Had my second white demo for over twenty years, bought it from Val Palmer when she sold a few tunes way back then, sold the first one for about eight quid at Stafford lol apart from being hard to find it's a dynamite record both sides, reckon this is in collections and there they will stay, stunning record and a genuine rare 45. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Have a copy for sale sent you a PM. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Beautiful Brett just beautiful, this can not be topped except maybe when I used to say it lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Rat Race still the dogs bollocks and one of the best ever. Mark.

Harold Burrage on hold. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Off the topic a bit but imagine some of the 'Two For The Price Of One' bootlegs and others actually being on sale in a shop, hanging from the walls in all their glory, could never happen could it?????? where there's muck there's brass I guess. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Yes Ezzie fair price for UK Beacon but don't collect British mate. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Cheers Paul, won it at a fair price I feel. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Just curious of what's on offer. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

How much you offering? Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I would have thought that with the huge number of members here on Soul Source many of which are record collectors, DJ's etc. that we could certainly make some noise to Ebay on this so they will have to listen and take action. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Johnny Bartel And The Soul Masters now reported, I also added that all this persons listings are bootlegs. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I've just reported the George Pepp, reckon if two or three people report each of the now 93 listings this will do the trick and Ebay may actually act on this, disgrace and I so hope the fuckers get what's coming to them. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Cheers Paul, I must have missed that when I had a look on Ebay, fingers crossed lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Wanted Marshall And The Chi Lites - Love Bandit - Daran in nice clean condition please, contact bicknellmark@aol.com or via PM here. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Must be around Stafford time Rus, remember coming out of there with both this and Betty Wilson for about 8 quid each, not got them now I might add lol Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Not cynical Pete just expressing an opinion which you seem to do on a regular basis on here, I never mentioned anything about records just what the scene has turned into which has become a little like a fancy dress party for the over fifties in some areas of the scene and is something that I personally would rather not be a part of and choose not to be involved with anymore. It's almost got to the stage that we are simply going through the motions and do this soul thing no matter what, perhaps because we know nothing else in most cases, as a scene it's be pulled apart and basically battered into submission, for those that still have the passion, dedication and commitment to do it then respect and good luck to them but also respect the flip of the coin and the opinions of others if you like them or not, for me and I stress for me it's simply not fun anymore and has nothing to do with my love for the music that we all know never goes away, guess it's a bit like a boxer who has one fight too many where you forget the greatness and simply see a punch drunk broken man and sorry but I'd rather not sit ringside anymore it's too painful in most cases. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I know it's not the result you want here but would it not perhaps be better to forget this put it down to experience and make sure it never happens to you again. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

This is gonna get out of hand very quickly, nip it in the bud Mike. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Subject to payment this is now sold. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I think it disappeared up there long ago personally, too much conflict, too much opinion, too much retro, nostalgia bollocks which rules the roost on today's scene, in certain areas it's turned into nothing more than a middle age fancy dress party, baggie pants, stupid hats, circular skirts and all the other naff nonsense has turned the scene into what we were all so worried that it could become, the music has almost become a watered down backing track to this retro scene that masquerades it's self as a rare soul scene in some areas and it sucks it really does, it's very sad but not a suprise, I'll take the tuneage over and above all else, I certainly don't feel the need to join this fancy dress party which basically has nothing to do with the Northern scene I grew up with which was to enjoy, collect, play and celebrate quality hard to find, authentic obscure Black American music. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

I'm so far out of the field with the gate shut I can't hear the sheep or even see the sheppard anymore and thank f**k for that. Regardss - Mark Bicknell.
