Thanks for posting Martyn, I do like the B -side myself. I do wish I could suss out how to put the links up on here.

Five I enjoyed hearing played out recently at a Soul night on Bournemouth Pier. Bobby Womack - So Many Sides Of You Two People - Stop, Leave My Heart Alone Ronnie and Robyn - As Long As You Love Me Four Tops - Is There Anything That I Can Do David And The Giants - Ten Miles High

The Frank Wilson spin has without a doubt introduced a lot of people into Soul music so surely that's a good thing.

This still floats my boat after all these years, The Voices Of East Harlem - Cashing In

Hi Grant, yes I have a copy now thanks. Thank you for asking anyway it's appreciated.

I know you do Pete, it's Barry here off facebook but keep it to yourself.

Thank you for posting Pete, some great sounds there Sir.

Not the most popular of tracks but I was as sick as a parrot in the late 1970's when my copy of the Mystic Moods - Astral Trip got a burn hole half way across the record it had been lent on a small light on a friends twin deck unit which I never imagined was hot enough to cause any damage.

I am after an original of Herbert Hunter's - I was born to love you In good playable condition please.

RIP Al, what a wonderful artist. Hard to pick my favourite but I will go for Mornin' loved it from the first ever time I heard it.

Thanks for posting Mike, nice one.

One of my first ever buys the 5th Dimension - Flashback

Fantastic sound, and a great dancer.

Thank you for posting this up Mike, very sad news about John Schroeder. It brings back memories for me of buying my first ever single which was John Schroeder - I'm Going To Change in the late 1970's off a good friend, I know it isn't the most Soulful of songs but boy it certainly was my first step into getting the taste for Soul music which has never gone away from the night I had that record in my hands.

I played it out a few times last year at my monthly Sunday Soul nights held in a pub on Poole Quay Dorset, a handful of the regulars that come along went to the Casino and love hearing some of the old favourite's from Station Road.

Not a promo copy of Dean Parrish but I have just had an original issue copy arrive over the weekend from the States, having been trying to get one for months. With the post it's cost me around £155

That's typical, I did see it today on there but didn't notice how long it had to run.

There's a nice copy on ebay Chris, might be worth a look.

Thanks for posting that article on here Pete, I couldn't read it on fb with my dodgy eyesight.

Old Station Road Favourite, Rain - Out Of My Mind

Dee Clark - That's My Girl

Couple of nice bursts of Piano on the intro of the Skull Snaps Classic - My Hang Up Is You.

Top Drawer Piano Intro - The Isleys Brothers - Highways Of My Life

Same here, grabbed a copy from my Pals at discogs, must strike while the iron is hot!

Classic Stax spin from Mr Johnnie Taylor - Who's Making Love - and still cheaper than a portion of Chips!
