  1. This autoplayed on utube Sounds like them, the DC Sound and all that - post Shrine apparently.
  2. The other Jez will most probably Jez Wensor
  3. According to Kent write up - "they were a trio of high-school girls from Baltimore who were probably sisters and one was called Dolores" Pic R to L ?Delores ? Delores, Heysette & Beverly ( H&B definitely sisters)
  4. That's right Andy, it was on the Sunday nights, Mel would have been at Cleethorpes etc on the Saturdays. I think she went with a lass called Spike.
  5. I remember going in there in the very early 8o's. It was sort of behind the Pied Calf and about 4 foot square. My sister used to go there in the mid 70's, sometimes and they played Northern Soul and Motown, maybe before the bus left for St. Ives? I seem to remember the Wirrina and Fleet having niters on the same night. Early on I think there were both the Pheonix Club, Carousel Club, Wirrina stadium (roller skating), someone on here I'm sure can clarify. The Cresset to??
  6. Thirty years ago I was given a lift from Chicago to Detroit by a Detroit born record collector. Looking at some records I had bought, he informed me the TF was a big hit locally because high school lads had bought the record to give to their sweethearts; maybe why you can’t good copies of it – played to death or chucked in the trash!
  7. To make a ‘record’ you need a length of substance, stable at room temp, to have a groove that will be made (V) to make a needle / stylus wobble from side to side horizontality in such a fashion to generate the music. For practical, space reasons, it is laid out in a cylindrical format such as a wax cylinder or snail-shell platter format e.g. 45 / LP, shellac , vinyl JTS’s acetates and such, are a metal platter covered with cellulose acetate. Carvers are a platter of polyvinyl chloride type plastic. A groove is cut into them by a ‘lathe’ which the needle/stylus can follow and then can pick up the sound from.
  8. £4.50p to be precise. He wanted a quid for each, but I only went to 50p for the white one due the writing on the label.
  9. Dena (posted in Dena thread too)
  10. Here is Crying
  11. They are scans of photocopies of the originals. I seem to remember they were well 'yellowed' from age. Most probably at least two copies as they are legal contracts, one copy for each party?
  12. Can't find Dena, just deleted Crying!
  13. There's that and song sheets for LIG, crying over you & Dena Barnes. I think Andy Rix & Ted Massey have (photo) copies
  14. That made me smile. A paraphrase of that was jokingly said to me by this wise chap about this lot Stafford TOTW 35 or so years ago!
  15. Searching ebay.uk last night for some parts for a lap - Samsung RF511, but missed the 5 out. Number of warrington supporters with a Samsung phone who are into Northern = ?
  16. You have to go via the site now as they seem to have stopped supporting the add on, i think
  17. https://www.mixcloud-downloader.com copy & paste in the URL from mixcloud
  18. You are right. Can't find one for sale, so cant help with value. Hot Tracks Moments – Series 2 Issue 3: “I Just Want This Feeling To Last” by Marlena Shaw (1983) Hot Tracks Records 1983 Produced by Karvin Johnson Marlena Shaw left a huge hit behind during the disco era with her fabulous cover of Diana Ross’ “Touch Me In The Morning” – throughout the early 80s dance floors continued to get a taste of this marvelous talent. Her 1982 album “Let Me In Your Life” contained the single “I Just Want This Feeling To Last” which was also featured on a Hot Tracks Issue with an edit by Greg Silva
  19. I can't remember ever seeing it on 12" unless it was 'reissued' / remixed. A 12" is as cumbersome as a LP, but easier to cue than a track 4? Now DT did play a 12" of Jesse Henderson - I did it again that lasted longer than a bottle of Durophet. I think his was House of Hits, not Lasso
  20. Do you want me to delete it Carl? Did you get it off Nigel? Did he get his from Pat Brady? Have you got that 'Moods' Bell Sound acetate
  21. I don't know exactly what colour you would describe it as. Some googled scans are paler, some nearly orange. This is the only 'promo' I've seen.
  22. DON G CHEATING PREST.wmv
