  1. What the fook are you on about? What new book? Please can you make your posts coherent then maybe we would know what you were on about. Very confused of Barnoldswick.
  2. 've been to a couple darn sarf, and dancefloor discipline wasn't a major concern. I would also say it is shared by some clubs run by younger promoters, some mod dos, and (from what I've heard) some European dos as well. On the other hand I went to the 100 club for the first time the other day, and it was brilliant, though as it was an anniversary it may not be representative. Bear in mind there is a school of thought different to that at your average Northern whippet-eating nighter; that seems to go along the lines "rules are for control freaks, and they intimidate or discourage newbies". Importantly, there isn't the cultural history of "the dancefloor is for dancers", and nightclub tradition seems to provide the template. Its a particular bugbear of mine, but neither do I like the bullying or undiplomatic approach sometimes taken at more traditional places up here. It is worth bearing in mind that what most of those places have that many traditional nighters don't, along with the pissheads on the dancefloor is lots more young people. I haven't been to enough places to generalise though, but I would hazard a guess that not all the traditions of Northern Soul went South (and elsewhere) with the music. Lee, you are one of the very few people who can comment on the state of the scene, because you really do get around to a lot of differing venues. Only trouble is, you are fairly new to it, and much younger than most of us......so you see things from a slightly different perspective. Pity there aren't another 200 like you, same age group, same outlook, oh, and preferably female..... Phil.
  3. Surfice to say Phil Reggie has long since gone mate well both copies actually lol sold the first one for £500.00 way back and almost the same for the other, the record worked during the early 90's at the likes of Keele etc. as an ender, it took off for what ever reason and originally cost me pennies, perhaps not the best record in the world but that can be said for so many records that find their way onto the Northern scene. Regards - Mark Bicknell. Only a bit of fun Mark, music is a very personal thing, and vive la difference I say. I remember the first time I heard Reggie, and being blown away by that incredible intro......only to be let down by Reggie's very weak vocal. But like I said, just my opinion. It would be a boring old world, if we all liked the same things. Phil.
  4. Phil u got no soul No I haven't......but neither have George Lemons & Reggie Alexander.....
  5. Bloody hell Mark, I wouldn't of been so keen to own up to that....... In the same league as George Lemons, but not quite as bad....
  6. I'm sure there was some sort of story about the George Lemons record only coming out because they were mafia/criminal types and wanted George to get a record release. Or I may be thinking about someone else, somebody will know. He certainly has a Criminal record. Brilliant! I'm with you on this one Pete......
  7. Just checked back on 45Heaven, this has gone Anyone want to buy mine for 150? He sold 2 copies mate. Mr. Anderton, I've never met you, but would question your taste sir...well above average I.M.H.O.
  8. I'm sorry but 500 is taking the p"£s. It's a 20 pound record, a great record but 20 nonetheless. Oh well. Jim. If you have any copies for £20 Jim, I'll certainly buy them mate.
  9. Cheers Kenny, knew I could rely on you.....
  10. So what was on the single, and has anyone put the sound files up in Refosoul yet?
  11. How can you not own a record which contains the words egg foo yung Absolutely my friend, brilliant analogy.
  12. This has been blown out of all proportion. Cliff was looking for the LOVING YOU side, and asked Brownie if he would sell his copy. As you all know from another thread on here, Brownie said yeh but it's £500. Cos he won't let anything go out of his collection for less. Cliff has since sourced a few copies, and played it at Burnley last month......hence the interest in the record, and the reason Barrie wants a big price on it. I think the price will increase now. Phil.
  13. Like I said in my earlier post. If both parties have a bank account linked to paypal, there are no fees.
  14. CONQUISTADORS on ACT 1V JUDY STOKES on SOUL POWER FRED JOHNSON on SHI-LUSH PAUL VANN on CHANCE PM me please.
  15. Funnily enough they'll both be coming out of my little box to play at USOS on 19th - and I guarantee every fecker'll sit down when they do I thought you had sold the Billy Hines Phil?
  16. Buying vinyl is a luxury. Many people, myself included, have been made redundant. Everyone who has work seems to be trying to pay off their debts. So it's obvious, there is no spare cash about. When people are feeling confident in their lives, they will always buy a cheap record or two......not so now.....and those paying off debt will use their vinyl to do so.....simples. When the economy picks up, so will record sales i.m.h.o.
  17. I've only recently discovered this I have been told that both parties need to have a bank account linked to their paypal account, and that there is a limit to the amount you can send. Gonna have to look into this in more detail.
  18. Usual scenario, need to fund another want. Absolute class Detroit rarity to go.... SHARON McMANN - GOT TO FIND ANOTHER GUY - KAREN EX £700 GOT TO FIND ANOTHER GUY - SHARON McMANN -

  20. went for £1003.00 Bloody hell, that was cheap! I was bidding on a record myself when the site went down. Reccon that'll cost John a lot of money if it keeps happening.
