Personally I don't give a toss what people's supposed 'motives' may or may not be or what they do or don't write on them, just grateful that some take the time and make the effort to give folk a flavour of what's being played round and about, chance to maybe check something new out etc etc. No one forces anyone to do anything of course but I always think there's far more preciousness and / or insecurity involved in actively refusing to do one.

Obviously, they'll all only do what someone is prepared to give for em in the end, not really down to John in that respect. He does erm 'wax lyrical' though and some of his write-ups are genius. Tragically, I still enjoy and sometimes chuckle at the descriptions you see on lists and websites. Barry Wad remains the master IMHO and his list is always the most descriptive: dreamy, pounding, floaty, mid-uptempo, floor-packing, girlie, upbeat etc ... ... brilliant!

I think it is generally, the mega rare things and 'big oldies' notwithstanding maybe. That said, Freddie Williams ... ... wtf

PM me with price and condition Cheers Phil

No bids mate far as I know. It's my mate's record actually. Do you know what Don and Ron did? cheers Phil

Fantastic black music and eminently danceable; not averse to it at all and good stuff in its own right IMHO If I heard em all night at a soul all-nighter though: a. I'd be bored sh*tless b. I'd have a migraine by midnight; and c. I'd know for sure that I was on the wrong bus. Good records IMO as I say and I'm certainly not knocking them per se. Come on though Tez, either or both of em Vs Johnny Rodgers? That's putting an also-ran and a selling-plater up against a thoroughbred The main problem I have with lots of these sounds - just the same as I do with RnB and crossover when I think about it - the majority of em are just stocking fillers IMHO and even an hour of em might as well be an LP to my ears. For sure, the odd thing 'crosses-over' and is sufficiently soulful and good enough to warrant it's place in the pecking order. However, the majority are neither knew or exciting to my ears, they're just not good enough when sat alongside the other things that are already out there, many of which still haven't had their time and are, in my opinion, infinitely better, more 'soulful' [in the scene sense] records. While I'm ranting, same deal with not rare and/or inexpensive records; if they're good enough and slot in play em , however rare, expensive or not they are, doesn't matter a sh*te. All I ask as a punter is that folk don't expect me to pay a tenner to eat spam disguised as steak or, worse still, insult my intelligence by assuming that I can't taste the difference. If we're not careful it'll end up like that re-formed chicken roll stuff you get from the supermarket, all beaks n feet. Once a breast man ... ...

Just a handful of decent tunes, mostly spares and a number re-listed and reduced (sorry if you've seen em all before). If there's anything you fancy PM me. Not really interested in offers or trades on these as they're already pretty competetively priced and I need cash to be honest. Paypal (gift), cash, cq all ok. All graded conservatively, money back if you're unhappy. P&p standard rates. (Overseas we'll sort it and over £100 it'll need signing for). Anyway, have a butchers: Two Plus Two - love will conquer all (Ditto) Ex £100 Butch's old 'Servicemen' c/u. Bargain! Buddy Lamp - save your love (Wheelsville) vg++ £175 v. light marks dnap and 'good' on both sides in biro. Proper Detroit dancer and floorpacker. Tony Matthews - my wish (Convoy) ex £350 Bargain! Slight ring on one side of label but vinyl is Ex maybe better. Top record IMHO Hal Miller and Rays - love another girl (Amy demo) vg++ £120 Bargain! Great group sound

Anyone who has ever heard me DJ will know that accusations of any planning or thought having gone into it at all are obviously wide of the mark

Some top tackle there Steve Enjoyed flitting in and out and many thanks to you two for the cards and to Bob of course for the, erm, memorable prezzie I'll never eat another mushroom long as I live!!!!!! If you wanna part with that cracked, worthless thing PM me :no:
