Midas Touch Records List 58 (July)

[Chris Anderton]

Hi Guys,

Welcome along to list 58, a little later than usual due to me being on hols for a week!

Sales Cds are always popular, they usually come out a few days before the main list is sent out. The Cds feature a sample of around 60 of the tracks from the main list, giving you first chane to buy the tracks you want and also enabling you to hear some tunes that may be new to you. You get 3x monthly CDs for only £5.00. I accept paypal to the usual address or you can send a cheque/ cash to the address listed below.

Grading is as follows......

M Faultless/ Probably unplayed

E Few light marks, still a nice copy

vg More marks, maybe some surface noise but plays thru ok

I will also use + or minus to indicate grades in more detail. I also offer a 100% money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with any record for any reason, so please buy with confidence.

Payment, I accept paypal to this address chris.soul@btinternet.com or you can send cash/ cheque to; Chris Anderton, 1 Jackson Av, Nantwich, Cheshire, CW5 6LL. I will now also accept a direct bank transfer, this saves the hassle of sending a cheque or needless paypal fees.Postage costs are... £1.90 recorded (only insured up to £34) or £5.20 by special delivery in the UK (fully insured up to £1000). Overseas £2.00 airmail or £5.20 signed for airmail, ask if you need insurance.Please note if you do not take out the correct amount of postal insurance and your item is missing or damaged this is not my fault.

I will be guesting at the next Willington event (between Burton and Derby) on Saturday 18th July. For Me Willington is the unsung hero of the Midlands soul scene, always a decent turn out and always a great atmosphere. I will be there with my sales boxes and look forward to seeing some of you ther for a top night out! Thanks to everyone who supported the last "Dab of Soul" event in June, we had another fantastic night! The next date is August 22nd with guest DJs Russ Vickers and Paul Havekin.
