  12. Tis a tune will pick mine up this week , another brilliant release .
  13. Great article look forward again to this release everyone so far very special imho. The research and presentation of the 45s is also a treat keep it up Alan.
  14. To me this is the ultimate gesture of a true soul family . I loved my conversations with him sometimes tempered but always well intentioned . He could never get his head around all the nonsense of classifying genres etc , to him it was just soul music . That museum now will be incredible well it already is but now mind blowing . His interview with Walter and the admirations always blows me away I loved sitting in the park , he brought it all to life away from a insular UK 🇬🇧 Scene . Looks like Bobs lovely family have truely respected his wishes, I’m so pleased !
  15. Its a wonderful 45 and the information is a classy touch. Both sides raise the bar again but I would expect nothing less get in quick folks.
  16. Digging in the Texas Triangle 2019. Here we go again since 2007 along with fellow collector Gaz Simons we have regularly visited Texas particularly the Austen Record Convention. The 2019 trip was special because fellow collector Colin Denham was joining us on our adventure. This was Colin's first USA Trip and he was dying to get stuck in. Adding a bit context to looking for records in America this century is very important, it is by no means the “Golden Age” many soul luminaries have visited this magical state over the years from the seventies onwards and bore fruit way beyond our possibilities. Our moto has always been enjoy the State and buy records you like, in our case it usually means them lovely xover and sixties things we have never bothered to pick up in the UK. if we stumble on a bargain then “hey ho” but the purpose of the trip has always been “the adventure with good friends" meeting collectors from all over Europe and having “great crack with lots of good times in between" and of course a few bevvies in the lovely Texas Heat. So the itinerary was as follows - Fly from Manchester, early Saturday Morning into the great city of Houston. Stay overnight taking in the great craft beers at Sugarland and many bars that the place is famous for. After a hiccup with the Hotel and booking we were shipped to another Hotel about 2 KM from where we booked. International “Man of mystery” ie BIg Baz put a complaint in and boom, the first night was refunded. So a cracking start to a great week! Sunday Morning up early, a little worse for wear and off to San Antonio, a magic city and a full day planned to include hitting a few spots for records. It was very hot today and “a hair of the dog” was required to get the joints moving again. We showed our face at Alamo Records having visited the last 4 times and was as expected greeted with the same level of apathy we first encountered 13 years prior. The owner has sadly turned into the worst type of Victor Meldrew you could possible imagine, how he manages to take money is beyond me and we pretty much decided he was not getting any of ours. The place has gone back a lot our visit bore fruit all them years prior but really only worth a visit for lps and his prices a little silly anyway. Quick refresh and we hit a few Vintage Stores in the afternoon and done reasonably well, prices pretty much as expected nothing rare but a pretty decent start all of us agreeing it was worth taking the time and spending little on UBER Fairs for which Gaz paid lol. On the evening a great meal at The Riverwalk, a real culinary delight and a great place to visit. Gaz and Colin however bit into the hottest chili in Texas and it meant we had to retire earlier than usual taking cans and tunes back to the hotel. A great second day and rounded off by playing the records we bought and watching the American Football. Monday Dallas bound for 4 nights we know the City well as Gaz is best friends with our host and I played Rugby with him also. We knew that a bender was on the cards and did not disappoint ending up till the wee hours of the morning and on the whisky. Records would have to wait tonight. Tuesday and a number of Vintage/Thrift places in the Dallas Area were visited and we done quite well, we know the crack reference this place now and carefully navigate to the unexpected places always finding a few gems including a few rare xover things including the 21st Century and Lee Jones and the Sounds of Soul for a cracking combined price. In full swing Wednesday was on us quick and we wanted to take Colin around the sites including the JFK Museum in Dallas, a place that gets you thinking differently every time you visit. The evening was an absolute scream entering the quiz team name as Mike Hunts Mellly ,do not say that too quick lol and coming a respectable third out of five teams lol. Again whisky and tacos ended off the evening and by now Thursday was on us and we were gearing up for the Austen Record Convention and getting a bit excited. Up very early for Austin still dark and a 4 hour drive to our usual Hotel the Radison (downtown) the venue has now changed for the fair so literally we could walk there from the Hotel “if Carlsberg could do trips this was one of them”. There is some great information reference the history of the fair which can be found here https://www.austinrecords.com/about.php . Having visited regularly you never know what to expect. As collectors we have seen big records bought and sold here over the years however we don't go for big records we go for soul records of all prices, persuasions and genres. Some notable absentees this year including Craig Moerer, Records By Mail, it's quite possible he was there on the Saturday, however still loads of dealers from all over the USA so lots to go at. It was no coincidence after various finds that we ended up going through thousands of records from a dealer from Trenton NJ who we had never seen before. For the pricely sum of $1 each all three of us bagged some great records out of that lot all different value all worth so much more. It was great to bump into Kitch, Mace and Richard Free, 3 collectors of high esteem, as collectors you never ask what other people get you just generally acknowledge even after all these years there are still records to be had. Lots of Modern Soul/Boogie sold for plenty of dollars, as usual we done well for sweet/mid-tempo and also brought plenty back to sell. Friday evening we had a lovely Thai Meal with Kitch and Mace catching up. We then ended up on fifth street before getting back to the hotel and toasting each other to great times, friendship and the great state of Texas. So in 6 Days Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Fort Worth and Austin. Not bad going for three lads from the north east of England, who still believe that records can still be had in the USA despite most people's expectations. Baz A July 2020
  17. Just got it there are simply soul records on this compilation to die for ! Jerry Washington Zilla Mayes George Jackson Eddie and Ernie as usual the quality is of the radar no 5 has set the bar even further which is a brilliant for those who love their deep soul fix !
  18. Very sad a real talent and God Fearing women-loved her sense of humour also,one of the many soul singers reaching out via facebook and loving the the posts of their many 45s .She will be missed.
  19. The soul explosion sessions had some of the best albums ever made imho,I hope that people who have never had the opportunity to sample these get them in this format,there will simply blow you away.
  20. Fab cut brilliantly recorded got mine this week,sound quality of this is off the radar.
  21. One of my fav group harmony outfits and John Gary immensely talented-my fav mad lads cut below but to be honest I could of posted 20 or so up. A sad loss and one for the numerous tape swappers from the eighties that featured so many of these under played and vastly underrated cuts on !!
  22. To me the Dells were the ultimate showmen - I did not realise untill I saw them at Trentham Gardens how utterly polished there were. Every step identical absolute icons of soul music to see live you could of killed me that night and my life would of been complete. When there did this record below I was in tears it was just beyond belief and still resonates with me now. I thought to myself there is the soul movement in Britain with all its history of venues,mad prices of records,a scene etc then there are bands like the Dells who just stand above it all and shine and bring you to your knees and give you that real taste of Black American Soul Music and their were the masters of it. RIP Chuck
