EDWIN STARR - I`LL NEVER FORGET YOU - GRANITE [canadian only release, nice crossover 45] M- £15 Are you sure its Canadian only, the copies I have all have a Hollywood address on the label. kegsy

pm'd you kegsy

Was the Rowntrees Sound actually a club, did it do northern nights.? I seem to remember it as more a pub/bar that we used when passing through Manchester en route to somewhere else. This was mainly because it was near Ralphs and Victoria station. Kegsy

Not too sure whether Bang Bang is a respected soul label as the only soul release I've heard is William Cummings. However a guy called Lance Hill does a version on Bang Bang and its a truly awful Country & Western rendition. Kegsy

Have you replied to anybody on your last want ?. Time demo. kegsy

PM'd you on Pearlean Gray

Funny innit everybody and his dog have had a go on this thread except the guy who wants the record. He aint replied to my PM either. Kegsy

Just thinking the same myself, wtf am I doing measuring deadwax etc on a Monday morning. I have e-mailed ovenchips to see if he can shed any light. Kegsy

Yes it does have the V not an A. Kegsy

Yes mine is exactly the same although what Sebastian has said about the matrix has confused me again. Whats the matrix on yours. Kegsy

confused again now, as the deadwax on mine is 11mm and the same matrix as above. Difficult to tell if its three or four turn deadwax as the last 2 are very close together. Why would the two varients one/two line title have the same runout/deadwax characteristics since they would obviously be pressed at different plants ?. Is the four turn deadwad the two line title ? Whats the runout like on the white demo ? Whats the runout like on the original one line title ?. Whats the runout like on the original two line title ? Kegsy

Thanks for that I am now convinced mine is an original as it has none of the label bubbling or whatever it is and is the same as the one line title copy on the thread. Kegsy

But does it have a one or two line song title. Kegsy

Trouble is there are other Audio Arts releases that were never booted that use a slightly darker green too. Is there an original with the one line title and darker green label ?. If not why doesn't Manship just say all single line title ones are boots ?. Kegsy

Mine does not have any of that gubbins 98% of the label is perfect and flat except for a very small patch between the prominent ring and the centre hole.

Are you 100% sure about this. I have just checked several other Audio Arts records inc. duplicates of the same title and the window is not in the same place on any of them. Sometimes left or right and higher/lower in relation to the centre hole.

There's even more confusion now as the pale one has a prominent ring around the centre hole on the original. Mine has the ring. The boot pictured does not have evidence of this ring. Manship mentions the prominent ring on the original and lack of it on the boot. Kegsy

Do you mean all over the label as it looks smooth to me, are rough patches immediately obvious ?. If I look very closely around the centres hole there are a couple of very small patches but they are hardly obvious unless looking really closely for them. Kegsy

Incredibles There's Nothing Else To Say Audio Arts Green label. Just been given cause to question whether the copy I have is a boot. The song title is on one line, whereas other copies have the title across two lines in larger type. Is the format of the song title a definite reason for it to be a boot or not. If I look in John's book I would assume its a boot. There are no matrix marks listed in John's book for the green original. However I bought it in the States donkeys yonks ago and it has a drill/BB hole in the label. If its a boot its the first boot I've ever seen with a drill/BB hole. Anyone ever seen a boot with BB hole ? Just to confuse a little bit more the Blue label copy which was not booted has the title on one line not across 2. Are there East/West coast varients or any of the usual pressing plant issues that cause differences in releases. What do you people think ? Kegsy

Whether Dave Godin actually invented the phrase we will never know, as he may have heard the phrase "northern soul scene" meaning the soul scene in the north as opposed to London etc. He could have heard it on his trip(s) to the Wheel or in his shop who knows ? However I think when he actually coined the phrase in Blues & Soul he actually named the musical genre "Northern Soul" which people had not called it before. Pete S is right its a matter of context. Kegsy

I have a Maroon promo with Time on both sides. Why would anyone want the promo without Running Back etc. Kegsy

Has the white DJ copy got Time on both sides ? kegsy

The demo I have has Time on both sides. Have advised. Kegsy
