Perhaps he's a cross between Northern & Gansta Rap? NWA were 'Straight Outa Compton' & Leigh's 'Direct From Wigan' (I've already got my coat on!)

Sorry, I'll get the hang of things soon!

Just to let you see what we "missed" at Prestatyn. Masquaders, Masqueraders or Masked Raders (?). Maybe next year?

Nigel Parker bought the original acetate of Tim Brown around the turn of the nineties (when Martin Coppell was selling stuff) for about $650, if I remember right (plus Magnetics @ £2000, Danny Moore @ £750!!). The acetate's 'wax' is very thin and was begining to break up a bit. Nigel would let anyone have a tape of the acetate at first (except me) , but finally let Carl and Spena have an EMI disc. I think Gary then did a few tapes for people who since have cut acetates. Unless Carl has sold it in the last few weeks, he still has the original acetate.

It's on AMM. I can't remeber what it was covered up as, but was being spun around that time. I'm pretty sure it the same as the Millage Kelly St. Claire. I've been meaning to get one for the last 20 years, but suspect when I finally do get around to it, I'll discover how terrible it really is! Value £20 - £50, depending on which way the 'Northern' wind blowing? Or maybe £1000 on an auction near you soon!! :(mint minus & complete with company mailer too :-))

My profuse apologies Jake for any offence caused. There's been enough s*** fying about the forum this evening, without me putting my foot in it too. I guess your a vinyl junkie like me and from your post are very passionate about you sounds and collecting! (apology to Mike too)

Hi I have a question regarding a Tymes single on Parkway: I have a white label demonstration copy of 'the twelfth of never' P933-A because of the B side 'Here she comes' P294-B. However, because it's a bit battered, I picked a stock copy 'twelfth of never' P933-A and 'here she comes' P933B. Now the strange thing is that instead of 'here she comes', it plays "Anymore" which I only thought came out on their two US LPs and a UK release compilation LP. Any ideas as to what is going on? Is it just a mis-press? Did ?Here she comes? come out on P933? And was ''Anymore'' released on a single, at all? Has it?s existence unconfirmed https://www.soulfulkindamusic.net/tymes.htm Has it listed (released?) 1964 Thanks

Here a scan of a copy that was on ebay a few weeks ago as a 'second issue'. My copy is exactly the same and I've always thought it was a boot too. Is this ochre ( I could see any ochre paint down B*Q tonight)?

I have also enjoyed a barrage from him, but persited, and came away with a copy of Daybreak - 'I need love' for £3! (He listed the other side 'Everything man'). I told him about some time later and he said he wasted bothered and had just sold a copy of the Brookes Brothers for a £5 becasue he thought there were "loads about". I wonder if he ever passed his accountacy exams?
