    I was in the Banbury branch Wrighty , and it was on sunday .Think most of these stores have their music sent in on a main server , not like when I worked in Next and you had to keep changing the cassette ....Best wishes ,Eddie

    Thanks for that Dave , was only joking about Chinstrokers , sure they take it just as seriously as we do in Blighty , and judging by the amount of Deep Soul CD's and LP's that I've purchased from Japan , there must be a serious market for Soul music over there .Best wishes ,Eddie

    No Philly , I didn't notice any chinstrokers ...they seemed to be just enjoying the music for what it is , with no politics etc , I mean whats all that about , if they aren't gonna take it seriously - it'll never last !! .......Cheers Eddie

    Was in River Island today , and was about to leave when a record came on the in house system with the same backing track as Bobby Reed " The time is right for love " [ cue 50+ bloke stunned and staring into space , thinking have I died and gone to heaven ? ] Anyone know what it is , not saying it's brilliant , but that backing track is used throughout the record ......Best,Eddie

    Fantastic isn't it Gilly , any idea what that record is with the same backing as Cigarette Ashes is ? Best wishes ,Eddie

    Check out this superb video from the 15th Anniversary all - nighter at Nude Restuarant in Japan , fantastic atmosphere and dancing , Northern Soul is obviously alive and well in the Land Of The Rising Sun .....Best,Eddie [ thanks to Wigantojapan for the tip off ]

    Brilliant video Jamie , did you go ? Never heard that version of Richard Temple / Cigarette Ashes before , any ideas ? Best,Eddie
  14. Eddie Hubbard
    Hiya Jamie , Soulshakers is on Loma , Len Jewell production , would have thought at least £200 , Deadbeats is on Strata , old Searling Wigan C/U , Valentinos has Womack on lead and Mike Terry on sax , £200? , Jack Montgomery is on Scepter , the classic double header , a Mike Terry produced masterpiece , bought mine " blind " for £4 in '79 , about £200 now .Saw a Bobby Reed last night for £400 , great Crossover flip too , oh and it's on Bell . Hope this helps ,Eddie

    101% yes Steve ...Best,Eddie

    Hi Ady ,I was only 15 when this was released , but remember playing this at school dinner hours along the other massive record of that year Holland - Dozier " Why can't we be lovers " .Obviously I was a bit innocent record wise at the time , but remember the Damon Shawn quite a bit before Detroit Emeralds version , so was Damon first ? Doesn't differ too much from what I remember , but it was popular all over at the time , whether it got played at The Torch etc would be a question for our older Soul brothers I guess ? Best wishes ,Eddie

    Hiya , think the George Jackson on Mercury is a different guy to the Fame one .Think the Mercury 45 is about £300 and brilliant ....Danny Cobus is an unissued Dave Hamilton production from Detroit .It gained release on the CD Dave Hamilton's Detroit Dancers Volume 2 .Hope this info helps and you are ok ,Best wishes ,Eddie
  19. Eddie Hubbard
    Maybe thats a kosher track then , I do know it appeared at the same time as the other tracks so was roped in with them , can anyone confirm ? Best,Eddie
  20. Eddie Hubbard
    Was it called " There is a heart " ? There was the vocal to " Rhino " - " Dreaming up a world of fantasy " and the vocal to " My Little Girl " - " My Sugar Baby " - Shirlie Matthews [ that wasn't bad as far as I remember ] , and the vocal to " Double Cookin ' " .I remember getting a list from Simon at the time 76- 77 ? Still got it somewhere ......Best,Eddie

    Thats really sad news Dave , his album on Vando would rate in my all time top 5 albums ever - Van McCoy magic at his best - " Sittin ' pretty " is a fave track from a brilliant set .Best,Eddie
  22. Eddie Hubbard
    What a legend , wrote Theresa Lindsey's " It's love " [ Correc tone ] and produced The Vonettes " Touch my Heart " [ Cobblestone ] and a million others .If only someone had interviewed him at the time ......The Chris Bartley and Spellbinders albums must be up there with the best Northern / Sweet Soul sets ever .......Best,Eddie

    Hi Chalky , it's No. 10 [ 1989 ] with Roy Lee Johnson on the cover .Best wishes ,Eddie
  24. Eddie Hubbard
    Thats correct , he did several different new vocals to Northern classics at the time , Double Cookin' , Rhino , My Little Girl etc ...Best,Eddie

    Hi guys , was browsing through some old "Voices " mags this week , and found this article on the Shotts nighters .Hope you can read it ok ....Although I wasn't lucky enough to attend at the time [ young family etc ] my old mate Rob Marriott used to rave about the scene in Scotland at the time .Best,Eddie
