  1. I'd say Northern soul on original labels are relatively cheap compared to the 70"s values.
  2. cheers dude, daddy's Favourite, have it on a white somewhere
  3. No it was later than than that, but I am a big Victor simoneli fan so thanks for reminding me of his genius, early nineties he was the man
  4. Yeah, cause it is. Cheers pal. Need to do some diggin to find that house thing now. Have in a crate somewhere.n
  5. What the break stolen from people? It was used on a house tune that was massive in the late 90' s bugging me.
  6. it would only be ruined if you played it on a sandpaper slipmat.
  7. Couple of old digs, come to mind. First would be Vinyl exchange, Camden town around 1987. The basement was full of singles, in the region of 10k most without sleeves, many 10-50p. Loads of Motown, tune up british x2, one way out British, nothing to good good for my baby, British, ECT. Bought loads of imports blind lots of c and w, a couple of bits that later turned out to be interesting. Good education for me.
  8. Don't begrudge anyone doing it. Each to there own, but it's not an element, in collecting thats ever appealed to me, or the zest for the unheard, that's drivin the scene for so many years.
  9. If I was buying one I'd want the later personally.
  10. Suprised, that french cat looks a right dog, cant believe he was girl eye candy in the 6ts.
  11. In long term context I paid, £75ish of Anglo, around 2001/2002.
  12. Mr Manship is a internationally renowned record dealer with staff Mike. I just think it's either disingenuous or a genuine cock up, to advertise an record, I assume as unreleased? For sale, that is actually a known release on a major label. Either way if I was in his position I'd think it might dent my credibility somewhat. Maybe that's a little extreme, and my language was a little colourful. I'm sure in reality John won't be worried he's amassed buyer confidence in droves through his reputation as an honest dear over he years. However, as said, I would have some basic research would have revealed the identity and that would have certainly made an impact on how the recording was advertised.
  13. Really popular at local soul nights.
  14. doesn't do his credibility any good, IMHO. It is a fairly easy mistake to make, but then I'm not making a fortune/ living out of flogging records. If I was, I'd find the time to check if an acetate was truly unreleased or not, otherwise I'd think of myself as a skanking bastard.
  15. you can covert the file to a vecta graphic, there usually some on free trial. sizing up doent distort with vecta, no matter how large you want it.
  16. You could transfer to vecta, sizing up not an issue then
  17. you got to be proud when someone get a shot like this of your son.
  18. mandells and eddie floyd please des
  19. Sublime. Still adore this track.
  20. Hope this hasn't been posted before, I found it a fascinating article. https://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/10/magazine/the-brazilian-bus-magnate-whos-buying-up-all-the-worlds-vinyl-records.html
  21. I thought he came across well, in terms of a mainstream audience. But I've been listening to Richard on the radio for a long time. His genuine passion an knowledge puts, that dick, Charles, to shame, it's so obvious he's clueless and just chasing the cash.
  22. Don't know if this is old hat, but reading 50 shades of grey, at the moment and a major character is called Gia Matteo. Seems an odd coincidence the author would pick that name out of the blue, northern devotee perhaps?...
  23. I got a couple of Chi-lites records both on costa rican Brunswick- white! also got a Eddie Kendicks on Black Panamanian Tamla
  24. Never got the analogy between NS and Hardcore, where is the soul in Hardcore for a start? The punters into Hardcore were basically like the divs that flocked to the Casino after TOTP's. They missed out on the early and best days of house and rave and never really got its connection to the soul scene that was already there in there first place. All of the guys that got me into going the Hac ect were ex soulies, the link was far more trasnsparent than the perceived cultural link the author alludes to.
