  1. But you can say the same for any decade, 70s Carstairs very much different to anything before it on the scene. Music progresses, instruments fall in and out of favour, techniques change. You cannot expect today's music to sound like it did 50 years ago otherwise it is just retro. There are venues out there that play more recent things but if you want stuff that sounds like 60s or 70s you might be disappointed.
  2. The Northern Crowd still refer to 70s as modern because they haven’t moved on. In reality it is nothing of the sort, its 70s soul, 80s soul and so on modern in any genre is new, up to date or at the very least recent.
  3. There is a signed 45 in a previous topic
  4. There is a previous topic somewhere with details.
  5. Ebay feedback is for me easy, no problems getting to it. Here it might just be that the topic for the sale could take a bit of finding once a week or two has past.
  6. Pretty sure John Anderson said he got 100s of copies of GR.
  7. I’ve let Larry know but as Hadley and James Mitchell co wrote both sides I don’t hold much hope out.
  8. At a guess Hadley Murrell probably behind it in some capacity, I will ask Larry if he has received anything.
  9. a must for all soul lovers.... https://www.roughtrade.com/gb/music/marvin-gaye-you-re-the-man
  10. https://solidhitsoul.com/dellarks.html
  11. I have a pdf copy to tie you over if you want it. Sure its been posted on here in the past?
  12. But this isn’t from a major but an individual? Surely, even the dumbest can see there are no licensing issues, they are second hand. Surely they must ask for proof of ownership etc?
  13. 1st issue but 2nd pressing run, still the original whichever colour
  14. Clearly she or her fathers estate have no legal claims to a product of which the rights are owned by Universal, its crazy and I can’t believe discogs just bow down to her.
  15. It isn’t enough though and would easily be challenged. There are no royalties or any monies due from the sale of second hand records. There are no licensing issues. Neither is this an issue about bootlegging. She has had everything her fathers name is attached to blocked I don’t know who is advising her but they are clearly wrong. Sounds to be she is simply giving the instructions and the lawyers are just following them.
  16. I wouldn’t need a scan. I think if George says it is immaculate then his word would be good enough, he isn’t one of yer cowboy sellers that is for sure.
  17. “A way of life” I have a mate, old work mate, he always liked the music but never at the forefront, his brother was an old soulie who left the scene with Wigan. Last few years though he does the soul nights locally, Skegness Butlins, BISF etc, has a scooter with way of life on the side yet never he went anywhere, not even the local nights years ago, he was never been part of the scene.
  18. Yes it is world wide but I dare bet it is a brit driving the prices of these classics. Apart from a few rich ones with more money than sense most collectors use their common sense. Anyone could have offered say £75 for this prior to the auction and snagged a copy.
  19. You will find everything with Al Reed involved is blocked. She is deluded.
  20. Written by Al Reed, it is his stupid daughter thinking she is due royalties. Discogs should tell her to fcuk off but they haven’t the balls.
  21. Me thinks you know full well what an original is in the world of record collecting, what is good to play and what isn’t.
  22. Spot on Mike. We managed for decades without the stupid term. It just seems people are making things up as they go along, people who don’t appear to have much of a clue either, just to give them some sort of credibility. Can you not ban the term on here
  23. Why is it ok to play a bootleg at home? You are simply giving crooks your hard earned and more often than not depriving someone of royalties. There is no difference where you play them IMO, home or away, still the same. If at home just play the cd or download.
  24. No the latest one and in general
  25. There was an article in record collector few months ago, I was browsing in wh smith, it was about the rearest records. Not one soul record, all Beatles, Stones etc. The above type articles would carry more credibility if actually done by some one of authority. Who wrote it btw?
