which is very desirable!

UK Parlophone issue just sold for £334. Discuss.

Clare's busy on HER allotment, Rod's retired to concentrate on his crosswords! Someone should start a petition to get him back here!

OK all you other dodgy dealers, now's our chance!

Better than the original. Never let it go. R.I.P. Steve

We now have the details of our Dodger's funeral. 'You are invited to a celebration of Roger Taylor's life. We will be holding a service at Bitchfield Church at 1.30pm on Friday 18th March. Weather permitting and as an optional choice for family and friends we will be meeting at The Crown Inn pub (postcode NG33 4DY) here we will be following Roger by walking behind him all the way to Bitchfield church (approx 10 mins walk downhill) meet at 1.00pm just to give enough time. Following the service we will be holding a party in memory of Roger at the Recruiting Sergeant at Gonerby, Grantham (10 High St, Great Gonerby, Grantham NG31 8JP) feel free to stay here as little or as long as you want, there will be a light buffet, a toast to Roger with a cup of tea! Photos, memorabilia and northern soul music all things that Roger would love. We are asking people to not bring flowers and in place of this give a donation, we will be collecting for Macmillan and also donations for a special headstone to be placed at Bitchfield Church. We also ask that if you have a photo of Roger please bring this along (or a copy) so that you can place it in a memory book alongside a special story/memory or kind words. And remember, come as you are comfortable and casual (don't feel you have drag that funeral suit out!) We hope we can hold a day that would make Roger proud, a lasting legacy that he was and will forever be. We hope to see you there. From Katie his daughter X

Matchy told me today about "Speedy's" passing. Told him I didn't know him but Matchbox assures me that I will have and that he was a great guy, been around a long, long time. Well, whether or not I did know him I am sad another soulboy is gone and wish his loved ones the best. On the basis of how few posts Dodger has received on here on his passing, one of the scene's greatest characters and headcases, I thought I should make this post. R.I.P with respect, Rich

We have been bracing ourselves and yesterday we received the news that we were dreading that our great friend, the best man at our wedding and one of the real characters and jokers from the northern scene has also lost his battle with his illness. Always happy with his lot in life right up to the end. Dodger (Roger Taylor) thank you for being a great friend. This comes so soon after Alf Hockaday and Stephen Cassiday, it seems that our generation is fading away. Our love goes out to his sister Trudy, his daughter Katie and Pauline his ex partner. R.I.P. from Gill and Richard xxxxxxxx

CHANGE OF VENUE NOTICE---The wake will now be held at Dukinfield Golf Club NOT The Masonic Hall due to a double booking

There will be a bit of a (soul) do after the funeral at Dukinfield Masonic, kindly organised by Brian

...or the two cheesiest oldies (lol)

For those who knew him and have not as yet heard, Alf sadly passed away a week and a half ago. Originally from Stalybridge, he latterly lived in Newquay. An old Wheel boy, Alf was a pioneer of the Northern scene. We had many great times, laughs, scary times and close shaves. R.I.P our old buddy. Details of funeral arrangements are awaited

PM me with details RICH

Both sides of Pete Terrace are dynamite, especially I'm gonna make it. So rare on US and pretty rare on Pye Int. Good value I'd say; certainly better value than last week's £452 for Nolan Porter!

His Lil Bob & the lollipops album has some great covers- Agent oo soul, Bobby Bland's These Hands and Billy Bland's My heart is on fire RIP

Amazing the talent that came out of one Chicago housing project. Sure Billy won't object to being hailed the second greatest songwriter from that complex. R.I.P. a soul legend and a NS pioneer.

Ha ! (with an 'h')

Don't believe it had a US release. Is it good? More to the point, is it soul?

That's a new one on me. Are they the US Dynamics?

Surprised "So Close", b side of Garnett Mimms never got a mention...

Will pay £30. Half now, half on collection. SORTED NOW. Thanks

So soon after Joe Evans. The backbone of one of soul's greatest labels is gone. But we will always have the tunes. R.I.P Sonny and Blue

Which is the "A" side ?

Will pay up to £65 dependent on condition

Hi Rod I'm seriously thinking about Sandy Wynns but just made a £55 purchase of another record (a great buy) and need to keep Gill happy! Rich ps please let me know if someone else shows interest
