Seen a couple of green label Linda Joneses for sale recently. Can some kind sourcer fill me in on the difference between the green and yellow ones please. Cheers Paul

I've been 'arpin on about the possibility of "Soul Train" DVDs for a good while but when my mate sent me some footage a while back it suddenly came to me......................they"re miming a la TOTPs so would it be such a great thing to have them all ? I much prefer a live performance these days to going out and listening/watching someone play records but dunno if I wanna see miming for hours on end. Cheers Paul

Thanks Dave and as they say over here "condoleren en veel sterkte" Cheers Paul (+Mandy)

Hope some "soul sourcer " will print out this thread and send it to the Wylie family as a small tribute from worldwide soul fans. A true legend has been lost, someone who had an enormous influence on the "Motor City'" music history and so also the UK "Northern Soul Scene" RIP Brother Richard and thank you for your musical legacy Paul Woosnam

Is the Burgess Gardner referred to on the label the jazz trumpeter ? Cheers Paul

Yes Pete, I agree 100% when I first read it my initial reaction was to have my account closed. Not wanting to be a member of a forum that let this kind of post stand. Hear, hear Mark Cheers Paul

If you read the latest issue of "Theres That Beat" you will see it was played at the last Hamburg weekender to a full dancefloor. Ahhh.........................now I get it thanks Pete Cheers Paul

Our Ken would never accept "buttons" for a tune, but if yer offering "malteasers" well.................................................... Cheers Paul

Tony you are a star sir Once again many thanks for the info, I will do my best and try and find that CD I posted the "Make Me Believe In You" Dutch sleeve in a picture sleeve thread a while ago if any kind sourcer could find it and post it on here I'd be grateful. Once again thanks Tony you da best Would love to see that Mr G Oh Gawd I just got repetative strain syndrome going thru all that again, thanks Pete Fasten your seat balt "rugbysoulgirl" theres a lot more to come I'm sure Cheers Paul PS Oh and thanks Ian these revelations 'bout back in the day are priceless PPS JamesTrouble, your "input" on this thread is really not worth it.

Love to meet up with you guys for a beer or six after the show tho Cheers Paul

Am amazed that people are reccomending Utrecht for 45s as the couple of times I've been its been albums (admitingly very good)albums,albums. And the only 45s of any significance in the "rare soul' kinda thing were from English dealers. Apart from the odd Euro picture sleeve and they weren"t cheap. Cheers Paul

Ian, Did you try to find Patti Jo for SWONS ? Don't think anyone has a photo of her ? Was gonna put a picture of the Dutch 45 of "Make Me Believe In You" but unfortunately Mrs Shrews can't be arsed and I don't have the know how. Don't think she recorded anything else except her other "Ain't No Love Lost" ? Scepter 45 ? Cheers Paul PS The Dutch 45 has a "designed" sleeve rather than a pic/photo

Don"t remember Al Williams being covered.................................could well be wrong tho Cheers Paul
