This just reminded me of a funny true story. A few years ago my son was at the Buena Park record show. He'd looked at all the tables & was just killing time until his wife arrived to pick him up. He then spotted a seller that he'd not bothered to check out, reason being we both knew him well, and knew he was well & truly Manshipped up ! no bargains to be had there then? But any way, he had a box of mint Amy/Bell & Mala. Think they were $10 a shot, so to pass time my son flicked through them. Geeeez !! Timmie Williams - Competition - Mala, mint !! So he pulled out a couple of other numbers so it didn't draw attention. I'll take these thanks, he said. He paid for them, went to turn & walk away, snatch ! The seller pulled them back out of his hand ! Hang on a minute, I just want to write down what you've taken, said the seller. My son had to stand there & watch as this guy wrote down all the titles....wait for it...whilst resting his bit of paper on his manship price guide By the time the next show came around the seller had looked them up...

Just hold on a minute here. Yes I did have a soul event in LA that week, with the full support of your mate Kev Murphy & others. The Angel City Soul Club had been running out there on a regular basis for some time. That week I never went anywhere looking for records, but if I had of done, why on earth would I say to your best mate that your "some kind of gangster ,crook and not to be trusted" ?? Regarding Jason, I met him once, at a record show (in San Francisco ?) but that wasn't at that time. I'd never talked to the guy before in my life, we probably talked for 10 minutes. He asked me if I knew you ? I said yes I did, he said he supplied you with records. Do you honestly think I'd have said you're a gangster, crook & not to be trusted ? I don't think this has anything to do with what you're talking about here, does it Andy ? Is this about the fella that sold me Little Stanley - out of sight loving, Out of sights, etc., etc. I know you were spouting off about that to Carl, is this what this is about ? If it is, I purchased records off him on ebay over a period of time, he then offered me a superb pack of records. I paid him for them, they turned up, both of us happy. Not once did he ever mention your name.

The first time I heard the Hamilton Movement was when Ian Wright played it to me down the phone. I can't remember the exact date, but would guess late 90's ? I picked one up off ebay shortly after hearing it, it wasn't much money. It definitly wasn't an instant hit on the dance floor. I remember my son was dj'ing at Prestwich & I asked him if he'd play it for me in his set. I think he was on after Ginger. It was packed that night. Anyway, half way through his set he sticks the H.M. on. The floor was rammed from the previous record. I've never seen such a packed floor of people empty so quick, there were hundreds of people on it one minute then 30 seconds into the record there was one single person on the floor, right in the middle. He was dancing on the spot with his eyes shut ! This is the honest truth. He then opened his eyes, looked around him, then almost ran off the floor ! When he came down from behind the decks the record was launched at me like a frisbee.

Hi Carl, Can I take : 17. Ain't That Good Enough - GARLAND GREEN (Revue).....Mint-.......£20

I thought that Penetrations on Teri de would have made more, great double sider. I think it's a very rare record, a quick look on popsike shows 4 of them & only 2 in half decent condition. You see the groovers about now & then but not so much this one. Great label to collect, the pink/flesh colour Teri de, all 5 releases are good records.
