I was guessing the same, think all those (or the majority) around at the minute came via Andy Dyson. There's a clip on Lifeline's site, link under my name below.

Temptones.

some patches have fetched well into three figures in the past......

yeah it does Russ....examples of both on popsike. and which other RSJ track?

what is this venue that played an hour of modern when it shouldn't have? If there isn't one then why we having this debate? C'mon Cris you must have suffered for an hour to make such a post?

but we aren't talking about a two room venue are we? and "Modern" soul has always been played at Northern venues. Most venues advertise as "Across the board" these days even when they clearly don't play across the board, so should modern not be played at these? If an event played something that was advertised then maybe some have the right to complain but as modern soul is part of the northern scene and has been for years, for example Wigan and many nighters in the 80's (many of which had at least one Modern DJ on), and more laterly venues that play and class the likes of Angie Stone and Drizabone etc as modern and so gives them the right to class their venue as across the board so how do you say what is allowed and what isn't? What p*sses me off is those who complain even though the venue advertises exactly what they play. Has anyone ever asked for their money back when they haven't got what they want?? Have they ever complained to the promoter(s)? Doubt it very much, they would sooner come on here and have a good whinge

gave them a call earlier, having one specially made as they don't keep the one row 200 capacity on stock or on the PC, £55 with a tenner postage

my fault not reading it right Bob, in my defense I'd had a few beers for all you lot not been on over the weekend still a few to name, a couple of posts back I posted all those still require identifying

cheers Phil, they are on Beatin' Rhythm page saying they hold 200 records (approx I would guess) yet on BA site as 130 capacity!

all the above in this post require identifying, c'mon you anoraks

I have re-named all those that are sorted, but I'll try and sort a post.

Cheers Seb, think it had your name in the tag that one.

just been looking at beatin' rhythm and they sell one for £75. Anyone got one from them? https://www.beatinrhythm.com/specialoffers.asp

what was the night advertised as? we are assuming it was advertised as a 60's northern night. Can we see a flyer or the advert?

anyone confirm this one? plenty left that need identifying too

quickly from Gilly's notes on the Kent cd booklet........Tats and Gilly went to the States armed with a tape recording from Sedge of the Rose Valentine cover up. Melvin Davis took them round to Dave Hamilton's house and Dave was playing them some studio tapes and on the tape was the Rose Valentine cover up at an "incorrect" slower speed. Gilly then fetched the tape recording from the car played it Dave and Melvin and Dave said it was too fast and originally recorded slower than the tape suggested. They asked who it was as no one really knew who it was (apart from Richard and John Anderson by the looks of things) and Dave Hamilton confirmed it was Ann Bridgeforth...little Ann. I've a recording of Gilly's acetate here, one full take on one side. The flip is the band alone for about a minute then a second instrumental with a touch of backing in it, full take but at a quicker speed.

and I thought you were a promoter of "across the board soul music"

Tats is a SS member, maybe he'll come and tell the story.

cheers pal. I'm good thanks, like wise I hope

can't remember the full story but think they played Dave a tape and he told them who it was and he had acetates and studio tapes. If you have the Kent cd Dave Hamilton Dancers it's in the booklet.

and it was Gilly and Tats who found out who it really was on a visit to Dave Hamiltons.

I thought Junior McCants - Little Carl Carlton cover up was bit longer than Mello Souls?

Cheers chaps I'll give swan a ring Wally

I'm looking for Swan flight quality box, holds 150 to 200 45's, one long compartment, not two, if you know what I mean, with removeable lid. Any suggestions?

and a picture sleeve....
