When we returned to the 'scene' around '98 we went to a local soul event with Judi and Alan (RIP) Pollard. One of the promoters said to my wife something along the lines of "who are you, why are you here, what do you know about soul music?" She looked him straight in the eye and said "sorry, who are you? I don't remember you from the Twisted Wheel". He beat a hasty retreat!! To be fair, he did later apologise and he and his wife became good friends.

I always thought that if you had a 'big bang' then the result would be expansion in all directions, like a bomb blast or drop of water into a puddle etc. Can anyone please explain why we can look back 13 billion years to nothing/ creation of the universe but there does not seem to be anything on the 'otherside' of the bang? Sorry if I'm being stupid. I am genuinely interested in the answer.

still looking

See it on ebay as well. Unsold and relisted at higher prices. Both UK and US sellers!

Which side would you request? Might play it at Hitsville Mojacar in September!

My copy has not seen the light of day for 15+ years!😇

Think it was the first time I'd spun it in 5+ years. As I said, it was a request. Hope you're well Julian

Played it as a request at Hitsville Benidorm. Filled the floor👍

Original copy on Mercury required. If you can help, please pm with condition and price required. Cash waiting. Cheers Julian

I took Simon Soussan along with Chris Tipping who financed his trip (His dad owned an engineering company in Leeds called Tipco Tools on Gelderd Road) and a so called 'minder' who couldn't fight his way out of a 'wet paper bag!' to the Cats just after he returned from the States with his brown leather suitcase full of his 'finds' ( I was at Chris' apartment when Simon arrived there and opened the suitcase for the first time!) Bloody wonderful experience 👍 Obviously I knew lots of punters there but the atmosphere got a bit tense and we ended up 'legging it' out of there. I did remonstrate with Graham Warr, Pep etc when next I saw them. Anyway, we beat a retreat up the M6 to the Torch and as they say, the rest his history.

On a slightly different note, Martin Barnfather bought loads of stuff off me in the early 70s that didn't sell to the Mecca/Torch crowds as they were the wrong tempo for the period. I've often wondered what was in there!

Hi Chalky, it has: P-965-A O monarch triangle 59431 and then something that looks like IRL B side: P-965-B O monarch triangle 59431- X can't see the IRL thing but my eyes aren't what they used to be!😟 Hope you are keeping well. Cheers Julian

Big discussion on here about this a couple of weeks ago. Boot ordered by Martin Kopell

Is it different from the west coast press. Do you have a photo? Cheers Julian

Seller must have 'found' more than one copy!😂

Ronnie back on ebay as BIN. Maybe it never got paid for or sent back?

Got these two on Hot Lead Records. The Owen Gray label states an address of 10 Victoria Road, Thornhill Lees, Dewsbury, Yorkshire. I can't find any information on these, can anyone shed any light on them, who was behind this label, value etc. TIA Julian
