Sorry but disagree with the PR bit, if you knew anything about him you will know his first love is soul so I don't really think at this stage of his life he would let PR advise him, more the other way round I'd think

Can't wait for that one Barry, I'm number one Lenny Henry hater

Yep sure is Barry, whatever floats your boat eh?...and she does!

Whatever your views on Rod Stewart is your business, if you don't like him fine but let's look at some closer to home facts. He, like all of us on here is a soul fanatic, always has been since his mod days and still is now, his brand of rock and soul appeals to millions of people, me included. He is a champion of black RnB American soul artists who, just like us inspires him every day, he loves the music, and yes has made a lot of money out of re-creating songs from the golden era, we forget that most of us that are dj's do the exact same thing every weekend but the money is crap compared to what he gets Whether or not you like his singing is immaterial, his homage to his beloved soul music is undeniable. His song "The Motown Song" might be loathed by many on here but what other artist black or white has paid respect to that great institution?, he was very passionate about getting a song about it written so he could pay his repects to it, and yes once again he made a few quid out of it, so what? He is also Scotlands number one adopted son, his Father was born and lived not 5 minutes from where I live and he had his last child christened in the same church as I was just up the road from my house.. So there! Lenny

I noticed on the news today that profits are down 29% and they are on a downward slope just now, serves the greedy bastards right

Demetrius Tripp on Brunswick Actually not a bad track

Derc Hetzog--Church Going Girl

Couldn't agree more Martyn, I've had real problems on here but most were resolved, far too many vg+ grades masquerading as Ex or even Ex+ and has put me off buying on here for good I think, shame really as there's no need for it, think what we need in the guidelines of sales are strict gradings Lenny

Defo on a 45 Steve, French dj at our local do on Sunday played it out on an Argentinian yellow Tamla Motown single, already have the album, Blinding version right enough! Best, Lenny

South American only I think, any info please pm me Ta, Lenny

Awesome! OTIS CLAY--BABY JANE.mp3

No

Spares?

Agree with all the comments about this, the Larry Banks track is brilliant, nice one Ady Lenny

Cheers!, sorry I was away abroad when you posted that up Best, Lenny

How can you tell if the version of this is the right one i.e. the northern style one not the slower funky version

Has to be Butch for me tho I was a wee bit dissapointed with him at Cleethorpes this year and also Mick H and not forgetting Keith Money who was on top form last twice Ive heard him Lenny

Cheers!, might just check that out

Cheers James sounds good but we have already booked a hotel in central London for the weekend so we were just looking to stay in the smoke area, Best Lenny

A bit of a bummer with the Blue Skies night finished so is there anything on in London on Friday 4th remotely soulful? cheers in advance L
