    I allways thought it was a native american fable , Any dj,s on here should embrace thier inner divvy and play it out and watch the floor fill

    Clarice Cliff pottery sells for vast amounts of money between private collectors she doesnt see a penny of it same with rare records OVO is for me about provenance and a tangible link with the artist its that simple . So the idea that OVO is in the artists interest is at best a misnomer

    In the sleeve notes on the Junior Walker album Shotgun ( MFP ) " Music from the heart for the feet " sums it up nicely for me

    Judging by the examples offered I hope I am never grown up enough to understand it .

    Bought quite a few water damaged albums in the early 70s from Robinsons records in Manchester ( Tamla, Gordy , Motown ) once you scraped the barnacles they played fine only the sleeves were knackered .

    I much prefer to remember these great artists in their heyday dont wnt to see them as elderly and struggling , the music they were famous for was vibrant and young and thats how it should stay . I watched some youtube clips of Levi Stubbs recently and it was heartbreaking and painfull to watch someone that had given so much pleasure so obviosly suffering .

    Back in the day I thought it was quite cool but now 40/50 odd year olds just look like Uncle Knobhead at a wedding .

    Maybe a poor analagy I dont know but the principle is quite simple . People are free to choose whatever format they want I,m not judging them . Part of the OVO thing for me is that link with an era , who,s hands has that disc passed through before it got to my box / ears, was the artist trolling round Detriot with copies of it in the boot of his car trying to get exposure ? . this albeit a bit of a nieve view to some is how I feel about the subject , its so much more than just the music its history .

    Difinitive answer , you can stare all day at a print of the Mona Lisa it will register the same visual message in your brain as the original would but............. it lacks provenance , history and a tangible link to the artist in short it lacks soul . Well thats my view anyway . edit typo corrected

    I will probably get lambasted and strung up for this . Working of an assumption that soul music is a reflection of the black experience and all that embodies then if a white artist sings soul surely its an imitation of that style .
