Too many think it is ok now Russ, that's why this topic keeps getting regurgitated. Out and about I bet there's less than 10% in a venue who actually care what format is being played.

Are you saying 2002 was first time out for the Mello Souls? And who played Margaret Little at the Ritz cause none of those listed had it first to my knowledge?

Most downloads now go beyond portable personal use. Many you wouldn't know they were compressed, it isn't audible to the human ear the compression. Not saying they are right though. Many downloads are totally legitimate, with royalties going to the right people. Again not saying this is an excuse to play them out.

There is no difference between a book and a t-shirt, permission is required to use anything where a copyright exists. Some obscure image from the 60's might prove impossible to locate the copyright owner.

Why it had a legit release on Kent/Horace labels?

I think you will find copyright applies to a photo, image on a sleeve, logo etc just like it does with a recording. Permission is required if you wish to use what someone else has produced. Copyright for a photo is applied as soon as the photo is taken and doesn't need to be registered. Copyright is owned by either the photographer or by the company the photographer is employed by. Whilst fair use will apply to publicity images that ae released for the press they might only be issued to one exclusive outlet and anyone using without permission could be in breach of copyright. There might be restrictions/copyright implications if the images are later reproduced? A simply google will give you everything you need to know.

I'll have to check if mine is distributed by Atlantic. I know it's a demo. Can't even remember if vinyl or styrene?

The flip "Luv'h" is great. One I've played out on and off for years. Cheap as well.

Man Oh Man brilliant Richard. Thanks for posting.

8 inch square? https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=8+inch+square+frames

It was me who said it was in a rut and you are right Northern Jordan and others like him could be a breath of fresh air but IMO they have to offer something other than what is on offer right now at many places and not fall into the buy it/play it because everyone else is scenario. Forget the trophy records, plenty already have and play them, they re becoming boring. As I said 100's of cheap records that are never given the light of the day because of the sheep mentality of many. Play a record because you like the record your self and would play it at home, not because it is a "safe" spin. Above all enjoy it. If you are simply going to do what others are already doing and offer the same, then what is the point?

Have you a playlist Terry? Not taking the p*ss or owt, genuinely interested.

If you fancy a listen to the Jones' from this mornings Solar radio show the link (supplied by Zane as always) is http://www46.zippysh...37534/file.html

It's all thanks to John Trewartha (John from Haverhill). He's the one who supplied them. I've a couple more to do yet when I get time, Keb at Leicester in 1985 and Dave T and Pat Brady at Stafford in what looks like 1983.

Last one for today... Adam again at Oddfellows from November 1984. https://www.mixcloud.com/Chalkster/adam-at-leicesters-nottingham-oddfellows-club-november-1984/

Two more recordings this time from Leicester's Nottingham Oddfellows Club. The first features Adam all the way through (I think). The second Adam, then I think it is Tony Clayton briefly and Keb Darge. Once again many thanks to John Trewartha (John from Haverhill) for this recording. https://www.mixcloud.com/Chalkster/leicesters-nottingham-oddfellows-1984-adam/ https://www.mixcloud.com/Chalkster/leicesters-nottingham-oddfellows-1984-adam-vicar-and-keb/

Brilliant story barry put a smile on me face after a trek round Tescos!!

I don't think Andy's diggin' book will be out this year, I think stories are still coming in and waiting on others who have promising tales of crate diggin'. Sure Andy or Nicola will give you more details when and if they read this.

They are probably from the original UK release which is totally legit

Really good recordings Barry. Many straight from the systems, one or two taken near the speakers. I've some of Keb and Adam from Leicester later. If anyone has any more live recordings from Stafford or Leicester I would love to listen?

Been given some great live recordins by John Trewartha. He was better known as John from Haverhill so hopefully some of you will remember him? Anyway the quality is great for these recordings from Stafford and Leicester (Oddfellows). The first couple are Gary Rusbbrooke and Dave Evison at Stafford. https://www.mixcloud.com/Chalkster/gary-rushbrooke-live-at-stafford/ https://www.mixcloud.com/Chalkster/gary-rushbrooke-and-dave-evison-at-stafford/
