Also covered by The Loading Zone on their RCA LP with Linda Tillary on lead vocals Cheers Paul

Its a pointless list if you don't list the titles Cheers Paul

Yes the T&C gig I remember.... they had to turn off the power to get him offstage! He was the only one left on stage (still playing) the rest of the band were long gone Saw him in DC in 2006 and got the chance to speak to him after the gig..........he remembered the Astoria gig but couldn't remember the T&C one! Hes still got it.......if not a memory Cheers Paul

Maybe the track was "Not You" ?? Cheers Paul

Cat ....................... Gwen McCrae/Little Beaver etc etc Cheers Paul

You could always rent a bike Mick Cheers Paul

Hi Andy Soul Source member "mikevague" had one for sale @ Utrecht record fair a few weeks back....maybe worth a PM ? Cheers Paul

So why not just use the "goldmine" system as long as we all understand it ? I 've bought from the states for years using this system with no probs ...sometimes with happy results..vg+ has been minty etc Cheers Paul

And yes those so called "budget " airlines ........aren't ..... anymore Cheers Paul

Trust you'll bring some 70s sounds next time Dave Cheers Paul

I have Jackie Lee "The Duck" (JOYS 192) and Jerry Butler "Love Me" (JOYS126)...........thought "Look Out World Here Comes Jean Wells" was another ........but thats on Sonet Cheers Paul PS Have seen another solo Jerry Butler one (also Vee Jay stuff)

Shame as its the stereo version too..........plus those 2 other classics Cheers Paul

Think you;re probably right Dave....to be honest I only have the CD thats called "Yes I'm Ready" (WMOT 1994) Love her version of "Give Me Your Love" on Buddah Cheers Paul

Really like "So Hes Yours Now" from this LP.........but you're right it is a good all round album "You Did Not Stay Last Night" (WMOT) 45 from 1980 is anothr one I really like...........longer version to be found on her WMOT LP "Yes I'm Ready" Agree with garethx as well most of her stuff is woth a listen as she 'gets inside" and interprets the songs so well Cheers Paul

I would guess that Sandras version came 1st as its very similar to Gladys and it seems strange Buddah would put it out after Gladys had such a big hit with it. Unless "The Ring" was the plug side but that doesn't look likely to me from the numbers on the label. A shame because I think "The Ring" could well have been a soul hit. Thanks for the info about Sandra doing demos for Gladys Is it corect that Sandra Richardson "became" Sandra Feva ? Cheers Paul

Hi Lorraine Just dug out my 45 "The Ring"/ "I Feel A Song" on Buddah260 after seeing this post..........was this the 1st recording of "I Feel...." before Gladys version ? I can only echo previous posts concerning your fantastic contribution to the soul music scene..........can only add...thanks for all the years of musical pleasure you have given us Cheers Paul Woosnam

Green Street............one block up from Columbus Cheers Paul

Check out Lulu"s soul LP's y'all Cheers Paul

Not my original idea but a good friend of mine wants "Was That All It Was" by Jean Carn..............think about it Cheers Paul

Nice LP too ..........and a lot cheaper Cheers Paul

Thanks for that info flynny Cheers Paul

Thanks shute Is that a "coalition" estimate Cameron 30 - Clegg 50 ? While I"m here I noticed a couple of differences with mine and the promo I saw on line(one on popsike has "radio station copy" lower right side and distributors upper right) Heres a photo of mine I guess these are down to pressing plant/printers and nothing suspicious Cheers Paul

What sort of price for a mint- Big Top w/l promo copy please ? Cheers Paul

Thread of the year for me easy many thanks to all contributors Cheers Paul
