There's a photo HERE amongst the article about Venture Records.

MP3's are not allowed on the site as per site policy and rules....I can't edit this topic but I'm sure one of the other mods will be along soon to do so soon.

just started a topic for all things that collectors and Dj's will want/need or recommend to fellow collectors...

covers 33 sell mailers, few different types too. John Manship sells them too.

Surprised you didn't know it Stevie, I thought both sides were as well known as each other?

THE FIVE STAIRSTEPS + CUBIE - STAY CLOSE TO ME - your kids are safe, unfortunately we don't have an open fire

no one forces you to read it or any post do they?

not quite too young mate. First pair I had at school with about 50 segs in each Hopefully I'll be at Radcliffe

Solatios Mick. Ikon make some very similar. https://www.huckleberrysmenswear.co.uk/ikon-shoes/ikon-solatio-burgundy.html I've had my Brogues for about 15 years but they now make my heel and legs hurt for some reason, reckon the actual heel inside is knackered

and me, there's info in the Goldwax one about the stuff he did and what Goldwax sold to Fame etc. Let's Talk It Over and the likes. Deffo for me too

if a record is a second issue, legitimately done by the label there is nothing to stop the seller saying so, if it is a boot, reissue should suffice, the prospective buyer can then do his homework, if not no ones fault if things go wrong but his/her own. I know the info is out there but the sellers information should be as clear as it could possible be, saves any hassle later if some arises.

the play button on the (bottom) left will open the track in the window or full page, the second play button along will open the track in a stand alone player... Here's my offering for Northern Soul anthem...one of the best IMHO FI-DELS - TRY A LITTLE HARDER -

my essential listening today form Kent are the two Jimmy Hughes cds, Fame Recordings and the Spencer Wiggins Goldwax Years which to my shame I've only just bought, great southern soul

glad to be of service

I suggest you upgrade to latest IE7 or 8 or better still get Firefox.

dunno when I click on The link for Don Varner in Tabs post it opens a stand alone player, could be your settings. What browser do you use, Firefox, IE?

Bloody hell, took me all morning to think of that Will change it to summat else, any suggestions

I though I'd pinned it Greg but forgot to click the go button pinned now

don't forget you can search by either title or artist, once you start to type in the search box you will see a little blue timer going round at the end of the search box, refosoul is searching for suggestions, it really doesn't take long and if it matches what you are typing it will throw up (not literally) the matching suggestions. Refosoul really is a great resource, far more comprehensive than youtube and if it isn't there simply ask and it will no doubt be posted in a short time. Youtube clips make the place look untidy to me and are often slow to load where as refosoul is practically instant. You can play the refosoul clip either in the window you are viewing or a seperate stand alone tab, there will be two "play" links to choose form, have a play around in there and get used to it Try posting a couple of tracks in one of the audio topics, 60's soul Sunday, crossover Friday or even this one

Sleeves for those valuable 44's and 33's...maybe cases for the little silver disc.... https://www.covers33.co.uk/ https://oriviousrecords.com/sleeves/ https://www.musictools.de/shop.shtml https://soundswholesaleltd.co.uk/

The white card topic threw up the idea of a topic where we can add every resource for the collector and DJ, all in one topic. Time and time again someone asks for info on where to get something particular to take care of their valuable records. Could Paper/card sleeves, stylus, decks, cases so on and so on. So add you links to resources you think fellow anoraks, collectors, dj's and promoters might benefit from.

Hi Julie, Gerri Granger is there... GERRI GRANGER - I GO TO PIECES - If you search refosoul, it will give you suggestions, click on the relevant suggestion, the track will open. Scroll right down to the bottom and click on the link (see next line) it will read Copy and paste this clip into a forum post (click to activate) Once you click on this it will open up a little more with a link of to the track, click on this once, it will highlight copy the link and then simply paste it into the topic in question.

Simon why not view refosoul in a second window, it is what I do, and I presume you have youtube open in a seperate window? Just have two soul source pages open I simply search a track and it is there, play it and copy the link at the bottom of the page....really is easy.

what is up with refosoul to get your track across to everyone, most if not all the tracks on youtube are in refosoul. Refosoul is a great resource members on here spend hours adding to and it is a waste not to use it.....IMHO
