I always take vg to be fooked Russ to be honest and I am always wary of buying when graded as vg. Has the page been altered to vg? But I wouldn't have neded any sales pitch, scan or grading, the sound file would have put me off straight away.

couple of scans lifted from ebay some time ago....

whilst were at it here's the Uptight 45....

Fookin 'ell, I wouldn't bid $65 for that let alone add a zero!!! You actually struggle to hear the record in places because of the noise. Amazes me why so many play top whack for fu&ked records!! Certainly can't blame the seller. FBR cheap IMO, very rare record and lots chasing it.

Remind me how much it was Nev? Anyone got a link to the Sensations?

Not Northern and not strictly "Soul" but I watched Soul Men last night on Sky, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1111948/ Quite funny in places, well had me laughing and not a bad way to while away a couple of hours.

Can't Deny The Hurt also on Uptight as Pal Rames. Palmer Crawford Rakes. White Country singer from Florida, he once had a website or was a web page dedicated to him.

it didn't sound like Butch?

Don't doubt you Barry. Hoping there's something that can be done to help it keep going. If the biggest factor is a question of outlets sure there would be a few dealers willing to help out, I certainly would. Other mags sell well at nighters/soul nights etc.

Can't remember when Shifty first got it....... Think I know where the tape came from, or who passed it on.

I was wondering (might be my memory) but don't remember hearing Shifty at Bradford?????

can you just not edit the original topic and leave it at that as requested in previous topics please. No need to keep bumping the topic as well with this or that sold, not fair on others who follow the guidelines.

who is playing the Mello Souls at the start...DJ before Nigel, Shifty? What was the line up do you know Simon?

Looks another good one Bob, downloading this one now. Got a few to catch up on. Did you look into the iTunes subscription? Be so much easier, I'd never forget to download then.

I'm a subscriber too and heard nothing yet. If it helps I'd be more than willing to take some to sell at venues, one place it is never seen really. It would be a shame to see this magazine cease publication, probably the best "Soul" magazine out there.

Sonic the label with Soul Stroke on, other side great record, You're Gonna Miss Me. Kick Off is the label for Garland Davis.

I suppose if Fragile Handle With Care is on the package and the postie drops it through a letter box 4 feet off the ground I guess you have cause for complaint whereas if nothing written on them by the seller then I guess you don't, that's my complaint really.

I think the R&B Indies has sold out/out of print now John??? I think I had the last copy of issue 4 off Bob McGrath so you might have to keep doing it the fun way

bugger it, I've scanned the relevant page in R&B Indies, hope you can read it, be easier than working out what I wrote

all the tracks 3001/3002, 3003 to 316 appear to have the same matrix numbering, 205-1723 and son on. 317 no matrix details. 318, 319, 320 have DS-1000 to DS1006 The 70's releases have DR-430 to DR 443. There appears to be one other release by the Gospel Cavaliers - You Can Make It On Your Own/? (1006) dunno where this fits in?

Daisy Burris is In Love To Stay/Four Strong Winds There's no listing for 45-304 in R&B Indies. Then there is the 3000 series which you have these listed as 301 and 302 but in R&B Indies they are 3001/3002??? 300 series then kicks off with 303 according to R&B Indies (not always right) different label design for first number (hyphen between E-U) DEE-SU 3001 Wilbert Harrison - Clementine (205-1723) b/w Sentimental Journey (205-1724) DEESU 3002 Maurice Williams - Beng Without You (2-5-1725) b/w Baby Baby (205-1726) The 45-300 series are 1970 and have the design with what looks like a coin with head on it and Deesu Records Francais going around it.

Is it just my deliveries or have record dealers stopped putting Fragile on packages now? I can't remember the last time I saw this on a package. I only mention this as our letter box is half way up the door and the daft postie just posts it through Luckily not had one break yet but I can see it happening one day Maybe I should just get a new front door

She remembered the track when I spoke to her. Someone did an interview a while later that appeared on Soul Up North or some other mag?
