sure there was one on here last year, cant recall who or when, but I mentally noted it as I've never seen it for sale before either.

Probably Get My A%&e Kicked For This
Its nice to respect other people's opinions, up to a point, I agree. However, I teach, and had a 6th former tell me the Beatles were shit the other day. I'm payed to be diplomatic, so said nothing, obviously. Iwont bore anyone with a cv of my musical obsession over the last 30 years but I think its fair to say my opinion is better qualified than the 17 year old, raised on rhcp and the lost prophets. Both you Davie and Ian are better qualified than me,in terms of musical taste I'm sure. But in defending this trite pop tune, and that's really what it is, you're selling short all the other fantastic tunes that didnt have an opportuntiy to be played that night and any other cheesy night it get plays at every weekend.The scene's never needed to be accessible, we've got Simon Cowl and god knows everywhere else for that, forgods sake. It needs, what its always needed, to be vibrant, relevant and most of all underground, to kick against the mainstream mediocrity.

this is my yardstick for soulful house, cant even call it bleeading garage nowadays! At its best,house can be as soulful and sublime as the finest the 1960's had to offer

despite still hating B.S. that's some articulate stuff wot you did say vere! seriously some very well reasoned points that are hard to argue with.

I know where your coming from Ian, guess that's why your in the industry and I'm not. What is and isn't terrible production is purely subjective anyway, I suppose I meant that I'd sooner hear a badly mastered, lo-fi production with great ideas than than some of the derivitive pap that seems to pass muster.

Christ the records I love the most are often terribly produced, in technical terms, that's never been the point for me, true soul transends production quality.

Two Step - What Is It?
its a rhythmic thing surely, Clausel sums that up for me, but i've also seen it refer to some slow, often epic soul ballads, that to these ears verge on the quiet storm territory.

michigan move, guy old spin is without a doubt the best intro ever. can anyone offer any info about it? I read it was discovered with a bunch of popcorn's tape's including the actual backing track to Edwin's Backstreet, I'll have that as the 2nd best intro ever.

their other release, on heavy left, is even better, but no youtube. ten city define how good it can sound, for me.

Billy Woods, Let Me Make You Happy
I like the aristcrats but billy woods has a northern appeal beyond that, its got a commercial, catchy, edge that puts in the top draw when you add the rarity factor, both are great records but one has that 'up' quality, Hate to admit it but tonally its not disimilar to that Bob sinclair record I love, what it called? thats it Tribute.

Stafford Top Of World - Popcorn?
hardly ever play anything without pitching up or even down in some cases, stop short of playing things at different speeds, though I've no objection and I've heard some grt tracks played that way, honest!
