  1. 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? Dx
  2. That's coz they're the same tune.
  3. A lot of those were not original acetates - they were cut in the UK from tapes.
  4. Roy Hamilton 'She's Got A Heart' - the dog's bollocks.
  5. The AdLibs and Slowly Moulding always struck me a suspiciously similar
  6. Eddie Carlton and Lorenzo Manley... Love em both.
  7. Very sad news - we had a lot of time for Billy. P&D
  8. Are these the guys that did Glastonbury? Dx
  9. Ooops - forgot thsee n all...
  10. I reckon it's the Funky Sisters (who are supposedly blokes with their voices processed - Brooks & Jerry?).
  11. Both Abhardi owned - my old boss used to go to the Blackpool club - they all got sold bootleg tickets to see Junior Walker at Whitworth Street and arrived to find they weren't allowed in. Blackpool was a lot more poppy from what he told me. Dx
  12. Being a mere pup of 55 it was Curtis Mayfield at Hinckley in 83 - the boss started in 70 at the Wheel. Dx
  13. Or Margie doing Originals records...
  14. Tata Vega 'Givin All My Love' for Give It Up For Love (released on single I think) and the wondrous 'Ive Got My Second Wind' with GC Cameron: ...Plus lots of Margie Joseph albums and ALL the Originals' albums.
  15. 80s rather than 70s but I would've thought that the Khemistry album's gotta be pretty high up the list:
  16. The thought of that price makes me blue : )
  17. Two classics that are favs in the Carne Whitney household (specially the notorious NYPA!)...
  18. It's on the Paradise Garage mix CDs, David Morales mixes and gets played by the likes of Horse Meat Disco so we're not necessarily the driver for its demand. Dx
  19. Would be useful to know the sorts of things you're into. Top of the list for me would be The Showstoppers Ain't Nothing But A Houseparty/What Can A Man Do - dead cheap, historically important and there ain't many better Northern tracks than WCAMD to my mind. Dx PS I'd go for Please Stay Close to Me every time rather than Playgirls Love from the Five Stairsteps.
  20. Jeanette HAS to be the worst - when I bought the last copy I had at Morecambe for £7 (the previous two I had were under a fiver) there were 20 copies in the box. I believe that Tim Brown used to have 350 copies of that dreadful Doug Banks rubbish, Dx
  21. I could certainly see Ady being a top candidate for an award for the crucial work he's done for the furtherance of soul music over the years with Kent/Modern, the 100 Club and Cleethorpes etc - however that in no way detracts from Richard who thoroughly deserves this award and is of course a much higher profile figure amongst the general public. Dx
