Soul Shrews

Well thought of for many a year round our way too Cheers Paul

Oh and good call on "Save Your Love" Derek Cheers Paul

Nice one John any chance of a look ? Cheers Paul

Oooh Baby Baby. Smokey and others. Cheers Paul

Maybe not so surprising as stock copies on major labels can often fetch much more than the promo counterpart if they didn"t sell much on release. As more promo copies survived at radio stations and were sent out to DJs and reviewers. The stock copies that didh"t sell would have probably been trashed or in the later 70s maybe recycled. The flipside of Beloyd is also rated by some I believe so could also have something to do with it Cheers Paul

When I bought this 45 (UK London) I was so knocked out with "How Could You Run Away" that I don"t think I ever flipped it over. So many thanks for the heads up ! Cheers Paul

Ding bong merrily on high Cheers Paul

Really ? Played as a regular spin not just at oldies events ? I am surprised Cheers Paul

Yes

Can you name one please ? Cheers Paul

Well if you went to Wigan you will have noticed records were dropped (not played anymore) once they had been booted ? Cheers Paul

But this LP is a compilation of The Exits tracks isn"t it ? Wonderful of course. And is your copy the US copy or the Jap boot? Cheers Paul

Remember Pep playing it late 70s Cheers Paul

Mine arrived (Holland)today too. Sent last Friday ! Great packaging, looks the biz, can"t wait to get stuck in, well done Steve ! Cheers Paul

Her book "Berry Me And Motown" is also great reading. RIP Raynoma Cheers Paul

Been looking forward to this one Well done Mr G Cheers Paul

Agree with most of what you say Dean. Richard Searling was number one for sure when I attended (78-81, and yes all the "last nights"" !! ) but Gary Rushbrooke, Pat Brady and Soul Sam kept me coming back for more. Cheers Paul

About the same for me, which means not enough !! Cheers Paul

"Expanded and revised " ?? Aaww crap do I have to buy it all over again??? Cheers Paul

RIP Big Sonny Intruders always a favourite group with me Cheers Paul

That ship has sailed Long time ago Andy Cheers Paul

Many thanks for that Ivor. I have already "splashed out" 30 euros for a copy at a record fair last w/end blissfully unaware of any bootleg. My copy has some background noise throughout but its surprisingly not too obtrusive. No cut out corner but some ringwear to the sleeve. I guess I'll file it in the "hmmm not sure section " for now Thanks again Cheers Paul

OK thanks kjw My copy doesn"t seem to be particularly thick or heavy so hopefully it"s a good "un ! Cheers Paul
