v interesting gareth thanks for posting up :thumbsup:

Our story starts in 1968 when a young Scottish lad obsessed with Soul music and in love with all it represented came to the US in search of his favorite records. His name is John Anderson, and he represented the vanguard of the European invasion of the US in search of vintage vinyl, although there were a few US collectors like the Stolper Brothers hunting around it was mainly a European assault. John turned his love of the music into a business and began importing the US 45s and LPs to England. A preview of what was later to be called the northern soul collecting mania.

somebody should make a film about this sort of thing :D

How come there isn't a speck of dirt anywhere in the shop? It's absolutely spotless!!

:( Ah Joan, don't we just love the female of the spieces !! All the blokes are staring open jawed at the records & you notice how lovely & clean it's been kept :yes:
