Thanks mate, pleased to make your (virtual) acquaintance, yeah some great stuff here, great thread and tbh my first port of call when I come online, love hearing new stuff of this quality!

I was a bit dubious of posting that Shangris track but I just had to, I was prepared to risk being lambasted over it, pleased it went down ok. I'm not an expert on records and have a small collection of what I consider very good stuff, being as the thread rules are that you have to own the record I'm posting here only sporadically as I don't have a collection to rival a lot of the lads here but I think I've got a good ear for what makes a good tune. I love The Beach Boys and The Ronettes, Shangr-Las, all spectors output and tons of other stuff but being honest Northern is the best, just took my daughter into the city and had Shirley Ellis playing, I asked her 'is this the best record you ever heard?' and she replied 'Actually it quite possibly is' Unbeatable!

Cheers Patto, you have some good records mate!

love this Chris, is it hard to find, expensive?

Hi Algis, it's just been reissued on 7" this year, otherwise £100 or so for an original - there's a few on Discogs. Sounds fantastic loud

Bloody hell I join in with a bit of disco (Charles Jackson) to be sociable & leave you lot for a couple of days & there's glitterballs,sequins & glow sticks all over the place when I return :ohmy:The disco bunnies (Chris & Kev) have taken over the world,thankfully Patto has restored some sort of order :thumbup:

Played this out for the first time in ages last week & it sounded brilliant played loud.Also found out from someone at the night that I had the harder label design (same as the one in the vid).Must admit I didn't realise one was harder then the other???

I was getting a tad worried Martyn i thought we were in the PINK OYSTER CLUB Club for a while :ohmy:.But i do admit to enjoying some of the 70s stuff guys im not a totally blinkered 60s Mafia man just 99.9% :lol:.

ANYWAY back to the records ive just been treated to two fantastic records.Martyn that Harry Deal is tearjerking class.Kev The Traits also great real mid nighter Northern.I dont own either but nearly bought a Traits on another label not Pacemaker,was it Garrison.Think the Pacemaker is the one to have.The Harry Deal on that label is a fair price tag Martyn nice one.

Got it from that rather nice chap Mace at a very reasonable price,think I must have caught him at the end of the night when he'd had two sherries instead of his usual one :lol:

Traits is a proper tune & far too good for a disco bunny like Kev I think he should give it to me to look after :wicked:

Cheers

lol you are right Martyn, I don't need much persuading to dust off the old roller boots :lol:

Harry Deal great stuff, used to have the same issue but didn't play it a lot so let it go, wish I'd kept it now :wicked:

Kev your Traits one is superb, new to me

Great stuff Patto, used to love it echoing around Bradford Queens Hall niters. Pitch black hall, blaring brass, off me tree under the balcony :D Top nights. This one and Donna Coleman bring it right back

Has this ever been played on a regular basis anywhere?Had mine ages & you see it listed quite regularly at various prices but can't say I've ever heard it played out myself.Bet it would sound great played a full volume at a big venue.

New sound for me Martyn and like it . Think you are right it would sound great in a big venue Its got that wall of sound factor in the same way that Jerry Ganey--You Dont Love Me   has

Got this Brunswick cut in a soul pack and put it at the back of my box not recognising the name. Didn't even try it for a long time as I was only looking for 100mph northern oldies that I knew at the time. Dug it out recently to see if it was going in my box of for sales and just loved the bass on it. We bass players call the sound 'muted flats' as it's played with old fashioned Flatwound strings with a lump of foam stuffed under them so you get that muted sound with no sustain, also for someone like me who often sits in with Jazz bands where I have no idea of the playlist it hides all the bum notes!

So here it is Erma Franklin on Brunswick, hope you like it!

Me? Can't get enough of 'em!

Hi, great records again! If you check out my profile in the 'about me' section there's (temporarily) a video of me demonstrating the muted flats thing.

Thanks for the support guys.Appologise was prob not the right choise of words as i love the old classics with a passion.What i mean really is the guys that post on this thresd have incredible records and knowledge so i try to post up more underplayed sounds to keep the interest going.Having said that i only put up records that i own and bugger it im proud to own some of these beauts and they took me a long time to get on the orig labels.So one more Big Un From Wigan for you for tonight :thumbsup:
