Tony Turner Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Apologies everyone, I have finally gotten around to posting out the rest of my CDs. Please let me know if after a few days time you have not yet received it. I reckon that I'm about 11 down on the swap. Everyone else?
Andybellwood Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) had a message from Ian Dewhirst to say that he's played a few of the swap cd tracks on his radio show and here's a thought ... if any soul-source cd swappers are in the York Area on Sat 17th Oct how about spinning the tracks on vinyl @The Riley Smith Hall warm up event @The Falcon from 3pm .? I 'll be there , expect Kev H will .. just drop Dale a pm and he'll allocate a slot NORTH YORKSHIRE SOUL CLUB @ THE MAGNIFICENT RILEY SMITH HALL. TADCASTER nr YORK, SAT 17th OCTOBER MAIN BALL ROOM (reputedly largest wooden sprung dance floor in England ) & UPSTAIRS RARE SOUL ROOM.

Kris Holmes Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Just a thought, I've been involved in swaps on other boards where people basically ruin these by getting a bunch of free CDs without giving any in return ( the waiting.....). What we do now is rotate each year through a designated organizer. That person receives X amount of the same mix CD from each participant in reusable packaging. The participants each have a specified time limit (say 2 weeks or whatever) to get their lot of CDs posted to the organizer plus a return postage payment (through paypal or whatever). Once the cut off arrives the organizer then compiles a package for each participant (basically returns their packaging to them) with one of everyone else's CDs instead of all the same ones that they sent in originally. This way, only the people who can be bothered getting their CDs in on time benefit. The spare CDs that should have gone to the people who didn't front are then usually offered for set sale on the site by the organizer so they can get a bit of a cut for the inconvenience of organizing it that year or for any profit to be distributed evenly back to the participants to cover some postage . Any other monetary/postage fee inequalities are then evened out afterwards etc & everyone is happy with a pile of CDs to listen to until the next mix swap & no "free CD trolls" are entertained.
Guest DeeJay Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Must hold my hand up I didnt get all the cd's out(But most) If anyone does not remember receiving a cd from me Simply email me at djbywell@safeguardgroup.com and i will mail a cd out. As far as how many i recieved versus mailed, I believe i mailed out more than i recived, although i wasn't keeping track and i don't expect anyone to hold back on purpose. DJ

Should be able to do that easily enough though. Has everybody now received one from me?

Has everybody now received one from me? I haven't got a clue how many I have received or who sent what. But then again I am crap If anyone hasn't received a cd from me please shout up!

DJ Jeez, I have a feeling I didn't send you a cd for the last cd swap. Can you pm your address and I will put that right? You weren't on the list this time though were you? I know I did send a cd to America but I don't recall it being to you.

Great to see you are still around... Did you get a CD from me? Keep in touch mate... Chris.
Chris Anderton Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 Not sure how many Cds i got on this swap but think there were maybe a few guys who did`nt bother for whatever reason...again....why sign up for something you have no intention of joining in with??? Oh Yeah...to get 20 free Cds...silly me! Although i started this swap on here 3 years ago i think this will be my last one. Chris
Tony Turner Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Definitely the most disappointing so far in terms of response! I organised 7 swaps on Soul Talk, usually 15-20 participants, only 4 people failed to keep their part of the bargain.
Guest Ollie Lailey Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Hopefully everyone got mine when i sent 30 odd CDs out back in april! let me know if not and i'll send one out for you. Pretty cheeky that a few people have just not been arsed and sat back and got free CD's. Shame on you!
John Reed Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Not sure how many Cds i got on this swap but think there were maybe a few guys who did`nt bother for whatever reason...again....why sign up for something you have no intention of joining in with???

I organised 7 swaps on Soul Talk, usually 15-20 participants, only 4 people failed to keep their part of the bargain. I think it's a real shame, the concept of the CD swap is fantastic, better than tape swaps in the 80's. Being a participant of these swaps has given me an insight into tunes that I would have otherwise passed by. It's sad, as support dwindles due to people not playing ball potentially could mean the SS CD may no longer exist. I suppose on the other side, they've started up on EMS.

John Reed Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) Andy, I previously replied and have changed my response, have you received my CD? Cheers, John Edited August 21, 2009 by John Reed
pikeys dog Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Last shout from me to anyone who has not received a CD from me to let me know. Cheers TT Tony, not sure if I have had one... I'm definately still shy of a few and it's taken that long to complete the swap they've been spread to the four winds...
ajb Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 not sure on the exact return ratio on this one myself, without checking. although numbers maybe down, slightly, the quality as been excellent. so a big thank you, and pats on the back, to those that have sent out. personally i'm not bothered with the whole name and shame thing, as their may be a valid reason for them not being able to commit. and those that were just plain lazy, or couldn't be bothered won't be able to join in future swaps. i was hoping to have another swap around the end of sept for those interested, the theme will be.............. "CROSSOVER, SEVENTIES AND EIGHTIES GEMS" those interested let me know, so i can see if its worth doing another swap. those involved in the EMS swap could send them out together, save on postage. all the best alan
Tony Turner Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Out of interest is the EMS swap a 70's/80's type thing or up-to-date modern? And does anyone why the forum notes appear to be in Spanish?
ajb Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 Out of interest is the EMS swap a 70's/80's type thing or up-to-date modern? And does anyone why the forum notes appear to be in Spanish? its a bit of a mix tony, i would say 70's to the present, and all in between. lets just say its a bit more open minded, in a nice way. theres a few that did both swaps last time, and few regulars on here have signed up. closing date for signing up is sunday, and i have three places left. but i'd like to run the SS swap with the said theme, as people have asked for it, and judging by some of this swaps tracks it should be up quite a few peoples street. good job i know a bit of spanish LOL

Tony Turner Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Tony wots the EMS Url Address please. Graham. I don't know mate. And Alan I'll do another SS swap.
Jumpinjoan Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 "CROSSOVER, SEVENTIES AND EIGHTIES GEMS" That's me out then As for CD's, I sent 30 odd last time to everyone on the list apart from DJ Bywell because he wasn't on my list. (send me your address DJ and I will send you one asap). This time I sent 32/33 was it? With one going to America and one somewhere else. I can't remember getting one from America this time round. Or anywhere else outside the UK for that matter I take it everyone received one from me? Wouldn't want to be known as someone who has 'took but hasn't given'

Tony Turner Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Got yours thanks Joan. I've now checked and I know who is 'naughty and nice' but I don't think that I'll name and shame, just keep the disappointment to myself
Guest Ollie Lailey Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 will have a count and see what's what. Did get 2 CDs from our international friends. As someone mentioned the overall standard and in most cases the presentation was really really good. Just a shame some folk don't play fair!
richardf Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Hi, Apologies to all I must admit when I got the first few through I panicked, as I didn't think I'd be up to the quality. I've been putting it off every weekend but will get one done tomorrow. It may be a bit disco for some but we'll see. It's quite stressfull actually. Again sorry but I haven't meant to blag without giving. Should be in the post by next weekend Richard

Richard, Pull yourself together you big wuss! Thats the beauty of a CD swap, everyone does a CD of stuff they like/believe in/just discovered and shares it around...If somebody does`nt like your Cd there will be someone else who loves it! The only thing thats gonna piss anybody off is not doing a CD at all. Now...get that CD in the post and lets all see what you got! Chris.
Wrongcrowd Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Thanks for the CD's received so far............some great tunes added to the ever growing wants list I've been having a few technical problems.....no honest I have..... Kept getting errors through iTunes, and getting only one CD completed for every five attempted. I've reverted to Nero now, and so far so good, so aim to have all CDs sent out next week
Jumpinjoan Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Thanks for the CD's received so far............some great tunes added to the ever growing wants list Did you get a CD from me Cliff? Not that I think you particularly want one. Just that I don't remember you being on my list.
richardf Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Right After much headscratching and soulsearching it's done (in fact I had so much fun doing it I've got the next one ready too) Apologies to all for the delay but I've been off the northern scene for nearly 20 years and it's been a bit daunting. It may not be to everyones taste but it has all the stuff I currently like on it. I will be away for the weekend so will burn and post beginning of next week. Once again I am sorry for the delay (beginners nerves) All the best Richard
Chris Anderton Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Rich, Look forward to recieving the CD mate, there is something of interest on every CD so dont beat yorself up just yet! Chris
