I'm pretty sure TOTT, Takis and Rowntree's were all owned/run by the same family

i remember 'Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys'- The Equals...shaking the place to pieces about 1971. TOTT- right next door to Spin Inn where i got my B&S mag's from.

Thanks Nicola, but it's the flip written by Tom DeCillis(I'm the Girl') i'm after.

Hi anyone help with a soundfile/youtube of 'I'm the girl', R1514B ( the flip of Marion Stewart's 'The man I love') atb

Yes the list (as it appeared in the Motor Town Review) is less than half the SUE UK discography.

there is one on JM presently

I was rummaging through my stuff for a future Connections thingy I was preparing…and got side tracked with my copy of ‘From Hitsville U.S.A. -The Tamla Motown Show’. In particular, the SUE Records list (as scanned). And thought, what is the rough value of all these today? (as sold). I applied these simple arbitrary ‘rules’… Where it was listed on Discogs, I took the Discogs Median value for each Where the Discogs Median wasn’t listed, I took the lowest Discogs price for sale (if there was one). There was 6 (Six) of these Where there was neither 1. or 2. I took the most recently known price (e.g https://www.popsike.com, www.rarenorthernsoul.com, https://collectorsfrenzy.com, etc). There was 7 (Seven) of these. Where there was neither 1. 2. or 3.- I took it as 0 (Zero). There was only one of these. £1634. Hope you find it interesting?

Hi Roburt, was the Salford (Venue) one in Little Hulton? rings a bell, but maybe for a different reason!

great watch...thanks for sharing Rob

great watch...thanks for sharing Rob

It's a bit of fun...please take it as such. Can you add any to the list?

I guess you may already know this, but Daryl ( and John Oates) have history with most of the musicians coming out of Philly, and the respective studio's of Sigma, Virtue, etc. They both played on Electric Indian 'Keem-O-Sabe' 1968, Marmaduke ( as well as others sides) with what most folks regard as " The Philiadelphia Funk Brothers"

This might have done the rounds as a topic, so forgive me if so. What record would you have wanted your favourite Northern male/female/group (dead or alive) to have covered- that is Non-N.S. Maybe (...only maybe) exclude some obvious one's e.g. Beatles/Lennon & McCartney, etc. P.S. thought it a bit more light hearted than recent topics

Well Steve, I can only speak for myself. I've never 'bought into anyone's way of life' for anything. Not then- and not now. I jettisoned the scene for many reasons, some of which are highlighted in this topic. And although I might not have witnessed first hand how things have evolved over the past two decades, that doesn't mean i lost touch or lost that feel. There are always people keen to cash in-and civilians keen to participate. Most of us know the differences.

Hi Russ It's just worth a quick mention that returnees(retreads) can also have been 'theoneswhowerethere'...but not maybe for the whole time. It doesn't follow that returnees make for a Div (by any definition).
