Paul R

Don't you get the feeling that he is just taking the p*ss out of us lot. Some kind of act of defiance maybe? Paul

Oops!, that'll teach me for not reading the full title of the thread. Didn't see the second bit. Paul

I Struck It Rich-Len Barry Irrestistible You-Bobby Darin I Got It From Heaven-Brighouse & Rasterick Brass Band Paul

Which Billy Harner Track? Paul

Thought I'd post this one up. Paul

One of the first of the legends that I got into as a boy. Gone but not forgotten. RIP Paul

Just taking it back to March 1973, I got a Tenner to spend for my 15th birthday. Train from Burscough to Preston, into the record shop on Preston bus station and bought amongst others Reissues/pressings of Right track on Okeh(both the vocal & instru on identical records I believe). The Charge TKOs. But also 2 brand new releases "Love Train" the O'Jays On CBS and Timmy Thomas "Why Can't We Live Together". Probably the lst time I bought a new recording. (In those days I liked both types of music, Northern and Soul) Just though I'd mention it Paul

From what I remember , Little Lee Howell was Marc Copage, as mentioned previously Eddie Foster I am a Painter was the Black Abbotts, Casino Brothers was Casanova Two, we all know Freddie & Estella and Johnny Jackson, and the End of the World is Sidras theme. Anyone know any of the rest? If they ever existed. Paul

"Run Run Baby" The Marshall Brothers or something similar,springs to mind from early Wigan. Paul

I must mention the kettle drums at the beginning of Skiing In The Snow, you would be on the dance floor before the first note on the sax. Awsome. IMHO Paul

You do know that when you down load it to Roxio audiocentral it says "Brenton Wood-Two Time Looser"? is this some type of clue, because I've never heard it before and I quite like it. C'mon what is it? Paul

I have heard of this version, but that is the first time i've heard it. It is feckin' brilliant. Do you think the Spyder knew that there would be anoraks like us that would be into Him, Chuck, Billy, Jackie, Smokey?. Great record from a real genius. IMHO Generally though I don't like spiders. Paul

Ain't that the problem nowadays, everyone is only interested in Prophets! Paul

The Power Of Brass " Crazy Horse". Abysmal. But hey!, I feckin' bought it Paul

That's a coincidence, I've just changed my avatar to "The Multi Sound Organ Of Andre Brasseur". Everyone is getting a good feel of my record collection by now . Paul

I Don't know if this is any better. Paul

yeh, like some one else is going to buy it Am I the only person who actually remembers it being played? Paul

Was it the verve that said the drugs don't work?. Well they obviously used too Paul By the way, I've just got broadband so I am a bit upload happy at the moment.

Lovely organ Matron. Love the title of the B side to Alan Haven "Romance In The North Sea" Obviously for all those Cleethorpes people out there Paul

Following on from the worst ever "northern" record ever etc. While flicking through my vinyl for the first time in years, I came across this abomination. Question 1 is what was the DJ thinking?. And question 2 is why have I got a copy?(this is the more worrying question) . Paul

Check this Mecca playlist out for 1974. I know a lot of them, but does anyone know all of them? Amongst others, I have noticed the ultra soulful Russ Abbot track. Paul

Sorry, but I always liked the Fugitives take on "Don't Play That Song" (in a strange sort of way). I preferred it to the A side. Paul
