too true bri, one mention & the price can double!! i've got quite a few but i don't think i'll mention them! just play them when i'm out & see what happens, bet that ian's got em stashed in the back of the garage!! it does make you think that people who started on the scene say at the end of wigan & into stafford era may never have heard some of these great oldies!! max..

hi gaz!! won the pools!! a few quids worth there mate!! max..

both are well dated tunes possibly wheel era!! definately two that i played at the "cats" i will spin them at "soulvation" re-union night in july!! & i dare say a few other old & more than likely forgotten gems! all floorfillers in there time!! max..

YEH BUT WHAT A TUNE!!! MEGA MEMORY FOR ME CAUSE IT WAS THE 1ST RECORD I PLAYED AT THE "CATS" BACK IN 1971 A COUPLE OF REAL OLD THINGS THAT I AM CURRENTLY SPINNING ARE BILLY YOUNG "THE SLOOPY" & JNR WELLS "GONNA CRAMP YOUR STYLE" BOTH PURE CLASS & IN NO WAY PLAYED OUT OLDIES!! UNLESS YOU KNOW BETTER!!! MAX..

HI CHRIS, MOST CERTAINLY WILL BE PLAYED! & YES THAT'S JUST THE SORT OF THING NICE GUY ALAN WOULD HAVE DONE!! MAX..

well if graham doesn't i will!! was a massive floor filler at the "cats" max..

NEIL RUSHTON'S GOT ONE!! ONLY ONE IV'E EVER SEEN IN 40 YRS!! MAX..

FOR A NICE CLEAN COPY SAY £400-£500 ASK IF THE LABELS ARE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF RECORD IF NOT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO GET THE PRICE DOWN! IF YOU DON'T ASK! YOU DON'T GET!! ALL THE BEST MAX..

anybody hazard a quick guess as to what that lot would be worth on today's market max..

sad news indeed! i had only met jimmy on a couple of occasions, was a real nice guy! please pass my condolences on to rhian & the family, RIP JIMMY MATE. MAX...

MET THE GUY I THINK ON 4 OCCASIONS!! ALWAYS FULL OF HIS OWN SELF IMPORTANCE! HARD TO GET TO REALLY KNOW! COULD HAVE MORE THAN LIKELY BECOME THE RICHEST SOUL PERSON IN THE WORLD!! BUT FOR NOT PLAYING FAIR WITH CUSTOMERS! I TRIED TO GET HIM TO HAVE A UK ADDRESS FOR ALL HIS RECORD SALES & I THINK IF HE HAD FOLLOWED THAT ROUTE HE WOULD HAVE MOST CERTAINLY MADE A FORTUNE!! I REMEMBER ONE DAY WHILE HE WAS AT MY SHOP "PEP" CAME IN! SOUSSAN SAID F--- OFF YOU MOROCCAN BAST---TO WHICH "PEP" POLITELY LEFT THE BUILDING!! THAT WAS FUNNY AT THE TIME!! MAX.. INCIDENTLY NOT ALL HIS RECORDS WERE BOOTS I HAD SOME CRACKERS OFF HIM!!

HI JAYNE, THAT'S THE BOOTED COPY, DONE TO SATISFY NEEDS MAX..

first met edwin back in 1973 yes a long time ago! i have seen him quite a few times over the years, as if he could have got any better!! well i think he did, he seemed to mature with age. always found him to be a perfect gentleman & so very humble!! we lost one of if not the best live soulman of all time!!! max..

well said sir!! i'm sure we'll have a great night saturday!! it's not often we get to see one of the hallowed 100 club dj's out & about,especially you're good self!! looking forward to seeing & hearing you sat nite!! max..

pm'd ya max

had an old one in a collection last week, played ok really considering it was 35 yrs old max..

A VERY SOUND POINT! MAX..

HERE'S A GREAT TRUE LITTLE STORY FOR YOU!! IT WOULD BE SUMMER OF 72' I THINK! I WAS GOING ON HOLIDAY FOR TWO WEEKS & GRAHAM SAID TO ME WHAT THE HELL ARE WE GONNA PLAY WHILE YOURE AWAY!! SO I LENT HIM 25 OF THE CURRENT FLOOR FILLERS TO HELP THEM OUT!! WHEN I GOT BACK SUITABLY TANNED & EAGER TO GET BACK TO DJ'ING GRAHAM COME UP & SAYS HERE YOU ARE MAX IVE SOLD ALL YOU'RE TUNES & GIVES ME A BAG OF MONEY!!!! I WAS MORTIFIED TO SAY THE LEAST!! MY BELOVED TUNES GONE!! I CAN LAUGH AT IT NOW!! BUT NOT AT ALL HAPPY WITH OUR GRAHAM THAT NIGHT!!!!!!!!!! MAX...

YEP! DO SEEM TO REMEMBER THAT EMI DISC! TALKIN OF PEOPLE BUYING SOUNDS TO GET PRESSED WAS JUST STARTING TO HAPPEN! SEEM TO THINK SOMEBODY WAS OUT BUYING FOR SELECTA DISC OR WAS IT ANOTHER COMPANY!

SOME NICE PRICES THERE PAL! BET YOU SELL QUITE A FEW SO DON'T WORRY BOUT THE LAMBRETTA!!!! MAX...

now that's what i call real dedication to the cause!! well done pete!! max..

never went to the states! so no stories there i'm afraid! but one day i bought from a uk warehouse 150 copies of your my mellow edwin starr for 12/6 pence each! yes old money so that dates that find! on another occasion i bought 98 copies of the vonettes touch my heart for 33p each! thats when vat was 10% did somebody mention telford!! or wellinton as we knew it!well they had a bucketfull of shrine records which i never got to see! but i did get 18 major lance you don't want me no more issues for 18/6pence each! another good buy at the time. i used to write to a shop called randys in gallatin tennessee back in the day, he got very angry with me cause i kept ordering the same records! he told me to stop ardering them as he couldn't get em! so i said but i want them! i don't care if they are radio station copys, demo's anything i just want them! well imagine my suprise when i open a small packet from him to find 6 white demos of the satisfactions take it or leave it! he had inked out the prom not for sale bit, spoilt the look of em! but at least i had got em! by the way pop singer stephen stills used to shop there!! max..

hi ian, a good guess! i was 65 last oct, and still so much into my SOUL MUSIC! i couldn't live without it after all these years! it's an addiction i refuse to give up!! max..

they might well do! but just think how many would sell at a weekender then some of the dealers would stock it! i remember the old smiths shop in w'ton! it wasn't bad! mind you that was for rock n roll when i used to shop there cica 1957 max..

now that would make a brilliant read !! max..
