Another bug on the Activity stream here Mike. I scroll down through the first page no problem , but when I hit the "Load more activity" box to load the next page it's jumping from about six hours worth straight back to May 1st's activity and nothing inbetween ... ?

A nice visit from one of my favourites on her way home to the IWM Duxford ...

Fill your boots ... lol

Well you were running up against the best all-niter in the country and argueably the biggest oldies bash over in Stoke. ( not to mention a myriad of pissant little events )

IRMC.

And getting funnier by the minute ...

I can't believe that the opening game kicks off at 8pm and is being shown live on ITV ... Surely Germany v Scotland is going to be a double figure bloodbath and therefore hardly pre-watershed viewing for anyone north of the border ...

I thought the "Still Game -The Slosh" video was amusing , I'd not realised just how scarily similar it is to that dance class clip ...

What's it even doing on a so-called 'soul' forum , it's utter sh*te ... 🙉💩

I heard you the first time , but it was not the 'late' 90s as I and many others were wearing out shoe leather to it down the 100 Club and elsewhere in the mid 90s ...

I meant it was earlier than the "late 90's" as you suggested .

It was a monster for Shifty in the mid Nineties ...

No , they're a lot more durable than you might think , my Hayes Cotton - Black Wings acetate still plays fine after hundreds of plays since it was cut in '66 ...

Usually those posting tracks that don't have the actual 45 to play , just an mp3 lifted from the net or a CD , so they have to grab an image wherever they can find it.

'Tain't yellow whichever way you spin it , just someone's hamfisted attempt to brighten the image , same as the one on Gripsweat. This is yellow ...

I've never found this mythical yellow copy on YT , a very low resolution , washed out orange label image yes but no yellow ... Put a link up to this alleged yellow one please ...

I'm just desperately trying to erase the image of Zoe Ball and Marc Almond making babies ... 🙈

? ? ?

My favourite was someone insisting that Chris Clark - DILYIID was in fact Dave Evison's missus warbling over the FW backing track ...

It's not just the artists/label owners Dave , there are plenty of folk about that are still spouting the same nonsensical tales they were told at 3am at a niter 40 years ago , whilst off their proverbials. A larger pinch of salt is needed as every year passes I find.

No worries fella , I'm supposed to be clearing brambles in the garden but it's just started raining ... shame that ...

I did quite clearly say 'general industry standard' ... I think that 'thousands of demos on issue copy labels' is over-egging it a bit , the three you mention are all clearly labelled as DJ Copy -Not for resale as well which the Villige 45 lacks.

If this doesn't scoop the "2024 Troll Post of the Year" award there's something very wrong in the soul world ... 💩 🙉 🤣
