Not "Blue Jean baby" by Lonette (McKee) ? If so it's an unissued MS side which Butch has.

I agree. That's what makes this thing of ours such an interesting thing to do, there's always another record out there, it never ends.

If there was anything decent in there surely the seller would have named a few as 'teasers' to attract bids.

Everyone wants to be a DJ Bob, most don't make money although some of the mega weekenders do. For some people yes, exactly the same as the Teddy Boys and Rock and Roll etc. And yes a lot of people too old to travel long distances :

Yup Sky all set.....bring it on Lars!

:lol:

Just noticed this Matt, def. v rare. Even the discos list the artist incorrectly....Steve

Cheers will do. Steve

Indeed, not quite heart failure Ian but a large "what???" over my morning tea....

Didn't see it but like you already have the Velma Perkins....Steve

I also think some of the lustre has gone out of this one, since it was re-pressed a few years ago with the reissues being passed off as originals.....and some people getting duped........all got rather messy as I recall.

Cheers Dave, might be an idea if Mike could transfer this bit out of the mysterious Teeside DJ sells up thread to a separate thread of it's own under All our yesterdays...Would do it but don't know how. But agreed, although not really a soul article, those clubs were interesting to read about. As was the bombshell of the old station opposite the Casino.....Would have been bloody handy for avoiding the 'townies' on the walk up the hill on a Saturday night.

I can rule myself out lads, as I don't recall playing anything with that in the lyrics at Barca.....

Strewth man, that's brilliant four you. I now have another gap in my Twinight collection : But great you got this....Steve

Sorry this is off topic, but quite interesting for both trainspotters and Casino goers This is why it was called Station Road.....scroll down.... https://www.lankybeat.com/Venues.html

Thanks for the clarity was sitting at work (and I have both labels I know that) but couldn't remember.....Getting older....

Nope right opposite the Casino where the car park was apparantly. Demolished in 1973.

Well spotted Miff. I rest my case. If you're lucky the buyer might find "Ring my bell" in there too!

Well he must have sold his records at some point......cos he ain't got 'em anymore. : The mystery that was Wigan Casino eh. Never seen a picture of the Central Station before today either.....I always wondered why Station Road didn't have a station

Dave do you know which came first Smoke City or Midtown? I can't remember. Had the Smoke City one a little while will have to dig it out.

This bit of the "Russ's records have been stolen" bit I never knew or heard we were slow with the "gossip".

Me for one Joan - Would rather watch paint dry than trawl through another 600 crap records / repros / UK 70s etc - there won't be anything for the likes of us in there kiddo Tezza, the seller says: There is approx 600 7" singles Fookin' heavy box to lug about all over the country!!!

I played the crossover side at a venue once it bombed and the bar suddenly became very busy! Shades of Curtis M in the vocals I thought......good record.

Yes it says Andrew Hamilton at the end Bob. Quite interesting article I thought - Joan Baez on Way Out? :

Not really common obviously, but I've seen a few go by.....am I not playing by the rules? Apologies..... I don't think the Betty Wright demo is common either, took me a long while to find one.
