I think this will be the first Kent disc to perhaps get to £400/ £500 the 40 years is a huge thing but I can honestly say the quality is utterly incredible! The Mikki Stevenson cut is brilliant and the flip side is bloody great also . This just follows a general trend of quality going for money on new release 45s and Kent Select release will make no difference imho collectors want these discs .

Eh up pal hope your well that would be great mate tell him to drop me a message etc !

Wigan trying to accommodate ? Remember this was 16 years after the first wave. I suppose the casinos attempt to accommodate was the Mods Mayday all-nighter May 79 which was absolutely rammed . I recall also buses from an oldies night going to the first Scarborough mod meet in 79 and causing a whole load of chaos also ! The two scenes have more or less been intertwined since the Twisted Wheel in one way or another and what that revival done was brought a more discerning crowd back to the casino at a time when the numbers were not good, lots of these were of course old Wheel visitors well “according to them lol ! It was a great time but short lived however the feel for sixties soul was carried on at Stafford etc so in a way it helped . I also think at the time it was part of a big melting pot soul Wise and no one blinked at the casino if you had your suite on lol ! Pic of me below early 79 waiting for the casino bus, a good 15 of us or so always went suited and booted at the time !
