Ward Burton - Sweet Temptation?

If they are good and done right as already said I love live acts. I don't mind them without if they can still do the business, seen some great acts without a band.

I thought this was still around £1k???

I'd keep it to myself, have in the past and still do with those I know about. Keep looking, if you put it about copies turn up and it devalues straight away. What's the cover up artist/title btw?

£40 for a demo yeah but an issue is a cheapie, £10/£20 surely or have I missed summat?

I can't think of one record "broken" at Keele? Even in the early days when Neil and Jackie ran it. Loved the place in the early days but not so much since its been "done up"/changed. Musically after places like Blackburn when Guy ran it and Mexborough, Shotts etc which were pretty forward thinking Keele took too much of a step backwards for my liking with the oldies, still a good night out though and a fab record bar back then, loads of deals done there.

But did John have a copy, sure someone on here in a previous topic about this record said not. Hopefully John can set the record straight.

Marc why would the price come down because it is uncovered? No more copies have turned up unless topic starter selling one. All the other copies from same source. So it is just as rare now ad it was when covered up. It is massively indemand with loads after a copy.

Another great read Rob, you should put all these together in one book I can't see the pictures here btw?

I didn't see the one on JM's site but someone said it was a mistake??? Why would John list it for £2k when it's one of the biggest records in recent years? Can John confirm he sold it? All the others bar one I think have sold for more than £2k. It's quality, both sides and one of the best discoveries of the last 15 years.

Shame about that Alan, the flip just as good as other side!

If I remember rightly Steve Smith had a white demo of Tony Clarke, seen a couple go through ebay. Here's a scan from Benji's site, thought I had a better scan of one of 'em but can't find it on the PC.

yes but no requests which the origianl question was about, a request for a record tht had already be played by the previous DJ. Well over 20,000 tracks on Ipod in wagon

could get a bit expensive though and a pain running to the bar all the time for change to feed the thing 150 records or so in a six hour soul night, whoever owns the jukebox would make a fortune

The question was could you play "whatever you want" twice a night TODAY. We all know X Y and Z had multiple plays back in the day but back then they were new discoveries with the DJ's trying to "break" the record to the scene. As I said it is really a pointless comparison. As good as Suspicion, Benny Troy, Jewels etc etc are, after 40 years of DJ's hammering them would you like to hear then several times in one night on today's scene? I somehow doubt it. Unless it is a new discovery I don't think it is necessary to play anything twice. There's something wrong when DJ's can't choose say 200 records for an allnighter from the 1000's available to them without repeating tracks played by DJ's on before them. DJ's should use their imagination a little and promoters should encourage them to do so, even if it is an oldies night. Does any promoters have a ban on repeat plays? I've seen it advertised once I think that repeat spins are not allowed.

Hi Dave. Good thanks likewise I hope? Gail Anderson on Salvador?

Kell Osborne on Highland just 3(?) known copies?

I don't think Flynny is accusing you of anything(especially lying) or implying that you are abusing people. You made a reference that all copies had a inherent hiss due to a pressing fault. Quote "all of them were pressed with this kind of noise" unquote. He was simply stating that it wasn't true that they were all pressed with a hiss and that some copies are indeed hiss free

Richie will probably say that I haven't listened to the others yet, was just going by the first post. I've heard it several times and fail to see why it should be compared to Rare/Northern/Modern Soul.

can anyone give me a reason why this shouldn't be in freebasing entertainment, where IMO it belongs? Fail to see what it has to do with Northern, Rare or even Modern Soul? It's a pop record.

There's already a topic about this on here Deb

IMO it's rather pointless comparing playing a record twice in a day to say at the Torch or Wigan. For one they were new or fairly new discoveries back then. Today they have been hammered for up to 40 years. There are 1000's of records to choose from so don't really see the need to repeat plays throughout the night, just shows a distinct lack of imagination of both the promoter and the DJ's. Unless it is a new discovery I would avoid repeating a record at all times.

Deadbeats as I said in post number 11.

reckon so, Deadbeats - No Second Chance - Strata

Al Williams, maybe Satin or one of the others, James Phelphs, John Edwards?
