Come experience the great dance floor, a fascinating film about Barbara Dane (who passed last year) who had such a great hit on the R&B / Northern scene "I'm On MY Way". Niamos is our own unique mini Casino with a fabulous dance floor with plenty of room for energetic dancers and a huge backdrop suitable for screening films on the big screen, and a great atmosphere - has to be seen to be believed .

  2. The ones that are on ebay have been there for a long time, they are from an earlier reissue - or probably a boot (not sure) but I think certainly were an unofficial reissue. For identity purposes most of the ones on ebay if you look at the picture of the almost identical label (they have middle cut out) and the running time is 2.40. The official new reissue from Gregmark the running time is 3.16 and far superior recording. (also with centre in - at least the ones they are distributing in the UK have the centre in). NOTE: I reference my old question here from November as now that I have the new one I can tell the difference so just answered this for other people's reference if anyone was wondering the same thing.
  3. The issue from Gregmark actually doesn't have three tracks. I thought it would have as the digital version streaming does but the physical 7 inch doesn't.
  4. Got mine today. Sounds beautiful.
  5. Looking forward to getting my hands on the upcoming limited edition reissue.
  6. Great to see young people enjoying them selves at soul events again. I go to lot and its 99% old folk like me. I wish I could understand what the commentator was saying though I guess he was just saying how good it is that the scene was enjoying a revival with young people in London - which is great - its been going on a whilst I guess the German TV have only just heard about it so its news to them. When we were young we hated that news stuff and commercialism but I think now it needs it as we are all getting on and we may not be here in another 10 - 20 years, So long may the scene last forever. Keep the faith.
  7. Is this the same issue that many people are selling on ebay at the moment? Looks exactly the same but this says its not shipping up mid Dec. Is is shipping from USA or UK> As the preorder sales is in dollars but shipping is only £7. Confusing.
  8. Anyone got a clean copy Ex + of Leah Dawson / You Got To Change (Your Evil Ways) on Big Time (or will consider Okey demo) - that you would like to off load.?

    Anyone seen KNEECAP yet? Supposed to be the best Indie film around at the moment. Going to see it next week at my local.
  11. Anyone got a copy in at least Ex condition?
  12. OMG,, that brings back memories. Loved the ritz. What a brilliant night this was, The tunes just amazing. Absolute corker!!! We can never create nights like this again, then can. never be the same, even if you played the same tunes, would never be so magical as this was. Thanks for posting.

    First visit to the cinema in a while, yesterday when to see DRIFT which I enjoyed. Very moving story that slowly builds up to it what happenned in this woman's life, slowly teasing us a long the way. Two solid female performances. Indie British film for anyone interested. DRIFT TRAILER Next two films that I still haven't seen which I will do next week, the Bob Marley One World film and Zone of Interest.
  14. I don't know where he gets it from that this version is listed for £800 in DS? There is one mint copy listed (this small 45 version) for £150. He sounds nuts to me! I see he has ended the listing now and re-listed it at £100 with 70s reissue in the description.. The Ebay police triumph again!
  15. Oh yes I remember reading that post. I was surprised to even see them sell at £55 to be honest especially the one drawn on. Is it the same guy who bought it of you who is selling it now?
