  1. Greedy b*stards some of them. some not happy with doubling their money or a bit more, some want five times the price one record was still available for on the labels site. Buyer often at fault but it is simply exploitation in some cases.
  2. Sooty was obviously in his own little bubble and oblivious to what was happening either elsewhere or around him. He hasn't listed one "newie". All had been or were being played by others. Many had been dropped by nighter DJ's, well the more forward thinking. He obviously has a different recollection of the scene than others and he seems to think there was only him out and about every week?
  3. Nice one mate see you there
  4. Don't forget Rod was carrying on the excellent work of Gary Welsh at the Canal Tavern.
  5. The Originals is fantastic, played it out in Doncaster last weekend.
  6. I was a great time for soul around South Yorkshire around this time, especially across the board soul music, no boundaries. Canal Tavern setting the standard and Pitches and The Phoenix following suite.
  7. seems the only thing people use these videos for is to take the p*ss so a bad thing in that respect.
  8. The LP's if stopping I use really useful box https://www.reallyusefulproducts.co.uk/uk/html/onlineshop/rub/b35_0litreXL.php Make sure it is extra large with the deeper lid. They do them for 45's 100 and 200 count box and also for cd's.
  9. Yes mate, know its a different production and the organ missing, I was being lazy I guess with my typing!
  10. Cheers appreciated, link to those on flickr. https://www.flickr.com/photos/crosseyedbear/sets/72157636285503745/
  11. I have a few, some already scanned and on my flickr page
  12. Thanks mate. Trying to get scans of as many venue flyers from 80's and 90's as possible.
  13. Any chance of a scan of the flyer?
  14. I remember that night, Ozzie getting a slap/into a scuffle over an incident with talc . I'd had my Kurt Harris a while by then.
  15. I've never found any evidence other than someone's word that it was played and by Keith, was also told Ady Pountain played it but he flatly denied this saying he couldn't stand the record It was either covered up or just uncovered when I got my copy, be about same time as you I think. I also remember you playing the Escors then lending it to Rob to never see it again
  16. I got my copy from Adey Pierce. Didn't know of any others for sale at the time. it was also played at Stafford, Keith Minshull I've been told.
  17. He was great at Cleethorpes.
  18. page four, few posts down, Butch confirms it was Soulmates as he and Tim found it Stateside.
  19. There's an earlier one with Butch contributing. Had quick look but can't find it.
  20. The price dropped to half what it was. Issue the harder in my experience.
  21. There was a previous topic about this Jerry, might have been me that started it about the Soulmates, saying it was a Gary Rushbrooke spin. Dave originally disagreed and said it was Green Grunchons but Butch replied that Gary played the Soulmates and gave a bit more info.
  22. Soulmates "Sock-in-soul" on Double Soul
  23. It's the same record as the Green Grunchons but a different artist and title, it's on tip of me tongue.......
  24. I will rub it in a bit more, Rob Smith had loads of them at a quid a piece
  25. Vinyl will be fairly flexible with a moulded label, you can not pick the edge of the label with your nail. Styrene isn't flexible, it will break if you try to bend it, very brittle. The label is stuck on and you can pick the edge with your nail.
