  3. maybe alongside a book...i get enuff earache already trough being on the pc to long looking at vinyl!!! dean
  4. thanx mike!....its just i read people saying do it! and i also see,working with martin at 'going to a happening' at the grand atlantic in weston how hard and stressfull it can be....if you are running a nite for 250 people plus, the venue,sound,flyers,big name djs all cost a lot of money...we got 106 in on our first nite in weston,the club was about half full and we got a great atmospherewith nige brown,sean chapman,pete french,trowbridge matt and myself... but martin still lost a lot of money and that was without paying me or trowbridge matt(which isnt a problem by the way!)....and thats with martin out EVERY weekend!... dean
  5. wasnt going to get involved with this one but....sorry to be a bit negative but are there REALLY enough soulies in the south west GOING OUT to warrent another night? as i understand it there are already a couple of good nights down there...let me explain....take the handbaggers out (no,not with a gun!)...oldies only crowd....and then those who already attend local nights and go up north regular because as hard as you try its almost immpossible not to clash with something...how many are left?...as dave said a lot smaller numbers than has been said previous... im living in bristol and came down to the first soul in the south alnighter and had a great nite...but...the drive was a nightmare,almost 2 hours and im only about 65 miles away!...i can get to bidds ,lifeline,wooten hall,riverside,soulfusion,bridgwater,torquay in that time and even nearly radcliffe etc....how many weekends left?.... ive been promoting in various genres of musicfor years and it can be a very hard job...great when it works but very depressing and expensive when it doesnt...and its not an easy time at the moment...go go children in bristol is lucky,we have about 50 regular soul fans and can make that upto 100 most months because of where we are....lots of students etc but no pissheads wanting to cause trouble,everyone gets off on the buzz whether they know the tunes etc or not...after 3 years we must be the only club in bristol where there are very rarely drinks on the dancefloor...a lot of soul nites ive been to where numbers have been down they've let locals in to pay the bills and its pissed soulies off and ruined both the night and reputation of the event for the future.... we also have quite low expenses so we will never be rich with only 3 adm but we never lose money....but even so...people still say they will be there and then somethings crops up and they dont make it sometimes...if you have a big bill to pay it only takes a few to drop out.... like i said at the beginning...sorry to be so negative but with nites already on and the scene today so spilt between oldies,handbaggers,rare etc....i wouldnt bother after all isnt it said on here time and time again how there are too many nights on? BUT GOOD LUCK IF YOU DO!!!!!!! dean
  6. mental!.....saw a frank wilson go for 30 odd...put mine on a couple months later and got £4....after relisting!!....my luck all over dean
  7. ive got one...got it maybe 12 months back from ebay...good tune...know nuffin about it though dean
  8. :D ..you two should be on stage...britains next comedy duo...with special guest johnny beggs! dean
  9. unbelievable!...but fair play mace...it give us all hope to one day getting that tune we think we will never afford... dean
  10. i agree..i believe evryone is always learning no one knows it all BUT i can remember when i first started collecting ORIGINALS it was a nightmare didnt have a clue but now i know certain things to look out for like the monarch pressing number for instance,even the best counterfeit wont have the right number...and once you know that hundreds of boots are instantly obvious...although there were a couple of mirwood with right number but wrong stamp i believe bobby garrett and jimmy thomas ...but even with these after years collecting the 'shine' on their labels just look wrong...or it could be the thickness of a run out groove or the record itself...or the bevelled edged which later pressings had...all these things come easy with experience for those who dont have manships guide ...a lot of the 70s look a like boots were pressed at the same plant as a lot of originals years ealier BUT along with the mr stamp there was a number scratched..and a rule of thumb is if it starts with a 5/6 its 60s eg 65407 by the time they'd got to the early seventies the numbers may be 9/10 5406 so if its a 60s tunes with that number it must be a boot or re issue at least!.....at work so numbers are just for example cant remember exactly what they were upto at the end of the 60s! talkin of boots (for a change!)...has anyone noticed how many 'new' boots are on ebay.com nowadays!...stopped going on .co.uk as i was fed up with trawling through shit loads of repros now the yankie site seems nearly as bad !! dean
  11. theres also the arguement about original uk as opposed to original fullstop!....let me explain..marvin gayes love starved heart was not released in the uk until chris kings legit release but WAS released in the us so although it may be original uk issue,when djing at least its not an original... it gets easier dean
  12. yes a great tune but was one that got moaned about on here for being overplayed at kings hall a few years back....but then thats was 3 times a night!!...but the floor was still full personally i love it and would like a proper one but not for 250..lots of better tunes for that out there...but thats only my opinion it will ofcourse sell for that dean
  13. i think maybe the fact that a lot of this music as with reggae were made by minor labels with producers only paying the artists pittance to sing a track is today in our favour by the sheer ammount of tunes recorded...perhaps? dean
  14. Spacehopper replied to a post in a topic in All About the SOUL
    my best advice would be to buy manships latest price guide...not because of the prices but for all the information on bootlegs!...especially when buying off ebay...can get a bargain but dont wanna pay over the top for bootlegs described as rare good luck and happy hunting! dean
  15. agree..as i said wailing souls and yellowman etc...all those greensleeves 12"s....and the reggae that influenced such as under mi sleng teng and ring the alarm is dancehall....i think toad probably meant ragga...sure he will be on later... dean
  16. i would say just what you did...commercial reggae...not quite hard enough for 'roots' or soft enough for 'lovers'..... as far as dancehall goes i think it does include some reggae...artists such as sanchez and frankie paul are dancehall...digital rhythms built for the danchall as opposed to full bands playing highly produced music but still musically reggae... before the roots and dancehall acts such as wailing souls and yellowman shared the same rhythms....unlike 'ragga' which is another sub genre of reggae with a different beat which takes over from the bassline as the most important bit...especially when dancing...this complete change in rhythm happened about '91 with tunes like 'bogle' by buju banton which was named after and about the new dance to this type of rhythm...named after a man who started the dance whos surname was bogle can remember working with a sound system in norwich at that time importing tunes straight from JA and people saying thats not reggae...how do you dance to that?!...now artists like sean paul and beenieman are household names to a generation of kids who have grown up with it...and can even be heard in the background on eastenders!! just like soul has....rnb,tamla,northern,crossover,mid-tempo,70s,modern etc...all very different but still connected and influenced by each over as time passed so has reggae....ska,rocksteady,boss 'skinhead'reggae,roots,lovers,uk steppers,dub,dancehall,ragga... IMO dean
  17. here we go again!! ;-)..no not boots and some would be 'original uk' as far as selling goes...i know this thread isnt about it but as far as ovo venues go then if there is a 60 us release,that is the one to be played....im not looking down my nose at these and just like those 70s look-a-like boots etc i know their important contribution to the uk soul scene but if its 60s music and theres a 60s release thats the one to play which is where i believe these differ from uk sue releases etc ...but hey thats just my opinion...which ive posted on a few threads now so must make mental note not to bother again!! ;-) dean
  18. dont forget to bring a box of sales to go go saturday if you can make it mate... dean
  19. sorry chalky i dont understand your reply?...i didnt mean hearing the reissue played out i meant people who have the original at the back of a box somewhere and have forgotten about it maybe giving it some more spins!! dean
  20. maybe we will hear it more after this thread!... hope you can make it saturday,should be a good one,a few more new spins ,dr pickles has been before so he knows what to play and i know is looking forward to it and said he was bringing a couple up...and its tracey and mels birthdays too!! dean
  21. would like to think the price would come down to a more affordable level but like some of you heard about this years ago so not too confident in getting one!... infact the first person to tell me about this was a reggae dealer who would travel to jamaica buy up sound system collections and sell to very wealthy japenese and that was back in about '93!! ...before recently hearing about it on here a couple of times i'd started to think it was one of those memories that im not sure happened at all!! dean
  22. yep that was the one...
  23. has to be ray charles....influenced soooo many who came after him...saw a tv programme where smokey said he had a book full of lyrics and in one afternoon ray completely arranged and re arranged them and ended up with about 20 great finished tunes...a musical genius dean
  24. the best thing for me is the ammount of tunes out there and the knowledge...always hearing or being told about 'new' tunes...will never know it all...and could be on you tube forever but would still miss tunes you here about either on the floor or via others collections second has to be the people...always meeting and chatting to new people who unlike some of the threads on the internet are always polite and welcoming no bad attitudes when out and about and ive done a few scenes...attending as a punter and djing at scootering, indie and reggae venues and going to techno and drum and bass venues for a few years....none can compere with the soul scene... third...ive always collected vinyl since i was getting them bought for me when i was about 5 to playing my dads before that!....so a scene which i believe will always play vinyl whether original or not is a big draw for me....went to a reggae do in bristol which i hadnt been to in a couple of years and found the dj to be playing via a laptop and cds...made a tongue in cheek remark about what no vinyl? and he went off on one...more attitude in a couple of minutes than ive ever witnessed at a soul night.... and going to different venues every week is also great rather than staying in the same city doing the same venues every week...or month!!!...maybe this also contributes to the less attitude we have with so many people driving a lot less drink and other stuff consumed...very rarly see drunks staggering about mouthing off so yes its a great scene...if youre a new or younger soul sourcer who scared to go out DONT BE!!! youre mising out on some brilliant nites ...long may it continue...i hope...'it will never be over for me' (sorry!)....or at least till i can only make a shuffle around my music room to some mid tempo stuff! dean
