Four Flights " All I want is you " sounds nicer on 12 too .. not got the Brainstorm on 12 , will try to here it !!

What's your favorite 12" .. King Tutt " You got me hung up" Alfie Davidson , or Love man Stokes , I would say Bill Harris on RCA but I'm not sure it actually exists Simon

Yep an 82 must purchase from the Bowl love the Start ..Uuuuurrghhh Simon

Martin Aka Soul Sam must be over 60 now ...Truly amazing

And spinning around soul ... Very dangerous and sometimes fatal accoding to Ian Dewhirst on deejay history

Yeah me old mate Robin Salter listed it too . 80/81 The modern scene was born. Searling Sam & Fenn etc.. I have been told that Glyn Thornhill has a book in the making about the scene in the 80's Simon

a zillion years ago there was only Blackbeat

Thanks Mart

MANIFESTO, PO BOX 313, GLOUCESTER, GL1 5YW, UNITED KINGDOM Is this the right addy for the mag Simon

PS.. I also like northernsoulradio.co.uk , always three nice modern tunes and I can listen to it whenever I want .

Yes very true . I started the thread remembering that era , but it went astray

Richard Searling Smooth FM ... great show Simon

Ronnie Barnes " You got me" Hughes ... It was in Soul Sam's pile and not mine at Soul Bowl

I think Simon T ,might have one on here

Yeah I know Baz ... However just for the thread this is an oldie , check Kebs shows on www.soul45.org he Introduces it as an oldie . Hundreds more oldies like this btw all probably packed away in modern collections Simon

This is a well known Oldie . Just ask Robin S and Simon T

Too true , I blame record dealers and promoters for all these labels

Yeah well modern was born from Northern ... I hope Glyn Thornhill gets his book out on the birth of Modern Soul soon .

The only thing better than Vinyl is a life performance or a studio thingy ...( Who remembers The Memphis Soul Revue when Marti Pellow got Wet)

Ok, maybe a 40 year old record that's been kept in good condition sounds "pretty good", but a 40 year old cd (even though they are not that old yet would be truer to the original source. The reason your 5 year old cd has skips is because it was not stored and handled properly and the surface has become scratched etc. This happens with vinyl too though it will actually play sounds that are not true to the original source. A cd will play only 100% or nothing And therefore Vinyl is more resilient. A big plus

Well you'd think it would be extinct now !! Deejays and collectors still use it so I guess , thats why its still around . people should have a choice IMVHO . .. 12" EPs should be cut from the CD only releases for us Vinyl Junkies ? Simon M

If ya got todays Big sounds , Manships gotta be best on the Auction page ...

Vinyl is king because in my experience a Cd can f**k up and that's it you cant recover it a laptop with all your downloads ie 30 gb of pure soul can crash and not be recovered , Ipods can die too ( There was a TV prog on it ??) Analogue sound is cool to these ears ..Vinyl Deejays and collectors keep it alive please.

Yep , Thats right ,
