Trojan Records On Soul Scene
Oh Yes! my copy is actually on the all brown TROJAN label from 1972. Just added this to one of my home compilation 'This Is Jamaican Soul' cds, had it in the car the other day (the cd you filthy minded lot!) and thought what a fabulous piece of crossover soul this is!

One For The Record Dealers
Had to laugh at the description.... 'imports' ???????? since when does popping out the perforated middle section of a UK record make it an import? He does live in London so NO EXCUSES!!

Taken Me 35 Years To Find This Record
Absolute classic in the Rocksteady genre! A want for most people who are into this stuff, me included! The Uniques (with Slim Smith) are one of the best groups to come out of JA, so soulful. I've got loads of UK Island but not one Uniques 45 on this label, they always get snapped up! What's on the flip Pete? Bet it's a good un' too!

I Love My Postman

We gave a free CD at our last Dukes Head in Kings Lynn....no problems if anybody wants to copy for a friend...after all, once it's yours you're free to do what you like with it. I just look at as publicity for our events!

Need This Toon
It wasn't 'Horse' it was in fact Trojan (all brown label) TR77870. 1972 You're right about Jackie Edwards, that's the official 'A' side 'Sugarloaf Hill' but actually credited to Del Davis.

Oddities On Respected Soul Labels
Yeah, the 45 is a bag of shite...but check his album out, some great 'Northern' type dancers on it. 'Come To Baby Do' & 'Teach Your Baby How To Dance' are 2 which spring to mind!

John And The Weirdest On Ebay Is It Real ?
I have a brown vinyl (when held up to the light) one bought many years ago (£15) without that date stamp on the label. My mate Ian has one with the date stamp on the label bought more recently. Can anyone tell me which came first, the date stamped one or no stamp? The brown vinyl (when held up to the light) ones' which have sold for expensive amounts have NOT had the label stamp on them. Mine has superb sound tone and label is quality too. They must be tough to find?

Best Junk Shop Finds
Back in the early 80's during my Skinhead revival years, me and a mate was in the local army surplus store and the guy told us he had a room at the back with records for sale. Wow! Nearly everything on Trojan / Pama was there! Albums & 45s from 1968 - 1972....must have been an original Skinhead who donated them. 45's were 25p each and the albums were £3 each, we paid for what we could and put the rest aside for a later day when we had some more money. Suffice to say, all the (now) in-demand Skinhead Reggae was in there...'Skinhead Speaks His Mind - Hot Rod All Stars' , all the Torpedo releases too. Foolishly swapped the 'Skinhead Speaks His Mind' (£300+ recently on ebay) for O'Jays 'Lipstick Traces'. Doh! Did manage to get it back off the same guy, though I had to part with some good RnB. More recently (about 8 years ago!), found a huge box of USA 45's ready for the rubbish dump, the usual Tamla/Gordy/ etc but laying right at the bottom of the pile... Embers - Watch Out Girl MGM blue/gold Issue! Nice.
