Chalky

Here's an LP of his on Fania....

There was one on e-bay not long ago wasn't here?

Also got Mark Baildon's through, got a lot of listening to do :-) Cheers guys!

Got Jazzy jas's cd through today. Took me half an hour to get in to it but was well worth it. FIRST class sleeve notes and booklet. Sure the cd will be just as good when I listen to it.

Cheers Kolla I will have a gander a bit later and try and help Mark out, if not he can send me a tape and I'll transfer tape to cd for him and send back ;-) Personally I use Soundforge and NormaliseGUI to normalise the tracks once on the PC.

Steinburg Clean, is that the ful title of the program. Can find Cubase.

What help do you need Mark? Never used Steiburg Clean, never bought a program either ;-0 ;-) Can get all you want free on the net ;-)

Another couple I've pushed whenever had the chance is Syng McGowan - Just In The Nick Of Time - Hope and Benny Latimore - Girl I've Got News For You -Dade. Know one or two others who've picked BL up after hearing it and it's always got a few to the decks to see what it is.

Do you have a sound file Brett. The title seems familiar but not sure so wouldn't mind a listen.

Syl is well worth picking up. I've p[layed it out a few times the last 18 months. "Same Kind Of Thing" on Twinight ain't too bad either.

Had a listen last night for half hour or so Derek, excellent stuff. Will listen some more tonight.

I used to change my players on a weekly basis as was never satisfied with RP. I was recommended Jet Audio and now use nothing else to play any format of audio file. HIghly recommended, it is a fair size download but well worth it. The only other player I have is musicmatch which I use solely to convert to mp3pro. These are half the size of a standard mp3 but with no loss of quality. Convert a wav to mp3pro at 40kbps and it is roughly the same size as an RA but the quality is far far superior.

Deffo 143 IMHO, it's clearer in the mix, the horns etc stand out that bit better IMO.

Syl Johnson - Try Me (Twilight/Twinight). £10 and Northern Soul through and through. Has everything you want in a dancer.

I prefer 143 (probably cause thats the one I got ;-) ) 152 has more bass and balls to it. If Mike has no objections (or Ady cause he's released them on CD) I can post some ra's for you to listen to and compare. Having said all that just buy one of them, Northern Soul as good as it gets and cheap @ £25.

Dunno, I'll go and listen ;-)

Roy Hamilton was I think one of Elvis' heroes.

Oh and the two Calla releases are slightly different vocal takes and probably slightly different in the mix. You can hear the difference.

Butch's version is far better, it has male backing for a start and finishes the record off IMO. The other two just aren't ther same, although superb Northern Soul.

One went for a lot more some time back, £650/£750 if I remember rightly.

Not a lot you can do. You can leave him poor feedback but he will then reply in kind and f*** your rating up. You could report to ebay, they may suspend his account but all he has to do is re-register under a different name. You could also watch his future auctions like you say;-) Know some who have done this.

Paul's and Jock's arrived today. Got some serious listening to catch up on;-) Cheers guys.

Was a quantity turned up not so long ago.

Cheers Scotty. I know the Stanson release is pretty rare, like I said great bit of soul IMO. Will listen to rest of cd soon ;-)

did anyone manage to tape the show? And you missed a good night at Sheridans Derek ;-)
