Shinehead

Bit off topic about djs pitching up but I am certain I once read a article with Bobby Eli the writer/producer who said the James Bounty tune was speeded up from the original recording always loved this track but certain elements of it do seem too fast background vocals etc.

Been listening to Latasha for a few months on YouTube she is good and the vid below is a great revamp on Mary Wells

Think the Stars and Stripes as the Wikipedia link is a totally different publication as you state .

Seem to be no mention of this mag on the internet for sale or any other mention all I can find is on the covers of early seventies issues the price of Blues and Soul is on the cover price plus the price of Stars and Stripes , I always thought it said incorporating Stars and Stripes sure it did at one time. I have no copies anymore all went to landfill years ago so cannot check myself. The cover of Blues and Soul also says International Music Review which indicates it was distributed world wide , maybe Stars and Stripes was just a subtitle for the U.S. market , someone out there will know for sure.

Never seen a copy myself and always wondered about it mainly due to the fact it always used to state on the mag "Blues and Soul " incorporating Stars and Stripes when I first started buying the mag around 1971 and for a long time after , be interested to find out a bit about the mag myself.

Fair enough , Have a Carver cut it is not frowned upon unless people out there know the legalities better than me. Plenty of companies offering this service.

Is it a criminal offence to play it out on a Cd , great unreleased tracks like these need there place on the sun just play it on Cd .

Whatever next '' Tribute bands ''

Think you have too much time on your hands

This a bit obvious

Agree totally, the first couple of seconds also remind of Phillip Mitchell's ''Just The Beginning " which is not surprising given the writing credits

When I searched eBay with MDF record boxes the ones by soulboy were the first on the list but tried to do a link and could suss it out Hopefully some good to the opening poster .

Thanks for your help .

The guy is on Ebay just type in MDF record boxes in the search facility.

Nice Video , thought her dancing is ok the kicks seem a bit more old style centre half than the athletic type seen back in the day . But the video is a nice montage of old and new and enjoyable and does the song justice.

R.I.P Chuck

Watched the show thought the young couple came across well , I was more intrigued though by Paul Heaton of The Housemartins and his odd collection of everything from Shoe horns, crisp packets and football scarfs and that's the most normal things !

Less publicity the better In my opinion.

Great selection , and as you stated this topic is about great LP's what you can play from start to finish with no fillers. A few recommendations I will try to pick up

I saw most soul acts at the city hall during the 80s but I definitely did not go to that one obviously with Teddy long departed and Sheila Ferguson gone I must have thought not worth the bother.

This album seems to have been recorded live during the same tour . https://www.discogs.com/release/16196330-Various-The-Sound-Of-Philadelphia-Live-In-London
