I enjoyed the times when it was ran under the Soultown banner as well. I think it was Guy Hennigan running them at that time.

At the end of the day if he is not happy with the purchase, he should be able to send it back for a refund. I have had to refund lots of records for all sorts of daft reasons!!! It is just something that goes with selling records by post!

I would never refund until I got the record back. That is the usual procedure in record buying and selling surely?

The Way Of The Crowd - Dan Folger -Elf Promo. USA original 45 of this great record. Condition is a nice Mint- £100 plus £7.50 Special insured delivery.

Put the record on the turntable using a centre piece. Take it out. Then put the record arm above the record ready to cue down onto the record, but don't drop it. Look down above the arm and spin the record slowly by hand. You can them move the record grooves onto centre, using the record arm as an eye guide. It works for me.

Hi Joe, Have sent you a PM.

Was there any need for this kind of depressing negativity, especially when it is off topic! Also your very much wrong! Connie Clark is a great record, always was and always will be to the people who were there in the golden years, and to those who appreciate great 100% Northern Soul!

Frank Wilson was a brilliant songwriter, arranger and producer of many great Motown classics, and that's where his strength laid. That's what's missing with todays music. There will always be people who can sing well, but most of the great writers/ producers like Frank Wilson, who served their time in the 1950's/60's music culture of the USA have gone!

With his short haircut and singing "Do I Love You" he could be turning into a Soulie!😀!!

John Powney sold a copy to me for £8, but those days are long gone. I think it goes for about £300 to £400 now. On auction who know's🙆!

At the risk of being a bit silly because it got into the charts, I still like "You Don't Have To Go"!

"She's Mine" - The Chi-Lites- Blue Rock.

The alternative version with female backing singers, of Deon Jackson's "I Can't Go On" on Contempo. https://youtu.be/rD1ErfabEl8

I like them both in different ways. Some Motown records are better than some Stax records and some Stax records are better than some Motown records!

Yes I have always thought the Grapevine release a better cut than the original Karen. It doesn't have that heavy guitar to spoil it! It is the other way round with Ronnie Love "Let's Make Love". The Almeria original is a much better version than the Grapevine cut!

As mentioned earlier I think Deon Jackson's "I Can't Go On" with the female backing singers is a great version. Maybe that's why it always commands a much higher price than most other Contempo records!

Also Tamiko Jones Contempo version of I'm Spellbound" does not sound as good as the Golden World original. It sounds like she re-recorded it! I was told she recorded it again in the 70's, for Contempo while here in the UK. I don't know how true that is!

"Stay Here With Me" - Sandra Richardson - Inter/Soul. Condition is a very nice Ex+ Sold. Original classic 70's Soul from Detriot. You tube link just to hear this great tune. Picture at the bottom is the copy for sale.

After reading this article it seems that the person who brought the records over from the State's was married the writers daughter Eugene Davis. Could Eugene Davis of had them for years but had never been able to sell them! The son in law didn't get them made for the Northern Scene, he wasn't into it and it wasn't known. Maybe he brought them over to the UK because he thought he would have more of a chance of selling them over here.

There is a GM scratched in the run out. Then a quarter of the way round from it there is an R scratched in. Further around Flaming Arrow and the release number is scratched in. The vinyl is not the modern flexible type. It is vinyl, but not very flexible. It feels like an late 60's early 70's type plastic.
