Hi, Here's a thread about Dave's sad death in 2021.

Once you've completed the training are you allowed to have letters after your name. This would let everybody know your status. Perhaps... "Trained With Accredited Tutor"

Here's a thread from 2011 which gives details, background and values at the time. Worth reading...

I don't think the UK copies "jump" as such. I think it's just something to do with the recording. It's as if the sound for the UK copy was taken from a USA copy that DID jump. So, the actual vinyl on UK copies is fine, it's just the recording. Hope that makes sense!! Take a listen (and look) at 1min 45 seconds on this JM youtube clip. You can hear it BUT I can't see the needle jump. I picked up a USA copy on ebay from a seller in Sweden for a very good price in 2020. I think it was listed in the wrong category.

Nation Records has an Eagle. Tommy B features again with Boxer. Not sure if the little fella on Monster Masters counts!

Just another reminder.. Please get in touch if you have a British DEMO for sale - Major Lance, Monkey Time. Thanks

There was a thread in 2015 which I chipped in on (see below). My old NAD 3020e from 1987 is STILL going strong. It has a Mono button. There are some on eBay, here's an example (I have no connection to the seller, it's just for info) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115980070796?hash=item1b00f36f8c:g:jfEAAOSwLNNlUfUs&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4NHjddEkRXZ79kv7%2F%2FALC572%2BYgaZL2pYKV3uMR1G5u7VTAriLimgNwCZIXI7A8B34ZV4qc28M%2BAz%2F6IK5abfyp5RKGjzbPjUxTcVdvujwVRATC06Fx60aPrBQDkMXTck2eEsHKzXUnXMAakJKdm1qqrQHbuFJd%2BFKeL6dHJ2xKpcV8pbZ3qCMX2U%2B%2Fu8ky1OveVVs9oVUcyCH5YXl7MDG2O5E8NjoQsr200%2Fnua8E6MJ1ne3G%2BoQSEEIiGGfEMvcFRmM0sLZCvJHySNffjwpQdysu%2BQTDVcXqlG%2F3lJnnT7|tkp%3ABk9SR8bljon_Yg Cheers, KB

In fairness, the guy can sing - it's just that he's more Pat Boone than Ray Pollard. So that's not good! The lyrics are a collection of generic cliché's that have been cobbled together. So, that's not good either!! I did wonder if an instrumental would be any better. However, no, it wouldn't!!! From an environmental point of view, I agree with Mr. Woodbutcher hoping that not too much plastic has been wasted used. On the plus side, they have generated some attention for the product (is all publicity good publicity?). Next move, perhaps get some World Championship standard Northern Soul dancers to feature in a video.

Steve Jeffries was selling one on his Rare Northern Soul site/listings. This was in the last week. Nor sure if it sold. He was asking £2,500. Good luck with the search.

"You Can Split" is a particular favorite of mine. Youngblood Smith also recorded as Quick Brown Fox. His real name appears to be Richie Bellina. There was a previous thread about his identity in 2014.. When I saw @Roger Banks was selling the QBF record today, I started having a mooch on the internet/youtube. Anyway, on youtube you can find video of "Manny and the YUNKsters". A guy called "Richie Bellina" was the singer. As referenced in the previous thread, the "Youngblood Smith" Richie was from ManaYUNK in Philly PA.. So, it doesn't seem too far fetched to think they are the same guy. So, is this video from 1990 our man "Youngblood Smith"?? He appears at 33 seconds in. Any thoughts?

An old mate, Mickie Taylor, had a T-Shirt especially printed to wear at Wigan. It said "RIKA LIKE-A"! This moment in time was caught on camera (on the left hand side). I'm not sure they would have been on sale at Blackpool
