  1. i think it was an English only mid-60s dancer. If anyone's got it who wrote it? ta Ady
  2. Sure did, thanks, I'd forgotten all about it.
  3. it was a cut from the master tape i found, I eventually found the 1st 45 of it at Billy Jackson's. Ken Ronnie Milsap was Scepter, the sister label of course (but belatedly came out on UK Wand I think).
  4. I can see why someone with dosh would pay 4 grand for that it's great, obviously super-rare and cute with it. Did a DJ buy it to share it out with us plebs John?
  5. The Tandels female orig Is It Love Baby and the Magicians male orig Just A Little Faith And Understanding. Buy the Kent CDs and keep me in work. They're great comps too! Ady

  7. It's all stuff from Popcorn Wiley, wasn't it something to do with Guy Hennigan?
  8. Probably from me, I had half a dozen Shane Ms and didn't know my prices, I was very popular. I think The Fuller Bros was the 2nd copy that Dave Burton took up to the Torch from Soho, I think the first was already up North but don't quote me.
  9. Presumably as an LP track on one of those budget jobbies that featured Dress rehearsal etc?
  10. And does anyone know if its the same geezer? I'd love to speak to him again.
  11. Hi Brian, did Jeff have a place in Brum? I couldn't quite follow your sentence. I always thought he was a Leicester chap and used to visit his market stall there, but I was fifteen at the time.
  12. I've got one somewhere for you, if I can ever find it.
  13. The second Fuller Brothers was about £70 to Minsh in approx 72 at the Torch. I remember Jeff King wanting a fiver for a UK Human Beinz on his stall in Leicester market about 1970, that was a fortune to me (couldn't afford it) but about the same time I did splash out a quid on a couple of sounds. Mick Humphries paid £4 around then for Hooked By Love Homer Banks, which I thought was crazy because his best one 60 Minutes was only a quid or so.
  14. Bummer! What a shame, you were the most visionary and delivering promoters on the scene and it is much weaker for your departure. I'm sure you both really deserve a break. Dealing with the niggles and fragile egos of the scene is tough on anyone and ironically especially on people who care. If you fancy another bash later I'm sure there'll be a vacancy for a forward thinking promoter who puts their money where their mouth is. In the meantime just come out and have some fun, you're welcome at the 100 anytime.
  15. And of course it was Gilly who put Kent on to the whole Dave Hamilton deal. However check with Gillly again as I'm sure the copy we scanned was his via Chris Ashby.
  16. Ex 100 Clubber and a big fan of Dave Hamilton's Detroit Dancers. I persuaded her to duet Private Number with William for Ace's 30th anniversary at the Jazz Cafe and it went down so well they redid it on Jools Holland. I'm in the background on a table necking the free beer.
  17. Please Ady
  18. Pete from Northampton lives there now, he's coming to Cleethorpes, I'll hook you up. Ady
  19. PayPal's been OK for me, it's Ebay that have screwed me up!
  20. Yeah I don't know where the "on it's arse" came from it's pretty groovy in my little corner. I think James is originally from a less polite scene than ours usually is, but I think the banter is used to get points across or just publicity. I must admit I was a bit surprised at some of the stuff on the Modern sites too.
  21. It's very good indeed, but not in the Northern top 100. Possibly about # 776 but that might be because my faves would be mainly mid 60s sounds not this slightly later influenced period. I like hearing it out, but I do think the vocal backing hook, which is what makes it for me, is nicked off another pop record, but I can't remember which. Tony Rounce would know.

    Beth's pleased to hear about the producer on that record then.
  23. And in a nutshell it's her greatest dance hits for people who either aren't Millie completists or like the dancers all in the same place. And there are some good edits and a special original US mix or two to boot. Sean did a fab job and alerted me to quite a few I didn't (and should have) know.
