Thanks Mikey - but I'll be more than happy to keep it for the mo! Mind you, may still take you up on your offer if I fall on hard times!

Thanks Mikey! I don't feel too bad now, having paid £209 including P&P.

Erm.....yes Pete. It was...erm...um....me who won the bidding for the "shit record"!

Don't ever recall seeing this on sale. I would imagine it to be genuinely rare - any idea on current price tag?

About £40 on the Precisions..............

If Your Love Is Real by Mafia Barnett

Lavern Baker - Wrapped, Tied and Taglatellied

Isn't that dependent on mauve issue, yellow issue or white demo?

Oh, come on Gash! Last copy I know of went for around £350 (or £1,500 if you qoute The Northern Soul Top 500 book!). I've loved it for ages. Still a good record, but a bugger to clear the floor with for some reason. No one seems to wnt to dance to it anymore.

I'd Think It Over - Sam Fletcher

She also probably noticed her own suspender belt still attached to one of the stockings!

Maybe he's sleeping rough on Brewood Road?

Well if that's the case, if anyone's interested, I have the following for sale: FATBOY SLIM: The Rockefeller Skank (samples "Sliced Tomatoes") 12" - £150 (bargain!)

It's yours Stuart! You sure you're not confusing this track with "Glad All Over" by the Leon Young Strings?

WIlson Pickett - Don't Let The Green Grass Fool You Seth Connors - Blue Color Billy Thomson - Black Eyed Girl ...........this is actually harder than it first seemed!

Dee Dee Warwick - Where Is That Rainbow

Someone can have my UK Mint Columbia issue for £20 in that case.............bargain!

Is there something we should all know about, Stuart?

Just being my usual self Gash!

Does "One Bo-Dillion Years" count?

Sam Bowie - Think Of The Times We Had Together - Wingate Bill Lucas - Cause I Know You're Mine - Dionn

"Work Song" - quite well-covered, but Trade Martin's version on RCA does it for me above the rest!

Hi Paul, Hope you're well mate! Sorry, but the Bud Harper did actually sell some time ago! (rushes to put the phone down) All the best, Gene

Mike Field from Worthing, West Sussex? Don't talk to me about him. He was a user, and quite unpleasant at times. He phoned me at home one evening. After keeping me chatting for 10 minutes with small talk, he then asked if I would sell "Wherever You Were" by Bud Harper to him. Just after I said "No, sorry Mick", the rude bastard hung the phone up without even a Goodbye! Friends I knew in the late 80s/early 90s avoided Mick like the plague. He was a conditional mate, ie; if he could use you to get what he wanted off you, without even a "Thank You".

I only pitch up/down on certain tracks where it is needed. For instance, the instrumental B-side of "Alone With No Love" by the Contemplations was recorded a tad slower than the vocal, so I always play this pitched up to +1 so it sounds acceptable.
