Carstairs remake
-
Again tracked Houston down and he sent me a box load with both types in. 1982 heady days at Blackbeat
-
Yeah me - that's exactly like the one I cracked. Will pm ya later.

Oh no it doesn't . This was the brainchild of Cheryl's then husband and they merely used Danny as the engineer. You'll also note the Tom Tom connection. You may recall in the dark and distant days of Blackbeat I tracked down the gorgeous Cheryl and put her pic on a cover. She told me the story, by then she had split from her husband (this was 1982 by now but the sound was still popular). She also put me onto Tom Tom who was by then working with Phil Collins on things like "You can't hurry love" much to my shock (and horror ). It's a great record, and Cheryl was a great looking girl as well! Steve

They cost a fortune don't they? I know what you mean they're great btw
-
Yes all round it, filled those up first....before I started on the floor, with assorted boxes etc. Time to sell some of them label fillers maybe
-
It's so full you have to be a master in "Twister" to navigate round without treading on anything Thanks for the advice tho Bud

Itr's not that rare, demand outstripping supply I guess. Soul Bowl had one for ages a few years ago that no one wanted, I eventually got it after about 12 months in the sales box. Now I cannot find it - it's gone the same way as a load of really good records I hid from Soul Sam when he came round last year. I know I hid them away somewhere, just can't find them right now

Yes the latest casualty while fumbling round my lock up in the dark, I trod on my copy of the Trenton New Jersey's finest and being styrene it's cracked. Does anyone have a copy at a reasonable price they can sell me so I can replace it? Cheers Steve

??? Quite a few people chasing it.

Jimmy Burns'can't Get Over'dispo 12" Value Please?
Steve G replied to Jez Bishop's topic in Look At Your Box
£10-15 for the Jimmy Burns 12. Steve -
Yes I'll do that. Anyone that wants to know more about the group (but not the blue and orange releases) should check out my article in Manifesto from a couple of years back on Fee Records - they also recorded on Venture. the FEs were the detroit Emeralds backing band, largely white, and came over to the UK on tour with the Detroit Emeralds several times. I have other Fees in blue (e.g. Leo Lyons - written by John Anderson ) and orange (e.g. NOW also the Detroit Emeralds moonlighting), so this is no great 1st / 2nd issue story, just different presses with different colour labels.

Original UK release I guess Surprised he's not got it on a carver
-
My blue one has vocal on both sides but plays the inst. which is a nightmare for playing out - if they're all like that, it would explain the orange re-press.
-
Think Blue came first and it got re-pressed in orange in April 1977 when it took off at Wigan Great record by the way - the lead singer couldn't do the vocals so it's James Mitchell of the Detroit Emeralds on lead vocal.
-
Never re-pressed; they did another one on the label thats rarer and a reasonable stepper. You probably got yours at the same time as me I'd guess.
-
Oh yeah good call - it did come out twice, forgot that
-
Is it a beach thing?
-
Curtis was Curtis Anderson - same guy
-
A bit but not much. Clausel was big for a while on the revival circuit a couple of years ago. Think Mr Page revived it but I may be wrong?

Hi Robin, we'll slip up one day, but Warnock is a GOD! And 1000 times better than Peter Taylor.
