Chalky

Sold for 550 last year on Facebook

Same record on Wilkerr on a 12 although Butch has a very rare 7.

Covered by Richard as Lee Moore and the Resourceful Ones at Wigan, 1981 maybe little earlier.

Don't forget Bury where Saah Jane and Calvin are residents. Three rooms to suit all tastes.

no I know they weren't but I bet there was many more than 5% tanked up before hitting the nighter

To say beer was never a factor is wrong. I know it wasn’t sold at the niter bit many got oiled up on the way or at a soul night prior to moving on to the niter.

And Dave got it via Rod who replied above. They came on a tape from Robb K.

No mate, I will try again.

Charlie Rich? 100 Club and was released on an Lp in the 80s.

To say vinyl has had its day is just plain ridiculous. Deman has never been so high and the same for the prices. There has never been so many events and certainly never been so many Djs. Vinyl is here for some time yet. All events use and highlight tne Dj to promote that event. A Dj is booked for what he has to offer, real or not, yes some are you scratch my back etc. It is a scene that revolves (no pun intended) around a piece of vinyl, not a laptop or mp3 Once upon a time the Djs weren’t named as the music was first and foremost, not anymore. Until that changes and the names become secondary or irrelevant then vinyl will remain.

The Peaky Blinders style flat cap is known as The Baker’s Boy.

It ahs just about always been about rarity and still is. If a record was considered common it was largely ignored. It was always about exclusivity. I know of records being played off acetates/emis/carvers, call them what younwish, in the 80s because the record was somrare, one only in some cases and in the hands of a collector. He gave permission to have a copy cut. You would never have heard it otherwise. That isn’t the case today with most of the records in hands of Djs and rarity not the issue it was once upon a time.

All good mate. I would be better if I wasn’t working 🙄😕 Richard is positive he played it at Wigan.

But we are ‘t attending a party or wedding where the Dj and the format are pretty much irrelevant. We are a scene based on the Dj and what they have to offer. Until the Dj becomes irrelevant then the format should and will take centre stage.

OVO is a load of bollox I agree. It is another pointless term on a scene full of pigeon holes. BUT if I am travelling and paying good money to get into a venue the last thing I expect is Billy bootleg deceiving the paying customer. If someone wishes to play boots then so be it but advertise the fact then those who are paying get a choice whether to support or not.

Knew it had been discussed before, great article by Dave Thorley here

Macon in Georgia owned by Hampton Swain. There is a Grapevine CD of the material, or some of it available from selected sellers.

It was 81 when they turned up. Suspicion etc first got aired in the backroom of a SASofGB niter in Manchester, October that year. Stafford when they were unleased fully by Dave. Must have been late on at Wigan when LSH got played by Richard.

Bootleg design on vinyl...

There is an original on styrene of that design if memory serves, boot is vinyl?

Been 80-120 for a long time. Loads of copies about.

I have a copy of Huriah Boynton take

Its a well know oldies now surely. Gary Rushbrooke spin, may have been back end of Wigan, certainly early 80s post wigan, Stafford, Oddfellows etc. Would never have been played in Mr M’s as it wasn’t an oldie then and totally wrong kinda record.

Why do you need wave files? Surely if playing a digital format mp3 will suffice?

I'm not one of those who believe because it is on the internet it must be true but this comment was from someone who had no involvement, one who simply bought the record, he had no claims about his involvement to make.
