  1. Close call but it’s Ree for me.
  2. Hey Steve, I remember the peanut duck painting inside your record box in 1976.
  3. Went last year and got the Impressions Can't Satisfy HMV £20 - Parliaments Don't Be Soar At Me £15 - and my mate got Flaming Emeralds Fee £40 For some reason I left the Mr Floods Party Ember for £50. Bet its not there next time. Defiantly some bargains to be had.
  4. Tony Middleton lived in Paris. I didn’t know that, he told us PB was written with a Manhattan jazz bar in mind.
  5. She appeared at the Meadow Lane club - Notts County Football Club about 22 years ago. Event was put on by a Notts guy John Wilkinson (Wilko) a few months later Linda Griner was on.
  6. The 6 Brit nights booked are July - —. December and are listed on SS in events. Including John Poole, Steve Frost, Rich Broughton, Mick H, Rob Smith, Glyn Sisson, Nev Shooter, Steve Phillis, Alex Gallagher and myself. Some guests have also been booked. Not wishing to hijack this thread with an events advert but it’s well worth knowing.
  7. Many years ago our website designer used a picture he had found on the internet and added it to our website. Within days I had a demand for payment from Getty Images claiming they owned the rights to the picture. I had it removed and never heard another word. Obviously I didn't pay.
  8. Hi, anyone got Steve Frost's phone number and if so can you pm it to me Thanks in advance - Mick
  9. It was said many years ago that Tim's copy of FW was slightly warped due to a chip shop incident
  10. Silver text is enough to say stay clear
  11. There’s a boot same colour as this but has silver text. This one look good to me.
  12. Hey Steve, it turned out that he came from Sherwood and not Stapleford. Hope you well mate
  13. Bought my copy of the man himself many years ago on one of my USA trips. I think he did the 3 diamond ones for his Prestatyn visit.
  14. Soz for saying boot - meant none original
  15. I’ve seen it booted on 3 diamonds (blue) but not on Ro jam
  16. Only just found this old thread so here's my threepence worth. I spoke to Sammy at Kev's soultrip 2006 and he told me his well rehearsed stories of the George Blackwell days and how he escaped them because his brother had a bigger gun than the one George's wife was holding. In addition, he said Job opening was recorded in 63 and released in 65 and went on to say he personally payed for recording, studio time, label design, studio musicians, record manufacture, boxing and delivery. All costs were met by himself with no help from anyone else. So all good so far. I met Sammy for a second time at Prestatyn, we had a good chat propping the bar up in the Queen Vic. Sammy didn't recognise me from our previous meeting and went on to tell me the stories once again. I didn't have the heart to say we've already been here so I once again listened with great interest. At the end I asked - If you payed out all your money leaving you broke for the making of this record why did you bother doing a demo run and issue run. He replied - Demo man I ain't going up that avenue. I asked why and he said No No No ain't going there. My theory - Sammy came over to the UK in the 70's to record an LP, (for - no names mentioned) did he bring the pressing plates with him and the rest is history. It's fact that the demos were in circulation in the late 70's could it be an early form of product placement. I mentioned this at the time to a few soul gurus but didn't get a good response. It's pretty obvious that Sam has some problem with the demo and I may be well off the mark. Who knows
  17. Worth every penny. Go on throw your life savings at it
  18. So sad - Only met him a few times, he was so welcoming and so knowledgeable. RIP - M&M
  19. That would make sense. RT told me his set had been recorded but Richard on the radio sounds more feasible.
  20. The original acetate was found by John Poole in Max Kids basement with no name or song title on it. It was covered up as Kenni Lewis due to the Max kid / Kenni Lewis Shrine connection. Andy Rix and Rob Thomas made it a top unavailable sound about 16 years ago, the title and artist were guess work. Rob Thomas eventually let it go to Lou Stanley and Lou sold it on to Kitch (Nottm soul collector - DJ - record dealer - manfromsoul.co.uk ) To my knowledge Kitch still owns the 1st copy to this day. A couple of years ago a second acetate turned up this one was recognised by one of the guys in the bands who said it was sung by Leroy Taylor. The Shrine - connection pops up again so looks very creditable. I have bought 3 copies of the new release on Federal Green Records for myself and two close friends. The playback is 100% perfect. Well done Federal Green. There was a white labelled bootleg about which came from a dodgy recording of one of Rob Thomas's DJ sets - Sound quality was very poor. I don't know of any Pete Smith connection but pay homage to John, Andy and Rob for discovering a record that has stayed in my top 5 for longer than I care to remember. Personally I think Federal Green Records got the title wrong (The Marrying Kind) and think it was meant to be called Not The Marrying Kind Mick
  21. Look forward to high flyers each month. Nice to see present-day prices on records I have owned or still own and ones Id like to own, Surprises me how some are overpriced and others quite reasonable
