You evil pigs ;0)

Handsome looking record.

I heard you smoke No.6 Kev!?

Exactly what did you mean by that Len???

Speak for yersen

One of the biggest song-writers in the US Pete, wrote for everybody and has about five US No 1 albums. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Thicke

Vocalist on loads of decent US Housey bits over the years too.

...and every fecker else too

I've played that length of time in bars/clubs in Warrington for twenty odd years - used to start @ two in the afternoon some days and finish at 1am. And why mention Butch - is he Super-DJ?

A bad year for the roses - RIP

If you want to be good at it Kev - you gotta works at it

I find that if you are going to find a bargain, it's in the 99pers - anything over that has had some research done on it or before-hand knowledge to price it - so I always start from the bottom up.

What a complete c*nt!

Hot-boxing is okay if you are playing an hour here and there up and down the country - you can't do it if you are playing six hours solid regularly at a local night (av 3 mins a track, 20 records an hour x 6 = 120 records a night) - you need a fairly wide and extensive collection to carry that kind of thing off or else you'd be stale in a few months. Add in the fact that you should be tailoring your selection on where you are playing, how you feel that week, what time of the year it is, whether you think it's gonna be a humdrum night attendance-wise and need working a bit or whether it's gonna be busy etc etc Yes, you always need new sounds to keep it fresh but there's that much good, playable stuff out there that won't break the bank it's do-able without moving stuff on (and yes, I understand that hot-boxers are generally scene-led and they are big ticket items but you get my drift I hope!)

Kath Holt things okay but the rest of em are a bit Vaudeville. Not in any way Soul to me. Merv Griffin sounds like The Monster Mash. Like the fact the lad is digging the sounds he is but I can see why this has caused some debate. Keep at it fella, it'll come.

Bobby Jones - I Am Somebody is on Myrrh

...under that Llama

One from L.J. - 'Say You Will'

Pedant Alert: Whatcha See Is Whatcha get

It's not often we are allowed to say this Byrney....we're just too young son

That kind of attitude'll get you nowhere Paul....just argue

I remember it popping it's head up mid 80's, never heard it prior.

...I wouldn't say 'overlooked' Elaine.

Well, you learn summat everyday.
