If you say so I will believe you Nev...top horn player that you are

seen for anything between 250 up to 500 UKP.

well nth wrong with being behind as long as its you that is in front...as you indeed know your funk`n´soul and are one of the connisseurs thats for sure !

no prob steve, as there was no ballon LOL I said as far as I know...I am happy to learn more people are playing it out..as its one fantastic tuen IMO that needs as much airplay as possible.

If not I am sure Andy Dyson will have played it. Its him, Arthur Fenn and me playing it as far as I know. Fabulous tune and currently on ebay as it seems the guy selling it had not received the right offer via Soul Source..

Not so sure on that one Tony. I remember negotiating with the guys at Motown/Universal when I wanted to get the rights to relase an unreleased Eddie Holland track on my label. They said "we can`t find the title neither in our files nor on any tapes..the tune in question is not existent" I answered it is well in existence as I have the original Jobete acetate in my hands while we speak. Still they couldn`t find it. And what they can`t find (in their own vaults) just simply doesn`t exist (for them). Marc

10/10 cheers Jaco.

Is that right ? I would have thought its a known record to most ? I just played it last saturday to a good response at Bremen`s Soul-A-Rama...Having said that it must have been the first time I played it since over a year at least....solid old fashioned LA stomper. Who was the only other 45 on Utopia by ? Marc

The Flame and The Lovelights on Jaber is one fantastic doublesided 45 indeed...and it is in fact by Jackey Beavers. Not only did he write and produce it, its even him singing... Good price on that one as well...

J¶rg Brenner...found it in some sort of Humana / Fair Trade second hand shop for a dollar or less indeed. Marc

not that I know (can`t do soundfiles at all ) Marc

In that case do yourself a favour dan mate and make the duo a complete trio: His best by far is "I'll Take My Chance With You" on HIT SOUND Sadly also his rarest

well its quite easy, the hitsound version for the funk floor, the suncut with its nice horns for the soul floor. At least for me

in fact I believe one needs to have both releases. Its actually the deep flipside of the Hitbound that got my attention in the first place and made me focus in this 45 in general when I found the Suncut record. In fact I do believe it -the deep side- almost sounds like a (first) version of Bob Marleys "No Woman No Cry"...I wouldn`t be too surprised if he got his idea from this record...anyway. "One Woman Man" https://sirshambling....percolator.html I have played the Suncut 45 since almost over a year by now at almost every occasion and it always goes down extremely well...and amazingly many people come and continue to come to ask me what and by whom it is by... Great artist Perk Badger aka Mr Percolator ! Marc

mmh, can`t think of any of my guest DJ´s who has not thanked me be it private or in public for a great night, hospitality etc. . This includes al ot of England`s top DJ`s who I am certain are not desperate to DJ in any way. Quite the opposite in fact as I am the desperate person to get them over. And it does take some time and talking in certain cases LOL. So I believe its simply called politeness. Most of the promoters will already have expressed their thanks at the end of the night ie long before a review will be published on the internet. At least I do every time I have guest DJ` s. By saying/expressing "thank you" to the promoters on the net DJ`s will most of the time just use the chance to express their happiness to have had a great night deejaying at a fantastic place, to fantastic people etc...maybe even abroad. At least I do. But I am with you in that it has become a bit inflated indeed...as nowadays every night seems to have been "fantastic"..."and it was fantastic to have been asked to dj to a fantastic crowd etc"...when in reality it was just he promoter an his ten best buddies sitting togehter listening to some 45s played out while enjoying the latest smalltalk and having a pint... which again also can in some cases be very much "a fantastic night" LOL Marc

Obviously too hard a nut to crack so I inquired with a dealer. He knows about WDs off-center and jumping WDs not jumping plus Issues jumping issues non jumping Some of these issues are distorted soundwise. Non jumping issues seem to be the rarer form though non of the mentioned releases is obviously easy to get by..

out of interest..please correct me when I am wrong, but so there are WDs jumping WDs off center WDs playing thru fine Issues jumping and off center (first rel.) Issues not jumping (sec. rel.) ? If that is correct, obviously the non jumping later released issues would be the one most desirable ? Marc
