sings like a fish you've a way with words Pete I'll give you that

500 over the top too IMHO used to be £400 before all the copies turned up, for some strange reason the price then went up

absolutely superb piece of 70's soul

DLLGYD released 4 times on label. At one time couldn't give Pretty Girl away...well sell cheap was stuck in sales box for about 2 years.

gotta agree, no where near as good as Temptations.

can't believe no ones mentioned Garland Green's Jealous Kinda Fella - Uni, not a duffer on it, superb Monitors - Greetings always been a fave and for white boys singing soul Righteous Brothers Souled Out ain't bad Up To You just superb

dunno can't remember seeing one for sale.

The Apocryphals, take it you mean Baby I'm Losing You, Guy Hennigan spin?

anyone got a scan o the paramount release?

forget your price guides, as good a place as any to get any current price are the forums such as here, Soul Source. Another excellent forum is the RareSoulForum.

no offence taken and know none meant, it was just how it read.

Give Andy Dyson a try, he had both, Philharmonics only recently. Dysonsoul@aol.com

JaBoth is Jesse's own label I think. If you read Dave Flynn's site (anoracks corner) there is already a scan of this on there and an interview etc of the man himself.

I read the comment the same way as Paul and Andy, dunno maybe just a northern thing

well aware of what it's fetching nowadys......just adding further comment to Scotty's post I alos agree with him that it's not as rare as some think...might be hard one but IMHO it's not £1000+ rare the current price isn't always a good indication of a records rarity, often just it's demand. Vanguards over played these days IMO and far better records by them at more reasonable prices but as it's a rare and expensive one it often over shadows the cheaper and sometimes better ones

Talking of Frankie Valli...just read he's starring in the best program on TV....The Sopranos which has just started last series on E4...not got sky so will have to wait till on C4.

think they were £15 at the time

Hi Malc, it would have been late 80's very early 90's taken atr a party at John Kingans house. Here's another for you from same party,.....

the slagging off comment is just generalizing, not specifically attributed to this topic, should have made clearer in post.

Yes they have Baz, read wavy's comments on Lifeline and then read this topic, started by wavy not long after origianl comments, even admits down to some of stuff played Saturday night. I've nothing against criticism if it's constructive but it's hardly consructive when a venue is only doing what it says on the tin so to speak, therefore IMO the punter has no reason to complain. I've nothing against white soul recordings either just some I certainly don't come on here slagging a venues policy, how's it run or how it should do things better, was taught if nowt good to say about someone then say nowt. Soul records from the 60's to the present day (whatever era) have always been played. Folk should live and let live a little, like I said someone is probably enjoying the record you don't like and maybe later they don't like a record you like Maybe some of the critics of any event or any genre of music should start their own promotion, see how easy it is They can also hear just what they want to hear all night then and f*ck anyone else

Dawn Carmen from what I heard mostly 60's/northern persuassion, some crossover, I myself one 70's rest 60's I think, Andy, Mick and Butch biggest percent were 60's. Dave already posted he played 7 or 8 % moderrn I think, Cliff across the board as did Sam. I would say it weren't too far off the 80/20 you mention at most 70/30, certainly no where near the 50/50 mentioned elsewhere. There is no game plan with what the DJ's play, just told to please themselves and to play what they like. I think the only ideal Andy has in his head when he assembled the DJ team, and selects the DJ's is that they will express themselves and keep the music as fresh as possible. We all understand that you cannot go obscure every record and that there is a dancefloor to be filled but imagination is what is wanted and asked for, not just the same old same you hear week in week out although it is accepted that you will hear some of these. I know the residents and guest alike love Djing at Lifeline purely because of this policy. mI think the grin on Dave Thorley's face said it all Saturday night

No one gettting touchy just find it amazing that folk have a dig at venues and dj's, not just at Lifeline but in general, for playing anything beyond Dec 31st 1969, especially when they advertise the fact they are going to play it. I personally think they don't have a right to complain when the event does what it advertises, and again I'm not just referring to Lifeline, I'm talking in general. People know what they are going to get when they go to most venues as most venues advertise their policy and most who go soulin' every week know what most DJ's play, so why complain? Just go for a p*ss, go to the bar or have a chat with someone, go in the record bar when a record not to your liking is played, someone else is probably having the time of their life to these records. Many events advertise their policy as "across the board" yet folk still complain that they played 70's

Often did the same myself, couple of soul nights as well before the nighters

The Mighty Bub

I agree, many dj's seem to be palyhing to much mid tempo soul these days, not enough in your face Northern Used to hate Wakefield Sun but heard Guy spin it a few months back and it sounded great
