  1. Will do mate, fingers crossed.
  2. Looking for a copy of Eddie Parker - The Spotlights On You (Hamp-Sey Records) Your price paid!
  3. YOUR NORTHERN SOUL PRESCRIPTION https://podcastmachine.com/podcasts/4425/episodes/24755 Back with another selection of rare and not so rare Northern Soul 45's, stompers, floaters, a couple of 70's and of course some tremendous beat ballads to end with. A few notes: Kelly Sisters is a lovely clip-clop dancer which nobody seems to like except me! The Perfections is a £500 rated 45, this copy is cracked in two places but still plays really well. Walter & Sisters is a rare and almost forgotten 70's dancer originally played by John Vincent I think. Entertainers IV shares an almost identical backing track to Doctor Love. The Warren Storm track is a brilliant practically unknown beat ballad from Pasadena, Texas. Marion Love was an old Richard Searling spin at Wigan where it was known as Just Like You Said. The Sunny Boys record is another very obscure early midtempo sound, brilliant harmonies and a lovely record but sadly my copy has some noise at the start, hope that doesn't put you off because it's well worth a listen. Bruce Scott was a blue-eyed blonde haired young man who seems to have cut several really excellent singles, the track featured here was originally known from a different version played from a publishers demo acetate and credited to Chubby Checker - here is the released version, and it's superb. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = THE STITCH IN TIME - DON'T MAKE PROMISES (INST) - YORKVILLE ..... / THE MODS - DRY MY EYES - FONA ..... / KELLY GARRETT - LOVE'S THE ONLY ANSWER ..... / THE HALOS - DO I? - CONGRESS ..... / KELLY SISTERS - SOME GIRLS WILL DO ANYTHING ..... / THE PERFECTIONS - SO LONELY - BIG B ..... / WALTER & SISTERS - HOW LONG - STUDIO 10 ..... / FIRST CHOICE - THIS IS THE HOUSE (WHERE LOVE DIED) - SCEPTER ..... / THE GYPSIES - IT'S A WOMAN'S WORLD - OLD TOWN ..... / MARJORIE BLACK - ONE MORE HURT - SUE ..... / THE ENTERTAINERS IV - GETTING BACK INTO CIRCULATION - DORE ..... / EMANUEL LASKY - LUCKY TO BE LOVED (BY YOU) - WILD DEUCE ..... / WARREN STORM - THE BAD TIMES MAKE THE GOOD TIMES - PIC 1 ..... / ERNESTINE ANDERSON - YOU'RE NOT THE GUY FOR ME - SUE ..... / TOMMY NAVARRO - I CRIED MY LIFE AWAY - DE JAC ..... / THE POPPIES - THERE'S A PAIN IN MY HEART - EPIC ..... / THE FOUR SONICS PLUS ONE - TELL ME YOU'RE MINE - SEPIA ..... / CINDY GIBSON & THE TIFFANIES - I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU - GENERAL ..... / THE DE VONS - SOMEONE TO TREAT ME (THE WAY YOU USE TO) - KING ..... / MARIAN LOVE - WALK PROUD AND PRETTY - CAPITOL ..... / GINO WASHINGTON - LIKE MY BABY (INST) ..... / THE SUNNY BOYS - MY FRIEND SAM - MR.

  4. The Anglos track is Incense.
  5. She has a couple of dancers, I'm Falling Down is one, My Town My Guy & Me is another
  6. You're right, Alan Rhodes played it at Wigan.
  7. I finally found it mate, sadly it's not the one you mention, it's I Can't Stand It / It Takes A Lot (Hi Lite 80043)
  8. OK Coasters Crazy Baby, vinyl boot. Has a little bit of print on the label which looks like it came off the record above it when being pressed. If you look very, very closely, the label is indeed not perfectly round. Look in the run off and you'll see it may well be pitted, small dots. The only writing in the run off is 65L - 9290 - 1
  9. F*cking charming.
  10. It's a boot. The vinyl ones came out at the same time as the styrene ones, I've had one for 30 years at least
  11. Just wanted to see how long it'd take you to reply p.s. Ritchie Havens is fine in it's own context - which is Woodstock Glastonbury. I don't think it ever makes it as a 'Northern Soul' record.
  12. One's great, Ritchie Havens is f*cking awful hippy shit. Oh and p.s. I reviewed this 21 years ago now in 1989 and I said it was pretty horrible back then and couldn't possibly ever be played
  13. Looks great as well with the old 'swirl' Capitol label
  14. SOUL JOE CLEMENTS - EVER, EVER - PLEXIUM. Superb copy, Excellent condition, £390 (selling for a friend) pm if anyone wants it, cheers
  15. Have you, or anyone else, got any idea how that can be edited?
  16. I swear dante, there was no option for MUSIC!
  17. I tried submitting them to itunes but I probably didn't do it properly, didn't really know how to do it, they said they'd process the request but I never heard back. If anyone does know how to do this, bit of advice would be very helpful.
  18. It was the one that came out later on Checkmate, I Can't Stand It, dunno whats on the other side
  19. F*ck knows mate, I've lost it
  20. https://podcastmachine.com/podcasts/4425/episodes/24337# you can click the RSS Feeds button to download specificallt to iphone, ipod etc Soulful Midtempos & Big City Beat Ballads Northern Soul is about many different styles nowadays. Many of us who've reached a certain age just can't manage to bomb around the floor to The Jewels or Terrible Tom anymore - well not without serious repercussions health wise - so around 25 years ago, midtempo and so-called beat ballad sounds began to infiltrate playlists. Nowadays they're accepted as 'the norm' whereas back in the old days, you'd only really hear them played at the end of an evening. But for listening purposes - I love 'em. So here's a nice selection of beat ballads and midtempo sounds to chill out to. There's the Spector soundalikes from The Knickerbockers (never seen a stock copy of this) and Butler Brothers, early Detroit sounds from Dusty Wilson and The Ster-Phonics, some top class Motown and of course some major label big productions from the likes of Gwen Stacey and Linda Lloyd (sorry about the sound quality on this one by the way, it looks like it came out of a skip but does play through ok). I hope you enjoy this one! Pete Gwen Stacey - Ain't Gonna Cry No More (RCA) / Deena Johnson - The Breaking Point (Wild Deuce) / Anita Bryant - My Mind's Playing Tricks On Me Again (Columbia) / Dusty Wilson - It's Going To Be A Tragedy (Mutt) / The Pageants - Are You Ever Coming Home (RCA) / Jimmy Radcliffe - There Goes The Forgotten Man (Musicor) / Johnny Maestro & The Crests - I'm Stepping Out Of The Picture (Wand) / The Wanderers - Somebody Else's Sweetheart (Cub) / Jimmy Mack - Go On (Palmer) / Carolyn Crawford - Forget About Me (Motown) / Liz Lands - Midnight Johnny (Gordy) / Doni Burdick - I Have Faith In You (Sound Impression) / Linda Lloyd - Breakaway (Columbia) / The Magnetics - Count The Days (Sable) / The Knickerbockers - Wishful Thinking (Challenge) / Joan Baker - Everybody's Talking (Diamond) / The Honey Bees - Never In A Million Years (Wand) / Gino Washington - Rat Race (Washpan) / The Ster-Phonics - Don't Leave Me (Mas-Tok) / Mark Loyd - When I'm Gonna Find Her (UK Parlophone) / The Butler Brothers - Reputation (Academy) / Johnson, Hawkins, Tatum & Durr - Your Love Keeps Drawing Me Closer (Colsoul) / Willie Tee - Walking Up A One Way Street (Atlantic) / Marva Jones - I Got Your Number (Ski-Hi) / Frankie & Johnny - I'll Hold You (From acetate recorded for ITV, 1966) The Carmel Strings - I Hear A Symphony (World Pacific) / Roy Roberts - I Know What To Do To Satisfy You (Tina)
  21. Dave the only compensation is that you WILL find it - it's there somewhere, I do this all the time, I was looking for a copy of The Seminoles on Hi Lite yesterday and I went through 6 boxes of records, twice, I could not find it, eventually I found it in one of those boxes, I'd skipped past it twice and I just hadn't clocked it
  22. That's what I thought too
  23. Sorry if this is already up elsewhere. Same guy who was selling the paintings last week has an apparently super-rare record for sale. Listened to it, quite nice, I might pay £50 for it on a good day maybe. https://cgi.ebay.com/RAREST-RECORD-WORLD-NORTHERN-POPCORN-MOSES-/150452866905?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item2307b08f59
  24. Reduced a few of the remainders
