  2. Divine has moved to first Saturday of the month - next date is Sat 7th October, Memphis 68 launch party with Stuart Cosgrove and Lenny Harkins. In the event section on here...
  3. MEMPHIS 68 : Book Launch Club Night - A soulful evening with Stuart Cosgrove Tap to view this Soul Source News/Article in full
  4. Divine, Polygon Books, Glasgow City Music Tours, Waterstones & The Admiral proudly present: *** MEMPHIS 68 : Book Launch Club Night *** (A soulful evening with Stuart Cosgrove) Stuart Cosgrove will be launching "Memphis 68", the highly anticipated sequel to the universally acclaimed "Detroit 67", at The Admiral in Glasgow with an exclusive evening featuring spoken word and a Q&A session, followed by book-signing and, later on, spinning a DJ set at a Divine northern soul special. "Memphis 68" begins with the tragic death of the city's most iconic soul star Otis Redding and follows the story of Stax and Volt Records, before Memphis is back in the headlines with the assassination of Martin Luther King... Stuart will be reading excerpts from his new book, introduced by Alison Stroak (Glasgow Music City Tours), before turning to the audience for questions. At 10pm the lights dim, and the Divine sound system powers up for a club night of northern soul, funk and crossover with Stax and Memphis recordings featuring heavily on the playlist. Joining Stuart on the twin tables of soul will be legend of the Scottish soul scene Lenny Harkins (Caledonia Soul / True Soul) and Andrew Divine (The Funk Room / Goodfoot). Advance tickets: £7 (STBF) inc. entry to club night - available from Tickets Scotland, Monorail Music and The Admiral Bar.

  5. For sale: Margie Joseph "One More Chance" b/w SAME (Volt) demo M- £150 inc. Special Delivery postage Timeless crossover dancer, lovely copy - demo copy, same track both sides. Paypal preferred - PM if interested. Thanks for looking.
  6. So Pete, do you quite like it, then?
  7. But what is "the best"? Everyone on here can compile a Top Ten of what they think is the best (I'd love to see them!) - and every single one of them would be unique and personal to each compiler. If you opened The Guardian and read a "Butch's current top ten acetates" it would be of very limited interest - the author of the piece obviously had to balance things out a bit. I'd never heard the Seven Dwarfs (has it or does it get spins?) but was glad he ended on something which wasn't too obvious, and possibly "controversial"...
  8. Who said it was meant to be an "all time best northern soul top ten"? It's one person choosing ten northern soul tracks that THEY happen to like - fair play to them, thought it was an intelligently written feature. What's the famous quote? Northern Soul Top Tens are like arseholes... everyone's got one?
  9. Does anyone have a spare battery cover for a Sound Burger? Don't know if anyone does spares or repairs... It's a longshot, but any help appreciated!
  10. Do you mean the Chris King copy? Definitely came out a year or two after the original. The superb "It's A Desperate Situation" on the flip seems to get over-shadowed... https://www.discogs.com/Marvin-Gaye-This-Love-Starved-Heart-Of-Mine-Its-Killing-Me/release/8854815
  11. Still looking, help wanted!
  12. Looking for a nice copy of: Constellations "I Didn't Know How To" (Gemini Star) SORTED THANKS! Not fussed if it's a demo or issue, let me know if you can help at a reasonable price! Thanks...

  14. I wouldn't label Link Wray as rockabilly, just straight up (very good) garage punk to my ears... and mod dos play psych, garage, soul, funk, Latin, r'n'b. Would fit in perfectly as far as I'm concerned, then again i'm not a mod...
  15. The thing you are missing is... an auction sniper. And a decent night's kip.
  16. No, that doesn't count, that's retrospective regret... I'm talking about IMMEDIATE regret, phone constantly ringing, 300 un-checked emails, 200 PMs!
  17. I'm always curious what records people have sold, only to realise that they have, perhaps, spectacularly goofed up... I don't mean "20 years ago I sold Purple Mundi for a tenner and now it's worth £500" - more, you list a record for sale, sell it after two minutes and are then deluged with 100s of messages for weeks and months after and think "hmmm, I think I might have messed up slightly there!" Apologies if this opens old festering wounds, I'm sure it'll be cathartic in the long run...
  18. If you play records in public, you're a real DJ. If you play records in the house, you're a wannabe DJ. As Yoda famously said: "Do. Or do not. There is no try."
  19. £182 for Brenda Holloway acetate is cheap, no?
  20. Jazzman are making another batch of the vintage boxes, so keep checking back...
