They weren't at nights i was involved in however there are many that just don't care. Instant promoter/dj with a box of boots. Fortunately they don't seem to last long.

It was released in the UK for the Northern market, if you want to play ovo go & buy an Okeh copy or the thousands of other great original records that are out there, otherwise you may just as well play boots.

Again two good sides but is it that tough to find a copy ? Wouldn't have thought an auction item ................................. but what do I know ? I know I bought an issue about 10 years ago around 30 ish quid Which is rarer Demo or Issue ?

2 great sides, Lonely Boy a big play for Roger Banks wasn't it ? I did actually buy it for Lonely Boy having forgotten what an awesome tune Quicksand is

Surely it still is ??????

Posted this before but hey ho, not a car boot but found a copy of Herby Brown One more broken heart Blue Ash for 10/20p 1980/81 in a record shop in Chapel Street market London, looked interesting got it home played it & stuck it in a box for about 30 years. Saw it in a Manship price guide @ 2k played it out a couple of times & no one made one comment about it. Bet if I'd played it 10 years later once it was a "big" sound some of those same people would be flocking around by then it had gone for a nice little profit. Agreed price of £1600 (Someone abroad) & they cleaned their local bank of Sterling so took £1590

I remember a similar thread donkeys years ago & there was talk of a fake Nashville Matrix on the green boot

Thought I read Tobi L was played & dropped at Blackpool Mecca, even then I think it was only hearsay as in " I'm sure I heard at Mecca"

I go back to my post isn't this what we all do ? I've lost count of the amount of times I've been out & heard a great record & it's like what the fuck is this, you find out (hopefully) & first thing is ask any dealers if they have a copy, if not the next day the hunt is on. I think everyone I've ever known on the scene had that attitude. (Apart from Mikey Gibbs ) Its that excitement, that addiction, that fanaticism that helped develop our great scene into what it is...................... or at least what it used to be.

I just don't get this thread. Isn't it what we all do, we hear a record & decide I must have that & we go & buy it or at least begin the hunt

It's a yes from me, I do like to see playlists from around the country just to see what's being played but I think quite a few people "protect" their playlists from the cheque book DJs. This may seem selfish & maybe it is but I used to spend a lot time trying to find records that weren't generally known to a lot of people only to get some cheque book DJ come up & ask what something was & 2 weeks later would be playing it in his set & then reading comments on his set complimenting him on his good taste I guess all DJs have to put up with that & some will say we should all share the info but whats the point if we all end up playing the same records ? Just as an aside on similar line i used to attend a nite regularly & was asked by promoter/DJ if I fancied doing a spot, when I said yes they asked for a tape/cd of the sort of stuff I play (should of smelt a rat) next time I went to the club the same person played half a dozen tracks that I had put on a cd for them. of course it could have been coincidence.

Surely everyone knows that a demo sounds better than the issue otherwise why do so many people write demo beside the label when posting play lists ?

Thanks Steve hope you're well. haha you're probably right mate but doubt I'd be able to pick up the bar let alone the weights I do use it hand held though prefer to stick it on a tripod when able to, think it was the wind blowing as much as anything & being on uneven footing at the base of the cliffs ................ that's my excuse anyway.

Thanks Russell

This chap had just landed halfway up the cliff face in Dover Kent to enjoy the lunch that he had just caught. Not as sharp as I'd like but I was shooting hand held 70 - 200mm (fortunately f4 not the twice as heavy f2.8) looking upwards & being blown around by very strong winds ! I know nothing about birds so can anyone tell me what this is ? Thanks Dave

The Spontanes version is on the flip side of their northern play "Where did I go wrong"

Amazing Steve, I'm well impressed mate

Both pictures fantastic, just interested how you got the background effect ? I know about depth of field but to me it just looks more than just a wide aperture.

lol Sorry just my sense of humour considering the title & giving it to your wife

Heard a lot worse

"Potentially" ........ says it all. As somebody has already said It's just sales talk. Link a common record with a potential 100000 buyers & hope that there's two idiots to bid against each other.

Hi Nige, yes it is, I've PMd you Thanks dave
