Either way that opening brings back great memories.

I don't recall it from Wigan at all, first heard and purchased from 100's Club early/mid 80's.

Bugger me. I must pay more attention ;)

The rest of his sales are as equally optimistic as that

The Broadways' "Going, Going, Gone" on MGM Records, is an exquisite, lamenting ballad from the summer of 1966. It was their first MGM single, and a dandy it was, but the label didn't promote it much and it never became a hit. The lineup of the group was Ronnie Coleman, Leon Trent, Moe, and Billy Brown. A second single, "Sweet and Heavenly Melody," released later that year didn't register and MGM didn't renew the association. As the Uniques, they recorded for Selsom Records in 1960 but disbanded when Brown was drafted in 1963. He reunited with the Uniques upon discharge, who became the Broadways on MGM. After the Broadways, Brown worked for Ford Motors, and enjoyed his light assembly job, but that was before he was asked to join the Moments. Joe Robinson, the owner of All Platinum/Stang Records, fired Mark Green and another Moment as "Not on the Outside" climbed the charts, and needed replacements; the original Moments only played one gig. With Brown, Al Goodman, and John Morgan, later replaced by Johnny Moore then Harry Ray, the Moments enjoyed a string of R&B hits topped by "Love on a Two Way Street." They left All Platinum for Polydor Records and as Ray, Goodman, & Brown scored with "Special Lady." RG&B were urban radio and concerts staples well into the '90s, and continued to tour into the next millennium. ~ Andrew Hamilton, Rovi

I picked a Jo Ann Garrett up last week, description: 'slight storage warp NAP' ...received it and the ssw was a stepped heat warp, almost like a shelf in the vinyl - it played through but had that slight 'thud' for the first few spins and I've used this seller for a while now. So I agree of late I've had a few with description errors from usually hawk-eyed dealers.

Hilarious!!

Aye mate. No context for the quote, just info I thought was of interest.

Just picked this up elsewhere...

I used to have non soul related friends test me on the Top 500 book - generally by label, difficult on some majors, so I then went by number and sometimes by colour of label/design alone...which looks very clever to non soul folk but is fairly rudimentary to most of us

Done via Paypal...well done SS.

I thought my world had ended when Wigan closed....it had only just begun Rotherham, Maximes, Morecambe, Stafford, 100's Club, Leicester, Buzzard, Hinckley, Parr Hall etc etc and the onset of the early/mid 80's Jazz Funk Soul/two step/indie scene. What a time!!

Part of the furniture. Boba you will be sorely missed mate RIP
