I presume you are selling these records? Usual practice is to put them in the actual post with a price or offers or some other clue for the rest of the members.

Clara Hardy is one off acetate. There's half the record in refosoul. Tommy & Derby's is due for release by Gary Cape anytime soon.

it used to be a certain style/sound and date, as said late 60's early 70's, now it's anything that fits the genre/style from whatever year a dealer decides.

what about this one?

And if you want to see what they look like....

Maybe time Northern venues moved with the times a little and got cd players, it is the original format after all. Same for loads of unissued stuff that has appeared on cd over the years, why go to the expense of getting a carver done?

I was viewing one who used the number grades 1 to 10 thenhe went and graded the record 5- ffs it's either 5 or 4

well if Woody buying the drinks i'll have a proper northern drink, pint o' bitter

he ran out of something, must have had writers block or whatever they call it after the first couple Was the Vg.1 etc the Art Posey 45? Saw that, talk about complicating matters

Just come across one that uses 1 to 10 and here's his description.... I like number 8! Between 7 and 9 10: Mint… Perfect record, clean gloss, no marks, beautiful in every way. Very few records will make mint. 9: Mint -… Very clean, only a few light marks. A great record. 8: Condition between 7 and 9. but closer to 9 7: VG+… Used, but not abused. Light scratches only. Should play, and look very nice with minimal surface noise. 6: VG… Looks a bit used, light scratches, no gouges, still plays well, some surface noise. 5: VG-… A bit rough but will play ok. Fills the collection. 4: G… Plays very rough. Has multiple scratches. What a bargain!! 3-2-1: It only goes down from here.

unissued as far as I'm aware on 45.

also found details of a music publishing company Art & Joseph Music, Art Posey and Joseph Powell. https://www.faqs.org/...ef-powell-love/ scroll down and it will show Art and Joseph, click the sample document links and you get other info such as copyright claimant, Groovesville and Art and Joseph, Jobette etc https://www.faqs.org/...y-2/#id10891586 quite a bit to his name.

Quick google throws up some credits to who I presume is the same guy.. https://www.discogs.com/artist/Art+Posey

Hope to be over for a few hours tonight.

Can't remember some of titles without getting off me arse and looking..... Solid Solution - Righteous Brothers - Souled Out Esquires -

Agreed Greg not one to set the dancefloor alight.

Both the Saintmo and Peak are the Fabulous Four, Peak the first release. Couple of recent topics in Look At Your Box.

Other peoples taste obviously not as good as ours Phil :lol:

AGWAY I remember Rob Marriott playing late 80's early 90's.

Bloody great record IMHO. Can't recall any one DJ giving this prolonged play, could be my memory though. Reckon the current price is on a par with rarity, £20ish. Better than many expensive records though.

Big George pitched one down to minus 8 when at Lifeline, it was still 100 mile an hour....I was knackered listening to it never mind dancing to it

That was probably Andy putting the pitch right up when Mick's back turned Seriously though I would never think about pitching this one up, quite fast as it is.

Mainstream very rarely, connoisseur/chill out type venue/room maybe. I've not heard it out for a while.

If it feels right pitch it which ever way you want. Some are too fast today and pitched down a bit makes them just about right. Some are the opposite, too slow so pitched up make them that bit better of a dancer. I rarely do either, just the odd occasion with the odd record or two.
