RUSS has always promoted the 'rose tinted view'...He knows what went on, but chooses to lie about it (see his book!). I guess, in his world of self promotion and trying to get WIGAN CAFE etc opened, he figures he had better tell porky's and re-write history, in order to get support from the council.

I mentioned the jazzdances on a thread previously.....IDJ, Brothers in Jazz, Floor technicians...great dancers and it was a serious dance scene. I used to go to Dingwalls and the Blue note etc in thelate 80's early 90's. They actually dance TO the music...unlike the lot in the Blackpool comp! Dance Competitions on the Northern scene should be stopped now...very, very sad to watch! As for the music, very,very sad to hear!ha!

I have one for sale!

There was one on here for sale a few weeks ago...£800.

JUST SEEN THIS...very funny!

I have Yellow Label to sell. Pm me with offer?

TOTALLY AGREE CHALKY! We already have about 6 or 7 books on Wigan and as you say, a lot of the stuff being played (or supposedly discovered now) comes from that period! Respect is due, because when Wigan closed and thousands fell of the scene, this place carried on and embraced a lot of different stuff.

ARE THIRD WISH GETTING THEIR ROYALTIES ASWELL?

Check out Amlych

UH Reg, whats that mean. Im only responding to comments?

ACDC!

Who said it was, you old cowboy

Dont bother with em Chalky. I dont. They ALL pmd me making me offers

Well of course YOU dont........its Too good!

I played it at Stonehenge in 1267!

WHAT A LOVELY WAY TO DIE - Jackie Wilson French Coral picture sleeve mint offers Been playing this off and on for 3 years...clearing floors everywhere! Mick Smith played it at last 100 club and apparently it was a BIG HIT! If only people got out of London more! This is an impossibly hard tune to find!! In fact, most people haven't heard of it! STORMING PIECE OF SOUL!!

Yes, forgot about the vocal. Not as good as Betty though! And Yes, Ive been round Johns and come out with some GREAT tunes.

There are few SAFE predictions on the scene now. And, yes, i have been shocked by tunes that go too cheaply aswell.

YOUR right. I just put that on another thread and got a bollocking of John!

Yes, what a beautiful tune. Taken me two years to get one. Playing it out Friday, cant wait!

John, Im in no way saying you are mad mate! All you do is sell them, its up to people what THEY pay. Im just trying to get my head around the prices that some people pay on records, that to me , are easy enough to find! Or Not Rare. Sorry about the Lenny Williams, that must be an urban myth thats circulating. BUT, I dont feel you should take it as an insult when I question WHY buyers are pushing prices up to ridiculous levels! I was asking a general question, not having a dig! Also, I NEVER see some of these so called TOP DJ's looking through sales boxes, certainly not mine. Where things like Betty and Lenny and Sity and James and more, lingered for a LONG time........It just seems that sometimes they are fed by your site (not your problem or fault) rather than their own curiosity. Just an observation.

It got moved Rachel, so I had to post to myself to find it!!
