Welcome back 

I've snorkeled enough off Bohol, Wakatobi and Bonaire 

I have found the Louis Paul very interesting for several years, but never thought I could have bought it for 500.
I'll give you one: bargain

[Russoul1]

Louis paul was a nice new year bargain.

Can't see the tropics end result?

[Lionelonthevinyl]

A big thank you to Woody and Zanny for taking the time to post this up every week (I think others have helped to) I thank you all!!! And.....I very nearly had a pop at the Louis Paul, I love it!!! But as I don't really collect now I'm unsure of prices.....was this fairly good value at £514?? Thank you....Rob

I always find John Manship's descriptions of the records and their history make fascinating reading, and the combination of final prices and when the auction took place strike me as lining up a series of books he could put out.

Already written, just waiting to be compiled along with the scans of the records.

Yes but it's Johnny Manships perspective of history.

I went to hundreds of allnighters/soul nights and John Manship was not there.

He probably went to hundreds of events I didn't go to. So we will have a different view of how it was! 

I suppose any book is the authors perspective on how it was to them. A lot of interesting things left out that should be mentioned etc.  That's why I have given up on buying books about the Northern Soul scene.

My memories and any authors are often too different.

Spot on. I do enjoy reading his observations even though on occasions they differ vastly from my view for the very reason you have outlined.

Yes of course, very much his perspective, and as Solidsoul says, the same is true of the books already out there and no doubt those yet to come too. I'm fine with that, still enjoy reading them, and I do find the way Manship writes engaging.

[Chalky]

I do like to read others perspective of their time on the scene.  It can join a lot of dots from the times you/we missed if you like the history of the scene.

I first started going to nighters properly in late 76 so i have gone through several eras of the scene.There is hardly a day goes by that wigan is not being talked about and yet in my opionion stafford dose not get any where near the recognition it deserves,this nighter brought a new genre of soul music of ballads and beat ballads to the scene,many coming from the belgian popcorn scene.Without stafford i think many of the slower songs that have now become classics would not have seen the light of day.

[Davebanks]

Started my NS journey in 1969, built up a sizeable collection then sold it all up. To JM as it happens! Still collecting tracks but now in digital format.  

But for me the biggest change has been the internet. Any song is just a click away. A far cry from travelling the length of the country to hear a track just once. I enjoy JMs descriptions and usually there is a track new to me or a "b" side I  forgot.

 It's all part of spreading the faith.

Even after Stafford the scene continued to evolve.  Labels like tuska, the more gritty funky southern soul etc that maybe didn’t break through previously.

 

the whole explosion of low rider sounds which was probably down to CD swaps and the use of the internet.

Fully agree on the internet having a huge impact.
