I like it.

I thought mine was a definite boot - might dig it out and check tonight. A great oldie this. Peter

Yep have to agree. Sam Williams is the version. Stunning record of the highest order.

We were all very thin in those days.

Morning Smiffy!

And so? I thought you had gone to bed Mr Grumpy.

Blimey - you type fast Gareth! On a personal note I agree with your latest post - or rather that's very much how I see things. I do get irritated when "modern" - however we want to define that style of music is seen as the black death - it simply isn't true. A good post mate - I wanted to disagree earlier!

A lot of people left because the scene had become stale and fookin shite in parts - it had run it's course in many peoples lives. Modern was not the anti christ of the scene for the majority - it's very easy to have a scapegoat.

I'm really sorry you've let your reggie stuff go and begged and borrowed to do the deal Pete. I know from on here that you work hard to make a go of things. I hope things pick up a bit for you mate. Peter

Why is is that even when you know what you're likely to say - I still can't help laughing.

Yep - it could run for months this one! A very thoughtful answer.

Where you off to Rachel? Anywhere nice?

There's five knuckle shuffling Pete - would that count?

Mr Reliable as ever.

Just making the point that you may think it's shite - but loads of others disagree. I can see a Smithy Record Smash up coming on!

OOps - didn't see the bit at the bottom!

Didn't quite get that Dawn. Peter x

There's a fair few who like "plodding, shuffling shit like Larry Houston Pete - myself included. A decent record is a decent record - no matter when it was released. As I know you agree - there was loads of hundred mile an hour sixties fookin shite, pop shite, and of course the overplayed shite. Modern may have ruined it for you personally Pete - I accept that. But it didn't ruin the scene for good per se.

People were already scurrying away Pete - the scene was tired. Modern stuff kept me - and lots of mates interested and motivated.

Not read all the thread cos I'm a lazy so and so! I'm not going to get into a heated poncy debate on this but..................... Northern without "modern" - no way hosay! Modern revitalised this beloved scene of ours from circa 1979 onwards. I like all soul music - 60's, 70's, 80's etc to now. Diversity is good. Tra la la la la. Ironside

There's an Eddie Billups on here today. Think it was KWJ - it'll be in sales posts.

Last time I saw one I think it was a ton. Mm - having said that it might have been two! Can't remember.

I've just seen this! Pi**ing meself!

What happened Reg?
