Lee David - Temptation Is Calling My Name did this start out as a mecca spin? is it worth starting a thread in media source, so we can all share some of this quality music? i'll start one anyway, add the tunes if you want alan

Rosey Jones-Have love will travel oh yes, mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

javells - goodbye nothing to say still love this, (even though some people turn there nose up.) will always be in my top ten, proper feel good track 5 degrees farenheit - just let your heart be your guide excellent track , proper dance record and feel good track alan

answers on a postcard!!!!

yep, thats looks like the one , oh well back in the box where it came from but, i'll keep my eye out for a real 'un now for sure alan

my copy has ...... Bet you're surprised - G Davis on the flip JM has a re-issue for sale 102r, could be that one mine says 102, with 232-2081 on the run in, black and white label, not sure whether original or not, didn't even know i had it till this morning alan

Hold on, help is on the way - G Davis & R D Tyler - PARLO just sorting through some records, while i'm snowed in and came across this nice little stomper anyone know much about it, does it/ did it get plays alan

they wasn't on the original list, john sent it a day or so later on its own. i've deleted mine, but someone may still have it anybody had a Scandinavian one yet? alan

got it chris, and your best yet IMHO, but its cracked i can only hear up to to track 13/14, if you have a spare, put one to one side for the next swap for me, if you would alan

if you bid early, like six or seven days early............... and the record your after comes up for sale on soul source for instance at an affordable price........ what then?

i would think the internet (ebay, private auctions, record sites) and cheap air travel has alot to do with new stuff being found. it was always there, but in america where they probably didn't share our love of what we call ''northern soul''. as the purveys of our scene search for new stuff it is then brought to our attention but as collectors, finding records as become easier via the net, but harder at the same time, as it is accessible for any one to find hidden/lost gems if they put the work in at the computer. and of course fashions change, as said before, quality slower stuff is now getting a chance alan

as anybody had either of the foreign exports yet. with reference to reviews, for me, this has been my favorite swap yet. been a real pleasure, so many thanks to all who contributed, cheers alan

are new/newly discovered tracks still called northern soul, when soul is nationally spread now. if so, was there a time when it ceased to become northern, and just became old/rare soul. is it just a term that we tag on to any thing, we remember that sounds like ''northern'' soul mmmmmm

i don't think its a case of not agreeing, ''so don't post''. debate is good, and theres always two sides to a story, sometimes three, four or five somedays. but, when debates turn to threats and abuse, the line as well and truly been crossed, and should not have to be tolerated by anybody. nobody wants bullies in our society, and certainly not in our down time. sorry rant over alan

which version is on the stateside compilation album? is it the minit version?

for what its worth............................ ''Its a classic example of quality northern soul. '' for sure, certainly right for the time ''A timeless master piece.'' strong words, but, still getting plays, when debatably better have fallen by the wayside, and been forgotten ''Its all hype'' definitely ''& little substance. Wasn't very good in the first place, then it got overplayed.'' i've heard a lot worse alan

The Passions - High jacked Malcolm Dodds - come see the sun Bobby Hebb - Love me maybe doing the rounds already so forgive me if they are if not, play 'em alan

hopefully this is a link...... https://www.mojo4music.com/blog/2008/12/the..._albums_10.html alan

A happy new year to all the soul source team, and members, thanks for for the last year. and cheers to the next. alan

Heads up motown fans, just been out to do a spot of shopping and picked up the new edition of MOJO magazine. nearly half the magazine dedicated to motown. motown 100 greatest hits section on marvin gaye interveiw with berry gordy and, a free CD aswell, with some nice little gems on all the best for the new year alan

excellent track, i put this on my cd compilation for the last CD swap

i was hoping for a more personal point of veiw but, did it mention anything about soul source debates on there

with all these debates about what does, and dosen't constitute soul music eg, soulful house, nu soul/jazz, ect. Northern soul, at times being one of the biggest contradictions what is soul music? is it the vocal?, or the music?, or both? when is soul not soul? or is it just our own personal interpretation, when it suits the individuals taste? this should liven up a boxing day and no talk of being an ar-soul alan

Trust me, its excellent . if you can buy better (DJ honky's was free, donation to charity appreciated), i've yet to come across one . although, his future epic will give it a run for its money, i'm sure . all the best, and merry christmas alan

i know exactly what ya saying bearsy, i generally listen to older 60's stuff, with a mix of 70's tunes i like. i, unlike yourself, have very little ''soul'' style/type records after this time. the NU soul sound tag intrigued me so i investigated further, and these two tunes, as you say made me sit up and listen having never been a follower of new soul music, i'm sure theres loads of stuff i've never come across, but i'm prepared to have a listen i know i wont like all of it, may be most of it, but i know what i like, and they are the ones i buy the CD swaps have opened my eyes to a lot of things out there, and i dont want to write anything off just yet all the best and merry christmas alan
