Wrighty is in Jappy Land DJing this weekend, next weekend i'm out giving my gurl attention, the weekend after we have the office xmas party weekend, so it's gunna be at least another month by the looks of it! We've got some REALLY nice new records to play as well. I thnk it'll be worth the wait
MarkWhiteley Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 My top 5 (plus a few more) home plays: 5 Royals - Catch that Teardrop - ABC - R&B heaven! Joe Arnold - No Clouds In The Sky - 2 Spot - As above, perfect R&B and super rare. I feel so privaledged to own a copy! World's Funkiest band - When You're Alone - California Gold - "Cheap as chips" as the saying goes, but what a fantastic record!!! Volumes - Ain't Gonna Give You Up - Karen Johnny Nash - What Kind Of Love Is This - Grove Lee Shot Williams - Love Now Pay Later - Gamma - Must say thankyou to Mr. Buers for supplying me with this gem at sucha great price - Cheers buddy! Richard Caiton - I Like To get Near You - Up Tight - This is the one where I must cheat, comes from the Modern Millionaires CD as I haven't yet got my grubby mitts on a copy. WANTED
Guest Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 I rarely feel I get anything I really want, and this is not in any way an all time top 5, or perhaps even a current top 5, just 5 that I think are nice and 5 of many relatively recent acquisitions that I have not yet had the chance to play out over here. Clarence Townsend - I Found A New Love - Clara (would probably make the top 5 of records I own if I sat down and made such a top 5, top sound IMO) Eula Cooper - Let Our Love Grow Higher - Super Sound (top oldie, I love many of these groovy funky northern sounds) Carol Anderson - Taking My Mind Off Love - Whip (classic Detroit, only bad thing is that it is stereo, but you can't get everything I guess.) Tom Green - Endless Confusion - Action UK (good 1973 dancer, a bit spaced out in parts but stays on the right side of things. Does it exist on US? Was gonna sell it, but will keep it for now. I know this has been played a bit on modern floors but has it been getting any northern spins? Reminds me a bit of John Gary Williams "Whole Damn World..", only much better.) Bobby Bennett - Alone With My Tears - V-Tone (personally not the worlds biggest fan of beat ballads, but this is a damn good one, if nothing else I needed a good ender.)
MarkWhiteley Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 (edited) You might be an ugly c*nt but you've got great taste Stuart link Great taste right up to John Leach... Oh how I loathe that record! :diablo: I fail to see how ANYONE can actually enjoy listening to such an awful record! ..................or maybe that's cos I don't have one :diablo: Edited November 19, 2004 by billytheboot

Richard Caiton - I Like To get Near You - Up Tight - This is the one where I must cheat, comes from the Modern Millionaires CD as I haven't yet got my grubby mitts on a copy. WANTED link I think Joe Arnold is pretty good, but would not call it R&B, early soul is what it sounds like to me, sounds very much like "Stand By Me" with a clip clop beat added to my ears. Not sure it is super rare either, exists with both black and orange label. John Anderson sold a copy on ebay recently that went cheap (IMO) for £130 or something, I missed a copy listed flip up by Craig Moerer at $75 maybe a year ago. Don't think it is common though, and could perhaps become popular with some people. Dave Raistrick had an orange label copy at £200 at Prestatyn and Butch probably still has a black label copy at £250 in his sales box. Whatever the case, a nice early soul record and I think it is rare, if not super rare. The Volumes is a personal all time fave record, about as good as it gets IMO. The Worlds Funkiest Band is also a real goodie I think. I guess you all know that "I Need Your Love" by Tim on Celtex has the same backing track as Lee Shot Williams on Gamma, perhaps not the same thing, but still a good budget "version" since it is a £5 - £10 45.

Been a fave for a long time, and couldn't believe I got it for £130 after being told It'd cost me £600-800........ Although it now seems this is a little high. Guide says £600 orange, £500 black I think. Mine's black, and yes it does sound like "Stand By me". Othe side's very good too
Guest Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 £500 - £600 is crazy, £300 tops for either version, probably less. The copies I mentioned had been there for quite a while and are possibly still up for grabs. I think it is still largely unknown and that is why it is relatively cheap, might change quickly with a few spins by the right DJ's though, as we all know.
Marc Forrest Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 : Joe Arnold - No Clouds In The Sky - 2 Spot - As above, perfect R&B and super rare. I feel so privaledged to own a copy! WANTED link If a potential trade doesn` t come around I may have a minter of this indeed fanatstic tune up for grabs... M rc
MarkWhiteley Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Remember seeing flip listed by Craig Moerer, but thought it was more like $300? Although my memory frequently fails me... <_<
MarkWhiteley Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 If a potential trade doesn` t come around I may have a minter of this indeed fanatstic tune up for grabs... M rc link Marc the Wanted bit was for Richard Caiton. Got Joe Arnold.
Guest Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 I got the list somewhere, it was $75, perhaps he's had it at $300 after that though.
Marc Forrest Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Nice to have a look at some current playlists from DJs here - so, to kick off, here's my current Top 5 playlist: link Mine will include (at the Leipzig Allnighter) Little Tommy Mel Britt (as I had several -!- request to bring them along already) Sensations Ree Flores Frankie & The Damons for sure
Marc Forrest Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Marc the Wanted bit was for Richard Caiton. Got Joe Arnold. link I know mate, but maybe somebodyelse is still on the look for a copy
MarkWhiteley Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 I know mate, but maybe somebodyelse is still on the look for a copy link What colour is it?
Marc Forrest Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 What colour is it? link Black as Black can be
MarkWhiteley Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Black as Black can be link so's mine Think you'd struggle to sell it on here. Only few that know how rare it are the ROTR lurkers, of which I am a proud member! Perhaps if you chuck a couple of scans and a soundbite maybe people would hear just how good it is... Or better still, we could steal a pair of Soul Sam's gloves, turn them inside out, and stamp his fingerprints all over the vinyl (although being VERY careful not to scratch ) . If this won't get it some attention, nothing will!!!
Soulie78 Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Some of the stuff I'm about to play in Nuremberg, also I'm not really sure now: Wilson Pickett - Baby don't you weep (Liberty Germany) Dottie & Millie - Nothing in this world (Topper) Mill Evans - When I'm ready (Tou-Sea) Archie Bell & the Drells - 1000 Wonders ( Atlantic Spain) Tony Clarke - Wrong man (M-S) Willie Tee - First Taste of Hurt (Gatur) Pic & Bill - Talk about love (Soul Record France) Rotations - Put a dime on D-9 (Frantic) The Marquee Review - What good tomorrow (Pacific Avenue) The Enchated Five - Have you ever (CVS) And hopefully some more, if they like it.
