just a gentle reminder....on air now

Anyone got the delta number of the Soul Patrol original? LJD I have down as 1969 with the re-issue 1980. Anyone know any different?

some EASC just went on e-bay I think, don't remember which they were....some Wigan ones too.

did anyone record this on Sunday?

As usual Lifeline last Saturday every other month except December, will be Boxing Day February 27th April 24th June 26th August 28th October 30th December 26th can you add to the nighter planner Mr Rimmer

pretty sure the delta number on the original Pete puts it as a 60's press.

nice neat label Rod whereas many re-issues aren't stuck down properly....bit like the one Pete posted.

There are original white demo styrene copies as far as I'm aware. The later presses dunno about white ones but definitely yellow label copies done by the label owner at the request of some from the UK (Neil Rushton I think so he might be able to tell you more if he reads this), 500 of 'em. Delta # on the re-issues is S-101-X - Delta 87770-X.

just wondering as few of us being playing one out same title for last couple of years.

do you have an e-mail mailing list for your lists like this John????

having spot of bother opening the pdf here John, says broken or corrupted file after a few minutes of trying to open????

err nope, got the flyers, programs, patches etc.....ow about a scan?

Always thought this was played out mid 80's?

what's the female artist called who sings Never Let Go?

Pretty sure Marvelous Ray said that it isn't Pat Smith but her vocal on the unissued one.

I'm not selling mine Pete, these are 2 or 3 copies a friend has left over from when he bought a batch of them to sell when published, he has recently come across them. I've answered all they e-mails and PM's, demand/enquiries outstrips supply I think in this case, hope you are lucky.

'Soul Harmony Singles 1960 - 1990' by Jeff Beckman, Jim Hunt, and Tom Kline. A friend (who isn't a member of Soul Source) has 2 or 3 copies of this for sale. He bought a batch when it was published and has recently found these odd copies left over. The book is a great reference guide and is highly sought after and a must have (IMHO), took me almost two years to get a copy. Anyone interested PM or email me at chalky@mailme.co.uk and I'll pass on the details.

can someone tape this pleeeeeease

that'll be this one then Pete....

wasn't one auctioned in recent years???

If were talking about the Trannels Keb got it from Ady Pierce first, Keb put us right in a previous topic.

oldies vs. newies part 157 Good post JT. So called "newies" DJ (is there such a thing these days?) have to play oldies as you rightly say there aren't the quantity of "new" 60's records today, hasn't been for a while. But there are still plenty of records that are forgotten, ignored, neglected, underplayed (or whatever term you wish to use) out there or ......that's where the knowledge of some DJ's/collectors comes to the fore. Even when a "new " record turns up it's very difficult (practically impossible sometimes) to "break" a record on todays scene if it is in the hands of just one maybe two dj's, especially with the scene being so regionalised today. There are still plenty of records unknown to many out there....remember not everyone was old enough to do the Torch, Wheel & Wigan and many had left the scene and missed out on the 80's early 90's when 100's of new records played to return in later years, there will be records from each era that are known only to those who were there. There will be records totally ignored simply because they aren't from the era of the DJ's youth? There's very little tolerance today with new sounds, because they are so hard to break people are almost unwilling to accept them regardless how good they are for the simple reason of being unknown to them and because they rarely hear DJ's from outside their catchment area. Maybe it's an age thing and people just want to go out and live in the same comfort zone week in week out, just listen to records they are comfortable with from their youth.....what happened to the tolerance of their youth, the quest to seek out, listen to and dance to new records? Oldies are the core of the scene in reality but why do venues have to play the same old same week in week out when there are so many records out there? It's like going to a "normal" nightclub and hearing the same top 40 for years Much of the problem lies with certain areas utilising the same dj's for each venue. I look at the events calendar on a regular basis and some areas very rarely have DJ's guesting from outside their particular area,....all this IMO leads to a stagnant standing still scene. I don't think anyone insults "oldies" or the oldies brigade as you call them, some just have a preference to hear something different on their nights out.

another topic HERE about UTJ.

Think I've got everything from the TAC Weekenders. Here's the program for the acts from the first wekender, 1989.....

it's not a great record and certainly not very soulful but it is good northern, bit like Joe Jamma really.
