Kings Go Forth On Ebay
Maybe to dealers who bought in bulk but I bet that most who have bought copies didn't know about the record till posted on Soul Source. Its all about opinions Seb, you think it's monumental, I personally think it's far from it, average at best. I think there are far better 60's and 70's records out there. My copy is filed and will probably stay there, might come out to sell certainly won't go in the dj box.

If Ian Levine had done this record he would have been slaughtered on here, treason, flooding the scene with tailor made records blah blah blah

I've nothing against anything being popular James. I was questioning the sheep mentality of DJ's and the lack of any imagination, something you are very passionate about are you not. As Jock said you lead the way with this record and credit to you for playing something new but it's the other 298 dj's who have probably bought the record solely because of the hype. And before you start I am also on record praising the record, its certainly not great though, it's average at best. Why don't some of those who are gonna hammer it, play some of the many genuine 60's releases that are out there, forgotten, underplayed etc leave the record to those that have championed it and give it some shelf life. It seems that everyone wants ready made dance floor fillers, records someone else done the leg work with, a record that cause everyone is talking about it gives them some sort of credability. The scene was about seeking out that rare elusive disc, the next big thing, something no one else is playing now it's becoming like the top 20 with chart records being spun and retro sounding imitation records causing as bigger stir than the records it is imitating.

DJ's aren't told what to play at Lifeline James, just like you weren't told not to play the Salvadors.

Like Jock said one or two is leading the way but when every Tom Dick and Harriet DJ play this, which they will, it's not very imaginative is it. It would be better if people opened their imagination to what you got into this scene for in the first place, authentic 60's & 70's soul, not retro sounding imitation music.

destined to get hammered more like cause dj's have no imagination there's far better records out there, records that this one is imitating.

Ralph Soul Jackson On Rajac
I don't think there's no mention of it being him in the biography his manager gave us or the discography when he was going to come over here a few years ago. Will dig it out and double check.

Ipod/mp3 Requests - No More - Please
cause I presume he asked it to be stopped is cause it's illegal to share and download copyrighted material

Ralph Soul Jackson On Rajac
it was sold for 400 quid before the right dj's gave it some turntable action.

Raphael Saadiq
what's wrong with playing it from the cd
-
Ralph Soul Jackson On Rajac
Not certain but Butch may have got it from Andy, Andy got a few copies from Ralph, all disappeared into collections now though. It was 4 or 500 then but not as well known as Set Me Free, although I think it's a better record. Should sell for as much as Set Me Free by rights.

Listed this for Andy for 4 or 500 last year. Probably harder than Set Me Free????

Jackey Beavers - Were Not Too Young - Mainstream/jaber

Oldies By Era
started a wigan oldies topic for you, give it a week and start another from another venue/era.
-
Wigan Oldies
Someone asked for oldies by era, Wigan, Torch, Highland Room etc, I suggested separate topics for each so they didn't get lost or mixed and could easily be defined as an oldie from a particular venue. So to start it off lets have a week of oldies from arguable the most famous venue Wigan, early stuff, later stuff, the pop who cares!!!!! We've already had a superb Stafford topic sop this could enbd up a pretty good mini series, a better reflection of the venue than any cd will give you.
-
Oldies By Era
simply start a topic, say Wigan Sounds, then another next week......so on

pretty sure 50 years here (unless it's changed recently). Elvis already suffers cause of this over here, some of Cliffs stuff won't be long (if not 50 years already) and neither will the Beatles. Think Cliff wanted 90 years (same as US) as that more or less covers any artists lifetime. Maybe Paul Mooney knows different as he works in this area.
