Yes I get that, watching the last episode today after which I will look up the case and hopefully get some perspective on truth and fiction. Gripping as you say.

Binged watched the French crime series Sambre Anatomy of a Murder based on a true story about a serial rapist. My only downside being it says the series is meant to be a tribute to the victims and not factual. This led to discussions between myself and Lou at various points as to whether this or that actually happened as some instances of police incompetence and indifference were astounding. One scene in particular led to lengthy talk on surely someone in the station would have questioned or had second thoughts, if you watch the series I'm pretty sure you will recognise this scene in particular. That said excellent acting, gripping story line well worth a watch.

Someone on the comments says it is Stefan Taylor if you look on discogs there is a video of Stefan Taylor, same song clearly a different singer but... I'm not sure on this other's on here will have a better idea but is the older black guy who appears in the video Tommy hunt? It shows him a couple of times.

If you are interested in the history of Hungary and Budapest we found The House of Terror museum to be very good, frightening what people will do to their own citizens. You do though to get the best out of it have to spend time watching the various videos so if your time is short best to give it a miss and stick to the sights. Great pics by the way.

Just binge watched the second series of Colin from Accounts, on the iplayer kept up the standard set by the first series.

I think the hyperbole can have a reverse effect to the one seller intended when you come to realise every record they are selling "has plenty of legs left, under the radar, played by those in the know" etc then when you listen to the you tube link most to my untrained ears are pretty average at best. Are people taken in by it I'm not so sure, yes it might make you look and listen but if you're prepared to put aside what you are hearing and buy just because someone invokes a fear of missing out on the next big thing you probably shouldn't be buying records in the first place. My memory might be playing tricks on me and I may be wrong about this but there does seem to have been an increase of tunes being relisted as "reduced" due I guess to as you say over inflated prices on first posting, maybe the answer to your question lies there.

I can't answer your question but interestingly the TMG 498 was used on a mocked up Motown demo for sale last week on ebay which was also Brenda Holloway Before You Break My heart on one side Barbara McNair on the other. It had a solid centre but poorly photocopied to look like it had a four prong centre. Enough people were interested to take it to £40 with postage.

I've not seen as many Butterflies in the garden this year, not as many Bees on a bush that's usually full of them when in flower. The fields opposite my house have been the hunting ground for a Barn owl for the last few years. I'd see it almost every night flying back and forth, often settling on the fence directly opposite. Sadly the other night I saw it being harried by some kind of Hawk, they both dropped to the ground out of my eye line. Haven't seen it for about four nights which is unusual. Hopefully it's maybe been spooked by the encounter and lying low.

You are right there, gave it the full monty on the BBC this morning, shame I thought it was going to be something really special and was looking forward to one of your brilliant moon shots.

Hope the weather is good for you tonight, just seen there's to be a special moon tonight, look forward to seeing any pics you might take.

I wouldn't call it fresh and bright personally, nice enough but not much different to the original.

Love and Death on ITV has been excellent , being a true story trying to resist looking up the outcome.

Bass Weejuns are another brand at the lower end of the market, I found a pair in TK Maxx for next to nothing, never seen them there since mind.

I had a similar conversation with my new neighbour about a year ago, they moved in at winter time, come summer I was playing some vinyl outside. My neighbour popped her head over the fence saying "I didn't know you were into this stuff, my dad died recently I gave all his albums away, if I'd known you could have had them". Story of my life.

Check out Delicious Junction, I've had a pair of their leather brogues for around 5 years. They have a sale on a the moment. Cheaper than Loakes, that said I have had a pair of Loakes fir a lot longer and still in fine fettle.

Pretty much an epic fail after listening to a snippet of each tune, very much a one trick pony in this instance, devoid of any soul whatsoever. Thinksmart pretty much nailed it.

I've bid on his auctions in the past without a problem, won a few., It does seem he has his problems with ebay , I'm pretty sure he started off as plain Modboy and has progressed through 1,2 and now 3 usually blaming a problem with ebay and his account for his change of name.

A popular one on ebay, " very rare" = chart soul from the 70's hoping you won't see the multitude on discogs for less than the start price. a good one my mate saw "original re-issue"

There in a nutshell is why it would be a short set, when charity shops first became a thing you could often pick up decent music and the odd rarer British release. These days there are people like yourself in the know actually volunteering and hoovering up stuff before it hits the bins. I know one personally and of two others. I've no problem with that perk as long as a fair price is paid . The last vinyl I bought from a charity shop was about six months ago, right place right time, a shop that sells everything with the mindset of a quick turnover rather than a high price tag hanging around for weeks though this will change with an imminent move to larger premises planned soon. A box had just come in, I fished out Ronnie Milsap on Us Wand, Aint No Soul, a red Champion pressing of Tainted love, Ramsey's Wade in the Water, Ike and Tina We Need an Understanding, about a dozen ,can't remember the others. Nothing too exciting but a few upgrades to my existing copies and the others to give to mates who still have small collections but have sold the majority. At 10p a throw it made a nice change plus being regulars and knowing the staff I did point out they were selling them too cheap, albeit too late as the woman hovering behind me heard the price and when I'd done she bought a stack of them. Before you ask, yes I did give them more than the 10p asked, as Jackie Lee sings, "Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide". My aforementioned mate on the other hand working in the shops, well over the many years he has volunteered if he had not sold on the majority of his finds he could have played a very decent set. One tip I learnt from him which came up trumps many times ,always ask if they have any vinyl in the back, you might just get lucky.

Saw one this week described as "underheard".

Only just seen this Mike, I did once put a search in for a record and emailed the seller not realising the post was several years old. when I realised I messaged him saying sorry just seen it was an old post . I got a reply quite quickly saying no problem I think i still have the record, seller sold me the record at the advertised price even though it had increased slightly in value. I would think it does not happen very often. Worked for me on this occasion but if I had seen it was an old post I would not have asked. I think is probably a good idea to lock off from a certain point in time, maybe even less than 2020, I was lucky the seller the late Andy Bellwood was a real gent.

Welcome , look forward to your posts

I thought AI initially assumed the vocal was Diana Ross, further searches brought up this being discussed on Soulful Detroit. https://soulfuldetroit.com/showthread.php?20365-Supremes-amp-Stevie-Wonder-I-ll-Wait-a-Lifetime-Demo

A few documentaries worth a watch. Really enjoyed Tricky Dick on Sky documentaries about the career of Richard Nixon, a masterclass in smiling while lying through your teeth.Also Fugitive:The Mystery of the Crypto Queen on C4. Attica :Americas Bloodiest Prison Uprising on BBC4

Welcome, enjoy
