Blimey! thought this would have flown out....I'll take it to Burnley tonight if nobody on here wants it....

First come first served.....paypal add 4%.....post free.... Big allnighter play of the moment. M- condition. £200

Good to see you back on here....sent you a PM. Phil.

Why is it that a vinyl record can hold so much beauty and mystique as opposed to the foul and ugly CD, I've just had an hour playing and handling vinyl LP's, the aesthetic is absolute, the sheer thrill of holding and placing this piece of history on the turntable and gently lifting the tone arm across, then gently letting it fall in the dead wax.......then the anticipation, it holds your attention that Shhhh noise .....THEN THE SOUND BREAKS THROUGH...the emotion overflows, besides the wonderful musical resonance, there is the chance to watch this superlative Black object move almost to the rhythm and tempo of the song. Yet the CD in comparison is a heinous and filthy little creature, devoid of any charisma, even when I place the hound in the tray it disappears into the dark grey abyss of the machine...almost hiding itself in shame, as if it realizes that in my household he/she is surrounded by illustrious vinyl relations whom look down in disdain at this urchin in it's god damn awful jewel case............ Wonderful words Brett.....you have captured many other peoples feelings there sir....brilliant stuff....long time no see by the way, hope you are well... RESPECT.

You got an Eddie Daye & the four bars..... ..... .....I need a copy too. Phil.

There used to be a camera above the decks at the CIS nighters in Manchester. You could see the record spinning round on a huge projecter screen....made for some very interesting viewing I can tell you..... And as a promoter, all you need to do is say to anyone asking for a spot. Yes, but original vinyl only....otherwise , NO! Phil.

Adam, did you sell your Richard Caiton???? Just looked in Browny's new guide...£350.. so I'll give you double that if you still have it....I am the kind man of soul... Phil.

Yes many thanks Chalky, I just wanted to make sure it was the right tune.....all for nowt I'm afraid...DJ honky beat me again. ....he must have a fantastic collection by now... ...wish he'd go back to buying funk records.... Phil.

Thank you kindly Reg.... Phil.

Trying to plan my dates for next year and need to avoid the Prestatyn weekender. Can some kind soul let me know the dates please? Many thanks, Phil.

I've heard so many stories of collectors / DJ's selling up and putting their money into something else....then low and behold, within a short while they are back at it again. Buying back their collection, and more....if it's in the blood, you can't just give it up.....you have to have something to aim for in life.....and chasing rare records keeps you going... Phil.

Sorry, I meant that Andy might let you have an MP3 that's all....

It don't affect you the same Andy, because of the numbers involved. When you have a small nighter, with regular 100 to 200 guests, you don't need many to leave to lose the atmosphere. Especially now with loads of people outside having a smoke, and as you well know, there are only a small amount that dance all night.... Phil.

Need a soundfile of this please.... Phil.

Andy Killick has spun this at Burnley a few times.....

Think it's on Manny's rarest of the rare....

Cheers Chalky...by the way I've just been desperately trying to find a sounfile of the IDOLS ON USA.....I can't remember if I like it or not.. ....do you have one perchance? Phil.

This is a very tricky one....but the fact is that people start to leave nighters from 3am on. And after 5am the poor DJ's have a half empty room to play to....also, staff want to get home....I think 6am is sensible now....also, if the room is booked for the next day, the managment need to get some sleep, so they can clean the room, and set up all over again... ....in the old days when there was no alchohol and the venue was just booked for the one night, there was no problem. And of course we were all young, and had nothing to rush home for.... Phil.

You're absolutely right Benji, my appologies for taking the thread off topic, sorry. Phil.

You can't be serious....can you...

Sorry but I didn't record the whole tape, just the Contessa track, as I knew the other tunes. I'll pm it now...

KINNEL Paul!!!!!! agree with all you say, but PHILLY DOG AROUND THE WORLD kin awesome proper northern soul record...from a proper soul singer....that's blasphamy mate. Phil.

The more I learn about these rare records, the more I'm convinced that most of them aren't as rare as we once thought....the internet has opened up a window on the world. Money talks...and it seems that everytime a biggie goes for a large sum on one of the auctions....more copies suddenly appear.... Anyway, as far as my very limited knowledge is aware, the rarest record of them all is....THE CONTESSA - NEED YOUR LOVE - LAZ BAR.....one copy only....Guy Hennigan spin I think, and sold to Tim Brown....then sold on Tim's list.. ...but he can't remember who bought it. Anyone know who owns it now? I would love to get my hands on it.... Phil.

cynthia & imaginary 3 - 278 What a bargain... ....one of the most soulful records of all time, pure female Detroit magic.....
