Soul Shrews

My first Wigan 'nighter was the week after the 5th anniversary! Thank's for the memorie's

Yep! Good call Ken, as usual. Cheer's P+M

Good thread Godz,just recieved a couple from Pete S which did exactly what they said on the tin! Also like to big up MarkRes, due to a mix up thing's didn't turn out well but he sorted it out prompto! BIG UP the good guy dealer's Cheer's Paul Woosnam

Ah Dan The voice of reason keep on keepin' on

Thank's for that Maria, I never know with my memory these day's :angry: It was really nice to meet you @Frankfurt(I'm the 'ole coathanger Syd's mate Paul (Paco) Woosnam) with my better half Mandy. PM us with your "spare" label's whydoncha! Cheer's P 'n' M

Didn't Richard Searling play it during the last Wigan day's(night's!) as Natural Four? Or have I got this horribly mixed up. PS Yes Chris counting the day's 'till Gladys!!!

Pretty sure Hamito-Semitica was first, got mine from soul bowl mid 80's. Think Rod Dearlove was selling t'other label a few year's later. Both legit, great record I think, used to play it @Scala 'nighter's back in the day As for value no idea but a lot of those soul bowl front "new and recent releases" page were limited presses(3-500) so it could be a rare(ish) one

Brilliant Ken!!!! Going off thread in the 1st post on a thread started by yourself! That must be a Soul Source first surely? Spot on mate (As usual) Cheer's P 'n' M

I'll have to check my other copy but I think it's 7t's Ken, sorry

Spot on Ken!

Seem to remember all the first batch of Alfie Davidson's jumped?

Don't want to do a Johnny 'n' Bragg.......................................but Billy Paul -A true gent' with an amasing memory, He can remember what He wore on stage 30 year's ago! Bunny Sigler-Still busy after all these year's Jean Carne-Sweet 'n' Wonderful, alway's Maxine Brown-"Oh you're English,y'all know 'Back door Kenny?" Jimmy Burns-"Oh you're English, y'all know Mark Bicknell?" Barbara Lynn-Couldn't do enough for you Roscoe Robinson-"Oh I'm so sorry I can't come back to your place'n' play record's I've got a plane to catch" Lou Pride-"This song was nr1 in England for 6 week's.........."I'm coming home..........." Leon Ware-Cool with a capitol K! Eloise Laws-Gorgeous! (and I've shared her curry!!) Norman Conners-He like's a good curry! Ledisi-"West coast soul songstress nr1" Alison Crockett-"East coast soul songstress nr 1" Prince Phillip Mitchell-Named after his dog!! Dexter Wansell-The man from Mars!!! Someone should interview this guy. The stories he can tell about Philly soul history should be told!! Nathon Heathman-Alway's with us............ RIP man

He's probably got a box of 'em Mark! What are you doing on here anyway? Long time no see/hear give us a call, it's high time we had a beer or six again. Cheer's P & M

Agree 100% good record. Try the other side "Mr Moonlight" sublime 60's with nice harmony's

Blimey you must have a big front room Jon!! It was a small function room above a pub but must have held 75 or so if I remember rightly. Danny Everard ran the night every Thursday from Sept 86 'till Dec 86 I DJed with Danny + guest's like Ady, Brian Rae, Pete Myles, Ivor Jones and other's. In fact we've just got home after a week in England and just read the thread, checking our post there's an envelope from our old mate Dave Warr containing a darn good comp' CD and a few old flyer's for the "Picton"! Spooky or what? One flyer say's "coming soon Darge,Buck,Coombes,Evison,Bicknell+more" Hopefully Dave can scan a few flyer's 'an put 'em up Think Danny fell out with the Picton's landlord or there was a change of management so the night"s ended, shame 'cos they were a good laugh and weekly Danny organised a Xmas special @ The George near the Angel and then I think started running Thursday's @ The Spread Eagle(Terry Jones) in Shoredich and doing his Soul Mission bit with Sean. Haven't read all this thread but seem to remember Ken was in attendance most week's. Thank's for starting the thread brought back some happy memories. P.S. Why isn't Danny"The mayor of Cornwall"Everard on 'ere?

It's a grower

Sorry Tony can't help with any info but, I would like to know if it's the same Carl Hall singing background vocal's on MAW feat' Stephanie Mills "Latin Lover''? If so it must have been one of his last recordings as it was released in 2001. Thought I'd ask your good self because you're so qualified I mean it baby Cheers Paul Woosnam

Have a spare copy, PM if you're interested Sid.

"Long gone lover" only available on 45 as B side to ''Come see about me" Dutch 45. Gone for over 80 quid on Manship's auction. Have a spare pic sleeve for 20 quid (mint) PM me or ask Ken......knew there was a reason for quoting 'im Cheer's Paul Woosnam.

Spiral Staircase sound's a lot worse today than yesterday(When it sounded crap!) If you ask me(and who did you may ask) The only version of this song I like is Patti Austin's

My mate Billy Anorak's got a lively hood.

basrarrd? Wot's that then? You old git

Good call Barry! Also love his version of "Summertme'' from "Muthas nature" LP. Was good to meet you at the Betty Lavette gig in A'dam. Cheer's for the dvd..... awesome!!!
