Has anyone of you seen this DVD? https://www.leroyburgess.com/lbblog/2006/03...d_released.html Good? Bad? Worth picking up? Looks interesting.

About 6-7 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking!

As I've mentioned elsewhere, this only applies to the "media" listings on ebay.co.uk, NOT on ebay.com where the fees are the "ususal". It's still a piss take though, I agree. And thanks for the heads up!

Damn how I love Georgie Fame's version of "Eso Beso" from the "Rhythm & Blues At The Flamingo" LP. Pity it's not on a 45 (or is it? ).

You're Gonna Miss Me - billy jones & solat - poker 16487 refosoul Here's the Billy Jones 45 I have. Unfortunately seems to be extremely hard to find. Matrix numbers can be supplied on demand...

Any chance of hearing the flipside?

I've sold three copies on eBay during the past six months at prices ranging from $100-$225.

Isn't the "I'll Keep Holding On"-guy the Billy Jones who was active in The Netherlands? Recorded as Billy Jones as well as Billy Jones & Solat. I have a very nice mid 70s 45 by him in a picture sleeve called "You're Gonna Miss Me", issued on the Poker label.

Nort much soul so far for me today... except for the latest thesoulscellar.com podcast... I've been busy digging in Ronnie James Dio's 50s and 60s recordings and I'm finding some pretty amazing stuff. Garage rock, tuff Link Wray-ish instrumentals, early rock'n'roll, The Who soundalikes and covers, Rod Stewart and Faces covers... I'm perplexed... how could he later make such a GIGANTIC wrong turn?

I'm glad you like it! Have probably played this tune some 20 times during the past 12 hours. What a piece of pop perfection. So much stuff going on in that wall of sound! Love it!!!

Was just sorting through some 45s here and suddenly came across a 45 which I've had in the "junk" pile for slightly too long. So put it on the turntable and... well it isn't exactly soul but it's in my opinion an absolutely SUBLIME piece of Mann/Weil penned brill building pop. I don't really know who to share this with but I just HAD TO play this to someone! This is an early (1965) 45 by Ronnie James Dio, yes, the same guy who later joined Black Sabbath and had his own band. But don't let that scare you...

Just wanted to make clear that I didn't say that it's rock'n'roll because it's a bad tune, as seems to be the case with a lot of people (ie: if it's early sounding and good then it's r&b, if it's early sounding and bad then it's r&r). I love rock'n'roll.

That's rock'n'roll with an absolutely awful vocal.

OK. Thanks anyway. Anyone else perhaps? I like his other Coral 45 (especially the uptempo side) and have wanted to hear "Soulville" for quite some time but can't spend £25 buying it "blind" unfortunately.

Any chance of a soundclip for "Soulville"?

It's way up there somewhere in the top for me to. Nice eclectic body of work... from Nazz, to his solo stuff, to producing/engineering parts of The Band's "Stage Fright", to producing Meat Loaf's "Bat Out Of Hell" album, to Utopia... you name it, he probably did it. Most of it brilliantly as well.

Posted at pretty much the same time. Had it down as a 1969 release in my AGP discography, though.

It's from 1969. As it's quite a cheap 45 I don't think it's been booted. Yes, it's the Masqueraders guy.

I've put together an MP3-mix featuring tracks from my current auctions for those of you who don't have the time to dig through all of the eBay listings. And even for those of you who aren't interested in buying anything it should make for about 70 minutes of nice listening.

Isn't that quite a BIG difference? Let's say that I should sell of a stack of bootlegs that I might have bought over the years, say 50 items, then that would've been it. Say instead that I had 200 copies each of 100 different bootleg 45s that I pressed up myself and kept pressing new ones. A big difference. A bit like when trying to bust drug leagues. You don't go after the individual sellers, you go after to the manufacturers and major distributors.

Sorry, can't help you, it plays OK here.

Yes, I think "Try It, You'll Like It" is great! Actually, I like almost all of The Sisters Love recordings and the recent compilation with their stuff on the UK label SoulJazz is an essential purchase if one doesn't want to chase down all the 45s. I'm also very partial to "You've Got To Make The Choice", the flip to "Mr. Fix-It Man" on MOWEST.

Here's the Harvey Averne Dozen version which I personally prefer. LP-only though... Wishing And Hoping - harvey averne dozen - atlantic lp 16339 refosoul

Nearly fell off my chair a couple of times when I was in Barcelona some months ago as I heard quite a lot of "accidental" soul. Off the top of my head, I heard Dorando's "Didn't I" in the background while eating tapas at some random restaurant and then while drinking some mojitos at some random bar I heard Silvetti's "Spring Rain" blasting in the background... Was a bit surprised.

If I haven't made it before then, I'm definitely coming at that date!!!
