  1. If I remember rightly the track came from a studio tape with loads of different takes on it. Again if I remember rightly it was something to do with Washpan....could be thinkin' of summat else
  2. I fully expected it to fetch at least 4 figures and I've seen little sign of a recession with some of the prices some records have fetched. It's still rare despite the 9 Chris sold and still a hard record to find and very desirable.
  3. why the surprise with the end price? Chris Anderton sold the 9 copies he brought back for £1500 didn't he, maybe he'll confirm if he reads this.
  4. yeah remember it pretty sure John Parker got it. It was discussed on here so maybe a scan and soundfile can be found when search facility back and working.
  5. thats the one I think Joan. Know it was talked about at the time, was there a sound clip with the auction item?
  6. wasn't it the instrumental Guy played in the 80's or both sides?
  7. Why anyone would want to buy Joey Delorenzo puzzles me
  8. think John Parker has the other take, just the one known copy isn't there or am I thinking of a different record?
  9. Robert Pruter's Chicago Soul is a must. I'm reading at the minute Phyliss Hyman Story.
  10. Thanks mate
  11. anyone got a soundfile of the flip?
  12. Here's what I've got to hand, anyone got the listing for Washington Square as I can't seem to find it. Any additions to those listed below????

  13. Welcometo Soul Source Cecil. Really good to someone who recorded such a legendary and revered record of the northern soul scene in amongst us mere mortals.
  14. But ten pounds for an all-nighter, 10 hours of music, isn't expensive in today's market IMO. It has been that price as I said for some years so the paying customer is still getting a good deal if you ask me. I can't afford to go out to the extent I did but I choose my noights out now rather than go out for the sake of it to a sub-standard night like I used to. I agree petrol does have a bearing on the full cost of the night out. I do understand the arguement that others in this topic are making but I wonder if they truly understand how cheap they have had it all these years and the true cost of putting on an all-nighter with a top dj line up? As for taking your own alcohol....this is having an effect on promoters with venue owners seeing what is going on and they aren't happy. The beer sales is usually where the owner makes his money, there is no wonder venues for all-nighters are getting harder to come by with venue owners preferring to make do with a "normal" night due to the sales in alcohol is far greater than if they allowed an all-nighter, staff costs are down too with the reduced hours. I really doubt whether a discount can be afforded....I don't know what sort of discount is being sought in this topic, seen BOGOF mentioned but there is no way IMO a promoter could afford that, not an all-nighter promoter anyway. The promoter would almost certainly be out of pocket. Would a quid or two really make any difference to peoples thinking? It wouldn't mine.
  15. Derek Martin - I Can't Take It No More - previously unissued - Derek Martin - After All Is Said And Done - previously unissued - Derek Martin - Baby, What Changed Your Mind - previously unissued -
  16. I've played it out but the one that really does it for me is I Can't Take It No More. Been playing this out, getting noticed and a good reaction. I put them up in refosoul last year.
  17. Ady has posted before but couldn't remember the full tale. From memory sure he said Pete Wid came from under the table as it kicked off and as he came up from under the table stuck the nut on one of 'em.
  18. First I've heard??? Well I've never heard Andy or Rob spin it. Butch and Richard Searling got the only acetates as far as I was aware. Maybe Andy will confirm if he does have it when he reads it. The cd it is on is highly recommended. 13 unissued tracks with at least 4 or 5 of them top notch!

    as they aren't on the scene doesn't worry me and if something did ever surface you entrusted with them then people would soon know and I doubt they would get much business after.
  20. The numbers weren't down cause there was no discount for loyalty. The numbers down probably because of choice, the choice to go somewhere else and the amount of venues being promoted. There aren't enough people to go round all the venues so maybe the promoters are the ones at fault, well the ones who put on a night so them and their mates can dj regardless of the damage they may be doing to the scene both locally and nationally, I've said it before they don't look at the bigger picture and don't care about it...as long as they are massaging their own ego giving his or her mates a set so they can get one in return they don't give a flying f*ck. Discounts aren't the answer it is the amount of venues, plain and simple. You don't go out for the sake of loyalty...you go out cause you want to and soul is something you love. You don't get discount down the town in the local nightclub so why should you expect discount cause you are going to a soul venue? I've said it before we should really be paying more these days not less. It's been a regulation fiver for a soul night and tenner for a nighter for some years now yet the costs promoters incurr haven't gone down, the opposite infact. I've not seen punters actually dipping into their pockets to give the promoter who has had a bad night a bit extra Why should the punter expect a discount cause they've been going out for years? I've had little time off since the mid 80's but I would never ever expect a discount because of this nor do I begrudge paying a tenner for doing something I love. It's a privelege IMHO. Times are hard for everyone, punter and promoter alike.

    Carvers

    I've had a couple done now and the sound quality is far better than the dull sounding carvers.

    Carvers
