Baz Atkinson

Hello Jeff hope your well mate best to you and yours mate!! BAZ A Hi Baz...great record i played this at the coachman last year and it went down well........see you soon jeff

Tom most of the talent from Chicago and Detroit ended up in Philly in the mid seventies -sigma studios esembled the A LIST of whos who -thats why the sound is so distinctive imho,not to mention the wide acceptance of Philly inmternational-there seemed to hit the nail right on the head with incredible soulful mixes which had mass appeal!!! BAZ A One track I particularly like from this era is "Where do we go from here?". Probably around 1974 ? Really great vocals right across the scale and that brilliant Philly sound from that time. Why was the Philly sound so memorable from that era ? Was it something to do with Music Studio where it was recorded, the production team, the session musicians - or all of this ? Cheers................. Tom. Banbury.

SIMON GETING READY FOR THE WOMBLE FACTOR IN ANTICIPATION HE HAS GONE BALD AND JUST ORDERED HIS SPENCERS SOUL BAGS!

By far one of the funniest threads ive ever read -pmsl on a dull over-worked Friday the wombles of wigan lol,makes me want to go to costa and knick a patch and start a revolution,i reckon SIMON COWELL is on this thread now planning the WOMBLE FACTOR -f--k me the perliminarys would be funny all those rejected 50+northern types smelling of sweat and getting there spins mixed up, "yes i think you have talent butyou could of at least sqeezed another spin out and wow that back drop" tell me did you have any formal NORTHERN SOUL DANCE TRAINING "? AH CHERLY SAYS -HES CUTE ISNT HE WHAT A LOVELY TATTOO AND BALDY HEAD -WE SHOULD LET HIM IN ANYWAY,Simon says oh go on then me little geordie chirrup -maybe his back drop and double splits will be exposed when we speed up the volumme in the next round and get them to dance to linda and the funky boys on an escalter on the way to GREGGS for a pastie!! THE WOMBLE FACTOR -!!! GET YOUR NAME DOWN NOW !! BAZ A

To me its a record that puts it all into context -it moves me to the core along with choice of colours,people get ready,and wake up everybody,you could write a book on these 4 alone and their affect on a myriad of things.Awesome version by Al -looks like AMAZON HAS BEEN BUSY TODAY!!! BAZ A.

ive got numerous contacts for New Jersey mate if you want to cross the bridge and get out of the big apple-Lou Silvani at times square is cds now so no luck there-used to be downstairs records on 42nd street but fleeced in the early nineties with numerous others!!Id just enjoy the city to be honest!!!tHE DIRECTORIES ARE GOOD -i dug loads of contacts out for Mick H when he went -ill see if I still have them- BAZ A.

Dont mess about Baz ,Get to the point:wicked: Take care bud ATB salmon HOW YOU DOING MATE DROP ME A PM TO LET ME KNOW. BAZ A

some crackers on there strong recommend is the peoples choice on vernoeeca-awesome dounle sider-cant see that been n long for a tenner!!! BAZ A

Always lock my wants for the following reasons 1.i take pms and negotiate -the purchase of a record for me is between the buyer and seller 2.let the thread run and usualy someone has the four penneth in about rarity-availability-price-etc-well "so what" and then the record is talked up or down and it becomes a free for all-a good example was the lee fields thread and some of the ridiculous bollocks wrote about the record. 3.a deal to me should be private -i also when i sell are more than happy not to respond to emails from people asking who has got this or that-simply no-ones business!! 4.and ofcourse people say there have the record and dont respond to pms !! BAZ A. PS IT IS UP TO THE INDIVIDUAL OFCOURSE SOME PREFER THE CRACK AND BANTER OTHERS JUST PREFER TO GET THE DISC AND GET IT IN THE COLLECTION.

pmedyou!! BAZ A
