OOPS! Of course, I meant to put Dr Truelove - and Iv'e been looking in to it for a couple of hours now so should have got it right! Thanks for the info Matt.

Some assistance please from the more knowledgeable on here: What is the original label for Betty Lou & Bobby Adams - Dr Truelove. Also, where was this, or anything else by either of these artists, recorded? -Kev.

Legend indeed, and has some really good prices on his vinyl - just be prepared for a 2 hour phone "chat" "STOLEN HOURS" 1st Anniversary,***RAMSGATE*** 24th NOVEMBER. 2 Rooms + Accomodation + Free unissued Vinyl (first 100 tickets) *** Change of venue - see Events thread ***

Were they in the Red Arrows then?

Not half as bad as I was expecting. Just a poor alternative version. More like finding an abandoned house if you're a squatter - it will suffice for some. And yes, there is far worse out there IMO - I'll go for the Peanut Duck too.

Anyone going to Kev Such's "Christmas Cracker" at Rothwell nr Kettering on Dec 8th? Usually a few sappers on the dancefloor there.

AGREED! And fed up with shredding bank statements as soon as they arrive. But....... Love, Love, Love -Bobby Hebb ,15p Across The Street - Lenny O'Henry, £3.20 Baby I Know - Doc & the Interns, $5 Voltaire Pier - Chocolate Boys, 1 Euro ................................all originals.........make it all much more palatable, and FUN. I'd guess that 78's don't ever go for big bucks, but once again stand to be corrected.

Thanks guys. A nice bit of debate on the Nappy Brown. The reason for my search for a 78 copy? I heard it, liked it, but decided I wasn't prepared to pay £150 (or any 3 figure sum) for the 45. A Google search threw it up as a Savoy 78, can't remember the site, so I started looking for it casually without any further research. Nothing more than that really. But, I bow to the experience and knowledge expressed here. I'll stop looking. Too cold for boot fairs anyway!

Because I'm old and confused! I've looked through so many car boot 78's in the hope of picking this up for 10p that I think I'd forgotten it wasn't the only format. So thanks for putting me right

There's one I'd play - if I ever find it: I'M A COALMINER - Nappy Brown. Brilliant R'n'B !

Mr Bang Bang Man - Little Hank I Can Feel The Ice Melting - Parliaments (or anything else by them?) Too Hot - Prince Buster

Could someone please start a fight at Kent Soul Club. I've been speaking with the doormen and they say they are sooooo BORED on KSC nights.

And if you look at the "Keni Lewis - Not The Marrying Kind" thread I think you'll find this is on the flip of that white label boot.

Sometimes I realise that being away from the scene for so long has advantages. I reckon I can spot a good tune without paying regard to what decade it's from, and without being influenced by where it was played. This one - well I wouldn't give it house room. But if anyone wants it there's an original copy on ebay - under 2 days to go, 1 bid, ...........99p. About right IMO "STOLEN HOURS" 1st Anniversary, ***RAMSGATE*** 24th NOVEMBER. 2 Rooms + Accomodation + Free unissued Vinyl (first 100 tickets) *** Change of venue - see Events thread ***

Speedy Gonzales - Pat Boone

I didn't go for the torch issue and got a copy of the SS one as I thought that was the legit copy in the absence if a Goldwax release. Horrified when I started reading this thread 'cos this is a top tune and I was going to start off my next set at Ramsgate with it. So - thanks for all the knowledgeable postings on this thread . Decision made................ ....I'm playing it!

They would have made a fortune at this venue! "STOLEN HOURS" 1st Anniversary, ***RAMSGATE*** 24th NOVEMBER. 2 Rooms + Accomodation + Free unissued Vinyl (first 100 tickets) *** Change of venue - see Events thread ***

Yep, excellent venue and nice floor Still saw a couple of "beer sloppers" encroaching onto it at the last one though. I still sometimes use a bit of talc there. I'd love to see it tested by more "energetic" dancers.

Good shout. Try this one: John Parker - Just A Thing Called Love, on Brunswick "STOLEN HOURS" 1st Anniversary, ***RAMSGATE*** 24th NOVEMBER. 2 Rooms + Accomodation + Free unissued Vinyl (first 100 tickets) *** Change of venue - see Events thread ***

Al Williams -I am nothing. Definately my all time number one sound. Great atmospheric dancer, but I personally wouldn't class it as a "Pure Soul Ballad" Paris Blues is good enough for me on that count Other contenders though IMO are: Chuck Jackson - Look Over Your Shoulder Tony Michaels - I Love The Life I Live Loads of others I'm sure.

PM'd ya Reg. Hope you got it. Good Luck with the sales mate!

Am I psychic? Only last night I was thinking back to Reg reading some of his transcript at Chrissies prior to the Worthing bash in April. Today I've scoured Medway's bookshops for it , not knowing the title or even if it was out yet. Then I get home to to read this! Well done Reg. I'll be reading it soon.

All I can say Pete is that if it wasn't for the white label I might never have heard this. So a big THANKYOU! from me.

Yep, white label "Test Press" - only 20 done? Heard it played (not the acetate ) at a party on the south coast this year - awesome! Moldie was mean't to be there but he must have got advance warning.
