But I guess if they don't have the middlemen to sell them for them there would be no point manufacturing them - wishful thinking I suppose

I asked Ebay to close his account on the basis that most of the stuff he is selling are illegal copies - if lots of others do the same there's a remote chance they might do something Time these people were weeded out and their operations closed down

You've got it wrong again Frankie There might have been competition between Wigan and Blackpool but Cleethorpes wasn't trying to aspire to either - they were setting their own standards Mary & Colin Chapman were more than happy with what they had - a top list of DJ's playing a healthy mixture of old and new Lots of new discoveries coming through from John Anderson, Dave Raistrick etc and they continued to keep coming into the 80's when DJ's like Arthur Fenn came on board If you think they were trying to aspire to Wigan why did the Wigan promoters put on an all-nighter in Cleethorpes - would have been the other way round, wouldn't it I'm not knocking Wigan - it played an important part in Northern Soul history but not as important as you maintain - there were lots of successful venues at the time - Notts Palais, St Ives, Coalville, Samanthas etc - not just Wigan and Blackpool

Rick told me that he heard it in a New York record shop, took about 10 copies of the LP and dished them out to some of the other Cleethorpes DJ's and Ian Levine etc

Sorry, but I don't agree with that. Cleethorpes was regarded by many as being on equal footing with Wigan and Blackpool - look at the DJ roster - Soul Sam, Ginger, John Manship, Ian Dewhirst, Poke etc Plus they didn't just break a few new sounds - they were in abundance. Poke was pulling in new stuff all the time via John Anderson. Even one of the lesser know residents, Rick Todd, was credited with discovering Bobby Hutton - Lend A Hand, which went massive nationwide almost immediately.

I'm sure I remember this right - my memories not as good as it was. Wigan were so concerned at the success and popularity of Cleethorpes they put on an all-nighter at the Winter Gardens the same night the Pier was on - it totally bombed

I thought it was 1966

I think it will be a bit of both - hopefully it will entice some younger people into the scene who genuinely appreciate the music but it will also attract some of the undesirables

Enjoy the programme and the forthcoming film for what they are but bear in mind it won't be safe to go to a soul night for a while once Joe Public decide 'I'll have some of that' It'll be drinks and barging on the dancefloor with a few fights thrown in at the end of the night Dedicated soul fans will have to return to the all-nighters for a good six months until the novelty wears off

I don't understand people who ask for a record and then do nothing for a few days - it's like they're not sure if they want it or not but don't want someone else to jump in while they try and make up their mind Most people, if they want a record, they pay immediately because they want to get hold of the record as soon as they can

They charge VAT on the total - goods + shipping The only time they don't charge VAT on the shipping amount is if the goods are declared as a gift and sent standard airmail (not registered)

I think one person managed to get hold of the existing stock of both label runs When they're gone they're gone and the price will rise - same as what happened with Betty Lloyd and Frederick Hymes
