  1. Here's the German one.......
  2. Steve, I can't get that link to work.....
  3. I'm going to Whitby for free so i don't care what it costs
  4. When you get cheesed off with the backstabbing, I think I know it all, back slapping, internet gahoonies, promoter bumping, event bombing, name dropping, pepsi swigging, moments on Soul Source....where do you spend your internet time?
  5. There is a certain tempo difference between ST's acetate (faster) and the CD version....
  6. I spoke to Stuart about the acetate at the last SITC Solid Hit Soul ......he confirmed that it was now a bit worse for wear..... I always though ST got it off Dave Flynn...didn't know it was a PS sale.
  7. Only knew him by reputation. My condolences to his family and friends. M
  8. I've got BB on Kent "Love You Baby" which features Ike Turner....not got a working scanner so will try a photo later.
  9. Would that be in sunny Thorne .... see you there.
  10. As you will recall Dave, I made some reference to this point in my comments about the "Spirit Of" room at the Stafford reunion. Breaking new records must be a thankless task at times......taking time, money and research to find something new and then "losing the room" when you give them an airing. I suspect this is easier if you are chucking out uptempo 60s style OKish tunes which people find it easy to dance to....but Dave you do not follow that line at all IMO...much of what I heard at Stafford was not conventional at all. Keep trying please.
  11. I'm glad I'm not only one making this point Martyn.....as i have said i don't mind paying a premium price from JM as I TRUST him to sell me a legit first issue in tiptop condition. If i think he or CM or anyone else is willing to be economical with the truth then I'll stick to CDs.
  12. You known he does...but if people want to pay silly money for a disco tune while he has a tea chest full of them then more fool them......
  13. Haha..how much?
  14. This was an Ebay offer for a clear legit second issue Chalky....for John Manship to defend his silence on the subject was IMO wrong.
  15. Funny Steve....everyone seems to think it is wrong ...unless its CM........
  16. I work in the legal profession so i would like to think i have a balanced opinion. John Manship posted on this subject today ...... so just when did he stop posting? And why you're first post?....Big and small dealers must be honest unless....?
  17. Really? here is his context......... "Craig Moerer is the most honest of record dealers and would never knowingly mislead. He employs 3 times the staff i do and many of these are employed in solely processing records, and to my knowledge none of them are Northern Soul experts. People who buy second issues for large sums only have themselves to blame, the info is out there to differentiate between bootlegs, re-issues and orginals to avoid mistakes like this. Equally the info is there for Craig and his staff also." Just a secondhand car dealer IMO
  18. I can see what you are saying Mark, but there is no way CM did not know that the Can't Be Still was a second issue...even I knew.....Why did JM come to his defence?
  19. This is what John Manship says "People who buy second issues for large sums only have themselves to blame"...this was about a Buster & Eddie Cant Be Still on Class second issue placed on Ebay by Craig Moerer.
  20. Should big record dealers declare on Ebay or elsewhere that the record they are selling is a second issue or boot?
  21. Why do you want to defend CM...Mark, i know you know your subject but this dealer needs to be honest or be outed.... i was amazed that John Manship tried to defend him. When i want a record I know i pay over the odds when i buy off JM but I hope it is a first issue unless he says so. i have lots of friends who give me the correct info but for JM to protect CM when he is trying it on is a no no IMO.
  22. Sorry mark but ICM he should have said on the Ebay offer that it was a 2nd issue or he is just another secondhand car dealer IMO
  23. Sorry Mark but if a "well respect dealer" does not make it clear that the record is a second issue then he needs to be outed
  24. Check the timing of my post in reply to Kev Kents post and then look at the time of yours and you will see that I made my edit well before your post! And just as an aside you can't have a basement "Packed to the rafters".....now bug off to Gloucester.
  25. if you took time to look before posting David I had edited my post so it now reads SITC and not shs.
