Received this morning, Hope you and Nichola are both well Thanks Gilly

Always wondered about these as the writing credits are completely different

Spoke to a friend last night who owns a copy, and I was mistaken. It's an AIM stamp not a daisy stamp issue that has the title on 2 lines. It is extremely rare. It's not Canadian.

Do the Canadian ones have a daisy stamp?

Actually there are originals with the title on two lines, they have a daisy stamp and are quite rare, the next bootleg guide should be amended to show this. There was a thread a few years ago which went into fine detail, but I can't find it.

I think he possibly believes you have hijacked someones ebay account. I would be very suspicious of someone wanting stuff sent to a different address.

Just had a good look at this one from Dave Flynn's website, It's just about everything you need to know.

Rockmasters - Raining Teardrops - Romulus Sapphires - Who Do You Love - Swan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPMTdtaX5VQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHwQP6DgFwk Completely different writers credits so can't see the connection Can anyone remind me what the record with the same backing as Appreciations - She Never Really Loved Me - Sport is as it's driving me nuts trying to remember.

Not been to one yet, but quite fancy going to Mojacar.

Danny Spiers and Barry Simpson both from Carlisle did several spots in both the main hall and Mr M's 78/79

Clarks did a shoe called 'oberon' in their Clarks originals range which they discontinued last year, They were a copy of the original polyvelts. I bought 3 pairs although I just use them for walking when I'm on a city break holiday. They're too grippy to dance in. The Casino's floor was an exception.

I know it was mentioned by pga1 but easy to miss.

Candace Love ?

I try to DJ as little as possible, but when I do, this usually gets a play..

I always thought that Michael Washington sounds a lot like Michael Jackson.

If you pm me your details, I'll contact him and let him know you want to speak to him.

One thing I can guarantee is that the quality of the Blue Rock styrene will be rubbish. I don't know where they got it from but it must have been made from re-cycled tarmac.

The 80's also saw the rise in popularity of the All-Dayer. A few I remember going to: Bankhall Miners, Blackpool Pier, Ritz, Highwayman's Halt at Snaith, run by Sam and Arthur Fenn. Todmorden (at the top of a very steep hill), and a bloody freezing New Years day one in Preston which was brilliant. Some of these might have been early 90's but my memory is mush.

Great piece if writing Chalky, as one of the many who carried on attending venues after the Casino closed you have written the story of my life. The quality of records played post 1980 was as good as anything played before and the turnover was at a frantic pace. Respect

Unreleased, play it anyway you like. If originals existed then things would be different.

I second that emotion, great book. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Detroit-67-Year-That-Changed/dp/0993107508

Speedjive, thanks for the link. I understand now. Like Amazon but for records.

I'm struggling to understand this.... I've never used discogs, but is everyone saying that the photographs of the records are not of the actual records for sale and are lifted from somewhere else? Is there a reason that you can't use photos of the actual records? If that's the case then I'm glad I don't buy from it.

I've had mint, never been out of the sleeve records that have been unplayable. Just bad pressings. The worst one that I can think of was a mint styrene issue of the Temptations - I want a love I can see. The groove was so lightly stamped that the stylus wouldn't sit in it.
