Identifying Records
Smartwater contains a chemical code which is unique to you as a purchaser. It's reckoned to be "virtually invisible" to the naked eye - if that's vitually invisibe as in the VERY visible marker pens that the police tried to get us to use - then I wouldn't want it anywhere near my vinyl. Cross-contamination would be an issue too, especially if you dj. There's a possibility that the chemical marker would be tranferred to the decks and anyone else handling your vinyl, to anyone using those "contaminated" decks and to any other vinyl played on them, etc, etc, etc. I reckon your answer lies in good security rather than a marking system. Good luck, - Kev

What Was The First Tune To Be Pressed?
Deffo picked up my copy late '69 or early '70 when it was one of my favourites played at Wilby. Same time as Poets was being spun there and at the Earls Barton niters.. By December '70 I'd joined up and moved away so can't have been later. - Kev.

Ebay Buyer Beware
Nah,.........he's implying that it's unknown, and not just to him, knowing that a fool and his money are easily parted IMO. And if the artist is made known to him then he should alter his description and be honest about it. What am i saying!.....we're talking ebay and Northern soul - Kev

Ebay Buyer Beware
But if he's still listing it as "unknown artist" having been informed who the artist is? That's not right. - Kev.

Is There A Better £5 Original
Good to hear that my collection is rocketing in value Pete. - Kev

Is There A Better £5 Original
Lonely Girl - Miss Madeline - Mar-v-lus, gets my recommendation as a quality cheapie. Or by Young Folk on the same label - the exact same version with Madeline Strickland lead vocal. - Kev

This Northern Soul Inspired Lad
Cheers Pete. (and Dave) In that case i was viewing some of their stuff yesterday. Some tenuous family/freinship link to Ady Croasdell I believe which explains their "tribute" to the 100 Club in their number "The Big AC" (AC being a reference to Ady. lol.). - Kev.

This Northern Soul Inspired Lad
So will I - once someone tells me who it is.

This Northern Soul Inspired Lad
For some reason I can't view the clip - just got a blank black screen. I'll have a peek on youtube. Who are they? - Kev

Singers Who Mention There Own Name In Their Song
Yep, but only by 2 years Garry. Agree, a suberb song. Played it out once and the promoter came rushing to the decks with "Is that Sam Hawkins?". I thought he was taking the p!ss - due to the name check just having been sung. - Kev

Fantastic Detroit Tv Show 1966
Nice shout Pete, I really enjoyed that. Am I the only one that thought the Magnificent Men were black? - Kev.

Have You Ever Worn A Record Out?
Yeah Right! Is that what they told ya? On the other hand I can think of some dj's that must be close to wearing out some of their tunes, and I wish they'd hurry up. - Kev

Help ! Partial Refund
To be honest mate, if you were more interested in the cover then you should have enquired about the condition of that rather than rely on the picture. - Kev

Soul Time Radio Show
Still no good for me Rod - shuts down my whole Internet Explorer then re-opens it automatically. Does it 3 times before giving up. Oh well. Who are the Gills? Not like Bearsy to get excited about football - Kev

Soul Time Radio Show
Thanks Rod, good to hear that the show is getting a great response. Just tried the link in your last post and still have the same problem unfortunately. At least you've assured me that it's not a problem my end ( it usually is). - Kev

Soul Time Radio Show
Anyone else having trouble getting into this website? First attempts with the link took me to Facebook (which I don't do). Entering the address to my browser gets me there but it instantly and repeatedly closes down. Says due to a problem with the website (or is it just me?) - Kev

Lockettes On Abc
Thanks Kev. Oh that's all right mate, don't mention it.

Lockettes On Abc
Hi mate, You've posted this in the wrong place - this is for general non-soul wants/sales and lots of people don't even look here. Perhaps you could ask the mods to move it. It needs to be in WANTS (Rare and Northern Soul record wants) . You're also better off giving it a title such as "Lockettes wanted", rather than just "Want" - so that people can see what it is without opening your post. - Kev.

Richie Havens...yowsah
Nah. Nice version for playing at home. This was at £44 when I last looked so I decided not to bid. - Kev

E Bay Buyer Not Coughed Up
Given the circumstances, the guys finances and earning ability have probably taken a knock. I'd now be tempted to say enjoy the record, forget the payment, and get well soon. - Kev
