Basic Black "n" Pearl is a bargain for someone Cheers Paul

Is the Burgess Gardner referred to on the label the jazz trumpeter ? Cheers Paul

Yes Pete, I agree 100% when I first read it my initial reaction was to have my account closed. Not wanting to be a member of a forum that let this kind of post stand. Hear, hear Mark Cheers Paul

If you read the latest issue of "Theres That Beat" you will see it was played at the last Hamburg weekender to a full dancefloor. Ahhh.........................now I get it thanks Pete Cheers Paul

Our Ken would never accept "buttons" for a tune, but if yer offering "malteasers" well.................................................... Cheers Paul

Tony you are a star sir Once again many thanks for the info, I will do my best and try and find that CD I posted the "Make Me Believe In You" Dutch sleeve in a picture sleeve thread a while ago if any kind sourcer could find it and post it on here I'd be grateful. Once again thanks Tony you da best Would love to see that Mr G Oh Gawd I just got repetative strain syndrome going thru all that again, thanks Pete Fasten your seat balt "rugbysoulgirl" theres a lot more to come I'm sure Cheers Paul PS Oh and thanks Ian these revelations 'bout back in the day are priceless PPS JamesTrouble, your "input" on this thread is really not worth it.

Love to meet up with you guys for a beer or six after the show tho Cheers Paul

Am amazed that people are reccomending Utrecht for 45s as the couple of times I've been its been albums (admitingly very good)albums,albums. And the only 45s of any significance in the "rare soul' kinda thing were from English dealers. Apart from the odd Euro picture sleeve and they weren"t cheap. Cheers Paul

Ian, Did you try to find Patti Jo for SWONS ? Don't think anyone has a photo of her ? Was gonna put a picture of the Dutch 45 of "Make Me Believe In You" but unfortunately Mrs Shrews can't be arsed and I don't have the know how. Don't think she recorded anything else except her other "Ain't No Love Lost" ? Scepter 45 ? Cheers Paul PS The Dutch 45 has a "designed" sleeve rather than a pic/photo

Don"t remember Al Williams being covered.................................could well be wrong tho Cheers Paul

The Dramatics 'Be My Girl" (ABC) Tony Drake "Lets Play House" (Musicor) Walter Jackson "Its An Uphill Climb To The Bottom" (Okeh) immediately sring to mind sorry cant do sound can a kind soul sourcer help ? Oh and my all time favourite Harold Melvin And The Bluenotes "Yesterday I Had The Blues" (Phil Int) Cheers Paul

Cheers Paul

I'm hooked Chris, and so is Mrs Shrews. Cheers Paul

Hi Russ I'm sure someone was after The Intrigues in the "wants" section, maybe worth a look ? Cheers Paul

Was she the McCoy sister who was managing Jean Carne a few years ago ? Cheers Paul

Thanks for the info guys The reason my mate thinks The Fabulous Jades was covered is because his copy looks like it was covered up at some point, glue stains in the run out etc Cheers Paul

Ian, sorry if you´ve already answeared this but did James Wells `Baby I`m Still......` get a 12 inch release? Also a non soul suorce mate would like to know if The Fabulous Jades `Come On And Live` was ever played covered up at the Mecca? Cheers Paul

White socks, white socks I"m sorry you've gone too far now Ian................there are limits Well said Koolkat Ian, who played The Twanns at the Mecca please ? Cheers Paul

Must´ve been some day out, thanks for sharing Cheers Paul

In that case I remember you mentioned, on Richard Searlings show, seeing Diane Jenkins live in New Jersey (I think) How was she live? And were you responsible for having her 'Recycle" 45 withdrawn and changed to 'Tow A Way Zone"? Oh and whats the story with the different 'I Need You" issues please ? And if you get 'round to answearing these today after all the rest you've done then you deserve a lie down Cheers Paul

As Johnny "Guitar" Watson once put it ................................."Its A Damn Shame" Cheers Paul

Ian, I think you will find that if you dip your toes into other threads and contribute constuctively there will be no probs If another member were to "throw rotten eggs" at you off topic on the same thread then the mods would take a dim view and delete their posts So....................c'mon and "DoThe Chin Stroke Baby" Cheers "L"il boy" Paul

I think this is a darn shame as your vast knowledge and experience would be invalueable to the rest of this forum. As for 'unnecessary arguments or complaints of self promotion" well this thread seems to have more than its fair share. Cheers Paul

Yes she was Soulfreak, and she looked and sounded fantastic Cheers Paul
