Harry Crosby

Nice record, but i gotta say i prefer the MOMENTS version myself

Funny that tony,about 5yrs ago i was building an extension at the college opposite morrisons, and was thinking at the time i`m sure the hotel cottages was round here ps anyone know what happened to DUSTY?

Bit hazy but remember this venue from many moons ago used to know a lad called dusty from boroubridge, also the rippon girls bev & silvia and of course julie dobbs, any info please

Cheers roger, HARRY[the vinyl ferret] CROSBY

Tell you what there was loads of kiss my love goodbye betty swann, we just gave them away or threw them away

totally agree with you there mate was just saying to wife not heard it for a while, my mate has an american youth oppertunities promo album its live, she`s talking about her new record and how she backs the youth oppertunity programme, then says this is my new single and sings HEARTACHES AWAY MY BOY brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!

theres a thread on sharp end of vinyl section ernie

Havn`t read the whole thread, but think this ones quite rare

yeh they were issues eddie, it could have been me or the other four lads from york who did the same that night

The night something hit me on the head, i bent down to pick it up and it was a plastic bag full of blue capsules, one of my mates promptly took them off me, then came back about an hour later and gave me a load of cash, back to the record bar for me

Ok mate thanks for the advice will do

Think what it was to me was within a very short period of time from knowing relitavly nothing about northern soul music and the scene as a whole, indeed never reall stepping foot out of yorkshire, i was taken to this place that was the ultimate night out and from then on loved every minute of the place, after it shut it was very hard to find a place that gave me what wigan gave me, the clifton hall at rotherham gave me back a certain amount of this and was a great venue in its own right, but there was something about that place for me personally, and believe me over the years ive been to some great venues and met some of the best people ive met in my life, but i don`t think i could ever replace those nights, i am a great believer in moving on the scene and it will be with me forever, just those nights were so special to me, and the memories will live with me forever, remember this is only my opinion

So SWISH was right then, and it was all there just down the road from us in york

Also didn`t a lot of copies of ALICE CLARK-YOU HIT ME come off bradford market, also don`t know wether this was a fable or not but SWISH from york told me DEAN PARRISH-I`M ON MY WAY also came from there as well

Bostocks also had a store in york, they used to do soul packs of ten singles for £1, remember at one time getting kenny smith-lord whats happening, taking them to sell at the casino only to realise everyone else in york had done the same got some good stuff out of bostocks god knows how many copies of betty swan came out of there along with spyder turner, there was at least two in every pack

With regards to precisions neil, i heard about this some time ago and every time i mentioned it was just laughed off the planet, at last some verification, can`t wait to see a certain person

HERE, HERE well put pete

Good old thumper not heard it for a while now

Label looks very similar to SPAR of herbert hunter fame any link roger?

So who got a new STOP WATCH for xmas then

Think RITA & THE TIARAS gone with the wind, or DON RAY born a loser getting up there with the shortest

PM`D YA

That was and still is in some instances my policy, however i was pulled over from the fast lane on to the hard shoulder by my wife, who now leaves me standing, as i sit back and watch shaking my head knowingly

Top stories mate hope i`m still around to read it when you do finish it
