Correct...................Give that man another bottle of Stella.....................

Also :- 1) Otis Day & the Nights. 2) Herbie & the Heartbeats. Now name the films they came from. Regards Ritchie.

My heart took a licking - MGM. Good early track by Millie, & and an Ex Mecca early spin !! Regards Ritchie.

Nice one Jon I got them mixed up with the Cole Haan - Mens pinch buckle. they look almost identical. Regards Ritchie.

The "slip ons" on John's avatar are made by Cole Hann & available on the internet. Cole Hann are the Holy Grail manufacturers of Quality American Loafers. Regards Ritchie.

This style of clothing ( for those of us old enough to remember ) is of course the Mod Look from the mid sixties. Ben sherman shirts were a copy of "Brooks brothers" shirts but with a tailored or waisted look. Proper or vintage denim Jeans & jackets, are still available on the Internet. Nowadays most people dont care about "Cone 501 or 818 Jelt" denim, but the ones whoe still persue such clothes & styles pay top prices to secure the desired items. So its not just rare sixties sounds some of us are after. The clothes a styles are part of our heritage as well. Regards Ritchie.

Cracking Crossover ...............I think its on Judnell, not South Camp. regards Ritchie.

Please state the Maximum prices you are willing to pay for each item. Regards Ritchie.

Can remember Bob with the Magnetics, and an episode when Colin Curtis came from Stoke especially to buy one. There's an old saying regarding Purchases : Some people know the Price of everything but the value of Nothing !!!!!. Regards Ritchie

Helllo Mark, Just had a look @ your Top 5.... Chicago & Detroit with a Newark New Jersey. Also its coming up for a year (this Saturday) since you did the "two Cities of Northern Soul" at Sheridans. Although the turn out was a little dissapointing, the records played that night were AWESOME, as was the set up between the rooms. I loved that place, whatever promoter was running it on the night. Does anybody know whats happened there ? apart from an attempted murder outside there around Christmas time!!. Regards Ritchie.

Here's my Top 5. Not in any particular order, bur all L.A. tunes. 1) Virginia Blakly - let nobody love you - Mojo. 2) The Oracles - Ain't got time - OM. 3) Ty Karim - lighten up baby - Car-a -mel. 4) The Groovettes - Think it over baby - Reness. 5) Pamela Beaty - Talkin' eyes - Tip. Regards Ritchie.

Rod's been into the "Scene" from the very beginning (as I have) and years ago, US dealers couldn't wait to offload some of their stuff on Uk based collectors. Then over time the Rarity of some of these records became apparent, and slowly but sureley, the realisation kicked in that an aspect of Americas "Music heritage", had been sold mostly far too cheaply abroad. Nowadays people Stateside have wised up to whats happening, but the majority of Black Americans still have no idea of the rich tapestry of Collectable rare soul records, they have supplied to Great Britian. One mans leftovers etc.......... Best regards Ritchie.

Mark, I still think its disco-ish (L-R ....... but hey its 2006 now. Best regards Ritchie
