I knew I knew that one. It's already planned for the next podcast Cheers.

I've sorted the cover up names for the list, I will update the list sometime today or tomorrow. Might jog some memories hopefully.

Unknown "As True As Can Be" This was covered up as the Seven Souls. Have just found it on a live recording and trying to remember what it is. Will upload somewhere this weekend if struggling.

No Kirsty, Pat can't remember without listening and as I have no soundfiles not sure I ever will unless someone who hasn't read this reads at a later date and it jogs their memory. I will keep plugging away at it though.

It's hard to put a price on it as it has rarely come up for sale and so few copies about. If Nev would tell us what he offered to get the auction taken off then you'd have a good idea of a starting price Ted also got one, off the same seller I think he said? As Nev said though a starting price of £3k at least. Demand is rising now that it is finally getting the recognition it deserves at nighters.

I used to find the charges and prices on Gemm were a bit too much. Discogs is fine but wait for the invoice before paying.

Has definitely interesting. The Little Ann singing "What Shall I Do" is amazing as is some of the Shrine stuff. Mind I will have to check the Shrine, that might be actually acapella.

There's a whole bunch of these supposedly acapella tracks on the Internet and as you say Mike they are the artists in the studio laying down their vocals. On many you can just hear the backing track they are listening/singing along to. It wasn't long, 64?, that Motown laid the vocals down after the backing was done so the vocalist were never in the studio at the same time as the musicians.

I will have a look to see if any later adverts Sean and upload, won't be till the weekend though. I did notice whilst going through the echoes from 1981 and early 1982 how few venues there was at times.

Ah but Pat was here there and everywhere back then, did he really play it at Clifton Hall first Only jesting mate and a pleasure.

this was posted on here at some point....

Sad news My sympathies and condolences to Frank's family and friends.

The "x" is probably done by the distributer, usually done to show which side the DJ plays. He probably went through a pile so maybe why the "x" in the same place or similar place.

£500 a good price, every price I've seen on a list or in a box have been between £300/£400. I prefer a price a dealer sells at rather than an auction price unless it is something that turns up once in a blue moon.

I'm good mate, likewise I trust. There's many a record ignored simply because the flock are chasing the same guaranteed floor-fillers and don't have the imagination (or balls) to stray from the flock. Play safe, stay safe and get another booking

3-400? Fantastic record still not really had its day.

Rita Lee nowhere near as good as Cressa.

Major Bill Smith had his ear to the ground as it was and apparently clued up to what was going off over here and would release and re release stuff to suit apparently.
