  1. Ah ... those qualifications
  2. Lessons in NS dancing??? So many different styles! What qualifications does this guy have to give lessons?
  3. I want equal first shout, I want equal first shout, I was born on the same day as him and I want equal first shout! Shoulda bought this when it was £150. The dodgy boot fades out before the end and the sound quality isn't that good. Michigan Move clearer sound quality. First heard this at St Ives - totally awesome. Fave tune * instruction left to play at funeral.
  4. True. Think one of these went on Ebay for about £60 last year.
  5. Second that emotion Can't say same about pics Wedge hair was all the rage back then Remember:- Danny Huff in Ravel loafers, way big baggies Tony Galla blasting, peanut duck etc and Keb playing the Topics. Remember one night stopping the old Fiat Mirafiori, picking up a flashing traffic lamp going to the nighter, coming back and (for a psychedelic laugh) replacing in the same position Oh to be n n n n nineteen again!
  6. Don't be surprised if this gets pulled, guideline - links to open bootlegs etc
  7. £10 buy it now + £2.50 p&p. Naughty chancer
  8. I saw some of this the other night. Quite a good show, nice Hammond sounds & Zoot Money on backing vocals
  9. H.D.H faves, but Barrett Strong & Norman Whitfield deserve a mention I think
  10. Ah furry muff, thought you could have been takin the pith You'll be really interested to know that for the intro on that track they purposely dropped a full tray of glasses on the floor I'll get me coat
  11. Cackin up? Freudian slip there John
  12. Yeah, can't be bothered to report them anymore, just delete them. Ebay never email on account detail. Being in sales it's a real irritant to see an inbound email and think I wonder if that's a deal conf, only to find out it's those daft b#stards :angry:

    Madness

    This is a bit like Eden Kane - A new kind of loving on Decca. I like (and have)both, have to say. Although I was happy with the tenner Stardust thing for LT, wouldn't pay big money.
  14. Can understand Earthquake not being everyone's cuppa tea. It is early, but I like that sort of stuff. Paid £90 for a demo, 'clicks' were so bad, had to get a refund and paid £125 for the yellow Epic issue. I'll save you posting "£125 for that turd" or sim. Never heard it played out. However You shook me up is a power house, it has balls equivalent to that of Gene Toones, or Soul Joe Clements (another record you hate if memory serves) imo.
  15. Oh yes he can. Chuck Jackson is great, no doubt about that. Was dancing to the alternate 'hand it over' last night, fantastic. Roy the boy on the other hand, as good if not ahead by a nose imo. Earthquake is great, managed to pick up an Epic issue of this from Manship. Also you shook me up demo from Andy D - brilliant record. As is Reach out for me, Crackin' up, Panic is on, Don't come crying to me and I also like the latin-esq 'She makes me wanna dance.
  16. Yes peaceful day in watch footie & listen to sounds, in the build up to Scenesville. In the living room; Fabulous Downbeats - Life goes on Volumes - A'int gonna give you up Solomon Burke - Cry to me The Group - The light of day Marv Johnson - Come on and stop Ben E King - I can' break the news to myself Millionaires - You got to love your baby Geno Washington - I'll be round Deon Jackson - Someday the sun will shine Moments - You said Rivingtons - I love you always Major Lance - Since I lost my baby's love Detroit Soul - All of my life Betty Everett - Getting mighty crowded Jackie Wilson - Just be sincere Judy Hughes - Fine fine fine Barbara Long - We call it love Roy C - Gone gone Showmen - Take it baby Peppermint Harris - Wait until it happens to you
  17. Wow! Hats off to you Ian, what an admirable post.
  18. Marvin Gaye, David Ruffin or Edwin Starr. Nice selection was interested to know. Marvin #1 best selling male artist on Motown. David Ruffin, lead of best selling male group on Motown. Edwin ... say no more
  19. "And whenever I lay me down to sleep I pray the lord your soul to keep and bring it on home safe to me now" Whoss not to like? Fab intro, catchy lyrics, as Pete-S said brilliant as a northern soul record. One more thing, (validating) member russ winstanley1 - his fave record. Let's wait and see what he's got to say.
  20. Liking your opinion Mikey
  21. Andy, how you can say that mate, I just don't know. I would rate Jackie in the top three soul singers of all time along with Otis and Sam Cooke. Maybe Solomon Burke in Fourth. Just quality vocal, showman, dancer - he had it all and was a pioneer. Would be interested to hear your top three, if you have faves that is.
  22. I didn't think it fell flat Dan. I thought it was hilarious!

  24. "Fifteen years after Ronnie McNeir released his 'Love Suspect' album on Expansion Records (1987), we comemorate the Detroit soul legend¹s new status as official new member of The Four Tops. Since the passing of Lawrence Payton, Ronnie McNeir has performed internationally with the Tops adding his own magic to the veteran soul group". ?
