That Charles Bradley release on Daptone 'Now That You're Gone' is also incredible that it was recorded in 2003, porduction is spot on (although a funk record with soulful vocals, not really a soul record as such)

Neither of them work for me! This is horrible!

£80 M- mulf@mgv.co.uk cheers!

Paulette - Love You Babe please pleaase please btw are the dealers there Thursday night???

Always been somewhat partial to: Kym Mazelle - Was That All It Was South Street Players - Who Keeps Changing Your Mind First Choice - Let No Man Put Asunder Tacha Sevelle - Loves A Sensation Classic yes but great all the same.......

I found the Vestax held up to the Prestatyn test last year pretty well stuffed full of Duracells. Wasn't incredibly loud but loud enough........

Sort of on the same topic I found an old tape the night before last at home that just said 'Shit Rare' on it, no idea where it came from. On the train in to Charing Cross this morning I had Mel Britt, Little Tommy, Ray Agee, and then Voices Incorperated. Pure class. Looking forward to 6pm so I can found out whats ont he rest

Its true. The blokes an utter tool. But if he turns up a Paulette I'll kiss his arse for it. No such thing as pride here when it comes to the rare soul On a serious note though he is just frankly rude. I've also had the misfortune of 'conversing' with him via e-mail.

Beautiful

I like having the ones that are previously unreleased recordings like Debra Johnson and The Charmaines.......

I've been after this for ages too, great record!

Hiya Many thanks! haven't recieved anything yet but it may be because of my ropey e-mail here at work Cheers again though

please please please can someone help me out with an mp3 or soemthing of 'Our Day Is Here'.....all i can get is half of it off Manships..... Joel fingers crossed mulf@mgv.co.uk

Garethx> Do you have the Winner 1970 cut of Lift This Hurt by Elvin Spencer?? Its superb...(I *think* it had a release under another name too but the same take)....well worth checking out if not... cheers Joel Also Marc: Toni Try My Love Ten Star Little Tommy Baby Can`t You See SOS Ree Flores Look Into My Heart M&H Little Stanley Outa Sight Loving Dick Vance Nice selection back to back!!! I'd have needed resuscitating after this.....

This has recieved a few plays on the mod scene, not loads by any stretch, it is a £20 - £30 pound record apparently. I got mine for that price although the labels are a bit battered. I'd give £40 odd for a mint one as its a superb dancer. I've also heard it spun once at the 100 Club. I think the price rocketing on the bay is more to do with recent Deep Funk radio show plays and interest on that scene.....maybe James T might know more?

Rogers instrumental The Kontets (I think thats right) Willie Mitchell - The Champion Frank Foster - Harlem Rumble

Gwen Owens - Wanted & Needed.

In no order: Little Tommy - Baby Can't You See - SOS Toni & The Showmen - Try My Love - Ten Star Paulette - Love You Babe - Contact Bobby 'Guitar' Bennett - You Did It Again - Junior TC Lee & The Bricklayers - Up & Down The Hill - King Little Kenneth & The Rhythm Makers - You Can Go On Home - Carl Sydney Barnes- You'll Always be In Style - Red Bird Gerri Hall - Who Can I Run To - Hot Line The Appointments - I Saw Her There - Delite Al Williams - I Am Nothing - Palmer

Goodluck with the Paulette (the title of which is actually Love You Babe) I've been after one for nearly two years. Not 100% sure of price, I've heard its gone up. I'd want £400 in my grubby mitts at least, for a mint one. Shifty had one on a list a few months back £250 in vg condition......take from that what you will. What a ridiculously brilliant record though. Pure magic.

Is this the thing on IPG 'If This Is Goodbye'??? If so mine is a crimson label, on vinyl I believe, but I'll check it properly tonight.....haven't played it for ages. Not sure why anyone would boot it?

Dayo> I work in the West End for advertising agencies editing their test adverts, and believe me, none of them are savvy when it somes to good music. The reason its done is exactly what Mikey said. I understand there is nothing you can do to stop it (although I once managed to stave off the use of Marie Knight and Sugar Pie deSanto on something although I doubt they would have tested with those tracks on) but it still fills me with horror everytime I hear a great record used as filler or backing to some peice of banal television, like a man wallpapering for example. Surely these records are worth more than that? If they are going to be used by the media by all rights they should be being lauded as great undiscovered peices of music (and the right money going to the right people) not treated as another bit of backing filler as you would with perhaps 'Shuddupayaface' or 'Pass The Dutchie'. I know thats slightly in the realms of fantasy but its only because of the love of the soul records really. Cheers Joel

I think its atrotious that records of such quality can be mercilessly abused for the sake of a bit of cheap television. I know they mean more to us than the rest of the population (and we just have to live with it etc etc) but it still makes me want to hide behind a cushion with my teeth gritted when I hear a record like that plundered. Felt similar when hearing The Delites on 4's Wife Swap. And when they splash Sue and Prestige stuff all over Changing Rooms and crap like that. I can handle it when a record is used well and has been specifically chosen......one of the few cases is the use of Derek Martin's 'Daddy Rolling Stone' in 'Sexy Beast' with Winston. That was tastefully done and well chosen. I don't subscribe to the idea that hearing a snipett of The Trends on a tacky ad for an even tackier programme will have flocks of new people eager to discover the scene. In fact it probably went mostly over their heads, therefore use Britney or some shite like that. I'll be popping my soap box back in the van then. Cheers Joel

This Hymes discussion reminds me of the Elvin Spencer record 'Lift This Hurt'.......the one on Twinight is no where near the earlier version on Winner. Apparently theres another version or the same release by him on a different label under a different name??

Gotta agree with Matt on this re: young people finding their own style. Thats what I did and still am doing whether I look shite on the dancefloor or not....... ......also a venture like this is bound to cause cynicism, it would be odd if it didn't particularly in this current climate of northern soul adverts and cash ins. Still fair play to the fella, his own dedication to the scene can't be questioned and if people are interested then what else is there to say?

Hello If anyone has a VG+ to M copy for sale please can you drop me a mail at: mulf@mgv.co.uk Cheers Also I have a mint Johnny Wells - Lonely Moon - Astor for sale @ £50 if anyone is interested.
