Have to agree, Pete's casts are brill, current faves are Rocksteady summer chill out #1 and the Mixed Juke Box one with Tres Delinquentes in it (vol1?). Have subscribed to them via iTunes so I get them downloaded automatically. Apart from the two podcasts from end of last week, can't download them. Technical reasons? They have inspired me to have a go myself and managed to knock together three different BenjiCasts that are massive sounds on my iPod Any way, Pete, keep on doing them podcasts. Keeps you busy and away from telling us what you think of the Carstairs

Still available! Am open to any nice offers in trades, 60s midtempo/beat ballads preferred...

I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out your white label 7" is simply a test press of the Horace's reissue.

PM replied. And to everybody else: Record is still for sale! Ralf's PM wasn't about a potential purchase...

It's on Metronome not Metrodome. I have a copy somewhere but can't remember where According to my files it was released in 1971 in Germany, what's the release year for the UK Ember one? For security reasons my office PC won't show me the scans posted in this thread.

Was just wondering, does anyone know where the backing tracks to Candle and What'cha gonna do came from? One was the Dynamics "I need your love" wasn't it? What was the other one? Many many years ago I saw a record on a record list described as "uses the same backing track as Doni Burdick Whatcha gonna do". All I remember is the record in question was from Philly (Phil L.A.??)

Maybe you've heard the other version by the Reflections on Capitol before?

Hi, I'm after Bill Brandon - Self Preservation on South Camp. Must play fine (don't need ballads playing with crackles), issue or demo (whatever is cheaper). Please PM me. Benji

Great group soul double sider worth every penny! But blue eyed? Don't think so...

Great Garage double sider, sounds brill played out loud (tho I wouldn't play it at a soul dance...) Anyone knows how the song ended up in Australia?

Ortofon 2M Red cartridge and matching stylus is by far the best value for money set up! Reduces surface noise and scuffing on styrene presses and has an all around brill sound quality. Highly recommended! Thanks to Sebastian for the tip... Don't know how much Ortofon stuff is in the UK but I guess around 100 quid for cartridge and stylus?

Google's book search site is a pretty good start for getting release dates. If a certain record was featured in say Billboard magazine a result pops up. E.g. Velvet Satins was reviewed in Billboard magazine on May 8, 1965.
