Greedy Mick

My divorce came through the post on the day i was playing at Nuneaton. So i dedicated the volcanoes its against the laws of love to my ex.😁

It looks all good to me.. have seen plenty of demos over the years but i see more issues. I often play it in my sets great tune.. awesome intro the way it builds up

My guessesfor this are the New Yorkers. Dont want to be your fool. Or roy roberts for your love. .. probably wrong . Mick

If there is something cheap i want off discogs i often just look through their listings for other cheapies to make the postage costs more reasonable. So in my mind i get 2 for the price of 1. Lol

There are lots of sessions i would love to have been there to see recorded especially the professionals but i would give every record and everything i own to go back and see my mum and dad once more. apart from my 2 sons they mean more than anything to me 😊

I will never forget finding Mac Staten and the Nomads and uncovering it when butch had it covered up as Bobby Angele. Glad i wasn't dj'ing then in case he jumped onto stage took it off the decks and threw it across the stage. Noooooooooo lol

As it looks like a sprig of rosemary. Is it too cheesy to say Rosemary what happened.. or is it the bottle tops lol

Re joey dee i have always liked there other one on josie put your heart in it. Will try to find it later

Was talking about records (as we have been known to occasionally) and the conversation progressed to records i bought when i was 11 to 14. And i was saying that you never see them. Ie lillie bryant . Jay d martin. Gwen owens etc..im talking about the ones with mr in the run out.. i always wonder how many of these were pressed . Any ideas ?

Dont see many on lupine 👀

The obvious one to me is the skullsnaps as neither im your pimp or my hang up is you were released as singles the my hang up was only ever booted although it looks genuine.. another one is the mighty marvellos as it has a lot of good tracks including your little sister.

Ok had to wait till finished early today and had a rummage in the attic .. have attached picture of mac staten. Had to wipe the dust of first though.. hope this suffices. Kind regards Mick

All that matters to me is that that pic wasn't off discog lol. What do you need a picture of me my 2 sons all holding copies of today's papers while i hold my record whilst being independently adjuticaded by Mr Manship and a plethora of solicitors? ..just wondering?

Ha. I thought this thread was going to be about soul records found. Might have guessed otherwise.. i also found this mint unplayed

I found this for 50p

Hi i have seen 2 label designs for this(both on bay sound) one with the ship and one without . The one without has i need your love on the flip.. i have seen John Manship has one without the ship listed as a different label design.. i always thought this was a 70s reissue can anyone clarify this. Many thanks Mick.....

You say about people selling their collections.. Due to changes in my own life i now have a mortgage again and at my age it is sorely tempting to sell up so i assume a lot of people with depts etc are also selling.

Love this comment. When you have been into this all your life you are bound to diversify although still soulful. But this will make a few people smile whenever i have my records out and play anything but a stomper my son always disappears back into his room lol

I remember a record shop in mablethorpe as spent summers there at my mum and dads caravan. It was just off the main street on victoria road . I just remember all the recordsbeing at the back.. cant remember the name. Also there was one in cleethorpes on the road to grimsby. It might have been called Corrigans or something similar. God knows how i remember that. Mick

Sorry Geeselad.. I didn't try to come across that i was the only one who got into northern this way its just that my son thought it was interesting . Mick.

Hi all as you know my son kevin is into the scene and he asked how i got into northern. When i told him he said i should share the story..... in 1976 i started at my local comprehensive school . For you who dont know we all had to do lessons we didnt like, for us boys this was dance and drama!!! This all changed in the 2nd year when we had a new dance teacher start. She started playing all these singles with coloured labels and big holes in the middle. And started showing us all this energetic and 100 mph dancing with spins backdrops and floorwork. Unknown to us at the time she went to wigan (she explained about all nighters and dayers as we got into it, although i would be 15 before i got to to wigan) and could see all us kids bored of the drivel played in the charts . As we got to know some of the tunes and moves one of the most boring lessons became the most looked forward to.. at the same time the older lads on the estate started to have all dayers on a sunday at our local boys club.. and that was it i was hooked on northern .. the dance teacher was only there for about 18 months. I cant remember her name but would love to meet her to say thanks for getting me into something i have loved for the last 40 years..

How much is a proper one worth with the squiggles that look like 3 w's back to back?

Hi just found a scan altthough it is on cal soul it also has the words kay dee. So keb must have had something to do with it as this is is his label like the bamboos tighten up.
