  1. True, volume brings prices down, the thing is trying to second guess whether you'll ever sell the larger quantity. Great if all goes well and you've got the extra stock, but if not what do you do with them - people don't like buying at full price to then find you shift the remainder at a lot less!
  2. I was thinking this myself, but I do get that trepidation about pressing more than you can sell - my wife constantly juggles this with prints or cards featuring paintings she's done.
  3. I got the Juno alert too, sadly it got to my email at 4.07, but by the time I'd got home just now and checked email it was too late. I tried the link and phoned through - the guy told me they'd sold all 20 pretty much straight away. Would have been nice for the 'Feel Good Friday' feeling, but hopefully others of you were more lucky / quicker off the mark.
  4. Agreed Mark. I'm very attached to my 45s, so was hoping this would make it to vinyl. But as an original download I'd have no problem hearing this played out as a digital file. I presume the only reason it's made it to a single release is because of feedback from downloads and being included on the Expansion compilation.
  5. Sounds like you got in just in time - nice one!
  6. I only checked on their links given via EE&S Facebook posting. Rough Trade had nothing via a search, Northern Lights just had a phone number (website photos look good and I like the name!) which I haven't followed up, and A1 took me to Instagram and then an unavailable website.
  7. Hadn't meant for this to shift towards a debate around OVO. Really appreciate all the tips around trying to get hold of it. Like Scootboy, I prefer to get hold of 45s, and as this is a legitimate release direct from the band / label then I don't have a problem with that. The band and their distributors will get their take and not a bootlegger; that, to me, is the crucial difference we ought to be concerned with. I've tried the US links posted on Ernest Ernie & the Sincerities Facebook page but no joy at Rough Trade NYC, nor Northern Lights and A1 Records. Dusty Groove had just sold out, so I've contacted the band directly.
  8. Thanks Rob, sorry to hear it's confirmed, but good that he was aware of the interest in his work.
  9. Thanks all, guess I missed the boat.
  10. Having thought this was great when I saw it referenced on another thread here on Soul Source, I was hoping to hear of a 7" release. I'd commented on the official video thread on YouTube and having just looked in noticed I'd had a reply from David Pinches to say it had now come out a few days ago. Gutted to discover that I can't find it in stock anywhere - anyone got any knowledge of where I can try? Meanwhile, just because it's so good, here's the link again to the tune:
  11. Great news Rob - nice to think that these guys can finally get paid for their contribution to soul music. I'm puzzled about Fred Bridges though, having come across this a while ago suggesting he'd died in January 2018: https://www.soultracks.com/story-fred-bridges-dies
  12. Just spotted that Channel 4 have Elaine Constantine's film, Northern Soul, scheduled for 1.50am tonight / New Year's Day morning. I'm guessing everyone's seen it but it might help to welcome the New Year in!
  13. Harlem 69 is definitely up there, excellent book. And as Keamus notes, mention has to be made of Richard Searling's book. The earlier books by Stuart Cosgrove have been in Fopp and Head for about £3 or £5 this past year. Another find in Head was the James McBride book, 'Kill 'em and leave' - 'searching for the real James Brown' - a very good read that only cost £3. For 2019 I'm looking forward to reading 'Rodigan - my life in Reggae' and 'Long, slow train' the book about Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings - both Christmas presents.
  14. Tim - this guy's videos all seem to be Low Rider Soul / Chicano Soul. Stylishly edited though the visuals may be a bit of a marmite-type thing for some people. It was via his video to Darrow Fletcher's '(Love is my) Secret Weapon' that I first heard the track and am now the proud owner of the Kent 7" issue of the track. https://www.youtube.com/user/ianwhitt100?pbjreload=10 If that link doesn't work just search YouTube for Ian Whittington. I don't know anything about him, I've assumed he's a British Soulie who moved over to LA - anybody here know the story?
  15. What a brilliant compilation! Love catching these tunes via YouTube with some great videos that Ian Whittington puts up but access to this set on CD is fantastic. Nice cover too, and I'm sure the sleeve notes will be as comprehensive as always with Kent. I can imagine a 70s compilation might be a thought too but guess we'll have to wait.....
  16. Forgot to add this, despite liking it so much that I bought copies to say thanks to the guys who DJ'd for my 60th! Cheers, Eddie, Charlie & Tom:
  17. Loved the Darrow Fletcher and as it was possible to finally get it on 7" that worked for me. Ernest Ernie and the Sincerities 'Do something' is spot on too (very strong echo of Marvin Gaye's 'What's going on') - as with algsoul's query, is it out on vinyl? Worth mentioning the Masqueraders single that's just come out 'Prophet of Love' / 'You're the one' - anything new with Bobby Womack has got to get a rating. Also Sean Hampsey's issue on Diggin' Deep of Tony Borders 'Promise to myself / Bill Brandon 'Rainbow road.'
  18. Sad to hear of this, her Wigan monster made me aware of her, so when "I've never been to me" came out in 1977 I got hold of it - turned out that the flip side was the one: "Here it comes". Nice 70s dancer with a good break at about 2 minutes in then building back up for the ending.
  19. Post delivered mine today - nice Christmas Cracker! two great sides, arrived safely packaged and in a high quality picture sleeve along with the record in its own plain white paper sleeve that slips inside, topped off with a snug plastic outer sleeve. Many thanks Alex.
  20. Seano replied to a post in a topic in All About the SOUL
    Absolutely agree, good topic as well.
  21. Mine arrived in the week but I'd been away so picked it up from the sorting office today. Thanks Sean, excellent 45, both sides.
  22. Sounds brilliant, hard to go wrong with Mr Womack.
  23. Just read the article about Jamie - really good too. Apparently the UK release of the film is set for 1st February 2019.
  24. The trailer's great, looks like a film well worth seeing! Thanks for posting this.
  25. Ten shades of blue might have been nice! Sadly my blue card was stolen as I used to keep it in my wallet (just for the nostalgia!) at the time about 20 years back.
