  1. Copies are already out for some time now.
  2. I said "ordinary kitchen towels, e.g. cotton". Paper towels are just as bad. They also can leave tiny little bits of fibre residue in the grooves.
  3. I can't believe the *** that people write about cleaing records either Ordinary kitchen towels, e.g. cotton, can leave fibre residue in the grooves. Hot water can harm your vinyl. Use microfibre towels and warm water instead. I get pretty good results in cleaning vinyl and styrene from using a hand-operated record washing machine like Pro-Ject Spin. But setting it up makes sense only when you got more than a handful of records to clean. You can easily mix the cleaning fluid that comes with these machines yourself. 70% distilled water, 30% pure isopropanol and 2-3 drops of dishwashing liquid. Pour a bit on your record, spread it evenly. Clean the record using a microfibre towel. put the record aside for a couple of minutes to let the cleaning fluid evaporate. Done.
  4. I bought both mid 90s after Derek Pearson recommended them in SoS. "Didnt know how to" was 15 quid, "Don't know about you" 25. Plenty of copies around. I sold for 75 and 100 in the early 2ks when I thought price had peaked due to the number of copies around. Not one of smartest decisions.
  5. It was a huge record on the continental mod scene in the mid/late 90s. As was Timebox.
  6. Sorry, my mistake. Same artist, same label, different release. It was „come and get these memories“ @ 600 quid.
  7. There was one on his website @600 quid.
  8. Tremendous 8x CD / 2x DVD / 160 pages booklet box set from 2015. Long out of print. Discs never played. Booklet read therefore minor signs of wear. All around fantastic condition. 100 GBP plus postage from Germany. Payment Paypal only. Postage depends on destination and if standard/registered/insured. Please PM for further details
  9. I‘m after a copy of the 1980s reissue of Kenard Gardner - What did you gain b/w Entertainers IV - my garden of eden on Dore. Please PM if you can help
  10. I know the following tracks were credited to the real artists: Reubel Bell, D‘Italians, Master Four, Embers, Sisters Three, Hal Hardy, Charmers, Inverts, Vito & Salutations, Bill Horton, Jackie Day, Eddie Holman, Chuck Carter, Jimmy Richards, Roscoe Shelton, Little Ann, Brooks Bros, Bobby Adams. And these are the cover ups I recalled: Phrenetics - uncredited acetate Tina Britt - Bunny Shivel on Capitol Fantastic Four - unissued Temptations Patty J - Paulette on Contact Can somebody help me with the others?
  11. It's also on the German Jay Boy 45. Probably faulty tape.
  12. Obviously, all members of this forum in general and all members frequenting this thread in particular. Have you answered in their name?
  13. Just wondering, how do you guys want Northern Soul to continue as a dance scene?
  14. 1k reserve for Ronnie Dyson? Really???
  15. Might have been just the stamper wearing off during the press?
  16. Had my reservations when I read the opening post. Expected to see the same 3/4 figure tunes listed "as usual". But @Mal C listed a nice varied list that gives a good impression of what "modern" tunes are played these days in the UK. And many cheaper tunes among them. And it includes a few surprises as well like Ogletree Bros. Seems like it finally got the plays it deserves. Ah well, biggest modern nighter sounds. How about Jackson Sister - I believe in miracles? Even though it's been played as a new release it seems to be as popular as ever.
  17. Not UK only I'm afraid.
  18. I'm far from being a traditional northern soul fan. Infact I'm quite into new non-retro sound releases. But this one here, I'd say this is isn't soul at all. more like some cosmic balearic trance whatever underlayed with some beat.
  19. yes you're right. adjusting pitch would be much harder.
  20. And not just scratching. It's also easier to mix your records.
  21. I'm no fan of national tournaments especially when germany is involved, so I follow the euro less than half-heartedly, maybe quarter-heartedly. But anyway, my teenage daughter watches almost every game. And based on what she told me I predict the final to be: a) spain - france or b) spain - germany (just realized, this is bs, they will be playing against each other in the quarter finals)
  22. Please no "what you're willing to pay". Just name your price and I will say yes or no. Thank you.
  23. I'm after a nice copy of Lillian Dupree - Hide and seek on D-Town. Please PM me if you can help. Thanks!
