Thinking of 'decent nick' for ska etc me and my mates have something we call 'Jamaican mint' which is basically Fu****d minus

anyone got the dates for this year's Cleethorpes?

I heard some sad news last night. Juggy Murray owner of the Sue label died a couple of weeks ago.

It's show yer age time folks - the Savage by the Shadows. I've still got it and its still in VG+++ after all these years. Tony

I love the Grapevine 2000 stuff, but have resisted buying too many as I reckon £10 for these reissues is a bit over the top. What do you people think?

The Torch was something special, especially to us Southerners making our first tentative steps on the Northern Scene. For us and I expect many others it was also special because the scene was still very much in its infancy, we were all there for one thing, some good gear and to hear some fantastic records. I also like to think that there was no politics and backbiting in those days, but I suspect some people disliked Levine even then!

I think I've got a copy, I'll check tonight Tony

Great track, but nothing compares to Stumble and Fall, it's magnificent!!! the b side, Quiet Guy, is also F.A.B.

Saw Len Jewell in Kojak once. And Delores Hall is in some daytime detective tosh that plays now and again.

Don't knock Out on the Floor, when I was much much younger and the record was new to the scene, it summed what it was all about. i wouldn't play it out now but it still holds some great memories Tony

Don't remember anything like that, maybe it was all too new then...

How about The Grasshopper by Doris Duke? A great soul singer reduced to singing tosh! There was something about the name "Contempo" that didn't inspire confidence, even though they put out a few good records. Check out Ted Taylor's I wanna be part of you. Its magic!
-
Agree with this, Billy Joe Young is a great record. I'm sure they played it at the Mecca as well.

I've seen a Topless Tony go for much more than its book price. But its not worth as much as a Bottomless Clarkie.

Yeah Mac used to dj there. Didn't he used to dj with The Cheltenham Hippo?

Good to see a mention of Yate, it was always a good laugh and is fondly remembered by the the people who went there. Adey I've got some good photos if you need them. Tony Ellis

saw Hot Chocolate at Southampton in the 70s supporting Harold Melvin, they were excellent.

What about Jay Walking - the red label logo looks like it was taken from a third generation photocopy. Although it does have a certain primitive charm! (says our art correspondent)
