The Tempest

FOR RARITY !!!!!!!!!!! The Combinations - What Cha Gonna Do Need 5 pints of stella to limber up !

Searching for a mate who moved down to that area mid 80's, great memories of Morecambe / Blackburn nighters in their day , scottish guy , two sisters called Anne and Lesley , last heard he was working in food distribution Chorley area , late 80's , early 90's ,

That was for the 1st Anniversary !!! Kept mines in pristine condition since that night and sold it last year , won't mention price , BUT One born every minute !!

That'll be the Erma Franklin version then ,

The Trends - Not Too Old To Cry Kleenex Tissues

Guys , I can do one better ! I recently found a usa dealer who advertises top quality vinyl but refuses to export it and only sells to usa / canadian customers !! His opinion when e - mailed was that we had been " raping " ( his quote ) , the states of precious vinyl for years and now he had Manships guide book , the records were staying in their country of birth ! Only in america !!!!!!

Picked up the Moment of Truths solo album on salsoul yesterday for a couple of quid, had only heard " So Much For Love " played out at a few do's here and there , but basically bought the album blind .Apparently it was their only album before splitting up . It's a cracker with some quality 70's soul tracks on it , highly recommended people , just buy it !! Is anybody playing any of their other stuff in their sets ,

Am now sorted !!

Go to Anorak Records website , once in site , go to picture sleeves , nice pic of the sleeve depicting the Capitol Tower Records Company , Great oldie

Beres Hammond - Do This World A Favour Taken me three months to find the album and what a tune !

Picked up the " Blue Autumn " album today , £2.00 , charity shop , Us press , bargain , BUT , Although I got a bargain I'm more interested in the albums history , the original people who bought it / put it there , why get rid of it , etc ... Yes I know it's weird but I'm not the only one !!

Anybody !!!!!!!!!!!

Pete, Sort that Stafford CD out !!!

Richard Berry - Have Love Will Travel - Earliest tune I thought of and still a great dancer

In a galaxy far far away , ( early 60's ) ,young men danced and flocked to certain record dealers all over the uk , if they were on an away day with the footie , trying to find an elusive record shop / stall in some backstreet market whilst they're mates gave them " 10 mins " as the beers flowed before the game THEN they were on holiday again , Devon / Cornwall trying to find them in far flung reaches of this kingdom !!! I want to be helpful , but for god's sake GOOGLE what ya got !!!! You will find a wealth of information on the catalogue , dancers , rareities , etc..... Is It Me !!!! ? ps . Whats the best way of burying an entire football team alive , the italians do it very well !

Original Album wanted NM / EX Con Thanks,

Fantastic pic , amazing group , and finally we all get to see who delivered those brilliant tracks , nice one ,

PM'D YA !

Just seen it , great record , crap advert !

Ladies / Gents We've all been there at a nighter , eyes like pee holes in the snow , early morning , waiting for the the dj you've travelled billions of miles for, to play his set , BUT , I actually looked forward to this , regardless if it was a 4 - 5 am stint , So intros wise for the big hitters ,now or yesterday lets hear them , Dave Thorley -Philly Dog Around The World Colin Law - Allen Sisters - I'm in with the Downtown Crowd Whats your memories of they're opening numbers for their spots ,

Hats off to you mate for a good honest thread , My gran was a massive Sinatra fan , when I was growing up , early 70's , Tenderness was her favourite track , I always loved the lyrics but always thought it needed more oomph !!! Cue hearing Otis's version at 10 yrs and my destiny of life was doomed from then on !!!!!!!!

Yes but beware of Sadie , the diva of drag !!!!!!
