Womack acetate is a collectors piece, I've only played it out twice since we bought it ...

As for cutting you a copy... sorry, I don't have the rights, but I have been in discussion with those who do so, who knows, we might see him on TV with another hit on his hands later in the year...

... but I doubt it! :D

:)

Sean

That's a bit of an understatement isn't it Sean - only 'Twice'? :g:

I'm sure a few people will have heard you play it more than that... unless you've bootlegged it and playing a carver of it or summat! :(:yes:

Mind you, you wouldn't do that would you? You just said you "don't have the rights" :lol::D

(Ha Ha!)

Yep... also played it off CDR two or maybe three times, John.

Them old acetates don't last five minutes... and I promised my co-investor I'd look after it. :lol:

Might be giving it a spin at Modernism next Friday though.

Don't think Martin would have me back again if i didn't. :lol:

:huh:

So let me get this right Tats......

You go 50/50 on buying an expensive record, but you haven't seen it in over a year since, and aren't even allowed a copy of said record? ohmy.gif

Is it an investment or something? Isn't there some sort of sharing (i.e. you have it Jan-June) that could be arranged here? From where I am standing it's sounding like you are funding Sean's "excloosivs" collection :P

Oooh! Bitch Bitch! :lol:

Don't be like that...

...just cos you missed it, Steve :thumbup:

What you probably don't know is... we'd both seen it and were both gonna bid for it seperately, but when it became apparant that we'd both bid to eternity for said magnificent and highly desirable item we realised that we'd end up paying well over the odds.

So, we took the sensible and pragmatic view and agreed that I would bid... and that I'd let Tats buy a half share in it, purely as an investment...

...however, we didn't agree at the time that he would have 'play' rights...cos if you'd seen his box you'd know it could soon get very messy and this little investment 'one-off' could soon become a total 'none-off' :lol:

You'll be pleased to hear though (as you're obviously so concerned shades.gif ) that we will have joint access to the Womack (and various other exclusives - under my strict supervision) at the launch of our new event - Just Soul - Coming Soon!

Might even play it especially for you!

:D

OK OK man, no need to be so defensive of your position on this record Sean - only digging you out m8. Obviously struck a raw nerve though!!! :lol: :lol: wink.gif

I feel a drink fest coming on at Yarmouth (if you are still talking to me by then).....always worth remembering though I can dish out as good as I get :Dwink.gif

Just out of interest, is it "Runaway" that you're talking about? unsure.gif

I only have the short 1:20 clip that was in the auction (which I guess a lot of other people have as well) but if anyone would like to hear it I could put it in refosoul? Let me know.

If it's not that tune, then just ignore this... :thumbup:

Hi Sean

Interesting news about the new venue. Should be quality.

Regarding "Runaway": where would I have heard that before? When the record was auctioned I played the soundclip and instantly remembered the song, if not that mix of it. Was it on the Chris Wells tape of out-takes from The Poet and Poet II sessions? I have a dim memory of some of these making it onto a radio show in the 80s: could have been Robbie Vincent on Radio 1 or Bob Jones on one of the pirates he used to deejay on. Anyone else have a similar memory of that particular track?

Don't know about that Gareth.

It was from the Poet sessions, for sure.

Nice tune too!

JB xxx

Hi JB you heard me play it at Broadlane a few years ago the first time I played it there our good buddy Harpo told me it is one of his top 5 alltime records superb tune so each time he gets along to BL it hits the decks for him.

Anyone interested in 50% share of a fabulous one off Womack acetate. unplayed (by me). Sean, I would never have bought in on purely investment terms !...but gladly accept that you are less likely to get it covered in Brown sauce.
