Never really a record that I've been fond of. Scotty from Donny always begged to differ if I recall. Peter

Blimey. I'm sure I've got a blue one somewhere - might have a look in a bit. Always thought it was dodgy.

Brilliant Barry. Peter

Bless you Brummy Mick. That made me smile though. When I lived in Lincolnshire I used to organise summer beach parties - not huge afffairs they were just a few lads and lasses, maybe's about twenty or thirty of us. Big fire on the beach, loads of booze and some soul music from a ghetto blaster - thinking back now they were well fecking cool. Anyway, one of the girls - either Anna or Hayley from memory, span round with a bottle of wine in her hand and smacked me right in the mouth! Didn't knock my two front teeth out but chippped em both! I felt like I'd been disfigured for life - I was such a vain bastrard back then. They're not huge chips and I've grown to accept them over the years. Hope yer bridge looks good matey! Peter

Yep, that's very nice Dave. We've all been short changed at 2.07! Peter

Another one from me today. Keeping with Prince Philip Mitchell theme - Something for the Head. Now not much matches the superb Bobby Womack but I do prefer PPMs version of this one. Both great records - what do you think? It is PPM's song. Peter

Hi Swifty. Keep on Striving is the side for me. Great soul music. Peter

Love the intro Paul - new to my ears. Which is why when she said "Who is it" and he said "It's me" I didn't know who it was! Nice one. Peter

I know you can Mr Pickles - I've been with you when you've experienced the same shit too. I have memories of you, Shippo, Cleethorpes Winter Gardens ............. and a small white van. I hope you're well buddy.

Nice Mal - new to me I think. It ain't bad - it good. The man can sing - and he got soul.

I'm still none the Still don't get it Andy - sorry. The link I posted up has backing vocals and is smoother - that is the record I have. The other version - on Mr Fish's podcast and also on tinternet is very different but also has backing vocals. So - which one have I got and is there another version without any backing vocals?

Why is it that I've always had a drink when things like this come up? So, are there two versions - the one Mr Fish has in his podcast and the link I posted up - or are there more? And which is which then - I'll never find mine out to check. Thanks Peter

Good Evening Jason Hope yer ok Buddy. Good shout this one - fecking awesome piece of soul music. There are a couple of mixes to this which are quite different and not sure which one Mr Fish has used - not checked out his podcast yet but will do. Here's a link to my favourite cut - I don't know the story about the different takes. I found this at my mums house - haven't a clue where it came from! Peter

Got an old cd on the deck and Prince Phillip Mitchell I'm so Happy came on. Used to like this early 80's - still do! Quite a few people spinning it - Mr Hampsey included.

Nice record mate. Good price too.

Is this similar Dave? Vocal wise I think so. I can be tone deaf at times! richard "dimples" fields i like your loving Peter

Nice one Dave Never knew this was the Major. Did Dimples Fields do this as well - it sounds a bit like him anyway. Gonna google it. Peter

Post them up mate - we can then work through em and uncover em. Fro memmory there would probably be - Top Cat - Larry Houston Tyrone Davis (I Think) Daybreak Phantom Janitor - Deadbeats Just to kick off with a few - hope I haven't gone too much off topic

Will also single out Mr Barnyfather too - liked his taste in music for years and love his enthusiasm behind the decks. And he's a nice bloke too. Let's be aving yer!

I'll third that. Sir Dickie's set around the 1980 time were - are, untouchable. Fantastic modern stuff alongside some of the best 60's new discoveries. Brilliant stuff. Set the bar and never been outdone in my book.

What was said elusive record Russ - or is it a secret? Peter

NOT FORGETTING THE AWESOME FLIP ..... BLUES TIME IN BIRMINGHAM ONE OF MY FAVE ALL TIME REAL SOUL RECORDS Yes, beautiful record Flanny, beautiful. Peter
