Hello mate, huge fluctuations by % , just had a look through popsike, several on there at £40-£50 but also a couple £100+!!

It's an odd equation isn't it, the size of the states, obscure ad-hoc distribution networks and discovering rare records that retain that "northern" appeal. Are the records hidden gradually deteriorating? I do think the early diggers discoveries would have been discovered. I also think it's a key part of the scene who champions the tune. Because of the vagaries of defining NS I think to some extent we have always looked to some DJs to tell us what it is at the moment.

label order as that's all I remember, I can picture labels when I cant remember artist or title. When I'm asked "Do you know what this is?" I quite often think I've bloody got one but still can't remember.

So sad news, enjoyed his words on here, his dancing, and passing words at venues. Seems so much worse as so unexpected?

One on JM now if we are talking about Shirley Johnson, which I presume. Sorry was posting on phone that hadn't displayed previous posts.

Cheap enough to get but harder with pic sleeve. Picked up an EP just the other week for £14.90 from ebay but without the sleeve. I thought for the saving I could just tuck it inside the album!

Don't think the music choice is hers as a stand in. Would be interested to know how much is policy reflecting media upsurge interest and how much is one random person putting tunes in playlists?

Wish it could be done, constantly surprised that some larger music players are not more aggressive with this, thinking of the legit Motown 7" box sets competing with boots? So tired of the number of boots, but not as tired as seeing them played out.

Intend to be helpful regarding price. About a year ago, perhaps longer got a Blue Rock for £300 which I thought was fair and remain happy with. Couple of months later JM auctioned one for about £360 (from memory) which I thought would've been more given the premium JM value. Not sure regarding comparable Phillips / Blue Rock prices?

Just realised I was close at £320, have I won it?

? Ray Pollard £680. Is this a new twist, watching a "near mint" on eBay finished a couple of week ago, for just about double £1232.12?

I would love , love for ever, a Legit Brenda Holloway Lonely Boy 7" vinyl. Have I missed a re-issue, didn't see it listed in previous box sets.

£60 inclusive of postage to pay for an Ex Holding On / On and On , by Eugene Gaspard on Rosemont Records.

Video won't upload from my phone, presume file too big, will have a look when back at PC but I presume it will be on YouTube by now?

I wouldn't say note perfect but great effort and nice to pay respect. Got a video on my phone of You Get Your Kicks from last night but not sure of protocol regarding posting on here from a live event?

Love it and not just fond memories, think it stands up now. However playing along I'll guess £320, thinking it will stall, guessing rest of world value at £200 . Was it booted on Down to Earth?

Any tips on availability, this link says out of stock and Amazon availability 31 march? Sorry if I'm impatient, looks so good.

Sure I've spun that out at some time, the other side No Matter What You Do is also a great Mod dancer. Is her version of Just Can't Get Enough Of You an album only track, got an emidisc boot from very early 70s of that, it was an oldie when I wasn't!

Winning Jerry's friendship, he asks to go to Wigan Casino, voted the best club in the world - but Jerry questions Mark's authenticity and is undecided whether to take him. Brings it all back to me, the authenticity test before you got on the bus. Has anyone ever fallen out over northern soul?

Hi Steve, some time ago but think I remember Rob Smith having an issue in his sales box , can't recall price. Dean

Got an issue and demo and don't need both if you're not fixed up yet.

The one I put a pic of above has a '66 delta, print is much sharper than the look a like boot I have . Dean

That holds up, first pic of look a like boot has D203-B. Second pic D 203B. Thought there was a circle stamp but looking close (close as these eyes can), don't think it is stamped but a further etched mark.
