The sleeve is French (I have another in the series), and since there's no word for "Weekend" in French, I'd guess that the record is as well.

James Trouble has/had one.

Came out on British MGM if my memory serves me well.

Had one in my sales for ages - ended up sticking it on eBay and got just over £30 for it.

Think Richard Karstrom has just listed one on eBay - his ID is modnotmod

Volumes on Pama

might have a Lula Reed & Freddy king... give me half an hour for a quick look through the sales boxes...

I think it's the 'Sorry No Paypal' that's putting people off - it is me, anyway...

Remember that night well. I took my Doc Martens off, took my socks off, then put the boots back on with my socks over the top - Hey presto, instant grip & a mopping action whilst dancing...

Common as muck. Came in a picture sleeve the same as the one on the 12".

Heard this on the radio today and thought it had a very early 70s Hot Wax / Invictus sound to it.

you're not wrong there... I'd rather keep the cash in the bank for something rare thant comes along.

Don't get me wrong, I hope that he has 1000 copies so that I can get one when the price plummets.

Definately came out on British - think the label was Evolution... Whether it was played or not I haven't a clue.

Definately the Kent 100 club anniv 45 first.

He must have sold in excess of 100 copies then, as he definately makes second chance offers. Makes you wonder how many he has exactly ? I personally wouldn't risk more than I could afford to lose on it, since theres a serious chance of it turning out to be another Danny Moore or Royal Esquires - so $300 would be my top bid.

Deffo late 80s - always wanted to go, but couldn't as it was a right bind to get to since i didn't drive at the time.

Far from up my own arse, I was pointing out that you are, to put it mildly, clueless. By using such examples to prove your extremely lame argument and in questioning my knowledge of Soul music because I happen to have a reasonable level of knowledge about other types of music proves this to me. Ergo it wouldn't be difficult for me to have forgotten more than you know - since you clearly know, to put it in local parlance 'knob all'. . The three records you quoted as having a high content of 'Rock and Roll' are all 'Northern Soul' records, whether you can get your head around it or not. None of them are played on the Rock and Roll scene - and why would they be? There are plenty of great Strollers, Jivers and Rockabilly tracks out there without the Rock and Roll scene having to resort to playing mid 60s Rhythm and Blues / Soul records... so R&R? Nah don't think so... Seeing three members of the Masqueraders (a Soul group that last time i pulled one of their 45s off the shelves) sat enjoying the music in the R&B room at Prestatyn vindicated playing what i play for me (not that it needs vindication). At the end of the day, any record that has been played and accepeted on any scene, becomes part of that scene. So until you can come up with a stronger argument, I suggest you go on refosoul and find some better examples of Rock and Roll that is played in Northern Soul venues. p.s. if there was no R&B (or Rock and Roll as you mistakenly call it) there would have been no Soul music - fact.

Without blowing my own trumpet, i've probably forgotten more about Soul than you'll ever know. I'd love to take you on in a battle of wits, however I don't like attacking an unarmed man.

Nah, they are the only three R&B records he knows the names of, and this is a lazy attempt at being controversial. The truth is, webbydublin doesn't have a clue what Rock & Roll, or R&B are and is just trying to get a rise.,

The latter two have been hammered on the Northern scene for the last 10-15 years, and never played on the Rock & Roll scene, so that kind of answers the question...

If you think these sound like Rock and Roll, then quite frankly your ears must be painted on. There are plenty of R&B tracks that are IMO borderline R&R, but they would never be played in Northern rooms, so i don't see the problem with them.

The buyer of the sleeves, going by his sales appears to be British, even though he's registered as a US member. The Thick Plottens.

Which one? UK or US? And why have i said this an hour in the future?
