Wade the version for me.

In any business in any walk of life you make an enquiry, you get a reply, you thank the person who replied with I'll get back to you etc etc. Its common courtesy.

I've stopped responding to wants Greg unless I know and trust those asking. I used to reply with yes and for instance a cheap £75. Then a reply would come back with oh only looking to spend £25. If not serious about a want and willing to pay the going rate or thereabouts then they shouldn't bother in the first place

I agree and if the seller had the decency to respond then you could at least have the courtesy to respond again with a quick and simple "thanks".

I do agree that many sales are made when the list is fresh but I don't think the sales list does get lost, those interested in sales will read them all and go down the list. I know plenty who don't use soul source except for the sales topics. They read them all, they don't read other forums except for the odd occasion and don't post on here. How it works now is fine as far as I'm concerned as it stops the pointless "just giving this a bump" type posts many used to post. They still show on the front page when they are bumped.

Why not give those who ask for a record 24 hours (or whatever you stipulate) to respond to the "yes it's yours" reply with either the cash or further instructions or request to hold until they get paid or whatever excuse? State this in your original sales topic and simply follow to the letter. You can put "on hold" in the topic (as some already do) and remove the "on hold" if you don't hear from them within whatever time you stipulate. maybe we should have a separate topic to name and shame, both dealers and buyers or if you feel that strongly you could name and shame on your sales topic, this was bought by such and such and I've not heard from them so relisting?

Timmion are good, 25 euro I think for two sides. Difference between Timmion and Carvers is Timmion use actual metal acetates, better sound quality than carvers. https://www.timmion.com/cutting

Here's edited scans of the Musette test press, You Know How Love Is and Showbusiness. In my opinion got to be June Edwards, you can judge for yourself when refosoul is open again and I can upload the sound files. Many thanks to Chris Morgan for his kind permission to use these.

I can't believe a topic about Holland Dozier and Holland and the amount of music that is of interest to us that they were behind has generated just 8 replies

The Paris had if I remember rightly Steve Mancha on the flip, Did My Baby Call. Can't remember much else about them, thought there was 4 discs at the time. Maybe from different sources but thought Rudzy issued some of them??? Might be wrong, if so apologies.

It came out about the same time as the Paris, Johhny Honeycutt. Was Rudzy something to do with them?

It will still be there in The Sharp End to add too etc at any time.

gotta agree with you David, who needs all this retro sh*te or the same old same week in week out when there's gems like this that rarely see the light of day at a venue.

No matter how plush the venue the toilets, or at least the gents, would still be a mess in no time. most the lazy gits can't be bothered to lift the toilet seat and simply p*ss all over it I wonder if they do the same at home

Lifeline would like the DJ's there as early as possible, 9pm preferably when we start. I can't really speak for Andy who sorts the DJ's but I doubt he wouldn't take kindly to any DJ booked at Lifeline to DJ at another allnighter the same night. Any DJ with anything about him shouldn't take two bookings the same night, he (or she) should be fully committed to just one venue, especially as most all-nighters start around 9pm.

I DJ'ed there several times, was a regular DJ at the Tracky Club at the time and could be found in a club somewhere in the area every weekend, great days!

in out, in out, shake it all about

Mike's working on the player etc so some of it has been disabled whilst this is done.....

anyone post the sound file of the flip? Can't remember it. jt carter - closer to your heart -

thank fook for that, two pages of discussion and we have a decision

yes but the difference with that is that is a legitimate original label release, you are talking about UK re-issues done especially for the UK Rare Soul Scene. I'm surprised anyone would even consider questioning the Big Maybelle Rojac releases.

well I try to make the Lifeline flyers (well supply the info, Mace does the techie bit of putting it together) interesting and maybe a bit collectable by using a different artist for the background. Few of the artists featured I doubt many have seen before. Betty Lloyd being one. Here's the latest....Clifford Binns the featured artist. Flyers still have their place on the scene but they are not the necessity they once were.

but some wouldn't play a re-issue when there is a genuine US original label issue.

I have sound files and scans of the test pressing, just waiting for permission to put up edited versions or maybe even the whole thing.
