Supercorsa Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Went out this morning with the wife to a market near where we live, just to say it was Kempton Market (on the racecourse). Anyway whilst looking around noticed three stalls selling CD's. First one I saw was selling home made reggae/hip hop type stuff, second one selling the old Irish stuff, Dubliners/Chieftains, etc., with other legit released stuff. It was the final stall that I came across that made me call Trading Standards once returned home. On the table top (underneath thick plastic sheeting so as you couldn't pick up the Cd cases), I couldn't help but notice a few CD's by the title of Rare Grooves. The badly printed covers had obviously been homemade, but mass photocopied, but there was something else that caught my eye. The use of flyers on them! Aprils 100 Club showing the names Ady Croasdell, James Trouble & Warren from Boogaloo, also a New Untouchables flyer, Prestatyn flyer, even Mace's flyer for this weekend in Birmingham! I don't honestly believe that these markettraders/bootleggers had permission to use these flyers! Anyway I'm waiting for Surrey trading standards to get back to me. I was thinking of buying one of the CD's, just to scan it and post it up, but I didn't want to give them 1p let alone a fiver. If any of you want to have a word with the sellers, Kempton market is on every Thursday.
Gene-r Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Yeh, I'm disappointed too Ian. Disappointed that they didn't use any of ours!
Guest Stuart T Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Yeh, I'm disappointed too Ian. Disappointed that they didn't use any of ours! Its all Martin's fault, I told you they were no good! In Guernsey recently Sharnya came across a faux harrington jacket with various northern soul images on it, including one from the Capitol Soul Club. I remember someone (a well known badge vendor ) trying to sell Alan Handscombe an unofficial CSC badge for a discount once as well. He wouldn't have minded except the bloke in question had never, as far as he knew, even bothered turning up once.

Well let's just hope that the flyers had the right to use any images they might have had on them
Guest Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Well let's just hope that the flyers had the right to use any images they might have had on them Good point Dave
Mace Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) even Mace's flyer for this weekend in Birmingham! Well let's just hope that the flyers had the right to use any images they might have had on them Well I drew every bit of my flyer by freehand...even the sax player (which is just very slightly different in design than the one used by a certain record label and record dealer in the past) so I'm in the clear....

Ady Croasdell Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Well let's just hope that the flyers had the right to use any images they might have had on them And mine are normally done with a John Bull printing set. If it's one of Virginie's she does her own mad drawings. Hey we're art; dead sheep with black fists a go go!
Pete S Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Well I drew every bit of my flyer by freehand...even the sax player (which is just very slightly different in design than the one used by a certain record label and record dealer in the past) so I'm in the clear.... The one used by a record dealer came straight off microsoft publisher!
Mace Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 The one used by a record dealer came straight off microsoft publisher! ...but that came from here originally mate... https://cgi.ebay.com/ART-BLAKEY-JAZZ-MESSEN...1QQcmdZViewItem ...unless some-one knows different....?????
