I have a W/D of this. I would have said about £20-ish. Great record though Phil

Two different ABC pressings, one just the same as HOTB and uses, I believe, the same stampers. Stampers wear out so they must have had them re-done, so must have sold quite a few copies Phil

Mine's on and I'm out the door

Yep. That is one guy who will deffo be late for his own funeral

Vernon now living in Bolton, but gets back to God's Country now and then. Phil

How much are you lookinmg to pay? Phil

Four Tops now sorted! Still looking for the others. Phil

Must be in VG+ or better Please PM with price and condition Thanks Phil

Is J D Bryant still available? Cheers Phil

Surely the legitimate release of such sounds is better than, and in no way the same as, the bootlegging which was so rife in the 70's and still to an extent goes on today? Phil

He's obviously been out in Yorkshire Malc Phil

I'll never buy another record again unless there's a description at least as detailed as this one. Phil

I didn't even think the original would fetch any more than that! I have a spare orig. Might put it for sales given this madness. Might even fetch over £100! Phil

bump!

Was always happy to have you on board Mark. Happy Days indeed. Remember the BBC invasion really well. Had the entire front room decorated by Vernon prior to them coming That was 23 years ago! Phil

Hi Alison, The HWSC was initially me and a mate, and we ran the first nighter under that banner in October 1987. Crofty was part of the HWSC set up from the 3rd nighter (after "persuading" us by .... well it doesn't matter now, it's a long time ago) The niters at Queens Hall ran under HWSC until first part of 1991 (when I got collared by the Inland Revenue) and it became After Dark from then. I got a bit disillusioned by some of the "politics" then and rarely ventured to any kind of soul do for a couple of years or so. HWSC ran all niters 5 times a month for most of 1988,89 & 90. Vnues included - Bradford Queens Hall, Burnley Thompson Centre, Bolton Town Hall, Hinckley Leisure Centre and Leeds Astoria. In early 80's After Dark ran all-niters at Queens Hall in 1982 & 83 before moving to Bensons Bierkeller in late 83. Chris Burton ran a one-off all-niter at Queens Hall in 1985. This was very badly attended and Chris did one at abou 3am and left most of the DJ's and door staff unpaid Queens Hall was first (to me anyway) put on the soul map via the alldayers that Ivor Allen used to run in the late 70's through to early 80's. Place is ruined now, but some great memories persist. Phil
