Why Do You Like Soul?
I like other types of music too, especially Reggae/Ska. The Soul side of me is because i'm the kind of person who just loves the emotion in the songs. Another man's heartache alway's makes you know that you're not alone with your pain. We've all felt vunerable and been hurt by love at times in our lives, Soul captures these moments and records them onto vinyl.

Willie & The Mighty Magnificents On What Not To Wear
Tis' true! I know a guy who works for the Beeb, he's a bit of a greboe, and he samples Jr.Walker & all stars tracks (sax solo bits)for use on some of their programmes. However, I know some guys in the business (TV) are well into Northern & Ska. When you think that most of the producers are now our age group (30s/40s) it stands to reason really. 'Wife Swap' (last years anyway) was full of Northern, and that geezer 'The City Gardner' had a Northern background score. Look at the Ska in the ads too!

Ebay Scam
I've had several, latest ones say.."You've sent me $50 in paypal, why?". Sent a couple to ebay, rest I scrapped.

Oh Sh*t
Be honest and upfront with him, tell him the mistake you made on the 'snipe'. At least this gives him a chance to offer it to the buyer before you (second chance offer).

Honest Ebay Seller
So, you're saying he never sent the record in 2005!

Soul-provider The Sun Today
We were all discussing your age at work today, could'nt believe you were 37...we thought there'd been a typing error!!!! Sorry Steve, I will explain to the lads tomorrow I promise ok. I thought it was ok, I quite like the Dolly Parton tune myself. I think the article mentioned those mainstream artists because those are the only ones 'the great unwashed' have heard of (from a UK perspective anyway). One guy at work is a massive Helen Shapiro fan and was amazed at her name being mentioned!

Major Lance ..investigate..okeh
Boots have 'The Beat' on the flip, originals have 'Little Young Lover'.

Asassins - Nicer Girl
Thats the one mate! And I did buy it. So am to presume both tracks are previously unissued?

Asassins - Nicer Girl
Popped into my local record store today, vedor had some new bits and pieces that never really interested me, then he spins this UK Goldmine demo of The Asassins - Nicer Girl (Philadelphia recording)...what a stormer and potential monster! The group sound like The Agents so could be a c/up. What I want to know is..., Is this a previously unreleased track? Has it been out on any Goldmine vinyl before? How come I aint ever heard it cos' IT IS THAT GOOD!!

Group Records / Las Vegas
Well, put my claim in and what do you know...I get a begging e-mail off him today! Promises me that if I withdraw the claim he'll post the records.... Told him to spin...."send the records and the claim is history"!!!! Fair deal I think. Waiting for reply...

Showstoppers - Ain't Nothing But A House Party
Don't forget the Inferno release with the brilliant previously unissued 'Gotta Get Closer To Your Love' on the flip.

Wayne Fontana In Trouble
have you tried the flip of 'Come On Home'....'My Eyes Break Out In Tears' is one of his best Northern tunes!!! Full on atmospheric stomper with breaks.

Lies Lies Lies
I like that one..
-
Group Records / Las Vegas
Ok Soulman, I agree with you totally so am gonna start proceedings. From what I can remember, paypal gives the seller a chance to respond first anyway. Sounds to me like he owes money to ebay for selling fees etc and he's using OUR money to pay these off!!

Lies Lies Lies
"Large putthehoop yoda"........

Lies Lies Lies
"LIES".....it's almost too obvious!
-
Group Records / Las Vegas
Thanks for that soulman, I've still got a few weeks grace before putting a claim in via paypal so will give him 'till then to sort it out. If he doesn't come up with the goods, no amount of begging is gonna stop the claim going through. Btw, he actually sent me A LETTER through the post! What a f****** waste of stamp, envelope etc.....just stick the records in the post!!!!!!!!!!

Tomangoes
What about if you only collect original British releases??? The Grapevine UK 45 must be up there then!?
-
Group Records / Las Vegas
Well, wouldya know it! I got a letter from them (Group Records, Mamie Giattino) this morning asking me if I have put a claim against them on paypal to please withdraw it and then they'll send my tunes (yeah right!)..Well, for starters, I aint put a claim in against them (yet) so why waste time sending me a letter when he may just as well posted my records!!!

Group Records / Brooklyn-born
Update: Got an e-mail at last off Mamie & Joe this morning, apparently they owe some funds to ebay and are suspended until paid up. They have promised all records will go out on Friday. Interesting about the Prix stuff Sean, the Joe King & Eddie Ray are 2 brilliant tunes!! John
