E. Williams 'trade My Soul' On Ebay
You're a lucky man - I would love to own this, especially Roger's copy. Always his top spin for me and that's saying something

Amazed RB let this beauty go - surely one of his defining sounds, like Butch selling his Just Bros

Cissy Stone - Gone But Not Forgotten (Decca)
Brilliant, thanks - that kind of answers my initial question Out of interest any idea year-wise when DE would have been playing it at Wigan?

Cissy Stone - Gone But Not Forgotten (Decca)
Bit harsh I think Brian - many much loved tunes are essentially 'pop soul' by both black and white singers. Colour not massively relevant to me as long as they create an atmosphere or a bit of excitement. Look at the number of blue-eyed 60's garage and beach scene records played over the years, loads of them by white acts but who cares. It's what's in the grooves that counts

Robert Knight - Love On A Mountain Top
How did you come by this clip?! Can't imagine many people having had a video recorder in 1974, unless it was repeated later I guess

Not a Wigan record then Pete?

Turnpikes - Used But Not Abused
Turnpikes - Cast a Spell (Capitol) SOLD Used but definitely not abused copy of this monster (also great mid-tempo flip) Lots of very light scratches as per attached photo, but plays really well - a good 'Ex' sound-wise I would say, loud and clear Doesn't turn up very often so would like £80 plus postage (£2.50 1st Class recorded or £7.00 special delivery) but happy to consider decent offers Paypal as gift. Full refund if not completely happy. PM if interested Cheers, Chris. Turnpikes Photo.pdf

Really?! Was it a Wigan play then? Seems to be a fave with this lot at Aberdeen

Cissy Stone - Gone But Not Forgotten (Decca)
After some info on this - presumably big as a new release? Wigan? Mecca? Everywhere?! Haven't really come across it before but clearly well known. Cheers, Chris.

Great photo - wonder how he ended up in Mansfield?!- Majik - Back Into Your Heart (Hi)
Great reaction last week to my thread about High Frequency - Summertime, thanks Any similar memories of this one? Who played it / when / where / played recently? Right on the money for the early 80's revival IMO (albeit from 1979!):-- Wilson Pickett - Funky Broadway
- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
Brilliant, thanks Sean Just need to remember where I read it was played in M's now- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
Reckon you got a bargain there Mal- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
What early 80's sounds are getting played?- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
Thanks Sean - anyone else confirm?- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
Hadn't heard this before - do like it but doesn't kick arse for me the same way HF does - anyone else?- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
The only 45 I could find was on here recently as 'offers'. Can't find the one Mal saw on ebay. Seem to be plenty of 12's around but not many 7's- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
I like the 12" too though can see the 7" is the one for niter play What value on a 7"? Several copies of both the red and the gold 12" versions currently on discogs etc for under £100 but no 7" Anyone know why two label colours? Both are NIA 1004 and both apparently originals, though presumably one a first pressing Wonder where I read it had been played at M's?- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
Did you get the 45 Mal? What did you pay for it? Seems to be rarer than the 12"- High Frequency - Summertime (Nia)
Brilliant, thanks Arthur - so presumably you were playing it at Clifton Hall? A Wigan tune at all? As mentioned I seem to recall reading it was played in M's - Soul Trousers
