Guy Hennigan spin at Stafford. Can remember Saus spinning it as I was often DJing same night as him $100 dollars a bargain IMO Always loved the record since first hearing it.

Fully agree about Weller...he's a pop singer who chooses to actually cover a few "soul" records IMO......and badly at that.

I rate it about £200/£250....could be hard to sell thought as not that well known/popular with todays scene. Maybe time for re-activation. Know that canny Scot Hammy has been spinning it though North of the Border but rarely hear it down here.

That's how it should be IMO, That Other Place is rarer IMO as is Two Of A Kind

No cause I've only a few lps and not many of those are Motown

Got to disagree about White Man Can't Sing...anyone who's seen Dean Parrish will disagree with you There's plenty of good blue eyed soul on the scene..Righteous Brothers, Tony Galla, Intentions..... As for intstrumentals...no soul in them IMO

Had a listen to Dan's tonight and so hard to pick three from this, seriously, so many faves and records thyat have been in my collection (s) at one time or another. Kenny Sheppard...bought for £12 in the 80's off Butch. Andrea Henry swapped for Nat. 4 on Boola Boola Wade Flemmons, shites all over Jeanette But as I have to pick three only here they are.... Clyde McPhatter - Lonely People Can Afford To Cry - Amy Now mine was a pink issue and said Can't and not Can. Covered up as Ernie Andrews - Neither Will I at Stafford, this awsesome slice of mid tempo just oozes soul. Harry & Keyavas - If This Is Goodbye - IPG You can plainly hear the vocals of Harry Starr asking what he's gonna do on his own. Mid-tempo perfection, soul and then some IMO. Bobbie Smith - Walk On Into My Heart - American Arts Epitomizes the 80's soul scene. Seems to be getting popular again and who can fault it, sheer class always shines through. Great cd Dan As are all of the others too

Little Bernie And The Cavaliers - Poor Town - Ascot Cheers

I thought I had audio files of the Law-ton disc but appears not. Can anyone oblige with MP3's??? Cheers

and off the same lp "Serve Yourself A Cup Of Happiness"

If I Could Be Like Columbus Where Would We Be??????

I didn't thiunk it was that rare in the first place. Seen for as much as £150 which I always though OTT.

Luther's "Don't Wanna Be Your Fool" is one of my fave 70's tracks.

I've only a coup[le I think left to listen to :o Any news on the missing swappers Mark and Miss Goldie?????

Listened to a couple more today. First off Mark Baildon's Charlie McCoy & Escorts - My Baby's Back Again - Monument. One I've had on tape for years and always good to hear this again. Charlie pleased because as the title suggests his Baby's Come Back. Soulful and then some. Four Counts - A Home In Loveland - Lyndel Mid tempo mover and great group harmony....love this kind of stuff Cynthia & Imaginary Three - Thats What I Am - Big Hit Always rated this. Can remember getting this for the first time on tape in the 80's from Tony Parker. Presume this is the same group as the one on Blue Rock. Next was Jocks and like Marks difficult to pick a final three such was the quality Mel Heuston - Searching - Cez Vista For some reason it reminds me of the Fantastic Four don't ask why Perfect mid-tempo Patti Ward - (Girls) You Have To Wait For Love - Road Brilliant. Known this many years but totally forgot all about it. Fantastic Four - I Feel Like I'm Falling In Love - Soul Have "Sweet" James Epps and trhe boys done a bad record? I don't think so and a group I could listen too all day

Listening to the Funk Bros now Mike , seems ok.

Like you say Mark Bill Bush was £150 few years ago and with the amount of copies about now should be, in theory cheaper and available to many more collectors as it is far more common these days...in theory! As with many aspects of this collecting scene demand is pushing the price sky high for items that really don't warrant such prices. Bill Bush and the Cashmeres prime examples, both often fetching a four figure amount ($) :o Bobby Kline, Johnnie MAe Matthews, Tangeers are other recent examples as is the Hyperions, was watching two copies on the same e-bay page (highest priced) earlier in the week, one went for over a $1000 dollars for a record that shouldn't be anymore than £400 IMO, probably less with the number of copies around. Again demand pushing up the price. Doubt very much I would go out and buy these records if I had the money. To me, as good as they may or may not be, they have had their day and time they had a rest, have been hearing them for 15 years and more now. Would much sooner find a semi-known or unknown, whatever the price, preferably cheap, than buy over priced indemand records. Like I said if records were priced by it's availability and rarity then more of these records would be available to the average collector. Each to their own though

Must say it does sound good when played over large system.

Funny thing is this is big for the second time. Was massive for Gary Spencer late 80's early 90's covered as Billy Lennox - Baby I'm Lost Without You

It was a regular listing before Bill Bush's copies. Either folk have to much money and little sense or they just don't do their homework IMO.

COD's - She's Fire - Kellmac Now that is fast

and some more from KTF..... R.I.P Pete and Frank

Hope you don't mind this but here's a great post the late Frank Jackson wrote on KTF.......

I'm sick of hearing the over-rated t**t One of his tracks has been record of the week on radio 2 and it's shite Can't believe he's being talked about on a forum called All about the soul

I would be very very surprised if it is Carlena and if it is a legit one, wouldn't be that hard to knock a fake scan up. I don't know one single colector who has seen this at all. I might have to go into town tomorrow to see if the cd is there to have a look.
