  1. Don't you start! Serves me right for spending the 80's in clubs and brothels I guess......... Ian D
  2. Yeah right. With a large hook............ Mmm. Probably L.A. I think. Still some scope there I reckon in lock-ups in Compton and Watts. And rumour has it that S.S. has renounced his former life and found religion and is a practising orthodox Jew these days......... Ian D
  3. Cheers mate. Soon as I see exactly how many there are I'll PM ya but that sounds perfect. This came about completely out of the blue when I bumped into one of the producers t'other day and he said he had a bunch of copies at home....... Ian D
  4. I thought as much Sutty. However during that particular period I was going through my 'lost weekend' in New York and immersed in other stuff. So much to learn still...................has that Carstairs track gone big yet..........? Ian D
  5. Well you and I have totally different taste then Rob. To me it's a brilliant uplifting anthem that would rock 'em anywhere. To each their own I guess. Plus your valuation would appear to be way off the mark as I've just sold 3 copies @ £50 each....... Ian D
  6. All of which makes this a kind of interesting record. I mean, quite apart from any U.S. basketball connections, this is just a great, great record and surely a future monster at some point. So I reckon £50 a pop is fair enough innit? I haven't got 'em in my hand yet, so I'll hold fire on offering 'em out until that happy event happens, so anyone who wants a copy at that price should feel free to PM me with their details and I'll reserve 'em as I get 'em OK? Touch wood it'll work out OK......... Ian D
  7. Now there is a realist. Well done Theresa. I'm a 'lil bit more random then the norm. Too many friggin' catergories for a start...... A major part of the pleasure of maintaining a huge collection is not necessarily knowing what you have and then subsequently discovering stuff that you already own but haven't necessarily even listened to just lately. Hence the beers make perfect sense. Well done! Ian D
  8. And for anyone who's interested I'll be having a LIVE natter with Craig Charles on the Craig Charles Soul & Funk Show, BBC 6, this Saturday 23rd October from 8.00pm about the trails and tribulations of running a Soul/Dance/Black Music label in 2010! My link Ian D
  9. I just bumped into a few copies of this gem. Does anyone have a current value please? Cheers all! Ian D
  10. Maybe not surprising as she does background vocals on Aretha's "Integrity". https://www.discogs.c...ist/Sandra+Feva Savoir Faire's been reissued on CD as well..... https://www.cherryred.../sandrafeva.php Ian D
  11. But that's the nature of the collecting beast innit Pete? Most collectors are slightly nuts anyway aren't they? Ian D
  12. Mmmm. Child of the 60's perchance are we Theresa? Ian D
  13. Deffo a freebie for you Theresa if you drop me a PM with your address my dear. (Note: this is only open to Surrey housewives who've spent the child benefit this month OK?). Good thinking on adding details to the You Tube clips - I'll add it the never ending list! Got any more jobs for me whilst you're at it Ian D
  14. Out on Monday and now available @ Amazon for £6.99 inc postage! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Jumpin-Anni...87483076&sr=1-3 Ian D
  15. I've heard 3 unreleased Charles Drain's including the nifty version of "Lifetime Guarantee On Love" but I think you may have heard the other ones which I'm told are exceptional. I'd better get on the case! It makes you wonder where the rest of the pressing runs went on Otis Williams and the Hypnotics doesn't it? Probably in landfill somewhere near St Louis by the sound of it............ Ian D
  16. Ian Dewhirst replied to a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    Yep. We did a special one-off 500 press 7" of "Can't Take It With You"/"Gamble On Love" in 2005 which long since sold out. Ian D
  17. OK, anyone who would like to hear both sides of the incredible Otis Williams double-sider can hear 'em back to back @ around 95 minutes into the show via the link below! Otis Williams - Take Me Back Otis Williams - I Got To Have You https://www.sixmillionsteps.com/6MS-2010-10-17-Starpoint.mp3 Enjoy! Ian D
  18. And here a 'lil tribute we did on yesterday's Original Mastercuts show with the General played throughout........... OK, we indulged in a mini Norman "General" Johnson tribute on this week's show as a testament to one of the GREAT voices of Soul Music for the last 50 years, plus played the OTHER side of the BRILLIANT Otis Williams double-sider from '79, a Charles Drain alternative vocal and mix on "Lifetime Guarantee Of Love", a couple of fresh Neil Thompson remixes, a killer re-edit on Ullanda McCullough's Original Mastercuts fave "Bad Company", a couple of interesting Mellow items and the usual bunch of Soulful gems from across the eras.

Laters....... Ian D
  20. Repeat going out now folks 5.00-7.00pm on www.starpointradio.com with a bit of a mini Norman 'General' Johnson tribute! Ian D
  21. No probs. I'l be posting a link of the show up on Monday. For anyone who can catch the show, I'll be playing both "Take Me Back" and "I Got To Have You" at around 3.20pm today on www.starpointradio.com. Ian D .
  22. Yep, playing that @ 3.00pm Dave. Also I was going through stuff and got to Harrison Kennedy's "I'm In Love Darling" which sounds like it's actually Norman on lead! Decided to save it for a week or two to prevent any confusion but I'd swear that it's actually the General....... I seem to be doing these mini-tribute shows all the bloody time these days - Luther, Levi, Michael and now the general. Sad times..... And I'll second the 'Artist of the Week' nomination. Ian D
  23. OK, a Normal 'General' Johnson Original Mastercuts mini-tribute coming up LIVE @ 2.00pm today......... This week, another one of our heroes, Norman 'General' Johnson from the Showmen and Chairmen Of The Board passed away so naturally I'll be doing my level best to do a 'lil Original Mastercuts tribute to one of the most distinctive and enduring voices in Soul Music history. If you have a dry eye by the end of the show you won't be the only one 'cos this guy was one of the soundtracks to my youth. R.I.P. Norman. We love ya. The Original Mastercuts Show with Ian Dewhirst LIVE this Sunday 17th October 2010 between 2.00-4.00pm on everyone's favourite Soul station www.starpointradio.com. Featuring...... Sam Jackson & Bridget Fonda * Chairmen Of The Board * The Temptations * Soularis * Mr Fingers * Westcoast Soulstars feat Eli & Janne * Brian Cuthbertson feat Kenny Lattimore * Dee Dee Sharp Gamble * Ullanda McCullough * Change * Eugene Wilde * The Showmen * Chairmen Of The Board * Ruby Andrews * Tearra * Charles Drain * Sam Dees * Otis Williams * Voices Of East Harlem * Otis Williams * Maria Lawson * Sharifa * Patti LaBelle * Ricky Bohannon * General Johnson & The Chairmen * Chairmen Of The Board LIVE @ 2.00pm today folks!

  24. Well, generally around this time of the year I'd normally be careering around the Prestatyn Weekender dipping my toe into all the different rooms. However, once again I've managed to come down with my usual bi-annual dose of killer flu due to 80% of London coughing and spluttering in my face every 3 minutes! So I flirted with the idea but I think it was the prospect of a 12 hour return drive, 48 hours of no sleep and 2 days of dining at the Beachcomber which put paid to this year's excursion. So I put a show together instead. Plus, this week, another one of our heroes, Norman 'General' Johnson from the Showmen and Chairmen Of The Board passed away so naturally I'll be doing my level best to do a 'lil Original Mastercuts tribute to one of the most distinctive and enduring voices in Soul Music history. If you have a dry eye by the end of the show you won't be the only one 'cos this guy was one of the soundtracks to my youth. R.I.P. Norman. We love ya. Anyway, an absolutely BELTING show this week folks with the usual pick of the best new releases, killer re-edits, creative remixes, 80's gems, Northern classics, some undersung and relatively unknown beautiful mellow gems, an alternative Charles Drain take on a classic and both the A and B sides of the unbelievable Otis Williams release from 1979 - the best 70's double-sider I think I've ever heard and totally unknown until J. Soulsmith dug it up! This is what we live for innit? The Original Mastercuts Show with Ian Dewhirst LIVE this Sunday 17th October 2010 between 2.00-4.00pm on everyone's favourite Soul station www.starpointradio.com. Featuring.........

  25. Yeah, for sure it ranks big time - probably around 5th for me, after the four I just mentioned. Out of the 60's cuts, Brenda does it for me. In fact I have a different mix from the You Tube clip which is much better. Brenda's version is the best for me from the 60's, but overall Randy Crawford's version is the ultimate killer for me.
