It was the Granada TV studios in Manchester

In total contrast to that, some copies definitely came from the Times Square records website!

Love that track "Don't take your arms away from me", been a favourite of mine since I first heard it many years ago. Never even played the other side!

Would do but it's been removed???

I think you are spot on as it does say Fee bee in the run off groove.

I know I'm p*ssing on my own bonfire but I think it's a sh*t version compared to all the others - he makes george lemons sound like Pavarotti

I bought this blind a couple of weeks back, THE RHYTHM RASCALS (WITH BEBBIE BOY BUTCH) - GIRL BY MY SIDE / WHY DO YOU HAVE TO GO - SONIC 117. has this ever been played? Side 1 is an uptempo dancer with shades of The Blendels "You need love" in the chorus while side 2 is a beautiful soulful downtempo/beat ballad which is a cross between I Do Love You and No Time For You. Blown away by both sides, seriously, even if it turns out to be a 5 quid cheapie.

Oh, THAT Tommy Keith.

THE INVITATIONS - WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME BABY / WHY DID MY BABY TURN BAD - DYNOVOICE DJ. EX+ £100 (that's way way below any book price) special delivery included pete.smith@freeuk.com

So seminal that I never heard of him in my life

Charming.

I have a recording of my dog taking a dump which sounds uncannily like the George Lemons record

I've met that chap, I used to work for a company called Music Master which catalogued UK releases for record shops, he did a US equivalent so he came over for a visit with a view of doing something combining the two.

I sold one for £25 the other day, that was really pushing it because I needed the money, normally it would have been £15. Having said that, I could have sold it three times at £25 but in reality it's worth no more than that.

Should we know who Tommy Keith is?

No, you're right, there is no "original" of Milton Wright.

How about: The Champion - Willie Mitchell - all time favourite of mine, has been since the very first time I heard it however what about this vocal version? /more/soul-library/tommy-hunt-soul-in-the-sun-cd-called-through-the-years

Thought it was an unreleased 60's track? Actually I prefer the vocal to the inst in this instance

I think it's the same backing track myself but it's got added percussion and is slightly speeded up, just a couple of revs.

It was RS mate. I was there that night too.

Whoever had mine for £350 must be cracking open the champagne now I reckon.
