Only down side to this if your djaying the track listing on the label is off to the record track 4 on label but is track 5 caught me out a couple of times after a few brown ales LOL but a brilliant choice Geoooooordie

Donnie Hathaway just chills me right out and this is wonderful the studio version is not as good as this live version, strangely enough the 7" single on atco has the studio and live on the same pressing cat number matrix etc had three copies two studio and one live and cannot tell them apart at all cheers geeoooooordie

Looking for 1. Living color thank the lord for love/gotta strange feeling - Madhatter 2. PURE FUNK - nothing left is real - planet earth 3. Chain reaction - Search for tomorrow - Blue wave Thanks Geeeoooordie

has been played out and about over the years i played it when we did the friendship nights about 10 years ago, was classed more as a pop record many moons ago, i have a copy myself and i put an old mate onto it recently and hes playing it regularly at his venue in the north east at the moment great tune which could have its day geeeeooooordie

Your probably right Dave... towld gene will tek it to his grave... anyway on my budget i'l just have to buy a crazy beat if i ever buy one... Geeooooordie

Looking across the net the earliest i can find of the balance town being sold on line is 2010... where were they until then... probably stuck in Genes garage LOL Geeeeooooordie

If your bootlegging and want it to appear legit it is logical to pick on the areas / names ie Balance town, that would create credibility, that's been done for years, that alone doesn't make it a legit copy, Also to quote sunny soul " but even as producer/ arranger/writer, did he have the rights to the masters in the first place ? Did the release need Gene's approval ? well he licensed it to Crazy beat so we can only assume he may well have had the rights, I can recall not to many moons ago no one knew about this single and most if not all of my collecting friends always insisted it as album only so the "cynics" who think it was brought out to meet the demand have a good argument due to the demand of the album, i know a couple of blokes who have a copy of the single and even they weren't aware until they came across a copy or at least they never ever mentioned to me in comment they were aware until it indeed became part of their collection. Its one of those arguments that no one will ever win because frankly no one knows, judging by the comments posted above and i certainly don't . what i do know is those who own a copy will crow on its legit (and at its discogs price traaaalaa its deffo legit LOL) and those who don't will throw spanners in and cry boot... But whatever you all argue over.. they are great tunes either way... never owned an album nor a single but you cant deny the quality. Geeeooooooordie

It is illegal to keep money paid to yourself or bank account the law clearly states and here it is verbatim... Keeping any money wrongly credited to your account could lead to you being charged with 'Retaining wrongful credit'. The 1968 Theft act defines this as: "A person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it". It goes on to say that: "A person is guilty of an offence if: 1. a wrongful credit has been made to an account kept by him or in respect of which he has any right or interest; 2. he knows or believes that the credit is wrongful; and he dishonestly fails to take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to secure that the credit is cancelled." tell the police Geeooooordie

No Andy it was the Compass club at the top of South parade that my Cousin Ken owned, i ran it for 4 years for him its now fitzgeralds downstairs that was books fashions the compass was upstairs above the shop Geeooordie

Patto is spot on...northern soul is a dance style/scene not a music, and the music played is to meet that style/scene many of the tunes are from many genres including country and western etc, but they fitted the Rhythm and dance style and mood.. I remember years ago when i ran a club in whitley bay every Tuesday we'd have a rock and roll night, a band called the wildcats played (lead guitarist was hilton valentine ex lead from the animals), during the breakwe'd have Djs playing tunes.. the rock and roll crowd were worse for collecting than the soul crowd, rare, underplayed expensive you name it,,, one dj used to play a rock and roll tune every time that got on my tits... but hed been playing it a rock and roll and doowop nights for years he was an oldish geezer then.... go forward circa 25 + years in a club at a Northern Night the said tune comes on and the soul crowd fill the floor... what was it... Dean Barlow third window from the right.... and plenty of what is now R&B/northern has been nicked from that scene Barnaby bye were a soft rock group etc etc.. many a modern dance tracks were big club sounds also, Im glad music likes are personal it would be crap if we all liked the same thing, one mans rubbish is another mans gold and all that, as long as we love what we love.. hey ho Geeeoooordie

ha ha, my conservatories a closed shop, . but i'l do you a playlist next time im in LOL

I agree Nev, and of late i see people getting dj spots that.. lets face it they are soul lovers but not collectors or even djs who haveve started to buy a bit of vinyl, playing mediocre tunes, they self promote themselves on Fbook continually wanting attention posting their playlist, bumming up to promoters (when the next event is looming) ... and then blow me. people blow smoke up their arses saying or posting how great said persons mundane sets were (the same folk actually prior too were saying.."nowt special" common tunes. boring etc). Ive Djayed in clubs since the 80's, can use a mike, have promoted venues, and actually could care less if i DJ or not, but asked i will and play from the heart, and never ask to dj never bumm anyone and only post my plays if asked, Recently i was told about someone (just an average punter who has djayed sometimes ) but nothing to pull any trees up not a collector but has small selection of tunes, who was most upset that they weren't given a particular spot in a particular room at an event and let anyone who would listen know the fact, and sulked for quite a while over it..... that makes me puke. I probably dont wave my arms around enough or act like a sycophant to any promoter out there, to be asked... probably why i only go to one or two select venues now... the rest bore me, that's the sad thing... and 9 times out of 10 i hear better music in my conservatory than i do out. Humph im grumpy today Geeeooooordie
