I have a set of mini fanzines that Dave produced maybe late 80s or early 90s, he was always interesting to talk to, he would review records I had in my collection when I sent him tapes, using the reviews for his mag. Like other individually created fanzines Daves were a source of information I struggled to find before I really had access to the web, so, appreciating Dave may have been a bit of a character on the scene he was for me a decent bloke, who was stereotypical of the vastly knowledgeable soulies on the scene, sadly some I have encountered disappear for a time, but in Daves case I heard he'd passed away.

SORTED! thank you

There was a plot though, to use the comparison with the one that isn't fit to share the same space to convert more of my untamed mates to the real soul side! Appreciate your best wishes, have a great weekend.

I am trying to put together a playlist for my 50th tomorrow, wanted to back to back Pharrell Williams Happy with Velvet Hammer's Happy, can anyone help with a clear mp3 of the Velvet Hammer version? Youtube sound quality not great and no on ITunes for sale. Would very much appreciate any help, Cheers, Lee PS e-mail address available if needed.

When I had the LP I thought I would do a bit of background reading based on sleeve notes, uncovered that the album was compiled by a number of local artists to raise bail money, think she was an over active activist! Some great tunes on the album and probably 75-100.

I was let down by this seller when he first listed it, 1399 was a steal as the only bidder, he then told me ebay had made a mistake, and he wasn't selling as he wanted 2000 or over! His mistake really, he relisted, made his new reserve of 1899 and was then apparently let down by a UK buyer who he slated in the first edition of the new listing, this is the 3rd time he's listed it, this time it had a BIN. Other than that still a rare 45.
