Enjoyed that Uptights, Superlatives ... quality stuff!

Feeds and maybe fed, at least in part, by thirty five year old stereotypes i guess Mike. If they searched nights regularly there'd be some serious Sanatogen questions to answer. The media does like a "reveller" doesn't it. Can't remember the last time I revelled; feel like I'm missing out.

Bull & Matadors fantastic Sid. Hope you're well mate

I would like the MG from a collectors perspective, naturally enough, and doubtless it has some 'historical' significance or whatever you wanna call it. Nonetheless, as LSH was issued - assuming its not a different cut - I'm not sure I'd want to pay a great deal for it. (Originals etc... now that would be a whole different ball game). Great find though Thomas and just my humble opinion obviously. I now have that Carolyn Crawford Pete, plus a couple of unissued Velvelettes, Marvin's lonely lover and a couple of Temps too. Love em!

Great to see Willie West and Edwin in there alongside some big tackle. Quality!

Yep. People invariably create schisms, not music itself. The things supposed to be about the latter isn't it? Bit of inclusivity, open mindedness, tolerance and, most of all, passion and we'll be right lol. Personally, I really loathe the 'labelling' thing: rare and underplayed, oldies etc; wtf? Often misleading and disappointing, invariably divisive at a time when there's more dos than punters as it is and no atmosphere = p*ssing in the wind I reckon. For the life of me I can't see why it has to be an either / or musically; I also don't think anyone has to or should resort to 'lowest common denominator'. While you might reasonably argue that it's really tough to find swathes of new 60s that stand-up these days, we do have a nigh-on fifty year back catalogue of incredible stuff to go at. Surely it's possible to mix n match and make a decent fist [not necessarily on a badge] outta that little lot?

Hardly the wilderness years eh Chalks. Great stuff, really enjoyed em all

Turbines - 'start over' on Cenco mate

I disagree wholeheartedly, July was splendid

Phil, I've rung em for you. They said there's nothing they can do mate, its just cluelessness lol (I'll try not to push you further into the abyss though by posting anything else)

One of my all-time faves: Bootleggers ftn Cathy Carlson https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=ECXngXL8G8c Tal Armstrong & the Escorts - give it up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uU9lTHEp6nI&feature=player_detailpage

Still play Doni B and Metros out whenever I get chance, love em both

They can't all be stompers all the time. Even the very best need a bit o down time occasionally https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=3RD3J_yUUek

Lonette - blue jeans https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1jtQTzlk0Q&feature=player_detailpage Stunners - nobody https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=131_UU2EeCU&feature=player_detailpage The defence rests

Hopefully, it's a soul thing Servicemen - I'll stop loving you https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=wPa5Et05-g4

Same here. I change stylus every 3 sessions (only once a year in our case) and have just bought a spare Shure cart as back-up; got several others but no comparison. Never had anything but quality from them thus far and would recommend them without hesitation.

Thanks Richard. Absolutely unwittingly it tends to be the 'bigger' bits that get listed because theyre easiest to remember but that's not an accurate reflection of the night as a whole by any means. If it'll fit, is quality and danceable it'll get played at some stage by someone, regardless of rarity, value etc. It ain't quantum physics is it, just good soul records you don't hear everywhere and certainly not all together. I think you'd like it

2nd Nov Steve, book early mate lol Atb Phil
