Thats the trouble with "us" though don't you think. We exist in our own little bubble and don't realise there is more to soul music than what is discussed on forums like this. There is no modern soul as such on our scene as most of it is 30 years or so old. How crossover or 70's can be considered modern is beyond me.

most events advertised as "Modern Soul" are anything but Modern. The most modern record at some of these events is often one recorded in the 70's, some might stretch to the 80's.

unless you went to Lifeline or where Andy Dyson was djing it would have been a while before you heard it. It was covered up by him for ages and then Mace got his mits on one.

Play nicely chaps, no wish to close another topic. Some healthy debate but any insults or OTT language not needed. I'm sure those involved can look after themselves but not everyone the same, some are a touch more sensative.

There is nothing good about this record, vocal or instrumental.

This is a wants topic, you should only be replying if you can help mattfox with his wants. If you want o discuss the merits of any particular record them start a topic in Look At Your Box.

Don't quote me but if someone is an insignifican part of a bigger picture, i.e. dancer on the dancefloor then you don't need their permission. If the person being photographed is the main subject then you might need permission but they can always object and you can remove it. Should be plenty of reading on google if you google permission needed when taking photos of people. I rarely bother with people when I take the camera out, just the acts.

If you were coming across as a jackass I'd let you know don't worry, I'm not afraid to say what I think as a few will testify. If you don't have both then ye matrix details are needed but side by side it is easy to spot. The picture in post 27 clearly shows the colour difference. Hope you haven't been done over.

For this particular release it is spelt "Delreys" they also recorded for American, another Florida label but spelt with an "A". Original Boot and the group......

you don't need the matrix, the pictures in post 27 clearly show the darker green being the boot, the olive green the real one. One in each hand and the difference smacks you round the chops. The boot even looks like a boot.

you can clearly tell by the label colour which is which.

You didn't get involved though, you simply criticised something as sh&te with no explanation.  If it had been constructive or with reason then there would have been no problem, that is what debate is about.

I'm not going to argue with you. You said just the first line of your response which to me is off topic and wasn't needed. You added the rest after I had replied.you post more off topic than anyone and like I said it is getting to be a pain. We've been in this situation before with past members, off topic is detrimental to the soul forums and puts other members off using the site. I've asked you politely via Pm and on site but still you have to have th last word....I'm not going to keep asking.

I didn't say you did say it did I? Now stick to the topic please, I'm not going to keep asking you to stay on topic, it is getting to be a pain repeating myself.

from what I can see all the information is in the full article and in the links provided. Your good at links so you should be able to mange to follow a couple.

I went to a lecture he was part of a couple of years ago, quite a few of us did, Jumping Joan, Charlie Rees, and I for one found it every interesting and had a good afternoon. They guy running this grew up with Northern Soul so he does know what he is talking about. If you are going to criticise then do so constructively and not just come out with "is me or is this sh&te" type comments.

Nesh It's the living with every creepy crawly known to man I didn't like.....If you didn't have a holiday after Prestatyn you got one, two weeks on the club with some infestation

I'll try harder next time John.

I've stopped in every grade and all were a sh*t hole. The lowest, budget? isn't fit for human accommodation. Hopefully they have been levelled and rebuilt. The last time I went and stayed the whole weekend , it was a nearby hotel.

It would be nice if a bit more information could be given in the topic title and maybe a scan added to the original post, for future reference. I've amended the title and added the scan this time.

Is that the first or second boot of J&W? The first J & W, the one a few got caught out with came from the midlands.

Right now no as I'm busy with photos and videos from Cleethorpes. WIll have a look later when I get he chance.

File sharing link removed...it wasn't working anyway. If you must use a service for sound files then use mic or sound cloud or youtube.

Used to be a spin for Guy years back and I've tried it too but the intro at about 50 seconds is juts to long. Tis a great track though. What is it worth these days?
