I went with my 19 year old son [ who isn't into Soul ] loves Dubstep etc ...he thought it was great .I thought it was quite good really , bit of a cheesy script ...but quite funny in parts , and the soundtrack was pretty ok too .I'd only just returned from 100 Club , but on hearing " Exus Trek " it made me want to go to another nighter straight away .......Ok it wasn't a world beater , but a good way to spend a sunday evening .Cheers ,Eddie

You can get it on the vinyl edition of Soul Togetherness from a couple of years back , otherwise it's CD only I think .....cheers ,Eddie

Brilliant listening Pete , Bill Brandon / Lorraine Johnson still sounding so Soulful , ditto Anderson Brothers , though you may not agree ......Thanks for that mate ..Eddie

I saw Colin DJ at The Casino around the time World Column and Lou Edwards were popular , I think he replaced Richard who was on holiday at the time .I know Ian Fishwick DJ'd at the early nighters at the Casino , which could have caused some confusion over whether Levine played there .Cheers ,Eddie

A good point Pete , I guess we need to give Richard the credit for bringing the record to the attention to the scene , though as always there are the unheralded guys like Jimmy who find these records way before the rush ......Cheers ,Eddie

A highly informative and well written piece as per usual , very well done Rob .......Best wishes ,Eddie

Richard Searling discovered Chapter 5 in a shop Manchester where he had gone to buy the left overs from a huge haul of records on UK Demo labels ,bought up by Dave Withers , Dave McCadden and Rod Shard [ modernsoulsucks ] . Just as he started playing it at Wigan , a good mate of ours Jimmy Sheard took a copy to Wigan to sell as an unknown and was amazed to hear it on Searling's playlist . Best wishes ,Eddie
