Great album...the live version of THE BOTTLE is the brilliant.! Top. Happy hunting mate!

Domestic Five It's An Empty World The skills of James Lately mold this rare Detroit vocal-group beauty. The fabulous thing about this incredibly fluid harmony mid-pacer is the condition; without exception the few copies we have ever seen, have all been vg or less. This copy can only be described the finest we've seen, only a few light surface blemishes, as you can hear it plays superb. Both labels are flawless. Current bid: £ 9.00 Time remaining: Approx. 3 days, 5 hours BAG A BARGAIN, a truly rare and soulful tune, in the best condition around! On JMs at moment!

YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT vg++ £100 Harlem Hit Parade

£400 ish i think...not an easy to find tune. Seen it at £400 a year or so ago.

RUSS WINSTANLEY must have one, cos he always plays it out and as we know, being the original Mr Wigan, he has an original vinyl only policy!

VERSATILES - Cry Like A Baby m- Staff...tune! £40

f--k, forgot about Vince! sorry mate...tiop bloke and dj. Always open to new stuff...

Well said Maria! Whenever ive been in Oz (every year!) ive found the native Aussie soulies to be more diverse and interesting in taste and knowledge..particularly Callum, Samantha, Alex, Frank (hes a brit exception.ha!). all that bigotted "were English , so know what soul is crap" is vacuous without the tunes and the will to expand the mind and soul. For me Europe scene is far more interesting and open.

I agree...i went to Wigan, but it wasnt the be all and end all of Northern soul and i certainly dont feel the need or desire to go back! There are many bigots on this scene and a lot resent young people. Probably makes them insecure., i dont know. Thats why i enjoy Melbourne, Oslo, Milan...anywhere where theres no agenda and an open mind to music. Think the problem is one of semantics and definition. Thats why i say im not into Northern Soul, as its been weighed down in a very negative way by a bunch of old duffers looking for ownership and control. Im definitely into SOUL and havent heard every track of every genre, so cannot say 'I dont like' a particular style...theres room for all. Young people are essential to 'SOUL' surviving. As for Northern Soul, its been argued overand manipulated so much that im not sure what it means. To me it was an attitude and energy, that led me to listen to soul music non-stop and travel each week to hear NEW and exciting music, to one of a handful of venues that was supported by a group of likeminded, open hearted souls. I think the situation nowadays, with a thousand vevues on every week (seems like!) and the 'older generations' dwindling desire to travel, is a lot more fractuous and thats why is neccessary for younger souls to kick some life into it and show some unity.....peace.

OOOH! Ark at her! I sense bitterness and hate there, which is surely bad for any scene? Where will the Funk be (its not in your list?)

YES it is....not expensive, but hard to find. Karl Heard has one (i sold him it.). Hes only person ive heard play it.

YEP!

Keep Off The Grass C/w It's A Trap Dynamic Corvettes Condition: Mint minus Current Bid: £ 222.00 Closing date: 16.12.2009 18:00 WHAT A TUNE!! Thank god i have one! think this will go big! Double sider!

https://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2329101 HERE IT IS MATE. Last time Levine played there!

Guides wrong! £2000 - £4000 its gone for.

Its deffo 'Fonztastic'!

Doo Wop...glad its still alive. Theres still a small Doo Wop scene in Usa too.

Totally agree Steve. He is of course, an icon of the soul scene and, dare i say it, of soul itself....and worth every penny of a bookers fee, be it £100 or £1000. What Mr Winstanley doesnt know about soul, isn't worth knowing...AND he still manages to break so many new tunes aswell. A real force of nature! One of the few who has remained true to his 'roots'....(ginger i think.)

Eh! each to his own mate. we have OVO at our venue, just a way of life for me us guess and a sound quality issue on a lot os Withstandlys boots! Hard to find an original in Russ's box Hope he used his fee to buy records!
