  1. Mint one on discogs this year for £2229 previous one VG+ £1245, US grading so EX here
  2. I shall be cancelling my subscription before next month. For ever one good show there are a dozen crap ones and I rarely watch it now. Every time I take a look I find little of interest.
  3. I would imagine you would go through the representative body for whichever country you reside in to license others work, in our case in the UK the PRS, they have according to their website agreements with over 100 countries.
  4. Mixcloud for some reason removed last weeks show, citing breach of copyright, onlhy been posting the show for about 6 years 😕 Here is a new link....
  5. The difference between the use of sample and an interpolation explained... https://help.songtrust.com/knowledge/what-is-the-difference-between-a-sample-and-interpolation
  6. Well well, wasn't aware of that but then again I rarely look at ebay because of all the boots and carvers on there
  7. Easy 600 Rod. Not aware of a boot, maybe a carver?
  8. course I'm old enough, we have and have had a pretty OTT one in Chesterfield when it came to Northern Soul niters
  9. A scene full of divs and johnny come lately's, how can they not know you mate? Probably done more venues than most! Newcomers to a venue were always viewed with suspicion once upon a time, usually cause they were thought to be the squad 🤣
  10. It's nice to see soul and disco top of the charts but I disagree with the use of the original in whatever form without recompense to the original copyright holder.
  11. Well done mate on the ton, quality all the way!
  12. Some Detroit magic on offer in this weeks show with Rob Moss joining Dean in the studio for some unreleased, alternate takes, instrumentals and tasters of what is to come at Hayley records in the future.
  13. You have some of the best people on the scene but we also have some of the worst. We have some of the friendliest but also some of the nastiest. The scene has always had every element of life. It has people you want to talk to and associate with, it has people you are wary of and people you want to avoid. It has more than its fair share of gossips, tittle tattlers, grasses and n'er do wells, thieves and whatever else folk in everyday life get up to. The scene of old always had an edge. You stood your ground and gave back what you took. If you experience unpleasantness go somewhere else, it will be their loss. Not everywhere is like the venue in the Op, there are some excellent venues with excellent people running them and attending them.

    All the companies used recycled vinyl. When making the biscuits, all the off cuts, leftovers would be recycled. You can hear it in records from majors to minors when the oxygen gets in the mix.

    when you recycle you get oxygen/air in the mix and that can be heard as noise on a recording even if it is mint condition. It all depends on how good the process is though.

    I doubt a bootlegger has the tech, the know how or the inclination to do such a thing. The added cost would be quite large too, not just the recycling but the expense of having to buy 100s or 1000s of 45s to recycle.

    I used to play this at early Lifelines

    Something that has been stored away in a box for 50 years will look different in colour to something that hasn't, even if well looked after.
  19. Cheers. They are instrumentals of course but if they were a true instrumental I think we'd have a lot more going on, extra fills from the drummer etc rather than the laying down of a tightly scripted backing track. Think I read by 1964 the musicians and the artists were working seperately so yes probably 1963 was the beginning of the end for the full studio.
  20. Who is the major compiler just to add some context to your answer. Isn’t 1964 when the step from recording as one in the studio began to come to an end. like Ken I wouldn’t class the backing track as a proper instrumental, just the same as the isolated vocal isn’t acapella
  21. Chalky replied to Steviehay's post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    Even if they are they only last so long before new ones need making. But taking all assumptions into account, you have to assume they also have old stock of labels which i doubt very much.
  22. Chalky replied to Steviehay's post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    They never will either. Everything is different, paper, inks, vinyl, printing methods etc etc….. They might get close but something will give it away. If they are unopened stock they will look like new just like when the lot from the owners estate was found. Everyone was saying all the releases were fake then. Every chance they sat on a box or two waiting for the price to rise.

    Shan’t miss them a second time. See you there.
  24. I'm sure it was played at one of the Lifeline Weekenders? Extremely rare.
  25. Not sure, there are conflicting accounts, some say not and performed as Deliliah Moore after a break and marrying Gerald Moore. She was however in the Triumphs, not seem much to suggest Delores was the one in the Triumphs.
