The Nelson was on the corner of Stephenson Place and the record shop was opposite, at one time it was called Planet X

Hudson's or the one across the road from the Winding Wheel....would have been the cinema then though.

Arsenal were a bit naive at times, only to be expected with young players. City showed their class and experience. Both sets of players however should be brought to task over the surrounding of the ref and the petulance shown throughout the game.

Phil Beckwith returns to the studio for another dose of the Sound of Soul

For many yes but there are also many who are no better than the UK sellers.

Anywhere between £75 and £150. I'd say realistically somewhere in between. Vg+ is $75 on discogs up to a few hundred for a UK seller (surprise surprise). If it is original, which it looks like from the sleeve (its not the reissue from Be With) it will sell.

I would sooner pay that bit more for postage than pay the extortionate prices many Uk sellers are asking. Let's be honest, it is not just confined to discogs. Ebay is farcical and lists and sales on forums and groups have often laughable prices. I buy most of my records from discogs at what I consider decent prices. If I want a record and look at what is for sale I tend not to look after getting three quarters down a list as that is usually the Uk sellers at massively marked up prices compared to say the yanks.

Well he certainly looks male from his facebook profile

I doubt he owns all the records but what does it matter? Some of the scans used are as said available on the net and again as said not all are vinyl uploads.

I think Klopp is being held back on the spending front by the owners who want to sell. They need a major overhaul of the midfield and a number 9, a centre half as well. Chelsea, well it ws obvious to all they needed a striker, 600 million and still no striker. Newcastle struggling a little at the minute, Arsenal beginning to drop points. Man City will win, Man U look like challenging though.

JM auctioned one, Trouble had one, not sure where either are. How do we know it is a St Louis press? Who said it was pressed there and what was the plant?

Original? Where? Phil Dick sold one in December for £7.5k, well that was the last bid update I saw.

but as kids we found it....as kids they found all the underground scenes over the decades without the need of advertising except in specialised press. Kids/youth will always find something if they want something different to the life they have. The gate keeper attitudes are what keep them special IMO, not just NS but any underground scene. As soon as it is commercialised and diluted it is no longer special.

But the scene is dying or at the very least struggling despite more people than ever allegedly into NS. Niters are a pale shadow of their former self, one I did in a large venue a couple of months ago was crap, half full same old same. The scene never needed broadcasting to the world, no underground scene did, that is what made them cool. Too manys people inhabit the scene who we went to niters to get away from, divs, bandwagon jumpers etc Maybe it is the commercialisation that is having a detrimental effect on venues and the scene?

Started off well then the usual regurgitated 40 year old impression of Northern Soul

I get what you say but Jordan and Charlotte are into today's scene, probably more so than anyone commenting on this topic. I haven't watched the show yet so cannot comment on its content.

Liverpool, perfect example of keeping a team together too long. Aging midfield who have lost their pace and energy, maybe they are tired. Same thing happened with Man U towards the end of Fergie reign. City seem to be having issues with their team as well with too many unsettled. Hard to keep that big a squad with players who would walk into any other team happy. Arsenal and Man U seem tyo be benifiting form Man City and Liverpool problems.

It seems to be no longer about sport but all about money and the making of more money. The top teams seem to doing their level best to make the majority hate them. I want the super league to happen so we can get rid of those involved. I want Chelsea to get relegated not that it will happen. They have made a mockery of FFP and as usual those running the game realise this too late. Man City, well they aren't alone in what they are doing, just they got caught. We don't seem to be talking about the football these days.

Here is last night's show if you missed it with special guest the Stafford and Soultown legend Guy Hennigan.

Guy Hennigan live on the show right now....
