Only 3k people involved with the claim , they're lucky it's so few, the practice of shaking talcom powder on probably every child's body , since it was invented I'm surprised it not millions of claiments -
Order placed 14th , via Johns Discogs site , completely forgot about the 50% sale . 16th a 50% refund & a notice of both refund & shipped , 17th record in the postbox at the normal postage rate , in the condition stated , credit where credits due .

I'm sure it was used at the Casino if only to dry out the soles of your dancing shoes , after a visit to the toilets , and any venue with a Lino type dance floor .

I said I would ask him , if I bumped into him & whilst out walking Vincent our 6 month old Blue Whippet this evening , who got on rather well with Robert , I asked him how it came about that he sang " I've Got A Secret " etc . He told me that Ed Kassner ( of Ed Kassner Music Ltd. ) had sent his team a One- Derful acetate to listen to & record which he did . He honestly didn't know The Sharpees had previously recorded , the group name wasn't on the Acetate , not one of his favourite songs & admitted he struggled with the key , too high for his range . Just a quick footnote , I did tell Robert why I was asking him , & he gave his blessing for me to update .

Slightly off topic , The Chateau Impney is currently closed & in a sorry state , but plans are afoot for demolishing all of the ugly extensions that have been built over the years , restoring it to it's original beauty & functional rooms , & the building of over 100 new homes on the surrounding grounds , not before time .

Not a clue , but if I bump into him in Mr Tees , Kidderminster I'll ask him . When he stood in on 6 Music DJing ( not sure who for , may have been Craig Charles vacation) his 1st choice was , Vernon Garrett , Shine It On , probably on Stateside demo , which he told us it was probably his all time fave Soul / RnB tune . I know he has a collection of , at last count 1 million albums & 45s combined ( still growing ) & is a big fan & collector of the Ace/ Kent output , so he's never turned his back on his Soul / RnB roots , just choose to go down a different path experimenting with different musical influences & still is .

It was 2002 , she came I'm told directly from the Paris Jazz festival & had obviously brought that performance not a Northern Soul set , very sad to witness as the audience wasn't expecting what they heard and soon let her know , very upsetting actually.

What about the instrumental version , if your taste is more instrument. If the link is not working above , at least you can search for it on YouTube.

Dusty Springfield , Dutch release You Don't Have To Say You Love Me , are the titles of the other 2 albums.

My black vinyl copy is fine , haven't played my coloured vinyl copy but was a little surprised that it wasn't released in a picture sleeve , did ask Niall at Daptone UK if it was a possibility sadly no , so I made my own , using card & a sticker like an album sleeve , so should offer some protection , for years to come .

That looks like a work of art Karl , like one of those posters from Athena back in the 80s

I've not seen it anywhere to be honest, if on Facebook don't use it , & signed up for future releases / updates etc ages ago , still no word . Perhaps last night's emails where a publicity stunt , it's worked because we're now discussing it , & as the old saying goes etc ,etc

I have emailed them twice over the past year regarding any new material being issued , & there was a request by another SS member a few months back , for any info on what was happening at North Broad Street, as he was waiting for the last 45 . I didn't recieve a reply . It just seems very strange that multiple numbers of last year's M&J release emails are posted almost a year later . If you look on their site , it's now showing their latest release, Jimmy Ruffin , I Can't Stop Loving You b/w Cynthia Girty ,Prove it to me . Nothing has been advertised to my knowledge, & I have emailed them for clarification , as yet no reply .

Very strange I have just received 2 emails from North Broad Street , 1st one " A note has been added to your order " to tell me the order has been dispatched ( 20/9/24 ) & a 2nd to say " We have finished processing your order again dated 20/9/24 . Plus tracking etc all the details saying "Your order was delivered 24/9/24 . It was the Marshall & Jones , Sometimes Maybe . I've already had these notes etc in September 24 , I believe it was their last release , very strange

Absolutely wonderful release Barbara Long so bloody soulful & The Cautions give it a few spins , a grower , just saved myself £2K .

Hi Mark , Are there no plans to collate these contracts into a reference book , or are they one offs once sold that's it , the buyer owns a collectors item ?
