bernard williams & original blue notes - focused on you
of the 6 copies on discogs, one was graded F, two VG, only one was mint/near mint, the latest sale at 206 was Vg+. I don’t think the average price can be taken too seriously.

Are we ever getting the final Secret Stash "Toddlin' Town" LP
It is the lack of info that is annoying. A quick update wouldn’t be too much to ask.

Covered by Richard as Lee Moore and the Resourceful Ones at Wigan, 1981 maybe little earlier.

To say beer was never a factor is wrong. I know it wasn’t sold at the niter bit many got oiled up on the way or at a soul night prior to moving on to the niter.

To say vinyl has had its day is just plain ridiculous. Deman has never been so high and the same for the prices. There has never been so many events and certainly never been so many Djs. Vinyl is here for some time yet. All events use and highlight tne Dj to promote that event. A Dj is booked for what he has to offer, real or not, yes some are you scratch my back etc. It is a scene that revolves (no pun intended) around a piece of vinyl, not a laptop or mp3 Once upon a time the Djs weren’t named as the music was first and foremost, not anymore. Until that changes and the names become secondary or irrelevant then vinyl will remain.

It ahs just about always been about rarity and still is. If a record was considered common it was largely ignored. It was always about exclusivity. I know of records being played off acetates/emis/carvers, call them what younwish, in the 80s because the record was somrare, one only in some cases and in the hands of a collector. He gave permission to have a copy cut. You would never have heard it otherwise. That isn’t the case today with most of the records in hands of Djs and rarity not the issue it was once upon a time.

All good mate. I would be better if I wasn’t working 🙄😕 Richard is positive he played it at Wigan.

But we are ‘t attending a party or wedding where the Dj and the format are pretty much irrelevant. We are a scene based on the Dj and what they have to offer. Until the Dj becomes irrelevant then the format should and will take centre stage.

OVO is a load of bollox I agree. It is another pointless term on a scene full of pigeon holes. BUT if I am travelling and paying good money to get into a venue the last thing I expect is Billy bootleg deceiving the paying customer. If someone wishes to play boots then so be it but advertise the fact then those who are paying get a choice whether to support or not.
