revived Technics turntables
$4000 is a bit of a risk. The market they are aiming at then would be very niche and the developement and production costs must be pretty significant. Considering they left the market because of costs vs. money made I find it a bit bizarre to price the biggest majority of potential customers out of the market.

Larry Clinton "She's Wanted" ISSUE on JM Auction
I didn't know Rob had a red issue? Andy Dyson got one at Yarmouth time which isn't the one Searling had which Kev now has. So The ebay one would be the third or the fourth copy.

Larry Clinton "She's Wanted" ISSUE on JM Auction
I could well be wrong with died bit but something happened and all copies destroyed bar the three file copies. There is a previous topic somewhere on here where Andy Dyson tells what Eddie said, think it was to Kev when Kev showed him the issue. As for the third copy not sure it ever turned up.

Paying for your guest DJs?
Far too may promoters just promoting on a wing and a prayer, hoping they get enough in to cover costs. The guest Dj should be paid an agreed amount regardless whether the promoter makes a profit or not. Bout time half of them packed it in anyway. There is also far too many somcalled Dj's who will do it for nothing, just to get behind some decks and get their name on a flyer.

I bet the limited edition model is well over£1k. I bet normal model isnt far off a grand.

PAUL WILLIAMS
Another great performance on this... Seems he was trying to tell everyone something with some of the titles he took lead on

Bill Brandon - Space Age Lover
Richard has played the track recently on his radio show(s). Collecting records, like art is a personal thing, most collectors of any sort don't have their collections open to the public so why should records be any different. I like nothing better than to hear unissued material but can fully understand why collectors don't share. Oh and it is on one of the Stafford Story podcasts I did of Richards contribution to the venue.

Are you confident it's an original or a modern look-a-like
Far too many dealers out there who don't play it straight and wait till they get caught out by saying they were unaware themselves....yeah right. Unfortunately the record collecting market, like any other collecting market isn't one that can be done on a wing and a prayer, knowledge is a must and if you don't know then ASK no matter how trivial you think the question is. If something is too good to be true it usually is.

Soul Discovery Essential 25 Tracks for 2015
Some great selections which just goes to show decent music is still being made. Mick's show is a must listen for me and he does get behind the records and gives them a few weeks air play in some cases so they stay in your mind and not immediately forgotten. I've not heard this show yet so I'd better catch up. Happy New Year and many thanks Mick, keep up the good work

News: The Post Wigan Years - Northern Soul
For my sins I've decided to have a go at the book...as If I don't have enough in my life to keep me busy If you think a venue is worthy of inclusion shout up. Any memories, dates anything you feel; might be relevant let me have it. I'm also looking for flyers, and memorabilia. Scans 300dpi or a loan so I can scan and I will return. I am also looking for copies of the Echoes post 1980. Again a loan with promise of return after scanning. Full credit also given.

Providing we are talking about the same copy. But even so I've no wish to name any names till its proven one way or t'other

PAUL WILLIAMS
Everything he did was musical gold, phenomenal singer.

The Magnetics Ra-sel Boot
I agree whoever is selling them as originals should be named but not until the buyer has sought recompense. For all we know the seller could well be acting in good faith. Someone is on the case, see what comes out of it first. if the seller knew it was a bootleg then he is in some bother, morally and legally.

The Magnetics Ra-sel Boot
You can actually see all the MSI CO markings now its blown up I doubt its a vanity project. Whoever has done these playing a clever game IMO. Beaides it's gone past vanity as someone has paid good money for one just recently by the sounds of things.

The Magnetics Ra-sel Boot
Could be mate, I thought a 2 at first but it does look too curved for me, like an S but would imagine it being a number. Pretty sure it is the beginning of a C after the three numbers.
-
The Magnetics Ra-sel Boot
Looks like what could be 481 or 181 then what could be a C and maybe a faint something else unless it is the label

Playing prev unreleased out (Arctic)
I would have thought anything unreleased and on a legit release then fair game, play them out. I have played some of the recent M-pac/Onderful releases out "Take Me To Your Leader and the brilliant Otis Clay 45 that came with one of the LP releases.
