Anthony White - Stop and Think It Over

Rita Graham without her Tiaras. The single is a boot I think.

One of many great tracks

The best version

Another good version of this by The Miracles album only

For Sale 105 copies of B&S mags plus The Motown Story with missing cover. A great way to start a collection and I've had them from new. Starting with issue No 80 March 1972 through to Issue No 230 July/Aug 1977 There are some missing in the earlier numbers so the sequence isn't continuous, but most have been read once and then stored and are in good condition considering their age. They will weigh quite a bit so I think posting is out of the question and would probably be best collected. I am Wirral based in NW UK so could meet up within reason They seem to sell on ebay for anywhere around £4 upwards each. I would sell the whole lot for £200.00 Please PM if interested. Kev

Just a few that float my boat

That's the one! Taught me everything I know about soul music and I'm older than him 🙂

My older brother (by 5yrs) was into John Mayall, Cream, Hendrix and my older sister (by 4yrs) went out dancing and bought records like Jimmy James - I feel alright, Oscar Toney Jnr - For your precious love, Marvin & Tammi - Ain't no Mountain, Otis Redding etc etc. Because my dad was attached to the forces we moved around a lot, so although I was born in Cleethorpes, I never lived there. When we settled in the north west in 1968 I was 15 and went to the local youth club which was playing Lee Dorsey, Jnr Walker, Stax, Motown, Atlantic. All readily available stuff. Then one day my cousin came from Cleethorpes to visit, 1969/70 I think, and he brought a little box with him that had Mamie Galore, Major Lance, and loads of others that I can't quite recall now. I was hooked. While writing this I keep meaning to ask if anyone knew my cousin Phillip Dade, he has since passed away. Running alongside that I became friends with another soul fan John Clement and we went together to the Raven in Whitchurch where Soul Sam was dj 1972 I think. This was the first northern soul venue we went to. After that it was Wigan, Blackpool, The Ritz, The Orwell. The whole time we were collecting records playing them down the phone to each other.
