Good little venue the Travellers. Was a resident there. Hard to make out the faces on phone at minute will have decent look when I get home. Know I was spinning the track on Frog around then, please come back, but dunno if that was how it has been edited or part of Lesley' s set?
he might have been a joke to some but he still had his voice. He was still a great talent even over weight but at the end of the day it was vegas and he was a showman, what vegas is all about. My favourite singer away from soul music. He paved the way for popular music. I've quite a few dvd's of his shows from the 70's including his last ever show.
I must have been hiding from camera Rob Never missed a Canklow and DJ'ed there quite a few times.
Can't remember the actual dates for the Aqua, but I would have thought 92/93 maybe? Did John Kingan had summat to do with 'em. They were a Sunday night session but didn't last long if I remember rightly.
PS I was given a photo of me at the Wilton on Friday from Sept '87 in Mansfield Did you ever manage to find any of me Rob? I've got 3 I think
I know all about supply and demand but I would sooner base my assumptions on other facts than often over inflated auction prices. Sure the super rarity you can't predict a price as clearly but for many many records then ebay and JM's auction isn't the best guide to a price. As I said lists, what's happening at all-nighters, the informed views of people on places like here carry more weight for me and has served me well enough over the years.
you lot in the city should read some books on economics as well judging by the mess they got the country in....or did you realise that and edit your post accordingly
So you say that the odd auction result not matter how inflated the price is the best guide to a records cost and demand? For me the actual shop floor is the best guide of all.
I disagree, it isn't a guide to demand rising or falling at all. How often do you see a topic on here highlighting some pair of pillocks who are just bidding silly on an item. More often than not if you ask on here you'd get the same record for less.
Keeping an eye on lists from dealers and what is being sold from dealers at venues is the best guide to both demand and cost.
dunno about that Ady, the cd usually goes straight on the ipod so I can get me soul fix whilst working. Spending time away from home it would be a good read too. Maybe you can do a digital download of the booklets so can read on an ereader or the forthcoming Ipad?
It was indeed the Cheshire Cat. I haven't looked for the flyer yet but I looked at the calendar Dave did and lo and behold there is a copy of the flyer on the January page of the 2000 calendar!! I will look for the flyer at the weekend!!
The Kara-okeh night was 1993 Knew all these would come in handy one day
Andy D's I can assure you isn't pretty damned f*cked, it was or is in pretty decent nick, more like ex+, both copies I've seen at Andy's.
