  1. there in the majority imho, vastly in the majority, all the rest of us just perpertrate the fraud.
  2. i think the growth in international collecting may offset the deminishing uk collecting scene, to some extent.
  3. a great quircky wheel classic, there's another version that Johnny b played at the torch revive a few years back too.
  4. I'd heard JR was a staple last tune @ london mod clubs in the early days.
  5. another really insightful read is ' a sharper world'
  6. sounds interesting, been playing a Jonah jones track off a tmg. austrailian album for a while now.
  7. that highlight the hypocrocy of NS, when it was rare they loved it, now its common its crap! cant get me head around anyone saying thats crap, still a top tune.
  8. danny rampling said he did it in the early days of shoom, with Italo house records, soundsystems did it in the the yard. Its often used to give focus and attention to a tune that might be ignored due to its lack of credibility, ie the paul anka, J casewewell.
  9. cant believe this, so sorry, hope he gets better real soon, saw Dave, return to his car as we were finishing packing up change, said he felt a bit hot, and was having a rest in his car.
  10. Interestingly no one seems to have picked up on the fact that the politeness and respect element thaty used to exist in alco free nighter seems to have, to a certain extent, extended out into soul nights where carling plays a greater role than sknf. your certaily a lot less likely to end up in 'mayther' @ a soul event than you would at any other kind of mainstream music event.
  11. grt tune but the copy I had was terribly pressed, is that the same with all of them?
  12. I heard it said a few times in the 8ts, before you could sniff out the bullshit with the aid of the net. Mind you I span I few good ones myself.
  13. think I would of sooner been at the gallery, warehouse or reade street personally.
  14. Maybe its a bit like the rumour that travolta was seen at the casino, practising and learning moves.
  15. sorry it seems really bogus to me, and I dont believe it.
  16. old style stylus's are a killer and with cause needle hiss off one back cue.
  17. good topic but havent a clue, I've always wondered how long vinyl/ styrene would take to deteriate without playing too.
  18. i agree mate, I'd throw latin and ethnic rock in there too.
  19. a friend said he's been scammed in a similar way with antique ceramics.
  20. nearly worn my copy out, the chapters on the warehouse , the paradise garage and sanctuary are pretty much definative, but you may want to skip the jimmy saville bit.
  21. just re reading peter shaprio's 'turn the beat around' the best book on the subject imho, really a great read, specifically the chapter about philly where he describes how salsoul nicked the best musicains from philly and toughned up the sound to take the rhythm sections to another level.
