Because it's blues and rock & roll thats why, it's NOT r&b and it has no soul whatsoever. Thats why

Thanks Rach. That's a great record but what it has to do with soul or northern soul, I've no idea. Well I have - it's got nothing to do with either, it's a 50's blues record. Good though.

Is there an audio of it anywhere, don't think I've heard it

Just shout if you ever need any programs or serials

Dan, have sent you serial numbers for latest version of Polderbits

The latest windows media player is very good for recording off cd's, it converts to WMA but if you download a prog called Easy Audio CD Ripper it easily converts wma to mp3 or whatever you like. or I could send you the program

The track at the top was Ken Boothe's version of Moving Away (Kenny Lynch on HMV) .. on my copy it actually has the title Moving Away but I didn't believe it because reggae titles are wrong 50% of the time...I thought it was "I've got the power to lead you through life"

You know what, a lot of the foreign skinheads actually like this record! rare black label I see

Problem was, daft as it seems, I couldn't work out what the title was!!

Been doing my head in for about a week and it finally hit me this morning what it actually is...I thought, I've heard this somewhere before, just couldn't place it (or the song title), I feel a right dummy now p.s. it's reggae

Sorry, just remembered, I've got smallpox and it's catching...

Never mind those, just come round and have a gossip

Yeah it was actually, I just bunged it on one of the other dvd's as a 'secret extra'

What's a wire lad???

Was played at Wigan as well, still have it on tape from mid 1976 at Wigan...great record! See, uptempo 70's with a 4-4 beat is ok...

Us West Midlanders are constantly getting the piss taken out of our accents. I wouldn't ban anyone for it though. Having read Vic G's original piece, I don't think he was being intentionally nasty at all.

Anyone ever heard of a video called Motown Time Capsule? I picked it up from a boot sale recently, it's a UK release from 1986 on the CIC label. Basically it goes year by year through the 60's with one track representing each year and matches film of that particular year to a song. So with 1960 and Shop Around, you get film of consumer products etc, and it goes through the major and minor events of the decade all set to Motown tracks, plus footage of the artists as well. Can't say I've ever seen this before - has anyone else?

I never thought about categorising it - it's just a great record with little of the elements that make me detest modern so much.

Amazing isn't it, that's been on my list for 8 months, nobody wants it, so I sell it as part of a job lot for bugger all and then I see 2 requests for it! Great record....he's Johnny out of Frankie & Johnny on Decca

Strange question.

Hold up. So if someone rings me up and says can you do so and so on a single and I do it - thats the same as taking all the product from kent, Goldmine and whatever and advertising it on Ebay is it? Enough, I've got a load to do today and can't be bothered arguing.
