Gogger Posted Sunday at 13:45 Share Posted Sunday at 13:45 A while back when I started getting interested in rare soul music again , a friend of mine who had never left the scene was telling me about someone who had wired into the sound system and was recording another djs tunes, does anyone know of this and who was involved, or is my memory playing tricks, thanks in advance Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sorry I don’t know the full story, I got the impression he was recording them to use for himself to dj with, I believe he was djing himself and was stealing the tunes , I just wondered who it was , this story was told to me around 10/15 years ago and was a recent event around then I believe, Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Siz Sale Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago I must admit i taped one of Richard Searlings spots when he worked for me and it had all his cover ups at the time (Vicky Baines Cecil Washington ect) on it of a very high quality ,i just used to play it in the car . Tony Just let slip to "Les McCutchen"i had all Richards songs and it was a case of name your price which was substantial as they would told Tony they would just boot them under the cover up name .I flatly refused and got that guilty and paranoid i immediately fessed up and gave the tape back to "Richard" who wasn't impressed i had taped him but was grateful his crown jewels were kept out of "Simon Soussans" hands . This was Early 79 so its not a new thing. 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
