Well you've only an hour to go if you want the chance to get this "future" monster Dunno where the seller goes but I'd like to know the areas this is getting played F****** glad I don't go to the same venues as him

it's true. As for the ones you gave to Nick, knowing him he'll have sold them all for a tidy profit

Would have thought a few more than 2 - 3. Have seen two copies for sale on auctions in recent months, know of one that could be coming up for sale. Know of at least one more.

Without going through the catalogue I'd say the figure is mucxh higher. Most of the records were aimed at the white pop buyers. Granted there are many exceptions which you would expect considering they are mostly black artists.

Can remember that club, went there for a xmas soul night once. Used to stop over at some mates in Northampton, two brothers Gary and Floyd Zaboki (think thats how you spell it).

Certainly got spins at Stafford.

IMO Most of the funk brothers are Jazz musicians anyway. Also most of the motown output is middle of the road pop

I'd have thought some more besides Pete personally.

Disregard...f*** that, lets have an arguement...sorry debate IMHO....no they aren't soulful, never will be. Agreed they are good "Northern" and often good dancers but soulful nope It's the lyrics and the interpretation of those lyrics by the singer(s) who put the soul in the record (IMO)

£150ish. One on e-bay right now >>HERE<<

Patty & Emblems - He Said She Said & Johnny Parker - I Must Have Been Out Of My Mind aka What Do You Do Kents Ben Lee Philly Story. Brilliant pieces of soul .....just right for chilling out too

Good to meet you too mate

The sherbert has a lot to answer for doesn't it Shute does strange things to your hearing

Pretty fair to say yes Steve, bit like RCA.

Who is DJing does have some bearing on where I go. They don't have to be "names" many good collectors out there who have the balls to try and play something different and thats what I always look for, something different.

Would have thought in the region of £300

another....

Cheers Brett, will take you up on that offer one day. Can't refuse a full English

I prefer the other side You Can't Lose Something You Never Had Supposed to be Chubby Checker but I've got my doubts, sounds more like Jimmy Radcliffe. If your readiing Ady, I know you said you was going to ask? Did you get anywhere?

When I was collecting seriously I used to ask Andy for any recommendations fro4m his sales now and then, was never disappointed. He is very fair too. I will make a point of getting to Vault Of Soul sometime in the next year mate

Nice one Brett

If we all liked the same stuff Brett would be very boring indeed

Not having a dig Mark, just wondering why some use it and then all the play is oldies, 60's or 70's. Many venues in the 80's featured 60's alongside current releases, Andy Whitmore for one DJed at many venues and he played truly across the board, as did Cliff Steel, Andy Tats Taylor, Rod Dearlove, many more too....hardly hear any DJ's like these nowadays or many venues with the same "across the board" policy. One of the best articles I've read in ages is in the latest N-Soul, Brian Gouchers Thorne article, really does capture the palce and tells the story of what a true across the board venue is.

Whats that supposed to mean? At venues I've been to the majority use it as an excuse to play played out 70's Northern, Drizabone, Angie Stone etc and not one decent crossover record or modern sound Not many venues that you can call truly across the board is there in the way that say venues such as Thorne used to be. The Orwell looks like one but not ben yet. Any others?

Here's an article Henry sent.......
