the nicholas brothers, along with bojangles, were by far the most famous.

thanks everybody. from now on I'll go directly to more funding options every time. that way I can pay with whichever card I like. I don't want the canutes even touching my bank a/c!! cheers, M

too right. the returned payments were in my bank statement & had been returned 'cos I was overdrawn. fair enough. they also coincided with 'failed transfers' on my paypal account, which I access directly & never from emails. what surprised me was that fact that my primary funding option had been changed to my bank account. I don't remember changing it, so I can only assume they'd done it. how can they move money out of your account without your authorisation? that surely must be dodgy, no? I'm gonnapay extremely close attention to my funding options from now on.

What's with Paypal pushing you to use your bank account as the primary funding option? Before, I paid for stuff with my credit card & my bank account was only used for withdrawing funds. Next thing I know is I find a raft of reversed payments, 'cos my bank refused to pay up, due to my negative bank balance. Paypal then start sending me messages saying that I had told my bank that I had not authorised said payments, freezing my account in the process. I'm then asked to reactivate the account changing passwords & entering new funding options etc, etc. A right pain in the rectum! It had crossed my mind that I'd been the victim of phishing or whatever. Has this happened to anybody else?

the holocaust didn't happen. US troops didn't commit atrocities in Vietnam, the CIA didn't topple Allende & the snake was never ever a popular record at all-nighters in the mid 70's. what's more, neither is it a soul record & al wilson is the white al wilson from canned heat, we all know that.

thanks john. I see the joe hinton has come down a lot then, which is odd when things generally tend to go up. I can remember issues of it selling for 80 quid or so a couple of years back.

yes paul, but then there are lots of kids who'd have given their right arm to have attended the (golden) torch. I was 13 when it closed, so like you with the wheel, I was three years out too. I did get to the casino in february 1975 though, when some people thought it had already plunged into a downward spiral. the wheel for me is something I can't really relate to. the torch however, would probably have been quite familiar to me, had I stepped into a tardis. I dunno...

Maybe due to the fact that JM has a M- issue for 85. I always thought it was an easy one... clich coming... back in the day.

most beat ballads. I thought it was all coming down around my ears then. now I've learnt to appreciate them for what they are... don't say it pete!

Anybody know a sensible value on this one in EX? I believe there are two demos, one with 'Show Time' as the flip, the other single sided.

this is an interesting thread. chris has mentioned the stuff played darn sarf, which to a sprog like me, looks pretty much like traditional northern fare. would it be true to say that 'pockets of resistance' remained in the south, & that not everybody got into the more funkier sounds coming out of black america towards the end of that decade? & what about venues? did they fizzle out? the history books have left us with this north-south divide business, but I'm sure life wasn't that black & white, was it? M

a speedy recovery russ. best, macca

CAN'T SEEM TO GET YOU OUT OF MY MIND - THE FOUR TOPS At various points in my life!! Levi definitely hits the mark. Did this have a US 45 release? M

the world has the right to know!

Original vinyl, all the time. Respect is the operative word, especially to those around you. I'm there pulling stuff out for my spot & the hypothetical bootster, finishing his set, sticks on the Del-Larks. What do I do with my real one? Meekly file it back in alphabetical order & say not tonight josephine? We're talking prime time spots, aren't we? Is it any more ethical at early doors? I think not. M p.s. I don't own the del-larks, but as we're talking about a fictitious person at a fictitious venue, spinning fictitious records, it serves the purpose of debate, which is why we're here, innit?

when I hear about things like this, it makes me even more convinced that all the bonhomie, togetherness, right on brother, keep the faith sloganeering on this scene is just a bunch of crap. I have made a lot of friends over the years, but have been let down a few times too. admittedly, there's good & bad everywhere, but the NS scene, for some inexplicable reason (or not so inexplicable) always seems to have attracted a kind of petty criminal class. we all used to cock a wink at rogues who 'did' the chemists and the like, but your common light fingered larry was always on the prowl, taking advantage of a moment's distraction around in record bars & tables etc; I had my prized leather trenchie nicked at st.ives. I wonder where are you now, you loathsome git? I do hope you recover your record andy. I feel for you.

just stick the precisions in the site search engine & they'll all (most) come up mate. M

the black fellows from detroit I guess.

think we had a debate a while back on the merits of such misery vs woman lover thief, didn't we? I love both versions. incidentally, is the drew original of SM rare these days?

vomit inducingly yours sounds as good in my opinion... M

I was seriously asked the other week how to identify members of the SP, if they dressed/behaved in a particular way, any tell tale sings that gave them away etc; the person in question is about to attend his first event in the UK, the 100 Club 28th anniversary. he's genuinely nervous about it, poor sod.
