I think that's Action Packed Soul - cracking album.

This was the central arcade in Wolverhampton, and following that is what they replaced it with

Thank you Brian, just about sums it all up for me especially the first sentence. You'll be accused of being blinkered and standing in the way of progress next. They said that about Wolverhampton when they ripped down all the historic buildings and replaced them with modern eyesores. Progress isn't that great after all and it was better how it used to be in the first place!

The pressing of this is rare anyway - at least £20 worth

There's a record which nobody else but me has ever connected to Solid Hitbound productions, but if this isn't one - or doesn't feature the same musicians as are on those Revilot and Solid Hit recordings - then I'm a Carstairs fan. The record in question is There Comes A Time by eartha Kitt, it has no Detroit credits on the label but you've only got to listen to it to know it's a Detroit production...that sax solo, the clipped rhythm guitar, the drumfills...it's all there. Listen below and tell me I'm wrong!

I would have if it had said Olaf

Ouch, my sides just split

Ola V Harper - I wanna weep - Jewel. Someone's been asking me for this for a couple of months now but I forgot who it is - I've finally found the copy I knew I had so if you want to get in touch, it's now available

I can't, I'm banned from youtube, you know that!

That is absolutely fantastic!

I remember Ady canvassing on here asking for suggestions as to what they put out. I don't know if any of those were taken on board but I haven't bought any of the recent releases because I either don't know the tracks or I don't like the tracks, I hope they do well but I thought some of the selections were baffling.

I FOUND ANOTHER LOAD OF RECORDS SO HERE ARE PACKS 5, 6 AND 7. I PROMISE THERE ARE NO MORE AFTER THIS.

Can't. I feel the same way about Margaret Thatcher...

Take your pick. Sounds like they asked the studio janitor to stand in for the real singer. it's pointless us debating this really because I've despised this record for over 30 years and I'm not going to re-evaluate it now!

Everyone sticks up for it but nobody can explain whats actually good about it. It's got one of the worst vocal performances I've ever heard.

Here's a pack of 50 UK LABEL Northern Soul and 60's club classics. The majority are 70's issues. A few are VG but the majority are EXCELLENT condition. These are for sale at £100 plus £10 postage (UK only). Overseas postage would be at least £20. So that's 2 quid apiece, if you don't want to keep them, sell them for a fiver each!

Another originals list later in the week...includes Betty Lloyd, Claude Huey, Foxes etc

Why don't you just attempt to explain what it is that you like about this record and exactly why? Having heard it thousands of times (each time I hear it it gets worse) I still haven't discovered one redeeming factor. Apart from the run-off groove. Though being a superior being i.e. someone who attended the Mecca, you'll probably put it down to an ex-Wiganite just not understanding proper soul music, right?

Had a mint minus Johnny Moore demo on Ebay last week, only went for something like £29!

If I ever won the lottery I'd make it one of my missions to buy up every copy of the Carstairs record and when I'd got every copy I'd hold a huge bonfire I'd burn every single one of them, laughing hysterically as they go up in flames and I do the world a favour. Worst record ever.

Well yes, thats a great record - but the others are terrible. I do like several 70's records, honest - Towaway Zone, The Nights, High Voltage, Rock Candy, Love Factory that sort of thing just not the disco type

Well why don't you buy it if it's so great, I've already got 3 copies

It's a good job someone copied all those clips I sent up...this was one of them...absolute masterpiece and in the top 3 things I ever posted I reckon.
