just noticed this comment re Steve Luigi..whilst Steve did have a lot of boots early on, I know for a fact he has tried to steadily replace most of them with original stuff. So while making an attempt to promote a very successful club rebirth which he deserves a lot of credit for, I think it a bit unfair to label him a pressings man...which he maybe was but he now has a cracking US Motown related demo collection and shouldnt be judged so harshly..IMO

maybe better to re-title this thread..'the best collection youve ever seen'. because anybody can quote Tim Brown Manship, Ady or some guy in Holland(not disputing it,mind) etc..we know who probably has the best collections..or biggest... but to actually see something in the flesh(or vinyl) is something else..it can be , to us, awe-inspiring and unforgettable..so its relative and depends on what you think constitutes a great collection..

just for the record..you are spot on Steve..Banksy had the best collection Ive ever seen . Spent days at his house..think of a record..uk demo, uk issue and in most cases US import too.. remember this was 1970 .. so the floodgates hadnt opened import wise yet.. the hours I spent trying to persuade him to part with stuff! 'come on Tony youve got 3 or four different copies of all this Incredibles 45.. no chance....Dont think you will have actually seen it though Steve, a bit before your time and he was very careful who got near it back then..it was legendary around Leeds back then though. I used to sell his 'TB.Super Soul-Jimmy Thomas 45's at the Torch later on..but thats another story..

sean chapman has one on his site

most awkward un-necessary search I ever underwent was one monday teatime in the early 70's as I was walking through Leeds city centre having just left work with my dad who I worked with at the time and several work colleagues . A DS called Derek Balderstone strode acrosss the street waving to me! They had raided Hernies in Leeds on the saturday! Hello, he says what you up to? oh and can I just give you a quick shake-down ? no says I , but he did anyway much to the amazement of said work colleagues least of all my old man and loads of passers-by..! once went into work on a saturday morning to do a bit of o/t after an acid trip..thought it had worn off, but as some will know there is always an extra bit at the end...really weird, spent all 4 hours sat in bog !. dont ever try using an electric cloth knife whilst tripping..!!!

Hi just selling this I think its the vinyl reissue but not sure..may be the earlier boot in excellent condition £40 inc p&p .REMOVED ,

I know..it was a pretty strange experience really. No matter when you went there was always somebody you knew there..yourself, Kegsy, Pat Brady..I remember coming away with a copy of the Triumphs on Verve..took it down the Central that same night and Kim Dent dropped it and broke it! No matter, I'll go and get another on Monday!!!

Currently working in Bradford. I was early yesterday so thought I'd wander round John Street Market and have a nostalgia trip..No matter how hard I tried and wished as I turned the corner...the stall wasnt there anymore!! Thats my faith in all prayers and positive thought principles out the window..I really wished hard as well!

I'm good ta. How are you ? I dont know who wrote it, but someone said at the time there was a chap doing a review..Andy Bellwood messaged me on here to say there was a review in the latest issue., not sure what number.

Hello Ian how ya doing..pm'd you mate.
