SHEFFSOUL

also on the Hi LP..and a rare South African 1960's 45 (probably the rarest format)

wow ..what a list!!..I wonder if the Sherry's ended up with Russ W..also wondering if many of these listed SS actually discovered? no doubt some were already big tunes..great stuff..how did SS circulate these lists?

agree..i have it also..but never heard it out..

not so sure they were all legit...i bought a copy of the Jades via his postal address in Daly City..supposedly original, $35 on REE..which i sent him via an international money order,he also listed Danny Monday also a boot i believe, plus others of the time..probably just before Ian D went to the US as he put me onto him...

whilst your comments are very true..SS did not invent or start the bootlegging of records on the northern soul scene.And though i agree with your sentiments ( thief) he certainly was not isolated during this prolific period.In fact i would challenge anyone to name a person of note or influence on the scene who did not in some way contribute to the deception and therefore cheating those entitled to royalties or similar.This is in no way a defence of SS, i guess he was the most prolific but he couldn't have done it alone.With the gift of hindsight i find it a fascinating part of the history of northern soul....( an exception being Dave Godin)

I'm surprised SS appeared to get away with unofficially pressing so many titles. Surely in some cases the technicians at Monarch would have been suspicious, would he supply the actual disc to be copied or a tape of said disc..wonder what line he used to spin? Illegal but completely fascinating...has anyone dared to suggest a list of which songs he was involved with?

I'll tell you hat is annoying, Lisa Tarbuck...nuff said

pmd you..

would love to know the full story/technical aspect...i assume SS had some access to the original recordings in order to remove/separate vocals..i also think strings were added? by whom? same as his Mirwood additions?..and where is SS now?...if he did have access to the original tapes..might explain why it never was booted like his other stuff, VM was a big name and SS probably decided against further exploitation..

HA Ha...nice one..i honestly dont think mine are rare...but will dig em out later...

i can remember this track first coming to my attention sometime in the early 80's on an Ace (i think) compilation LP, probably before it was played on the northern scene?..however as such it stands to reason it was ripe for reissue..and imo the 45 in question looks like a reissue..

curious to know what rare/rarest northern soul has been pressed on coloured vinyl? i only have a few Bobby Patterson, Bobby Taylor, my rarest is prob Pat Powdrill 'Together forever' WLP/red vinyl...whats yours inc pics please...

having tried a foam based cleaner which worked well i'm looking to try the liquid version, anyone care to recommend a brand and supplier..thanks in advance..

Little joe Romans - When your Lonesome- i thought was Cats pre Wigan Mel Williams - Can it be me- pre Wigan? Dalton boys- Ive been cheated.

has anyone heard the CW version and can comment on it?

i never fully understood the Salvation story...i always thought the Rita Lee/men from macon were later issues to cater for the northern soul market...

this is Charay 90 A side...

anyone have a sound clip, label scan or any further info?

listening to a podcast by Kev roberts where he mentions beach 106..a radio station that features northern soul and a guy called John Huff/hough?..anyone know bit more abpout this? I'm visiting NC soon and trying to find places to visit re dance places, clubs etc..thanks in advance...
