Most expensive "common" records
Channel 3 on Dakar. Numerous copies every month show. Still sat on dealers 'online' shelves with 'daft' prices stuck on 'em. Go back in another 6 months.... they'll still be there! LOL! Regards, Dave

BBC People's History of Pop - Wigan Casino & Northern Soul
A Spanish TV Crew asked if they could film a documentary of 2 young Spanish fans 'soul journey' during the Benidorm International Soul Fiesta in May. I know the 2 Spanish lads very well and agreed. Both Mick H and myself were interviewed and managed not to make horses asses out ourselves and the 2 Spanish lads did equally well but sure as eggs are eggs it was all interspersed with 'rinse and repeat' footage from This England. Even AFTER explaining to the producer and the front man that that was a false image of what we're about nowadays. If there was visually impacting, vintage film or video of TOTW, 100 Club, etc they'd use it. Anything that has a visual impact. Thing is... media folks are ONLY interested in visual imagery. Any substance or intimate detail, if perchance it does materialise in any production, is more by fluke than design. Dave

Record Shops During The Torch Days
I was in Electron on my last visit to Burnley, bought a copy of OJays - Love Train - UK CBS. £2.00). More out of sentimental loyalty than anything else. LOL! I completed just about the entire UK Motown LP catalogue from The Record Exchange on Standish Street in the late 70s. All in the 50p-£1.00 range, although I think he had Earl Van Dyke down at £1.25. (I still have lots of them). Happy Days. Regards, Dave

Soul Artists Had It Tough
Here's a link to what is probably the definitive book on the history of The Chitlin' Circuit. Don Robey's massive contribution to it's development as an outlet for black music is also portrayed in good depth. Some of the anecdotes about the early days are real wild west stuff. Great book and highly recommended to SS members with an interest in this stuff. Regards, Dave https://www.amazon.com/The-Chitlin-Circuit-Road-Rock/dp/0393342948

New slant or same old same old
Not sure if this young lady has been highlighted on SS yet but here's a video of her performance of the Johnny Brantley produced classic. Not quite sure if it's different enough in tempo and style to really make the song her own or not. She can certainly sing but for a first outing should she maybe have chosen a new song? Thought it might be of interest to members... Lucinda Slim Video Regards Dave PS. Not sure what's happening with the 'quote thing'
