Is it true that the rip off of Johnnie Taylors -What about my love was voted number 1 single of the year a couple of weeks back-?

Always loved soul music and once tried to get into the Wheel when I was 12 with no sucess. Few years later went to a ballroom dancing hall (Joe Turners) in Walkden where the owner would put on records that had been brought in. Met a Girl called Beverly Griffiths and I was "Ten miles High" as they say- God its so long ago. I think some of tunes were You touched me- By Judy(Cannot remember last name) on Sun Records, Compared to what- floods party and loads of others Im too old to remember. That was it Gave up in 1979 and rejoined 1999

I moved to Scotland in Aug 1987 as I thoughtthe scene had died some 5 years previously- Obviously not and I blame Pete Smith for it 6years ago having a record site and i typed in Northern soul and look where it got me again!

This was 20 pound on manships site 9 months ago Ali Duff even gave it away as a present to John weston

Well Ive just returned from New York where Manships price guide is well and alive. The problem for me is that if it werent for our scene these records would be worthless(and crushed) and as this was a predominantly Uk scene it smells of Taking advantage which is fine if you think its a free for all anyway! Do you think I could sell a copy of Chubby Checker to an American for 1000 or even 500 dollars- I think not Its like selling ice cream to eskimos its a totally atificial economic sytem we are using for the host nation then to charge us our local rate if you get what I mean. In other words its worth bugger all there but its worth a lot here!

Sebastien- The reason I asked for this was I met up with Peter Brown last week in New York & he said he had lost his original tapes. I dont have the capacity to download this onto cd as i only have email at work. Peter also does not have email but gave me a fax number. Would it be possible for you to download this onto cd and I will pay you for it. regards Steve

- I am looking for acopy of the 2nd single done by four below zero after my babys got ESP. I want this as Peter brown of P&P records has lost the original tapes and wishes to get hold of. I also want a record by henry brooks if you can help. Cheers
