Great to see you Ion and a great set Shame there weren't more in to hear it!

Chalky I was having a fag (downstairs and outside!!!) but am pretty sure I heard Andy K play it. I am very deaf and could also have dreamt it (although my ears wouldn't necesarily have pricked-up as much as usual because he's played major major records the last two times I've heard him and I'd stopped being surprised) Sure Joan can either confirm or expose me as a charlatan atb Phil

Just by way of a flavour and off the top of my head, my plays included: Little Curtis and the Blues - please keep me (Vanco) Oracles - ain't got time (Om) Soul Set - will you ever learn (Bi-Me) Kavetts - I've got a story to tell you (Lendre) Curtis & the Sonics - find myself another girl (Almon) Knights - I've got the feeling (USA) Patti Austin - too much a part of me (Brunswick) Unknown Artist - joy (Audiodisc acetate) Eric Mercury - lonely girl (Sac) Ducky & Glowlighters - over and over (Uptown) Majjestees - take back all those things (Mutt) Invaders - the best is yet to come (Brewtown) Cody Black - too many irons in the fire (D-Town) Universals - diamonds and pearls (Cooking) Lovers - without a doubt (Frantic) Thanks for having me! Phil ps. Hopefully other folk will post some of theirs too which, entirely from memory (which ain't great) included: Billy Floyd, Venturas, Kenny Gamble, Little John, Trent Sisters, Mello Souls, Little Stanley, Ghetto Boys etc etc

You diamond, many thanks Dave!

Dunno if mods can help? (Or am I just being feckless and idle and need to do a new post altogether?) Anyway, I've just revised and updated the sales post I did on 14th Sept but, being a complete IT idiot, can't move, cut or paste it. So, anyone whose interested and can be arsed scrolling back for it ... ... some prices reduced and there's the odd good thing on there at what I think are fair prices. Additions include: Luther Ingram - run for your life / I need you now (Hurdy-Gurdy) Howard Tate - you're looking good / half a man (Utopia) Dramatics - toy soldier (Crackerjack) Ray Scott & Scotsmen - right now / feeling no pain (Decca iss) Decent trades and sensible offers ok as per Cheers Phil

Five Stairsteps (I'd forgotten until she reminded me, the little luv )

How long did it take to sell that Soul Notes for silly money?

this ain't necessarily gonna help but then 'the law' rarely does in my experience, open as it is to intepretation and dependant as it is, in so many respects, on context. A child (insofar as 'child protection' is concerned) is U18. As I say, it isn't black and white by any means as you encounter different thresholds and benchmarks in caselaw (u13, u16) with regards the issue of 'competence'; again, depends on context more often than not. Ultimately, there are some things that the law says are never ok and infinitely more where folk have to exercise their judgement as adults and parents; these will be underpinned, inevitably, by knowledge and a weighing up of the individuals and any [potential] risks involved.You then make your choice and take your chance. Personally, I don't think it's that big an issue in terms of nighters being overrun with little uns. However, I wouldn't want to see kids at em myself, for many of the reasons already stated here. Soul nights / all-dayers? I think that depends who, when, where, why etc etc etc. At the risk of stating the bleeding obvious, if I was even considering taking one of mine to an event I'd want to be dead clear about the following: - I'm not gonna come unstuck legally or cause anyone else to am I? - is it safe for them and everyone else who is attending? How do I know / how can I ensure that it is? - Whose needs are being met by them attending? Cheers Phil
