  1. There's a third version of A Touch Of Velvet by Sounds Orchestral on Pye or Piccadilly. I'm with you all in remembering it from the radio (I thought it was Radio Luxemburg!) but it was never a Wigan 'top' sound in the true sense of the word, it was played by Dave Evison in his oldies spot and got reactivated because of that and even bootlegged.
  2. Worst lyrics ever...

    Voices Incorporated...ok been a round a few years but only really listened to it (and bought it) recently
  4. p.s. I have packed in both drinking and smoking (14 days now) but I still would fight for a persons right to smoke in a pub or club situation. Blimey, remember the days when you could smoke in the cinema and on the top deck of the bus? p.p.s. seeing as how I have not touched any alcohol for 14 days, how come I've still got f*cking gout?
  5. I think this winter will see so many pubs and clubs close down that the government will soon have to rethink it's policy. What on earth is wrong with smoking and no smoking pubs?
  6. I know we already had Marlin but this is a good blue eued dancer
  7. Definitely never seen that one before
  8. Yeah I'll dig them out Mike. I was contacted by the main camerman from this show after I put some clips on youtube and he couldn't believe it existed as he knew the tv station had wiped the lot - he read the eulogy at the presenters funeral a while back, wish I'd kep his emails, fascinating stuff about the show
  9. They appeared in 75, supposedly licensed presses via I.L. to meet demand from the tone-deafs
  10. What about the legal side though, if I was to come on here and say "for sale, memory stick with 5000 northern tracks on" I think I'd get short-shrift. p.s. for sale - memory stick with 5,000 northern tracks on

    Pain

    Two different sort of tracks really - I think they are both great myself. Kev Roberts told me he once left several hundred copies of this in some basement in the States
  14. Thing is though, all those pink ones ares old as originals
  15. Sidney Joe Qualls I think...should be up on soulclub.org
  16. Well I'm not reducing Dena Barnes but I'll knock £25 off kelly garrett
  17. The clue was in the maple leaf I reckon. Shirley Matthews - Stop The Clock also came out on Maple, she was Canadian.

    Pain

    Theres also a great version by Linda Queen - very similar, except titled I Feel The pain.
  19. No he means the record was earlier, not the date of the footage
  20. He couldn't have picked a harder record to mime to!
  21. If you just want a scan, I've still got a copy of the one I used to have, Mick Smith's got it now
  22. Don't think he knows his vinyl from his styrene! Besides, that number dates it to 1976 anyway..
  23. You may rate them at the same prices as US releases but in my experience they well sell for between a third and half as much...don't know why. I remember buying Sam's Candian Epic copy of Major Harris off him in 1979 for £22, that was a weeks rent then...
