Most took drugs because a) they enjoyed them and b) they served a purpose keeping you up, not because of a condition. Because of what was taken it often resulted in a lot of ADHD through the night

I don’t know anyone who found the scene because of their condition. Those I know with either ADHD or and especially autism wouldn’t do very well in a scene where it could at times be an unforgiving place. It might be all fluffy and full of divs now but it did once have an edge to it and their were people to be avoided if you wasn’t that clued up.

Yes I forgot about that one tbh and like you say different mix etc

There is no secrecy, it even went past 6 as folk still bidding as Frankie mentioned. All the results are also posted on his facebook group for clarity. But it is very rare and taste is subjective. Rarity alone guarantees a high price and factor in the demand for both sides will mean a higher price.

The only release that is same both sides is the Soul Tribe copy, flip side being a remix but same time length. Maybe a doctored copy of one of those or a home made one?

But the highest a Reo copy has sold for on there is £43

I'd like to find some that fit inside a card sleeve too, have to trim them all.

She sang it at Cleggy and Butch showed her the acetate and chatted to her about it and other things.

It is Kendra Spottiswood (Sandi Sheldon) not Van. That is what she said Cleethorpes. I know Kev who found the acetate says it is Van?

Excellent work mate, very informative

Not sure if it helps but there wasn't many of these done and these are a later version of the white label thing that had no picture sleeve...both bootlegs btw Here's the first https://www.discogs.com/release/16252124-Various-The-Hitsville-Masters-Volume-1 More like 92 for the white and few years later for the other if memory serves

No mate, it’ll be issue 6. Lost almost all mine over the years

April the 1st was t’other day

Yer welcome and good thanks, likewise I trust. Hopefully have another to upload in near future

There is plenty to suggest he is real including what Dave G said about him. Nothing really to suggest otherwise.

Matt Sneath joins Dean in the studio for two hours of top quality soul music

Just found my scans of issue 7

I thought I uploaded an issue some time back?

No it was the lads from Shirebrook

You know my thoughts Kev, go to a venue where you can here the original or use some imagination and play something different

Why? Enough people with the original
