What better place to ask for recommendations for 7" record boxes than on Soul Source. I'm looking for something a little more sturdy than my trusty ADDA case which has served me well, but was never what I REALLY wanted. Has anyone got one of those from our friend Mr. Manship? Seem a little pricey but that's the kind of thing I'd like, so if I have to pay that kind of money then well, needs must!! Any recommendations on that style of aluminium lockable box? Sort of 100/150 count or thereabouts? Would also prefer one that I can put little padlocks on, rather than built in locks which might not be up to it..........but that's getting picky, as I'm sure some of those with built in locks are robust. Strong, secure and water (beer!) proof is the priority. Cheers, Mark R

Result!!........

500 pressed.......... Cheers, Mark R

I'll let you know mate...........ordered from Z website last Friday so expect it any day if it is pressed up ready to go. I suspect it will come today/tomorrow as I'm sure Sean had a photo of a box of albums on his Facebook page! That Tom Noble thing came back in at Juno yesterday.....very high demand so i bagged one of those whilst I could! See you at SU buddy...... Cheers, Mark R

Absolutely essential...................... https://www.zrecords.ltd.uk/product-detail/Artist+Albums/46/Z+Records/Sean+McCabe/It%27s+Time+%28Extended+Versions%29/download/332 But in truth you really need the CD or download option too, or you are missing some of the best tracks.............like "Who's Fooling Who" and "Love For Life". Cheers, Mark R

Steve Potts from Nottingham maybe? Cheers, Mark R

Does anyone understand the review in Soul Survivors magazine better than I do? Cheers, Mark R

C'mon Stevie.......we're waiting! Need that Soul Sam Mind & Matter review if you find it in there too! Cheers, Mark R

Alright Steve? Remember that bootleg back then? Enchantments one side and Rodd Keith on t'other? Cheers, Mark R

No.....and I hate the fact that some people I know just don't understand that there's anything other than Northern Soul when I talk soul.....quite sad really! ! Cheers, Mark R

Like I say....atmospheric.......43:30 here......Clive Jones...... https://www.mixcloud.com/soulboymark/hinckley-leisure-centre-all-niter-live-december-1983/ Cheers, Mark R

It might be a pop record, and I'm all for maintaining the soul content, but accepting that the Northern scene hasn't always concerned itself too much with that I have always thought of this record as a NS dancers dream of a record.......atmospheric, the drum rolls, break down etc. Love it.....of its time.... Cheers, Mark R

Covered up as Kenny Smith "And The Lord Said"........the Lordy bit being the Kenny Smith connection no doubt. Cheers, Mark R.

Always loved it.......Kenny Smith "And The Lord Said"........that tinkly piano!! Cheers, Mark R

Sorry.....I can see the confusion........that last post was relative to the thread elsewhere, not anything you'd said! Cheers, Mark R

I also like the bit about being happy to come on hear and say it's ordinary at best!! Like I'm supposed to be concerned about my opinion agreeing with others? Not this man! LOL Cheers, Mark R

Really interesting to come on and read that Pete, because having posted earlier I was reflecting on this, and whilst I now can't get the hook out of my head, I couldn't sing the verses in my head......haven't a clue, which probably says it all for me! Cheers, Mark R

I would say it's grown on me slightly since first hearing it (Yarmouth?) many years ago, but I still don'tt quite get the fuss......and probably go along with the "if it wasn't rare....." statement. And it's ironic that this is used as an example to define a soul fan from a NS fan, because I'm very definitely the former but if I posted an example those on here who say they're soul fans would almost certainly disagree with my choice!! All things are relative and some on here only think it's soul if it's pre 1980 or if it's new, sounds old! . It's a bit of a mess of a record with a memorable intro and hook...... Cheers, Mark R

Would love to see some of that dialogue........ Cheers, Mart R

Ordered last week. ......arrived at weekend. ....no problem! Cheers, Mark R

Not really sure mate......copies been and gone.....I think the likes of Discogs is your best bet. Good luck! Cheers, Mark R

Labronzo McDonald.........£6 well spent IMHO! Cheers, Mark R

Funny you should mention Eddie mate........the one thing that struck me whilst watching the film was that the Precisions at £10 matches Eddie at £7k all the way for me! You can guess which one I have in a box and which I don't! Funny old game innit! Cheers, Mark R

And that's a truly great thing Ian! Cheers, Mark R

I thought it was great......so much of it resonated with me. One question though - was there really much swearing on a mic in 70's? I mean I know what Keb was like in the 80's and I noted that Guy was DJ coach to the film (as an aside this pleased me as I've said publicly before that IMHO there was no better deliverer of a gritty 69's tune), but was this really prevalant in the 70's. Anyway, I digress. What a triumph! Cheers, Mark R
