I personally really dislike this sort of label manipulation, don't see the point, just who are you fooling? BUT seller clearly states what this is in bold letters - sells for £46 laugh.gif . Why? Don't get it, don't want to get it.

I think this is just a case of someone not reading the text and seeing the label scan

noone in their right mind would pay that sort of money if they knew what they were getting

Because the person who bought it is obviously a fool and has no understanding of the RARE SOUL VINYL ETHIC, that record collecting is based solely on original records anything else is meaningless and a total waste of time money and energy, unfortunately there are venues (and i've seen them in my home city) where bootlegs are played, this is nothing short of an outrage, and I will not support venues with my hard earned money where these 'Fakes' playing illegal and fake records proliferate.The whole ethic as i learned it nearly 30 years ago was that the Soul scene was unique in that the very thing that set it apart from any other genre of music was the total commitment to The buying and playing of 'ORIGINAL ' records anything less then it is pure 'Circus' soul and an absolute disgrace and these people are not fit to clean my records with their filthy and oily cloth's..............

sad to say,a lot of the top oldies jocks( you know who they are ) are still making a good living

playing boots --and working every week-end

went to a venue a few weeks ago

bloke was playing

flash mckinley / karmello brooks /brooks bros /salvidors

all on boots

every record i play out is orig copy except

my imperial cs

which is the original frankford wayne copy

from the studio

you may as well put a cd on.... and just sit down for the hour

One of the many reasons I've basically packed in the DJ side of things Keith, got sick to the back teeth of all the pretenders making a mockery of the true art of DJ'ing.

But it needs people like you to show the younger ones coming through that original vinyl is the way to do it!!!!! The old booty brigate will soon leave the ship once again anyway. What makes a venue/scene special are many things but original vinyl is one very important part of the Soul Scene!!!! (& feggin always was)

I rather enjoy some youngster who plays The Carltons - Ooh Baby- Argo (Top Tune & Cheap) or any other tune on the original format and appreciates as well as enjoys the whole hunt, discovery, mystic and propper way to it, than some old hasbeen fart being rather then playing The Cheater!!!!good.gif

Thanks for that, if I could get myself a few gigs I might just get out there now and again and play a few, can still hold my own at any venue as I still have a few good quality tunes tucked away but I'm not gonna put my begging bowl out for gigs lol

Dean, just want to thank you for posting this.........earlier today I found, printed and pasted on scans of the real labels for 17 of the Stardust boots I have. Tomorrow I shall be listing them on ebay and a week tomorrow I will be laughing all the way to the bank :wicked::lol: :lol:

Reason people buy crud like this??? Either they just want to have it at home to listen to and like having vinyl not CDs....OK can understand this, just. Or they're complete wannabe DJs without the taste, talent or courage to play anything outside of the established safety zone. Think it's mainly people that fit into the second category that are also stupid enough to pay a laughable price for a £5max 45.

Who are they Keith? Maybe if they get "outed" folk would avoid the venues where they're guesting.
