Woodbutcher

Depending on how many the bootlegger's got tucked under the stairs that is ...

As seen on 45 and the info from Anoraks Corner.

Good call sir ... Have zoomed in on it , flipped it and that looks pretty much what I see , have "filled in" some gaps to get this ...

Jeez , that's about as nasty as a white pop record gets , so glad I "missed out" on Wigan ...

Or on a more 'house' theme as you describe ... ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N83L1Zdse-Y&feature=youtu.be

May be just that most folk out playing on the dancefloors aren't on SoulSource to vote .... and vice versa ...

#2 ... Charles Earland ... ?

Tweaked the Boot pic to bring it a bit closer to the Real one ...

Well at least we'll have an archive of any markings there are on the boots ... And if Mr Massey or Mr Rimmer were to offer up runout pictures off originals then there would be a perfect reference that can be used by prospective buyers in future , and be included in any future publications by Mr Manship for example ...

Some close-ups of the runout details on the pair of them would be nice , seeing as you have two of them to hand ...

100 Club in September , 36th Anniversary , superb night as always ... the hair stands up as you descend into that heady atmosphere every single time ...

Roger Banks , Saus and Irish Greg for me ...

Buddy Conner ... ?

Maybe if you'd read the 4 posts previous to yours ...

If it was just a Soul scene promoters would be quids in , the venues could be downsized and in most cases events could be held in someones living room , plenty of comfy chairs to sit in whilst chewing the fat regarding matrix details etc , cheap booze requiring no license , nibbles on tap , no extortionate security costs ... and no need whatsoever for a dancefloor ... Oh hold on , that's all available without even needing to visit someone else's house , you can do all that on-line via SoulSource without even stepping out into the fresh air . For the rest of us it'll remain a blend of a Dance scene and Soul scene , requiring travelling and a dancefloor thank you very much ... ! And now I must shoot off for something to eat before a trip down to Braintree for this weekend's dose of All-night Soul and Dance , albeit not necessarily in that order ....

Bet the seller's spitting feathers now that the bidding's stopped so abruptly , I messaged him regarding the listing and his reply was pretty short , on the lines of "what do I know , I sell games not records" ... so no sympathy coming from this direction ...

No ... it's worth about £25.00 ... it sits at £144 because bidder "S***-" thought it was real and was about to snaffle the steal of the century ... now he's done a little research (or seen this thread) and got out before getting his fingers burnt ... leaving the other poor sap with the bill ...

https://www.popsike.com/soul-funk-45-DON-GARDNER-Cheatin-Kind-What-Now-My-Love-on-Sedgrick-HEAR-re/141401431549.html Got to £146 at one point then that bid disappeared and it reverted to £144 , seems as though some have seen sense ...

Guessing from your vigorous defence (and the addition of extra info not in the original listing) that the seller's a mate of yours ... ?

It's the opening paragraph that has me baffled ... a few gaps methinks ... ?

Going to be "Comedy Sale of the Week" methinks , already topped a ton ...

We ought to start running some kind of sweepstake on the side of some of these e-bay listings , tanner a go to see who gets nearest to the finishing price , winner takes all ...

I don't doubt it for a minute , only decent pic I can find is in JM's Million Dollars book which has nice crisp print and a pronounced 'dip' ... There'll be some red faces if it is though ... Mind you the boot'll probably make £500 if recent activity is anything to go on ...
