Such sad news. RIP Sue. Heartfelt condolences to Jon. - Kev & Pam

Can't believe that I forgot to mention this one earlier..... Monique - If You Love Me (Show Me) / Never Let Me Go - Kev

Shirley Wahls - Why Am I Crying / That's How Long and Ascots - Anytime / Sometimes I Wonder are both contenders for me. - Kev

R.I.P. Fran. I didn't know you personally, but certainly have got to know of you. Another ambassador for the scene passes. - Kev

Bella Dalena - The Marketts - Kev

Well slap my wrist Robb and send me to the naughty step! I must have mis-read your lengthy post #61 As far as later re-issues is concerned, who cares what label they're on as long as they're legitimate. Neither should be played at a NS night in my opinion, though some would argue otherwise. - Kev

Nonsense...you're just confusung the issue by sticking the word "original" wherever you feel like it. What next - original bootlegs? The first pressing is the original, a later re-press may be legitimate but should never be referred to as original. But I suspect you knew that. - Kev

I doubt it. if you mean the one with Levanna dancing. That vid soundtrack is interspersed with the Spanish street band. More likely from Ace's own site. Is nothing sacred? - Kev

That's the one Haydn Sorry, didn't realise you'd already bought this to attention on here. - Kev.

I can. Some ebay sales prices defy all logic. - Kev

Ok, the long awaited 100 Club favourite , September Jones' "Voo doo Madamoiselle" gets it's vinyl release Monday 31st March. Thanks to Ady and the boys at Ace/Kent for making this available in the correct manner and ensuring that, as usual, royalties are paid to the artist. So why oh why does ebay seller soulwaxni deem it neccessary to already flog a boot on the soulwax label. I don't recognise the name but certainly the location - Bangor, county Down, which has been the location for the production or distribution of numerous boots in the past, many of which were reported by ss members. Can't anyone stop this thieving magpie cnut. Permanently. - Kev

Missed the beginning of the programme and turned it on to a bit about adopting an old guy and taking him out for a pint. I wondered where the music was. As it turned out that was the only bit worth watching unless you like elephants. - kev

Flipped over Trini lopez - Unchain My Heart, and jeez it was bad....If I had a hammer I'd have smashed it. - Kev

Sorry but got to go against the flow here - is this another case of the Emperors new clothes? A nice tune, a fine voice, but overall pretty mediocre IMO and instantly forgetable. - Kev

Same on Freesat, usually in 2 parts on consecutive nights. - Kev

They all bottled it (thankfully). It was cold, we'd both left home with nowhere to go, and I was dying for a hot coffee to warm up with. - Kev

Walked in to a packed Greasers late night cafe in '69, just me my girl a Crombie and a suitcase, and put Marvin Gaye on the jukebox. - Kev

Why not just trim the inner paper sleeves so that they fit? OK you'll only have 2 sealed sides but unless you want to remove the inner paper sleeve from the card sleeve before you get to your vinyl there's no problem. - Kev

Sorry Kevin, it's not you nor anyone that I know who is currently 'active' on the scene. When I say toured the southern counties I mean lived in various areas - until his dirty deeds caused him to move on. Nor is it anyone I would normally associate with my home county of Northants. According to Kimbo he's likely living in Skeggy now ( he's not the culprit in kimbo's case btw) Not gonna name him as I don't want to forewarn him of what's gonna happen once he's located. Anyone that wants to know can PM me or look at post #119 of the 2011 'Soul Scene Villains' thread. What price friendship eh? Kev

I know someone who's back in Northants having apparently toured the southern counties being light fingered and conning cash out of his mates (myself included) before moving on. PM'd ya mate. - Kev

Hello mate, I'd be very wary of poking another stick in the hornets nest whilst Keb is still in the firing line - unless he personally agrees to your actions. That mayor and his buddies could easily put 2 and 2 together - leaving Keb to suffer the consequences while you're safely esconced back in the UK. His time will come. We know Keb has already exposed this guy, but that was out of necessity in an effort to get immediate aid to those that needed it. Got to say too that why do "profiled money folk" and their entourage of security and media types need to be there? The cost would be better served IMO in getting relief workers out there. I was hoping to get there myself, as DVI (Disaster Victim Identification) is one of my capabilities, but companies I am associated with appear not to be involved. - Kev

I think that would have been Kelmarsh, which Ady is on record as stating as his introduction to the scene. There were a few others around that area and always tucked well away - the greyhound track at Earls Barton (near to the George at Wilby, already mentioned),the Red House (Halfway House?) between Northampton and Kettering,and Bletsoe at a pig farm over the border in bedfordshire. Happy days, err ..nights. - Kev

Cos it beat spending all night in the motorway services, slotting your vinyl into a portable player and talking bollox to your mates. Let's face it - sleep wasn't an option. - Kev

I agree with you Pete - far better than remixes that I've heard. I can live with it, mainly 'cos I won't be listening to it ! Nothing like as bad as the Jackie Lee fiasco IMO as that was messing about with a classic recording by a Soul legend and was unforgiveable. - Kev

Someone needs a slap. - Kev
