  1. You have good memories of times gone by listening to crap pop Andy See you at the Ritz mate
  2. I'd keep the Gold Spot issue, or if you want the money keep the Gar issue.
  3. Nope, hour and half away. Had a few mates from Northampton area, Neil Smith, Gary & Floyd, Cliff Steele, Tony Parker etc.
  4. Hit reply, scroll down, click browse, search for your attachment, add it and then hit add reply.
  5. Think we'll have to agree to differ on this Simon, whatever anyone says, it won't make any difference as far as I'm concerned, IMO no soul in an instrumental I do agree with you there. Many records on the scene that aren't soul, many records are pure pop, some Jazz orietated, some have a country flavour, some even rock and roll. Most of these aren't my personal listening preference as I tend to look for the more soulful stuff.
  6. Found the ticket, it's for Castaways (Soul Drop turn on the A6), 2 quid
  7. Just worked ok for me, played them all one by one.
  8. a bevelled edge on the run in
  9. I would sooner appreciation those who really deserve the credit, the singers, them that add the soul to instrumental (IMHO)
  10. Just why is someone emotionally retarded for holding an opinion? No one is denying that the musicians are good but it doesn't make it soulful just cause they can hit a note or too. I dare bet that many of the musicians are just session musicians, good at playing their instruments and not from a soulful background, as is the case of most of the funk brothers. Jack Ashford wrote in his book that most of the funks were from a Jazz background and had never played R&B, they were good enough to turn their hand to any type of music The intros topic was totally unrelated, at least there are some vocals to follow the intro....vocals that add the soul to what is basically some guys playing a few instruments Someone send me the Dee Dee McArtur track, have heard it but just want to refresh my memory before I say it ain't soulful (IMO)
  11. The one on e-bay went for $1625. JM was £1900 I think. I think one was a demo one an issue.
  12. He did other stuff on Panther.
  13. It's on Panther. Kenny Burrell spins this version. He's the only one I know who does spin it. I reckon it's as rare as Martha Starr, if not rarer.
  14. Which one I Know The Meaning? See more demos of this.
  15. well bugger me, no one bougth it
  16. Well we'll just ahve a little arguement then I owe you a glass of water for agreeing with me As it's christmas might even stretch to some of the black currant stuff you put in it
  17. Well you've only an hour to go if you want the chance to get this "future" monster Dunno where the seller goes but I'd like to know the areas this is getting played F****** glad I don't go to the same venues as him
  18. it's true. As for the ones you gave to Nick, knowing him he'll have sold them all for a tidy profit
  19. Would have thought a few more than 2 - 3. Have seen two copies for sale on auctions in recent months, know of one that could be coming up for sale. Know of at least one more.
  20. Without going through the catalogue I'd say the figure is mucxh higher. Most of the records were aimed at the white pop buyers. Granted there are many exceptions which you would expect considering they are mostly black artists.
  21. Can remember that club, went there for a xmas soul night once. Used to stop over at some mates in Northampton, two brothers Gary and Floyd Zaboki (think thats how you spell it).
  22. Certainly got spins at Stafford.
  23. IMO Most of the funk brothers are Jazz musicians anyway. Also most of the motown output is middle of the road pop
  24. I'd have thought some more besides Pete personally.
