Only met him once or twice myself - but his legend and track record stands for itself.

A sad loss to the scene, very best wishes to his family at this tough time.

Benny Hill theme tune played at 33 1/3.

HOW much for Bobby Thurston ????? Still I wouldn't sell it.
We've got the Choker Campbell album too - but that's Pete's.

David Rhodes 'Hung Up In Mid Air' on Chi City which appeared in 2002 . Wasn't Chi City an Ian Levine label (? ) but not sure if this 45 fits the 'taylor made'  scenario?

2016 then saw a re issue via Record Shack with a 'disco' remix on the flip . 

 

Absolutely superb record.

I think we all know who's been responsible for both the best and the worst tailor mades on the scene.

My condolences - though I didn't know her - I understand the hole she will leave in the lives of her friends and family. Dance on sister.

Just to let everyone know that the PM showed it to have been a died of a massive left ventricular heart attack brought on by very serious ischaemic heart disease and artherosclerosis - GIVE UP SMOKING NOW.

Thanks for the kind words everyone - I am utterly bereft and without hope now.

So did I but he was dead serious - he just wouldn't have it, did my head in. Dx

On the subject of strange... I remember having a fruitless argument with Matchy who is utterly convinced that Eddie Holland and JW are one and the same  - with crazy comments like 'no body's ever seen Eddie Holland live' and me saying that Brenda Holloway sees him every Sunday at church falling on deaf ears.

That'll be the third time it's posted then...

Job to remember but it defo had a bluer label than the one pictured (though that may just be a duff scan).

Dx

Mine had/has (not sure if I still have it) labels the same as above but a different version - indeed only knew my version which I at least think is much meatier and better.

Dx

They don't get much better than this:
 

Why are people not as pissed off as me at a classic like PR (along with the innumerable others that, unlike this, they can only have come across by exploiting Northern discoveries on compilations) be plundered to be flogged off to the ignorant masses who don't even realise they're listening to rip offs?

a chap that i know and and a few others on here also know him, purchased a load of jobete acetates from pete lowry in the late 80's early nineties? reportedly in that bunch was a 10 inch acetate of frank wilson,the acetate had the instrumental and 3 mixes of the tune,it also came with the sheet music and notes? he was invited onto the richard searling show to play the acetates,i didnt listen to the show so i dont know if the frank wilson was played!

i purchased a few acetates from him in the mid nineties that were defo originals...patrice holloway for the love of mike,brenda holloway lonely boy,and a jimmy ruffin and something else i cant quite remember!

if it does exist,then that is a serious item!

 

 

A lot of those were not original acetates - they were cut in the UK from tapes.

Roy Hamilton 'She's Got A Heart' - the dog's bollocks.

The AdLibs and Slowly Moulding always struck me a suspiciously similar

Eddie Carlton and Lorenzo Manley... Love em both.

Very sad news - we had a lot of time for Billy.
