Loads of overpriced unsold 45s on Discogs.

I'd only start to worry if they were offering smashed avocado on artisan toast with a bean curd dip.

I've got the Correc-Tone and had the Sonbert. I'm 99.99 % sure same track.

I bought a copy sometime between October '72 and end of Feb '73. From Ralph's in Manchester. £1-2 I think. Looked like orig but no doubt wasn't. No idea if it was the legit repress or if it came from Soul Bowl. Rick cooper on here might remember Ralph's having them in.

Scal tells me it was Rich and Fred Kape from Long Island.

Out of six US eBay buys last month at M-/NM three went back to seller.

Anyone got a cheap boot or reissue whatever. Thanks

I tended to avoid Rich having bumped into him at the odd record fair. However, in the area, myself and Scal [on here] dropped in at his Stroudsburg place sometime early 90's without realising it was him. He might have recently moved. He was surprisingly convivial and pointed us to an outside shed telling us anything in there was $2. He more or less stuck to his word only charging us $5 for multiple copies of James Bounty. Got quite a stack off him. 100+ easily. Scal has a better memory than me. Highlight was Rich and Ed Kaplan having a massive barney outside whilst we were going through the shed.

I remember him from the Highland Room. Used to see him about with Robert De Niro.

Essential. cold, with stuffing for turkey sandwich on Boxing Day. Or onion sauce will do just as well.

It were me. "Sister Lee" was the other.

Right now you can get 3 t-shirts for £22. Wear them inside out and you've got a cheap M otown & S oul logo.

Better is subjective, Mick. I think it'd be hard to beat the record bar area at Wigan for those who were into buying and selling 45s.

I think it was the early 70's when Godin asked readers of his B&S column to write to BBC to ask for more soul music coverage. I did, and to the best of my recollection, the answer was that the demographic didn't warrant more exposure. At the time I assumed the demographic referred to was based on colour rather than class.

You missed one. "A political tool to challenge the dominance of middle class theatre" Sure that was the title of Richard's Obsessives c/u

I went once to the Levenshulme venue. '69 I think as I went with a guy from school and he didn't stay on after Sept '69. Back of his SX200. Venue was on main road from Stockport to Manchester. Not far from a bikers cafe. Sure it was a weeknight and played overwhelmingly soul and Motown. From memory it wasn't a big place.

It's getting mush too mush.

My claim to fame on the dance floor is being with Dave Raistrick in a club in S.Carolina back in '81. We'd found a copy of "I'll pay the price" at the Wax Museum. I got the dj to play it and hit the floor. The odd spin and backdrop and nonchalantly glided back to my table. Then these girls started to come up complementing me on my footwork. To Dave's amusement they seemed to think I was a fantastic shagger. Once he'd stopped sniggering he noticed that some of the guys were not that happy with the attention I was getting and he thought it best we leave. Which we did rather hurriedly to avoid any unpleasantness.
