With me I'll take a gamble on a vg if it's cheap or if its something I have never heard.. I quiet often buy VG's that I don't know then replace them if I like them, and label damage isn't a problem, as I dj with all my records so, a couple of marks don't really matter.. If I collected then it would be different I expect. What annoys me is when a Vg is rubbish people use to many grades in my opinion on records. Mint it mint But when you start getting M= M M- VG++ VG+ VG VG- VG-- G++++ G+++ G++ G+ G G- And so on and if you buy one in a rush last minute say a VG- it has more scratches on it then Streatham Ice Rink...

I think its wrong if they charge dealers who may have 4 box's, but then let people with a couple of box's walk around for free. It should be free for all. after all at a weekender this is the entertainment in the day. This is the gathering point. The meeting point for most people.

yes but did you know they also sell records in on the scene... Think this is making up when everyone moaned about selling scooters.

I think you should have added this in more forums!!!!!

and Keb Darge could go on not cause he's grumpy, but when hes on telly I always have to watch it 10 times to work out what he's saying... Quality viewing...

To get away from all the seriousness for a minute. Ok if your mate popped round and went through your box's what record would you be most embarrassed about him finding, not your play box I mean the box where you have bought something out of interest, because of the label or producer etc.. Played it and thought what the funk is this old cap. Ok mine is, "love and desire" Arpeggio S Soussan/S Barnes/J Cash Polydor.. 1978

From the same web site -- £5.99 SIDE ONE 1 Brick - Dazz 2 James Walsh Gypsy Band - Cuz It's You Girl SIDE TWO 1 Edna Wright - Oops Here I Go Again 2 Lamont Dozier - You Make Me A Believer This EP is taken from the forthcoming CD/LP Soul Culture Vol 1 (Straight Ahead)...Part one of a major Sony-BMG three part release compiled by writer, journalist DJ and world renowned Soul Music, Rare Groove and Northern Soul expert Dean Rudland. The rare groove scene has always been misunderstood - never really about rarity per se, but rather more about the undiscovered and under appreciated sounds of black America finding favour on the UK's multi-racial dance floors. Album tracks, obscure singles even US hits that meant nothing here have often been picked up by the dedicated DJ and that is why compilations such as this exist. Soul Culture is a three CD/LP series featuring some of the hippest, coolest, rarest and most sought after tracks ever. Brick -"Dazz" (A conjunction of the words Disco & Jazz) kicks off this EP in style with one of the biggest dancefloor fillers of the Disco era, achieving No.1 on The Billboard Black Singles Charts, No.3 on the Pop Singles chart and No.7 on the Club Play Singles chart in 1976...Next up is James Walsh Gypsy Band -"Cuz It's You Girl" featuring a piano intro with sharp horns and spine tingling vocal this was a truly massive record on the Northern Soul scene and it's no wonder an original copy can easily fetch £150...this really is a wonderful record...Side two features Edna Wright "Oops Here I Go Again" and Lamont Dozier "You Make Me A Believer"...Wright had sung in the Blossoms alongside her sister, Darlene Love and was a member of the Soul Super Group Honey Cone who's singles, "While You're Out Looking For Sugar" (the debut single on Holland/Dozier/Holland's Hot Wax label) and "Girls It Ain't Easy", were R&B hits in 1969, before two 1971 soul chart-toppers, "Want Ads" and "Stick Up", established the trio (the former also topped the pop charts). "Oops Here I Go Again" is the title track (Single) of her 1977 album written and produced by her husband Greg Perry and is another truly wonderful piece of soul music...and we conclude this four track EP sampler with one of the all time greats and Hall of Fame life member Lamont Dozier "You Make Me A Believer". By the mid 70s original Supremes songwriter Lamont Dozier had embarked on a performing career. It was really a return to what he had originally planned to be before he teamed up with Eddie and Brian Holland and wrote many of Motown's greatest hits for the likes of The Supremes, The Four Tops and Martha and the Vandellas, and after Motown he penned hits for Freda Payne and the Chairmen Of The Board. In 1974 Lamont left his own label and started a solo career that took him to ABC, Warners and then Columbia where 'You Make Me A Believer' was recorded...All in all this four track EP is deserving of every serious record collection and I wholeheartedly recommend it to you... https://www.simplyvinyl.com/more.asp?catid=88&page=1&id=767

I was on at an alldayer it was 2.00 in the afternoon... I just got it and the room was quiet empty.. Tell you what, makes you wonder if there is only one acetate how come so many of us know it? "Anyway the Cd's done with all originals. "

Have a good day "Congratulations"

If you've bought to many records and upset your other half treat them to this on ebay. ebay offer that can't be missed

What market is the album aimed at. If you like motown its pants, and I imagine if your into modern day, chart soul/r'n'b its also pants. So I reckon its aimed at all them ladies that go arobics, you know the ones;- snide Gucci bags and think there still 25. "I heard it through the grapevine" is the backing music someone playing the spoons?
