Is This A Boot
Judging by the tiniest label details it looks exactly like the latest one on Popsike/Gripsweat , which lists it as being from a UK seller ... ?

It pays to ask the question or do a search on here before pulling the trigger.

Boot. The printing is pretty poorly done , no crisp corners and not 'black' lettering. Real one to compare.

I was underwhelmed by it , but I've read all of CJ Sansom's Shardlake series of books so I was over critical.

Worrying AI development
The easy way to tell will still be the physical item the "discovery" was made from , whether that be a 45 , acetate or master tape. None of these have been succesfully replicated/counterfeited to a standard to fool close scrutiny yet , so unless some magical AI robot suddenly appears to do the authentication then there'll be no worries on that score. And even if there were no bugger would believe its findings ... That's not to say that the youngsters down in the west country won't embrace these with open arms.

Doesn't need AI to prompt those feelings , humans do a fine job too. I don't believe half of it now , and haven't done for years ... And some of the most outrageous bullsh*t I've ever heard has been at 3am at all-niters ...

There were 'garage' scenes in the 60s and 70s way before the name was nicked for the 90's genre.

Aurora alerts going through the roof for tonight.
I'm with you there sir ... although the thought of trying to photograph the Sun going back to using an SLR and film again and all the ball-ache that that would involve without a laptop doesn't fill me with joy ...

Be careful what you wish for though , an event matching "The Carrington Event" in 1859 could easily severely damage power networks on Earth and easily render satellites inoperable thus sending us back to the joyous pre-internet days of simple living ...

Aurora alerts going through the roof for tonight.
No more no less , it's over a year now since we saw the great show that was visible to the eye at low latitude in the UK , that was my first sight of the aurora here or anywhere in sixty-odd years. The data side has improved exponentially over the years , but at the end of the day it depends on what occurs on the enormous fusion reactor 93 million miles away , if the outburst is strong enough , of the right type , is facing in the right direction , at the right time , reacts favourably with Earth's magnetic field , at the right time of day and when we have clear skies then we see the aurora , if just one of these parameters is off then we don't ...

Aurora alerts going through the roof for tonight.
Well it appears to me that thanks to its intense but narrow front and its speeds exceeding 1000km/hr this eagerly awaited CME has washed over us largely unnoticed thanks to its timing. Better luck next time ...

Really ... ? Billy ShaRae has the same backing as September Jones - I'm Coming Home ...

Eddie Parker - I need a true love - same backing as??
Someone in a YT comment reckons it's the same as "Billy ShaRae - Do It" though I can't hear a similarity myself.

Very strong solar storm (G4 !) predicted to arrive tomorrow. Sadly it looks like being a daytime arrival for those of us in the UK and Europe but it might well last until it's dark here. Fingers crossed for all my friends in more favourable locations , here's hoping you get a great show and that we might catch the tail end of any display. The video shows the cause of all the fuss.

Best LP only northern soul tracks?
Too kind sir , whilst there are a few individuals left on here that have encyclopaedic knowledge of these things I just have an internet connection and access to a great thing called Google. It's in fact Soul Source's own extensive archives and sites like Discogs and similar like 45Cat that have all the relevant information ...
