Blimey. The releases are just piling through right now! To follow up the 6 Backbeats we released last month, now we have another 6 coming on the 20/05/13. 
 
These are all available now for a mere £4.13 delivered to your door! If there's a better value series in the world I'll be surprised! 
 
Once again we're joined by Messrs Dean Rudland, Ralph Tee and Jaffa who have all stirred up another 6 stormers! Order 'em now to lock that ridiculous price!

They could buy 1 a week with their pocket money, then that's all of them just in time!    :yes:

Finished copies should be in tomorrow touch wood. These 6 will probably appeal to those with more eclectic or wide-ranging tastes I reckon. But I must say there's some killer stuff in these 6. I went through hell trying to locate decent masters for the Paaaarty time volume but got there in the end. Can't believe how difficult some of those Jewel/Paula/Ronn funky 45's are! Thank God for serious collectors!

That's mine and Sean Hampsey's volumes. You'll be well happy! That is a ridiculously great deal. To get almost 3 hours of quality Soul music all beautifully mastered and legally licensed delivered to your door for less than £8 is almost too good to be true. The series was designed for the recession and hopefully it's brought some joy into people's lives without costing a fortune.

Grab 'em while you can! There's over 50 volumes out there and I recommend all of 'em LOL. 70 hours of music for less than a beat up copy of Skip Jackson sounds like a bargain to me!

That's a good system Andy. I might try it myself since I never have time to listen to 'em at leisure!

Great stuff Ian. I'm really enjoying the April batch. It's cost me a few extra quid as I've discovered some new stuff and thought I better have one of those so I've had a flurry of vinyl purchases from the states too. You're a bad influence! :wicked:

 

:D

 

Nice work buddy.

Haha LOL. I've always contended that putting great tracks on compilations increases the worth of record rather than diminishing it. When I did the Mastercuts series back in the 90's, I'd get people moaning at me because I'd suddenly made a rare track available and they thought their original vinyl would drop in price. Never happened. Within months of a Mastercuts album coming out, the original vinyl prices would often double or triple very quickly. Eventually even the most hardened record dealers would thank me for widening the potential audience which had the effect of making more people want an original.

 

Compilations are essentially good sampler albums. You hear something you like, then you start digging around for more. They encourage musical curiosity which I think is a good thing. That's why I encourage multiple compilers because you get plenty of different views. There's enough brilliant music out there to sustain the Soul scene for another 100 years.

 

But if you can grab 75 minutes of expertly selected music on a physical format for £3 delivered to your door, then I reckon that takes some beating for convenience and value. You hear something you like, then track down an original. What's not to like?

Well I took this batch to the limit due to some last minute paperwork delays. Amazon should have got their stock today or Monday latest, so maybe they need another day or so to deal with my tardiness LOL.

 

I can't believe they've dropped the price to a staggering £3.00 each including delivery! You can get 3 of this new batch for £9 or all 6 for £18 which is madness. They are selling like the proverbial hotcakes though which is obviously good news....

Good! You should get the lot as vols 11-20 will be deleted in another 6 months or so. They're seriously hard to beat for the price!

Damn, Backbeats "In The Pocket" just got knocked off the No.1 slot on Amazon's Soul chart by "The Poet" by Bobby Womack as a result of that great BBC4 documentary.

 

But that's OK by me!  :thumbsup:  

 

I don't mind being No.2 to an album like that!  :lol:
