There's two 're-issues' of TOD. One is on the blue and white Turbo label, which I think was the legit re-release and therefore decent quality pressing. There's also an earlier bootleg on a white label with black print ( I think I've got one somewhere, if I can find it I'll let you know)

A good way to mend them is to get a old fashioned razor blade and glue it to the other side with some of the 'airfix' type glue that 'melts' the vinyl a bit and does need much applying - no big bump and they lie flat on the turntable. I've got two spare mint records that have cracks, but it doesn't effect their play Otis Clay - the only way is up - Echoe Charles Russel - it ain't easy - Psyche Makes me wonder if they're work fixing as I don't know what I'd get for them, any ideas?

Look under the icon to play the sound file - the record with a blue arrow on it and you see an icon to add files to your play list - it looks like a little yellow arrow pointing at three yellow line You can use the search facility to find the track you want to add, if it's already in the 'refosoul' sounds library The method to remove clips from your play list can be found here: /index.php?showtopic=44107

The word crossover to describle a type of music was originally coined in the 60's to describe the type of 'race' music ( i.e. black / R&B / soul music) that had become acceptable to the white market. For example, Motown tunes being played on white radio stations. I first saw the word used on lists about 25 years ago to describe records from around 1969 - 1973 that were between the uptempo motown - type of the 60's and the emerging 'disco' sounds of the 70's. I've never really took much notice of them as they seemed to slow and wishy-washy for the time. Nowadays it's probably used to describe the tunes that us old folks can just about jig about to for 3 minutes without fear of a coronary!

Do people actually still travel and attend certain venues because certain DJs are on? If so, find out who they are and book them. I'd go for DJs than can play a mixture of eras and styles for hour spots. Plus maybe some that are more specific in their plays, but only let them have two 30 minute spots (stop the moaners kicking off?) All the DJs should be there for the duration to stop repeat plays - they go on in ascending order of their alcohol tolerance. Have a request sheet on the door for the DJs to peruse before they go on and hopefully oblige in their spot. Also, might stop DJs playing some cack that just want to hear and getting away with it by saying 'request' before they play it.

I suppose you'd want them back at the prices I paid you for them? OK my 20 minute spot would be Ben Jackson, Ujima, Lust and the Power of Attorney Band! Would that temp you back from your lav break?

20 minutes, it takes me longer than that to get my CD player and laptop up and running! Then I'd play Ben Jackson four times in a row just to P you off!

The original is very rare, might even be a one off. It's label is blue. Poke first played it covered up as Tony Raymonds, then sold it Robin Salter who uncovered it. Robin lent it to the label owner to press up the yellow copies as he didn't have the original tapes. The yellow ones, I think should be considered as legit re-issues.

That explains why my mp3's named Carl Carlton, but I don't think it's him.

Thanks Jon

Found this on my PC and can't remember where it's come from or what it is, any ideas?

It's by Cheyenne STILL THE KINDA MAN / DOES IT FEEL GOOD on CNR records from 1981.

Simon M is the man for taking up this challenge 80's wise, he's got disks that are far rarer than stuff considered 'rare' or 'northern' in the above post; and I think there one or two Japanese collectors who even Simon would admit would give him a run for his money!

The trouble with a lot of eighties records is that people don't really like the drum machine beat on a lot of them. And how many of them are ruined by that awful rock guitar solo two third of the way throught them (though even taking that out, King Moses is crap IMO)

1981, same year and label as the Controllers version of 'gamble on your love and lost', a great cover of Ray Goodman & Brown (the Moments) track.

Why don't you buy it on Hense Forth ? I bet it's quite rare on Highland.

Are we talking about Doctor of Love / Let Me Tell You What I Want? If so, Keb was responsible

That was a lie Steve, we're both actually called Brian and live next door to you; it's all part of a ploy to steal your identity so we can go down the post office and sign for all those 7" square packages that you get each day! :-)
