  1. Never went to wigan but love this from my own days on the scene this used to get some action at the 100 club. https://youtu.be/J2-33RbgVno
  2. Surprised you can sell it, yourself f it's dodgy.
  3. 79, so Perhaps it got big after the hayday of booting, at least in 7 inch format.
  4. Thanks, for that. very much a quality, early exclusive for wolvo. I'm assuming it didn't go massive at that time, although it's a known first play. When did it become a big sound then? Not aware of a wigan boot, so did it get more plays later, at Stafford then?
  5. Just heard RS, spin this on a torch and catacombs special, I'd assumed late Wigan, or possibly Levine, but not played a lot, at the mecca. So when was this class northern outing first spun and by whom? Is Richard not sticking to his personally defined playlist, which is fine, or was this an early find, on the the scene?
  6. Couple of shots from Bolehills, Sheffield from their recent track re opening jam.
  7. Oh arh, would mind a bit of this, hope you'll take a request for your cover up ' crackling rose' .
  8. I got a bobby off here for £100 a few year back think that was the rock bottom price for such a great record, it's only risen since, seen it sell recently at £175.
  9. I assume there is no way of definitively knowing where a certain record was pressed in the run?
  10. Really interesting read, I assume those numbers are theory, can the stampers be pushed to make more copies? Does the sound deteriorate? I can imagine some producers pushing those limits.
  11. I'm still on weds.
  12. Try posting in wants dude.
  13. There are some great call's here, Eddie Parker, del parks, top shouts, epitome and superlatives, Bah, too close to Motown to be definitively 'Northern'. The okeh's again, very apt. However, I think you've missed this. Definitely from way before my era, but from that galloping piano intro that seems as though it's about to topple over, Chuck takes us on a manic ride that can only mean one thing- Northern soul. If you'd never heard it before, can you actually imagine that? it would literally blow your head clean off! https://youtu.be/IjJ8OfeeNHw
  14. What's the dead wax on those razors? like like boots to me.
  15. There's loads of records I'll can't bring myself to buy because they were so common at nighters in the 80's. Valantino' s is a good example. Few others like George Kirby, are relatively cheap.
  16. Sorry me shots of my lad
  17. Fair point Mike, I get your drift.
  18. Hate to be so negative, Nothing offered remotely does it for me tbh, I really do find contemporary releases, shallow, lacking in authenticity, and just a bit plastic. I haven't got closed ears and I'm willing to eat my words but even if I like them on initial listen they quickly fade into oblivion in terms of my taste. McDonald's music.
  19. Well I for one will try to get down. Looking forward to some quality underplayed.
  20. I've got hyme of the 7th galaxy, by return to forever band, think I've topped you there.
  21. I voted sack second rooms but on reflection, certain records, from a wide variety of genres, only work in certain settings. Some great tunes are destined to be second rooms some sounds, not because of quality, but production or just sound and feel. I've had some great fun in back rooms, spinning and dancing over the years. Long may they continue.
  22. If theyve just spent a silly amount on a record, they want to get there money's worth, it's the obsession with rarity, even if all the djs present gave a copy with them, that determines what most DJ play, ego, pure and simple.
  23. Pro and cons on both sides as well highlighted in the conversation, on the weight of it and for the reasons soulacola highlighted, I'd take pre net. tastes change, the mainstay of my collection had been the left feild things you used to be able to speculate on. Their is a value to everything now, less real shops, junk shops ect.
  24. Country boy hadn't had the attention it deserves yet, possibly due to how big his others have been.
  25. It's on Tim Ashley's FB page apparently.
