Has this been booted on Arctic 152 ? TIA Happy New Year to each and everyone of you. Julian

I'm not getting involved in this discussion other than to say two things. 1. I totally agree with Brian Phillips and his recollections - let's face it, if he doesn't know, who does? 2. Spent one night there in the company of 'Docker' and Les Cokell - they spent 8 hours discussing soul music and I think I'd heard of about 5 of the records mentioned by them!!!!! It was after this 'memorable' event that I decided to start collecting seriously and got my first DJing job at Lord Jim's in Huddersfield. Those were the days. Also on the story of the Ad Libs - Franny O'Brien and John Bollen used to borrow Dave Godin's copy and bring it Lord Jim's, Vic Lounge, that pub in Keighley who's name I forget and other places in West Yorkshire for us to play. Happy times Julian

Now then boys, put those handbags away!!!! If you read Brian Phillips post earlier in this thread he CONFIRMS that MGW was played at the Wheel. End of discussion. Hope you and your families all have a great Xmas and New Year. Julian & Carolyn

Hi Rob hope he's bought one already after my post of 1st December!!!! Hope you're well. Meery Xmas Julian

pm'd you. Julian

Does the Atlantic 3 track 70s re-issue of this have the same track as the UK Stax issue (not the live US thing)? TIA Julian

Show off!!!! Mine's a crappy white demo Hope you're well. Julian

Anyone got a scan please? Also, have this been booted? TIA Julian

Absolutely correct Kegsy I did however get him to sign my copy of The Boomerang - I wonder if anyone on here has this 45 now? Julian

. DARROW FLETCHER...THE PAIN JUST GETS A LITTLE DEEPER JUST PLAIN OLD GROOVY..........I would have given anything for a UK LONDON DEMO JULIAN once upon a time but nrver got one. did you? GEORGE TINDLEY AINT THAT PECULIAR WAND DEMO. To be absolutely fair I asked Julian if he discovered this but he didn't know. In all sincerity I think he did. At Hernies in Leeds. c.1971 (I mean that bit ) Hi Swish yes, I have a yellow Demo on London - it has a typed title and 248 stamped on label with a blank yellow label on t'other side. Pretty rare I think? Still can't remember the George Tindley discovery but I do remember playing it at Hernies! Cheers Julian

Hi Nige yes, thought about this as I couldn't remember it being played. However, I did discuss it with Mr Minshull and he told me it had been played hence me adding it to my playlist. Mind you, Keith seemed to be in a world of his own on the day:D Cheers Julian

Think I played these;- Tymes - Here she comes UK Cameo Parkway WD Hoagy Lands - The next in line Stateside Barbara Mills - Queen of Fools UK Hickory Sandi Sheldon - I'm gonna make you love me Okeh Johnny Moore - Walk like a man Date Cindy Scott - I love you baby Veep WD (for Ian Cunliffe and Jane) Tomangoes - I really love you Washpan Susan barrett What's it gonna be RCA WD Jo Armstead - I feel an urge coming on Giant demo Geoge Carrow - Angel Baby ( Don't you even leave me) Columbia RW demo Little Richard - A little bit of something Columbia Four Larks - Groovin at the go go Tower WD There may have been a couple more but I can't remember:( Julian
