  1. Yes D the Jap lp is legendary...in the eighties we all had to make do with the Roy Budd rEly 7 ts compilation lp.The Carter 45 orig Pye 45 can be found with and without pic cvr.The other chased after 45 was Frog with the Psychomania theme on That UK early seventies label that had Tony and Tyrone on it..I'm.still after Witchunt.The music was dine by Soundtrack composer John Cameron who released the Afro Rock lp on Kpm
  2. I have this one Dave.The Get Carter theme was released as a Pye 45 with pic cvr.The track on this lp is based around 30 60 90 by Willie Mitchell.You have the first pressing there..it was later released on Windmill.Didn't know it was recorded st the Mecca though.
  3. I wouldn't mind meeting other collectors to trade/swap but there's never anyone wandering round with 50 count original boxes anymore.....if you do go through a box it's usually filled with boots/pressings .Did some trades with Keith Williams at the last Stoke and will be there with a 50 count box again tomorrow.
  4. I run the Northern Noise mini niter at the Kursaal in Southend...next night 8th Dec 9pm-4.30 am....all on original vinyl. Guest deejays Anton Ludwig and Dave Evison at the next one...i have recently had some master tapes transferred and have an exclusive storming version of Money Won't Change You which will get an airing....there's a great crowd and a mixture of oldies and underplayed sounds.The xmas event is the busiest with about 150 plus in.
  5. Boots were the unauthorised release of rock act gigs or rare recordings.....pressings were the unauthorised releasing of soul stuff.....reissues are the authorised release of already been issued material.Anybody got any Kornyphone boots????
  6. I want a ticket now and ....straight to Euston for The Ritz
  7. I first heard tittyshaker in 99 when Josh Collins and the Fratshack boys were putting on.events....goes with the Wavy Gravy lps
  8. How much does this go for...I heard it played in Cologne last weekend.Not really my cuppa t but I've 2 copies on the Al tog in the boxes along with a copy of Time and Time.
  9. I'm into uptempo northern and not just oldies...if you treat it as if you are going to an across the board soul gig ...fine but don't be disappointed if you don't get a night of Court Davis Johnny Praye Yvonne Vernee Jesse Davis etc
  10. Was in Cologne on Saturday for Soul City....I'm not an across the board person but I heard stuff from earl r&b,seventies,funk and a few oldies all on ovo....on the decks The Phonetics,Joe Jama,Ujima,Parisians (this was played in Vienna when i was there earlier on in the year) .I finally got around to meeting "the open minded euopeans who have no baggage".They are good at promoting the sounds they spin with cd giveaways etc.There's a lot from a mod background and others who came from the funk scene.It's very young, no balding 50 year olds or beer bellies either and no record dealing i could see. There's no real competition either so they are not competing with a load of other venues and it's great to see they have a passion for original vinyl. A great night out.
  11. Re Terry Callier....he is a jazz artist with one northern soul record with Look at Me Now.Seen him a few times in the acid jazz boom.Imho some of the dream records are overated in the other thread.My proposal sounds like a frat record to me with cheesy farfisa...
  12. What was the Nationwide feature??...I know they did a feature on the scooter rally at Scarborough in 77 on a feature about bank holidays.If youre talking cabaret always preferred The Grumbleweeds,Peddlers and Black Abbots (yes The Painter but She looked My Way aint bad !)
  13. I remember Redcar in 85......there was a full on northern niter ran by the allnighter club of great Britain.Most of the mid seventies northern scooterists were all into northern
  14. I'm off to Soul City in Cologne next week....be interesting to hear what gets played there.
  15. Would love to see going out again.....i remember having the hots for a girl in braces on it....funny things you remember.
  16. Some channel should show the Out On The Floor play from 79/80...or was it later..loads of Grapevine music (btw found my copy Pete).My memory going back now but wasn't there a geordie tv series called Going Out that had a character that was into northern..this was 80-81.
  17. What programme was it? Ive got the footage filmed at he Dance Chase Clapham with Keb...i think from memory it was a Sunday morning show called Network seven...it must have propelled Jimmy Soul Clark Sweet Darlin sales up as i went and bought one straight away.That footage isn't on youtube either
  18. Was in Brighton a few weeks ago and theres one of those seventies pvc lp boxes with the 2 staples each side so i thought..........so i pick it up and a load of 78s come dropping out....oh dear 7 cracked 78s..........but there was a load of music library 78s behind them all on vinyl Chappell etc ....i felt so bad i bought the lot at £2 a pop.
  19. Remembered the other bit of tv...Hearsay on channel 4 with Shaun Gibbons,Searling,John Vincent and Levine ..Gary Crowley narrates and its footage from Morecambe.Some good footage of dancers and The Champion/You Want To Change Me/ Remember The Feeling all get aired.I'm sure I have it on video.
  20. Magic touch had massive exposure on the TV...who can forget the first few bars and The dj with a tache(Hennigan) drawing off a fag on Whistle Test on the BBC....camera to decks..and were off.I have the versions by Triangle and Bobby Fuller Four but you can't beat Melba's.Here it is...these were times with little tv exposure.I can only remember a piece Dahi Behr did and also the sat early evening music show that did the feature wth Remember The feeling/The Champion....so any music show was being watched by a large audience....pre sky/internet.
  21. I had a boot of this (according to Manship's guide) so bought an original from Shifty.Turned up without a red stamp.I was led to believe that only red stamped demos were pukka.I was put straight that there are demos without the reds stamp.Put it next to my boot and you can tell the difference....so the red stamp on demo only is a red herring.
  22. You can buy this on dvd..........he also does a singalong version of This Land with Jerry Lee as well
  23. Her head was not stoved in (stoving is usually caused by a hammer/similar object and not a glancing blow)....she has received injuries to the right hand side of her face which is conducive to the van being driven with the prostitute in the passenger seat and the left wing mirror hitting her.There are still questions as to why there are no mud marks/dirt on her clothing or signs of tears/rips in clothing as the prostitute describes the area as waste ground and describes the body being dragged/moved.The body is found quite far from the road as can be seen.This is still an open case unles Freddie Patel puts it down to natural causes..but George should be concentrating with the Soul Police on the large bootlegging problem the club has.
