  1. Another one in the same uplifting bag as the above is Gene Page " Of our other days " , brilliant !! Best ,Eddie
  2. Steve Glover certainly was the man , back in the day , ran Soul Galore in Oasis market B'ham , he would take wants lists ,when you next turned up , there would be a brown bag with your wants in !! Awesome UK collection and loads of imports - he's still got them as well , so I'm told .Graham Warr records was downstairs in the same indoor market , great for all the [ then ] new releases etc , remember buying Ruby Andrews " I got a bone to pick with you on import ABC ,and Jean Carne " If you wanna go back " when they were hot , great days .Reddingtons records also made a few mistakes in the pricing , got Rick Sheppard " Can we share it " Columbia issue for £1 when it was still covered by Richard at The Casino as " Ronnie Love " .Best ,Eddie
  3. Another great story Max , it makes you wonder where all those Edwin Starr's are now , as it's considered to be one of the harder Ric Tic's , some of the prices must amaze you now ? I remember when The Vonettes were everywhere for £2 , had to pay £60 to get it back a couple of years back - great eh ? !! Best ,Eddie
  4. Great story Ian , you have a fantastic memory , hope some other vinyl diggers will come up with some equal tales ,Best ,Eddie
  5. Thats a great photo , the casino used to look so different when it was empty ,The only way I got in free ,was stood chatting with Alan Rhodes at the bar [ think Tabs was with me as well ] after the early session , people started coming in for the nighter and no one asked us to pay.I think some people used to get in free by sweeping up etc . after the early session .Best ,Eddie
  6. Hi Ian , tell everyone about the find you had in LA under the tarpaulin , you found loads of Sements of time on Sussex etc .First read this story in Pat Brady's " Talk of the north " fanzine years ago , sure it could do with a re -telling now .Cheers ,Eddie
  7. All the Northern venues would embrace technology and use laptops ,CD players etc , no one would care what format a record was on as long as they were having a great time .Best ,Eddie
  8. You're right Ian , it is a goodie , if there was only 2 copies and one was cracked , it'd probably be massive !! Best ,Eddie
  9. Hello Ian ,I first heard the Delfonics via a Kent CD of unissued and obscure sides ." Agent for love " has an interesting story , being the vocal of course to Guys from Uncle " The Spy " .In the 70's fanzine editor Dave McCadden [RIP ] ,wrote a made up story asking if anyone had a copy of the vocal to The Spy , titled " Agent for love " .It of course didn't exist , though years later people were claiming to have heard it at Cleethorpes !! The folks at Joe Boy decided to make this in the 90's , recorded in B'ham I think .You probably know this story anyway ,the strange world of Northern Soul eh ? Best ,Eddie
  10. and me ........Best ,Eddie
  11. I saw these around the time of the limited repress of the Four Tracks [ Mandingo ] and Johnny Honeycutt , in the 90's.Best ,Eddie

  13. 80 -81 , From memory , same time as Richard was playing Daybreak [ Tyrone Edwards " Search this world " c/u ] , etc .Used to have a great live tape with these on .Super rare 60's mixed with the best new and recent releases , tons of cover up's , fantastic memories .Best ,Eddie
  14. You're right , great period in Wigans musical history eh ? Best ,Eddie
