    Yes, I've been.......amateur night on a Wednesday night May 2000. Unforgettable! Cheers, Mark R
  2. I guess the confusion is that Seattle is in Washington state.......NW coast of course, and nowhere near DC. My least favourite place I've visited Stateside......and I'm surprised there's any soul to be had from there! LOL Cheers, Mark R

    Makes the thread title a bit of a misnomer mate doesn't it? "Fall from grace" probably a bit strong and infers a new found inferiority!! We should be clear the thread is JUST about values, and not quality in the grooves. M&M would be as expensive as they come if price were based on tune quality alone! Cheers, Mark R

    Mind & Matter...... I remember someone fairly well know saying to me once "I paid £1,200 for mine and I ain't gonna see much of that back!" There's always a flip side to the coin......the "find" was great news for mortals like me! Cheers, Mark R
  5. For somewhere like that, I would have thought most of the Hed Kandi CD's would be perfect. If i has to be R&B/soul, then the Soul Lounge box sets or Togetherness comps will do the trick! Cheers, Mark R
  6. Hope nobody minds this here...........not Oddfellows, but I can't resist making someone's day 'cos I know exactly how good it feels myself when someone shares these things..........the following uploaded a few months ago from one of my old tapes.......... https://www.mixcloud.com/soulboymark/hinckley-leisure-centre-all-niter-live-december-1983/ Clive Jones, from 38:42 after Brian Rae to 1:08:16 where Dave Evison takes over. Enjoy!! Cheers, Mark R
  7. My immediate thought was Clive Jones, but I didn't recall him DJ'ing at Oddfellows. Ally, gotta ask you.....was your stall just inside the indoor market called "Oddity Records"? It's so long ago that I can't recall exactly, but used to love visits to Leicester to your stall and Rudzi's place! Lot's of my early 45's, and possibly LP's, came from you guys! Cheers, Mark R
  8. It's just the time involved mate........Prestatyn radio show is next priority, but there'll be some of these on there I'm sure! Also, to be honest, I wouldn't just put an unmixed podcast together of just tunes so that everyone gets free music........not fair on the guys that make it! Cheers, Mark R

    Just thought I'd share the flip side to that Pharrell Williams 45............ Cheers, Mark R
  10. Dells @ Trentham. ....pretty untouchable! Cheers, Mark R
  11. Cheers Matt, yes KOT is a great record mate! Cheers, Mark R
  12. Thanks Steve....it does take a while to put together!! Cheers, Mark R
  13. Would have been Children Of The World Roots Mix but that was in last years. In truth I should have listed several cuts from it, as I did in ny weekly rundown on EMS, but decided to stick a pin in !! LOL Cheers, Mark R
  14. Just finished putting together my charts looking back at my most memorable cuts of 2013 covering soul and soulful/deep/jazzy on CD/12"/7" & MP3 etc so I thought I might share them here for the few with a liking for the new releases. The lists don't format well when pasted from Word, so I've just attached the jpg's instead.......click to open! Last year was a great year for new music............. Cheers, Mark R
  15. Funny innit, but not the kind of record I associate with people dancing in baggies to!! Winfield Parker isn't it? ..... Cheers, Mark R

    Backorder though Mart, which can sometimes mean it's been and gone and the order won't be fulfilled! Anyway, I posted about a new release vinyl record........not about value & rarity. I guess that's where EMS & Soul Source differ!! Cheers, Mark R

    Ain't that the truth!! Cheers, Mark R

    Andy, I spoke to Fish this afternoon and he told me that it is extremely limited and that he'd tried to get more stock and they were all gone! Bit of a story really......my email to him failed earlier today but luckily I realised and rang him............having talked to him I'm glad I didn't hang about and made the call!! Cue the buyers of multiple copies, instead of letting everyone lucky enough to get in in time enjoy a copy at £10 a pop! Cheers, Mark R

    John, you forget one important point mate............I just buy music I like, and it doesn't have to be for the purposes of DJ'ing or even dancing............that's an important fact to consider. I'll buy a full priced new release CD for a killer ballad if the track moves me. I do know what you mean about getting overplayed though! And interestingly, the fact that it's retro in feel makes no difference in my selecting a purchase............more often than not that turns me off rather than on! Cheers, Mark R

    Reviving the thread.......catchy as hell you have to admit............and if you're not sure I would just grab one while you can..........I was going to download it, so this was a very pleasant surprise: https://www.firstexperiencerecords.com/product-detail/Vinyl+Singles/64/Universal/Pharrell+Williams/Happy++Just+A+Cloud+Away/vinyl/4269 Cheers, Mark R
  21. No Dave, you've got it wrong...........it's original issue only.........unless the original issue isn't vinyl!! Laughable isn't it? And before anyone sticks the knife in, that comes from someone who totally understands and agrees with the OVO thing on the Northern scene. I just don't believe you can change the rules to suit without expecting to be ridiculed! Cheers, Mark R
  22. The original on this is the CD........fact!! Cheers, Mark R
  23. Thought I'd share this nice bit of memorabilia from the new M&M album artwork.......love it! Cheers, Mark R
  24. No worries mate.....Happy New Year! Cheers, Mark R
