Northern Soul Uk

Anyone got any info on this version please?

£1295 finish. Still a record (pardon the pun) for this?

yes strange they all should pull out today when the auction finishes in a few hours, and I don't think you can retract a bid when it get to 12 hours to the end of the auction. I smell a rat.

Yes when you retract a bid for say 'I entered the wrong amount', it says you can bid on the auction putting the correct amount you wish to bid.

Edited my post Pete, have a look now.

Yeah the only way that could happen is if someone has withdrawn a bid, But it doesn't just withdraw 1 bid, say someone has set their maximum bid to say £2000, and the he withdraws that bid, it withdraws every bid they have made to get to where the bidding was when they withdrew, so that takes the bid down quite a lot as in this case. I bet the seller is p***ed off tho'. Complicated I know, but that's how it works. Then maybe the same bidder that withdrew their bid has placed a smaller bid? Just looked again and these are the withdrawn bids Bid retraction and cancellation history Bidder Action Date of bid and retraction p***i( 112) Retracted: £1,550.00 Bid:30-Mar-15 21:41:54 BST Retracted: 04-Apr-15 20:33:22 BST 2***l( 739) Retracted: £1,020.00 Bid:28-Mar-15 19:27:02 GMT Retracted: 04-Apr-15 20:58:34 BST .***0( 16) Retracted: £1,600.00 Bid:31-Mar-15 19:36:42 BST Retracted: 04-Apr-15 18:38:55 BST Strange that, 3 different bidders retracting bids?? They may have been reading this thread, or apparently another one has gone on for £1200 so I have been made aware.

At he the end of the day it's different strokes for different folks as with everything, there is always going to be likers and haters for everything. Coming on here saying something is crap, or something is brilliant is OK, providing you realise that that is your opinion, and there will be as many disagree with you, as agree with you.

Just put a copy of the album in eBay Sales forum

Timi Yuro album 'Something bad on my mind' includes 'It'll never be over for me' https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Northern-Soul-Timi-Yuro-Original-Rare-Album-inc-039-It-039-ll-never-be-over-for-me-/311330634642?

On the subject of other versions, has anyone heard the Pat Lewis version? Got a copy on 'Joe Boy' which I believe was bundled with a CD as the record has a CD holder middle in it. Whats the score with this version, I have checked her albums but no sign of it on those.

Just found a new track, it's by the 'Not a clues' and it;s called 'It will never be overpriced for me'

Another blinder! and this time is a CD. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Various-Artists-Northern-Soul-Generation-Keep-The-Faith-CD-New-/381151626423?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item58be6844b7

Or booking the wrong DJs

"And if I were a promoter I wouldn't dream of not paying my DJ's" Agreed, Why wouldn't DJs be paid, they spend hundreds and sometimes thousands on their collections, and they are booked to play the records they have bought. It's like asking a joiner to build you a kitchen and not paying them cos they can do it or they enjoy doing it. Many DJs, myself included do it as a profession, a job and a means of earning money to live. It's OK doing it for free if that's what you want, or to get your name of flyers etc. for your CV fair dinkum.

Me neither LOL. You might as well get the DJ to announce what the tune after the one he is playing is going to be, save the expense of cameras and screens being installed "and the next tune I'll be playing after this one is Tomangos on a boot, so if you don't want to dance to it you can go and order you drink at the bar after this one. you should have enough time because the tune I'll be playing after that will be an original copy of The Salvadors, which you will definitely want to dance to" LOL

and as of late even if you had a box full of bootlegs they would be worth a fortune the way prices are going recently, with people paying huge amounts of wonga for boots with look alike original labels stuck over 'em.

In my humble opinion and for what it's worth, one of the exciting things about going to an event as a punter is NOT knowing what is coming next. Knowing the next tune every time would also spoil that element of surprize for the DJ too. You wouldn't get the same buzz from the crowd if they all knew what was coming next. One of the fun things about DJing is dropping a tune out of the blue and watching the crowd react.

£40 tops, but hey! if someone wants to give me £125 for mine all well and good

LOL!! Stunning eh?? Actually it's not THAT bad LOL. But dare you play it? Pretty funky for a fat bird on a piano Oh Crap, I've done it again haven't I? Batten down the hatches

What next?? I'll tell you what's next :-) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MOD-NORTHERN-SOUL-MRS-MILLS-WERE-GONNA-THROW-A-LITTLE-PARTY-VG-/151626617106?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item234da69112

Ends today Monday 23rd March, at around dinnertime, along with 4 other top classics including, Jeanette Williams - All of a sudden, Little Richard - Get down with it UK Demo, Mary Love - you turned my bitter into sweet, and Soul Generation - Hold on - Grapevine Demo. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311319157126…

My feelings too Ian. No need to go to all that trouble to do a boot, it's likely to sell anyway if it's an in demander.

yes Roburt I did see post 18, it just seems that it was a lot of trouble to go to remastering it, making the label look so clean and lifelike and adding the 'Div of ABC Dunhill', when whoever Booted it if it is a boot, could have just done a straight copy of the original and the label and probably made as much money? There are not many Boots that I have seen that look and sound better than the original. Reminds me somewhat of the 'Coasters - Crazy baby' repress. I and many thought for years that it was a boot and it turned out to be a ligit 'Atco/Atlantic' repress.

Thanks Tony

So, just got a 2nd release copy of this and the sound quality is excellent. I take it that it must have been remastered. It has been mentioned in an earlier post on this thread as being a 'So called boot', so is it a boot or is it an official repress maybe due to the sound quality? In my experience of remixing, to remaster a track properly, you would need the actual separate parts of the track to be able to boost or lower the offending properties. Could this have been the case or was it just a matter of re-recording the track with less bass, which would be hard to do if as said above the original recording record was muffled? Does anyone know who Booted/Reissued it? and whether they had access to the original masters?
