i do get out locally ie poole dorset and even went over to the southampton alldayer last week but im afraid i just keep hearing the same old records and then bugger me ruby sodding andrews and hey presto the dance floors rammed!This track it seems has been big since time begun. Im sure there must be better records than that around at the mo.

still dont get the clue unless of course you mean the parisians which aint half bad

Not being funny mate .....you are suffering i,m afraid from living down south....as do l. The sets of music played are generally across the board wishy washy...floaty floaty something for everyone....which means f**k all for anyone....ya gotta get above birmingham for the sets of music that make ya wanna go out,that make the night brill. Went out last night locally( herts) the music was all over the place because of this across the bored policy.....two top djs in attendance and the crowd just won,t let em play their proper sets.....both having to resort to BIG OLDIES....go north young man and the light will shine upon ya atb peggy babcock

Just stick with the classics, never fails.

[Ralf Mehnert]

Over here in Hamburg one new found record makes everyone going mental.

Willie & The Mighty Magnificents - Funky (8) Corners (Acetate)

It`s the unknown vocal version of the great instrumental on All Platinum. A perfect mix between Frankie Crocker and Archie Bell with a soulful voice to die for.

[Dave Abbott]

Been a big number for Simon Preston for a couple of years now at the Bmth railway, top tune

interestingly it came out twice same label, same number but the other under the artist of "Shine" which was his nick name.

can't think of any big spins really except

Two Plus Two

Parliaments

Salt & Pepper

Tommy & Derbys

Willie Tee - Great but not super great

Edith Brown

[JOHNNYBETCHA]

The Corvetts is absolutely brilliant!!

[Citizen P]

whats the other side of the supremes dutch 45,

Misery is also on the Reflections LP, and a cracking track it is too

Seen the Dutch issue, can't remember A side from top of me head, but it was one of the hits, Love Child maybe.

Tony

[Guest aintgotit]

Edith Brown - You did it

Again it's been around a few years and now getting the big spins it deserves. Rare and then some

Butch's Mighty Lovers c/u is the tune of the moment for me personally

Also have enjoyed Rudy Love - Sufferin Wrath over the last few years plus others too numerous to mention at places like Burnley & Lifeline. Also think the Tommy Dent track could be big if a UK DJ got a hold of one (anyone know who won the one on JM auction?)

[Chalky]

Same here Steve, Butch has been playing it for a few years now but still gets me pogoing.

[Pomonkey]

Still don't know where the JM Tommy Dent went, but a brief history of the record for you: Greg Tormo found the first which he traded to Finewine c. 1999, Finewine funnily right after that found the 2nd which he traded to me in mid 2000, Haim Kenig then had the 3rd in about 2003 which I won on ebay for very little despite it having a soundfile so happily sat on a spare for a fair old while until selling it to a good friend, then no more copies showed up for several years until 2 just a month apart recently, one was on ebay for a heartbeat then the clueless seller pulled it early and sold to Sebastian, think then Oscar R sent a copy to JM to auction (guessing it was you Oscar?), and as far as know that's it, us NY boys have quietly known about it for a decade+ and not seen any others floating around anywhere which is crazy considering it's on Cobblestone, Tommy and his band used to play here in Greenwich Village in the late 60's, oh to hear this live!! Incidentally don't know the condition of Seb's but all the other copies are in great shape.

any chance a soundfile? haven't seen much of JM's auctions of late.

Presumably this is different to the vocal on the regular 45, as that's the band telling jokes?

Be interested to hear this.

[pikeys dog]

Edith Brown ... Roger Banks played this for donkeys years - until he sold it very recently.

Think it was Ted Massey that made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

[Pomonkey]

Chalky listen to the show here, it's right near the start

one was on ebay for a heartbeat then the clueless seller pulled it early and sold to Sebastian, [...] Incidentally don't know the condition of Seb's but all the other copies are in great shape.

That's correct. Have been after it since I heard it on Finewine's show in 2003/2004 or so. I was by the way the second highest bidder on the copy that Haim Kenig auctioned on eBay a couple of years back which you got cheap (I had no idea it would prove to be that rare!). The copy I now finally have gotten my hands on is in superb shape, somewhere between EX and EX+ on both sides and plays perfect.

Don't know if refosoul is up, but I'll try to post both sides of the 45 if it's possible.

EDIT: just tried, refosoul is not working.
