is dustbin getting payed money to make the scene seem uncool, we had to turn it off when he played that Edwin starr track, my god what an insult to Edwin, hope its never released.

some like this are exceptionaly hard to spot

saw one in a box at lifeline on sat, think soul Sam had it.

anything by Donnie Elbert, that guy must of had some serious connections with a voice like that!

doesn't mean it wasnt rare Kev, people on the scene decide to off load things at the same time, once they've played them out or styles have moved on.

I wasnt around on the scene at the time all the copies of Danny moore turned up, how many exactly were found? I did read that som folk lost out big time as the first copies dripped out, going for £500, then £300 and so on. Nowadays it can be had for relatively peanuts, so how many copies are in circulation for it to drop in value that much?

I sincerely hope to of caused no real offence to you Giant, or any others, I just thought your comments were out of order and insulting, and didnt read them as a joke, maybe I shouldnt of stuck my nose in the first place, but I cant stand by and watch people apparantly belittle others, its a curse thats always caused me problems. I could go on about your apparant ellitist attitiude and how it halms the scene, but its all ready been said. I'm always prepared to give others due respect, particularly when there on the cutting edge of discovering new spins and widening the genre, I dont know you Gaint but I have respect via proxy due to what others have said on here about yourself. Right, and this isnt a dig, I'm off to to get ready for one of the finest nighters around, its a living breathing thing this scene and always about the here and now for me.

Hi mate, be great to speak to you im person, come up and introduce yourself some time they even invented a smiley, just for you!,he's not waving, LOL.

Dont care what he's got mate, bet its all on the tube anyway! Unlike loads of great cheapies! it dont give anybody the right to talk like that and before anyone says it, no I'm not the soul police!

Havent a clue who you are except a bleeding ignorant btard, i thought this was sarcasim, rather than just nastyness, Im shocked!

Ian Cunliffe, not sure if he's still got it for sale, it was at the torch reunion last year, er the proper one obviously!

Its the stuff of myth and legend apparantly, been talked about in shades of soul ages ago, and it doesnt exist apparantly.

well done guys, congrats

Bearsey youre spot on about soulies dancin to this and clearing the floor when anything remotely progressive hits the decks, it puts me in mind of soooo many wheel sets that feature, 2 or three ska tunes, mel torme and a bunch of motown, the olies/ swop shop, youth club brigade love it round here.

seen one in a sales box in the last 12 months, a gut reacion guess would be £2k ish, but lord knows at the moment.

Seans set was great, but my suprise comes the fact I just wouldnt have a clue how to dance to this at a nighter, reggae rhythms dont move me in the same way as soul funk or latin, which are rhythmically linked IMHO. Its not the quality or quantity of soul I'm really questiong but its suitability for a northern dance event.

christ me brother will be p*****d he traded me his for a reissue!

Best spots and best music I've heard have been through this format, I seldom here anything but self indulgence through the longer format spots, Whats the problem with a dj doing two staggered 1/2 hout spots, it works better for continuaty and for the dance floor IMHO.

oops duplicate.

I think looking at the average age of Northern punters at nighters is misleading in some ways, loads of ex punters from the 8ts and 9ts are off the scene at the moment, having kids and building lives. hence the gap between the young guys in there teens and twenties and the older wiganites in there fifties.

no way!!!!!! loved and owned this for years for the other side. it used dto be less than a tenner, im shocked.

the 1/2 hour spots favoured by venues like Bidds and Differnet strokes help to solve this problem and for the sake of the dancers should imho by addopted universally. It also seems to give Dj's in incentive in morew ways than one.

I never meant this to tern into a scooterist v soulies debate, in fact, initially, I genuinely had no idea that these images originated from the scooter scene. Without a doubt particuarly over the last few years the scooter scene has made a great contribution to the northern scene, musically and socially, by helping to feed some of the larger nighters and weekenders with fresh faces, often with far less preconceptions than many soulies. Cross- pollunation between the two scences has always existed and I hoped endeared respect to one and other. However they are both very different and there will inevitably be areas where they clash. what I resent is the idea that these iconic, albeit cheesey images can be used in this way. That word 'faith' used to mean a lot to me and at times is the only thing that keeps me going on the scene, yes I still believe it has value and worth! This is my musical and cultural heritage, and I'm not going to stand by and see it knocked without saying something, sorry is thats not very post modern. Keep the Faith baby, Really!

sorry guys I'd love to carry this on, as my anti scooterist tendancies grow! but I'm off on hols, in the Alfa, now thats real Italian style for you, mind you a gaggia got mor e class than...... no I wont go there, LOL.
