Hi Angus, hope you're all ok. Greg Perry, Larry Wedgeworth, and Caviar are all 80's records !!

I always liked ' Black Power ' - at least it was a PROPER 60'S BLACK TUNE that was spun in the late 70's during a deluge of obscure poppy 60's UK dirge !

Sorting a few to play tonight, six days off work now, getting revved up for the train journey from PE11 1EY to WC1A 1DG Saturday evening, sadly may be the only representative from England's second biggest county. Recent buys, upgrades, and old favourites. 1 George Jackson I don't have the time to love you (MERCURY) 2 George Jackson That lonely night (Cameo Parkway) 3 Barbara Jones Treat me right (PAT) 4 Earl Connelly Make up your mind (Black Horse BRAZIL) 5 Intruders A nice girl like you (PHIL INT SPAIN) 6 Johnny Bristol Love no longer has a hold on me (ARIOLA BRAZIL) 7 Bobby King & Relations Don't give up hope (LUNA) 8 Earl Van Dyke 6 x 6 (SOUL) 9 Brand New Thousand years (DU-VERN) 10 Creations Just remember me (GLOBE) 11 J.D.

Enjoy your weekend everyone !

Always really liked his superb 1972 mover DON'T HAVE TO BE LYING BABE (CURTOM) - absolutely brilliant

Yes, much better

What about FEARNS BRASS FOUNDRY - Don't change it (UK DECCA only)

Always thought the name of this site was SOULsource, don't quite know why groups like Buffalo Springfield and Queereen are being mentioned, are things really getting this bad in our scene !?!?!?

Also gold paint on some US Tangerine 45's

Was there last summer, didn't find anything very rare, but a fair few £15 - £40 things, try Grooves on Market St, Amoeba in the Haight, and Groove Merchant. Rooky Ricardos shut , not sure if it has reopened. A number of decent stores in Oakland across the bay, quite accessible by train or ferry, try Hercules records, Alcatraz Ave.

Any tips on the best shipping option to send a pricey 45 to the USA with full insurance and tracking, and are there export taxes to be paid (looks like conflicting info on the internet), Thanks.

Hi, sure I've got a spare in a sales box, will have a look later at condition, etc, Best, J

An obvious cover version that I can't see mentioned is TIMI YURO'S brilliant niter atmospheric version of Baby Washington ' It'll never be over for me ', I like most of B. Washington's stuff, but this is a fairly rare case of a blue-eyed (brown-eyed ?) singer out-souling and easily out-northering a black singer. (As in the case of Paul Anka v Jimmy Breedlove, perhaps another topic on this subject awaiting comment.)

Good version (of many) of Little Anthony and Imperials, but they all pale into insignificance IMHO compared to the monumental take by THE DELFONICS !
