Never heard of either of em! Are they new collectors or guys who have been around a bit? Im just selling my place and moving in with my fiance, she says what i make on my place i can do what i want with, am i gonna buy a load of records....? No.........but i might buy one! Chris

How many of the tracks in your dj box do you listen to at home? If you're like me not many i bet ................. I dont really play records at home anymore mate, although i used to when i lived alone and actually i threw a couple of Lps on today while i was home alone.... But whenever i do a CD i do a copy for myself and play it in the car or while i`m messing about on here, so i guess thats playing my own records! It would be interesting to go thru my boxes and know the date i last played every record out. So why do i keep them...? Shifty is always on my case about hoarding records i dont need but no way am i a collector, just keep stuff i might need "one day"....A couple of months ago i played Sam Fletcher out for the first time, even though I`d had it about 10 years...i knew I`d need it one day.......its an expensive hobby this DJing..... Chris

Not saying its in the tiop 10 but Burton on Trent has a claim... 76 club in the 70s Burton town hall in the 80s and 90s with over 400 in everytime Bretby Country club Belvedere club...still get 300+ in for most nights... Chris ps, My aunt is always trying to get me to some do in Scarborough but i cant figure out where it is, think it might be at the local pub. Anyway always feel a bit awkward there...me being a York fan and all that!

Think most dj's would consider themselves collectors as well with 1 noteable exeption but he's had enough stick on here today... .................... I disagree, i think a lot of major DJs buy and sell to be able to afford the latest tunes.A collector will buy stuff to store away and will rarely sell a record. I`m a bit in the middle here, I sell a lot of stuff i get from the US that i could keep but once a record has gone into the playbox it rarely finds its way to the sales box......... Chris

I was chatting to a guy on the phone tonight about a record he was buying and he was telling me about the stuff he has bought recently, a thousand pound tune here a 2k tune there...the thing is i had never heard of the guy before and here he is with a major collection spending thousands of pounds a year. I was wondering who are todays biggest spenders, i`m not asking dealers to name their best customers and you dont have to name names but just looking for stories of guys (or gals) spending big money all of a sudden? In my experience these guys tend to disapear as quickly as they appeared but thats not saying they are all like that. Recently I have been selling a lot of records to the US and I know Shifty has a guy in New York that is buying a lot of big records....... Chris

Got A CD from John Lloyd this morning, some great stuff on it but the stand out for me (so far) is a track from this LP...Crossroads of life....WOW! Anyone got a value...or even better anyone gonna sell me one? Cheers, Chris

Dave, Why are you selling a record you rarely (if ever) play out....there are plenty of other tunes I`d like to see you sell, bloody Big Daddy Rogers, Don Gardner, The Enchanters....!! Chris

Just had this thru from the US, anyone know it? Sounds like R&B to me....anyone give me a realistic value? Great looking label by the way... Cheers, Chris

I think i have one of these for sale contact me on chris.soul@btinternet and we can work something out......... Chris

Posted mine this morning, so should be with 21 of you Saturday am....Stateside will take a little longer i`m afraid! Really enjoyed the 2 I have played so far (Eddie and Drew).... Cheers, Chris

I had some awesome nights up there in the early 90s...always loved the atmosphere in the main room (where the cool people hung out) and the music in the second room.... I remember a great new-years eve do there with Sam and Bob Hinsley in the back room....nights to die for........ Chris

Just bought one after telling a mate "its one i need to own before i die"....£150 for an issue... all i need to do now is find a venue i can play it at! Chris

Would be hard pushed to put a value on this, the only time i saw it for sale was circa 1993 at Bretby for £150....I ummmm`d and arrrr`d all night and left it....never found a copy in the States....bloody rare in my opinion....and great too........ Chris

I know the track...just wanna hear it again.....anyone got a sample? Chris

Cheers Paul, anyone know the Morris Vaughn track? Chris

I have been playing "You make me feel good" out for the last 18 months or so....never knew it before that and it blew me away...awesome Detroit midtempo that just builds and builds..... £45 is an absolute give-a-way..........gotta be £100 now........ Chris

Hi Derek, I`ll take the Ben E King "Smoothsailing" if you still have it..... Cheers, Chris.

Absolute top guy.....his enthusiasm was infectious...my condolences to his family... Chris

At the last Cleethorpes a guy asked me to look thru his box, i pulled out a £200 record he had £30 marked on it....i told him it was 200+, we checked in the guide and sure enough it was £250. I dont know why i did this, i think nothing of taking any bargain i can get when in the US.....maybe because it was a regular customer who just did`nt know...and i like the guy.....i dont regret it, sure i did the right thing........but maybe would have dont the same thing in your situation...strangers are different but you have to look after your mates with records.....what goes around etc etc..... Chris

Morris Vaughn "Help Me / Just One Look " Gatetown 2105Jeff Dale "dont forget about me baby" Atco 6332 I know the manship guide value, just wondered what the tunes were like and if that price was accurate.... Cheers, Chris

Shifty at Ravinmad records has Detroit soul...mint copy....... Chris. plays mint but has some static right before the song starts for a second. ALSO... I WANT DETROIT SOUL- ALL OF MY LIFE ON MUSIC TOWN GET IN TOUCH!

B&Q got a special on cardboard boxes at the moment, look ideal for storing LPs......so i have heard...... Chris

Anyone got a sample of the tracks on this LP? Chris

Spooky Adey......I was going to ask if anyone knows much about their track "The two of us". I picked up a copy recently and its haunting me....wonderful vocals, just right for todays crossover scene...sure i`ve heard it out somewhere..... Chris.
