Chalky

Yes it was him I think, Tim mentioned it again t’other day elsewhere

There is a few green issues about, Tim and Butch got them from the label owner I think?

Patrice Holloway - Stevie

There are three red stockers, Eddie Holman confirmed this. The ones seen for sale are the same two copies going round. Shouldn't you start another topic for issues/stock copies?

Don't know but will try and find out

This weeks show (16th December)

April or may???? Suppose it depends on pressing plants

it doesn't say it is, its a reissue

I will ask on the Chicago Soul FB Group, they might know something.

Its out on a 7 in the New Year

It is a simple process but as usual people want to make it difficult

I agree £150 tops for Bobby Sheen, not remotely rare.

Where does it state that events after 1am are scuppered? It doesn't, it states they need to show the covid passport/certificate for late night venues and gives a description of a late night venue Government site https://www.gov.uk/guidance/carrying-out-mandatory-covid-19-status-checks-at-your-venue-or-event#overview-of-the-rules As for checks, its pretty simply, you download the certificate to your phone, we had to do it to get into Dab weekender in Wales last month, was all pretty straight forward. Or you can download and print your pass or get the NHS to send you a copy. Its all pretty simply.

Both sides sound too poppy for me

Quite a few more than 4, there is probably 4 in New York. Andy Rix got three copies from band members or relatives. Two at least in Japan at one time, couple over here etc etc

Simply give both visual and play grade. As you say photo and sound file can be supplied as well, the buyer then has all the information to make a decision.

Must be something else that was a little bit more then 😆

Bit more than that. One sided too if memory serves

John Vincent ws recently the subject of conversation in one topic, Tommy Ridgely being the link. Here is a Top 15 of John's from 24th September 1983.

This weeks show with special guests in the studio Nicola Anderson and Ricard "Gilly" Gilbert. Rare Soul and banter galore.

I have Ian Clark early 80s with Ruby Andrews, can't remember if it was late Yate, I will see if I can find the source.

I heard he got into bother with that one as it wasn't licensed

I know he played it with the other newies at Morecambe for about 6 months, 1983. He said they were poorly received and he became disillusioned and retired.

The Wigan set with Tommy Ridgely was discussed here... https://www.soul-source.co.uk/forums/topic/324115-awesome-richard-searling-spot-at-wigan/

Tommy Ridgely it would appear was played just the once, week after the 6th anniversary, 29/9/79. IT went back to John by all accounts and was picked up by John Vincent who played it along with Just Brothers, Peanut Duck etc at Morecambe to little acclaim. Butch made it massive mid 80s onwards Ian Clark played it early 80s
