathon who sold it to Kev who I believe then sold it to Tim. The copy in the clip last night looks like an emi/acetate/carver with a photocopied label.
