Royal Robins On Tru-glo-town
Don't know why this particular single is rare, everything else on the label seems to be around in quantity. But I do know it got rarer after John Weston bought a copy !!!!!!

Nice
I've got one of these in my sales box for £20. It's an Inferno single - Dobie Gray - Out On The Floor / Cindy Soul - Nine Times Out Of Ten / Fury's Band - I'm Satisfied With You (Inst)

Demise Of The Traditional Record Shop
Couldn't agree more Ken. Last time I called in there were already two other Soulies there, and another turned up whilst we were chatting. Max made everyone a coffee, and then we all stood outside for a smoke and a chat. You don't get that sort of service in any other type of shop.

Blackpool Motown/soul Night Feeback Required
I think you may need to reconsider your pricing. Soul fans are a notoriously tight fisted lot, and probably wouldn't consider paying anywhere near £15 to listen to a band they don't know.

The Hypocrisy Of Northern Soul?
I agree with most of what you say, but the converse side of it is, without the Northern scene, none of the artists would have benefitted anyway from the reissues and live performances that they have benefitted from over the last twenty years. Certainly I have seen many more live acts because of the Northern scene than I would have if it didn't exist, so those artists all benefitted. I've bought hundreds of CDs, so the artists benefitted from those (assuming the company paid what was owed, and assuming of course that the artists actually still own any of the track, bearing in mind that many of the records that were made were sold at the time as one offs to less than reputable record company owners) So, whilst I happily pay lots of money for a single which doesn't benefit the artist at all, I also like to think that without people like me, a lot of artists would be unrecognised and unknown. I know that the artists I've spoken to are a lot more impressed with the recognition they receive now, in this country, than the cash they received when their records were made !

Check Out This Site
When you say you 'own' all the tunes on the site is that what you really mean ? Or do you mean you 'own' the records ? I couldn't say for sure, but I think Neil Rushton might wish to challenge you on the Driza Bone tune ownership.

Has Anyone Seen Paul Weller Or Marc Almond At A Soul Event?
Who's Paul Weller ? Should I have heard of him

Too Many Events Clashing
Which weekenders are down on numbers ? Hamburg was rammed in October, Nuremburg was the busiest I've ever been to last weekend, Cleethorpes sells out every year, and Prestatyn gets 3,500 people. I wouldn't disagree with you about niters and soul nights being down on numbers, but you must be going to the wrong weekenders

Should All Uk Weekenders Re-locate To Europe
Oh I agree Dave, I'm not knocking it at all, if you include Dublin and Belfast (and I'm going to because there is a lot of water between here and there and no bridge ), Nuremberg will be my seventh trip abroad this year to listen (and play) Soul music.
-
Should All Uk Weekenders Re-locate To Europe
They'll have smoking bans over there next year. So your last chance to attend a weekender and smoke will be Nuremberg in 8 days time.
