Ooops sorry' mark b' only just read your reply.................so , sorry for the last post Thanks for the info don't think I wanna pay 30 quid funky flip or not Cheers Paul

Thanks for the response guys but ....................................where can I get one? CheersPaul

Or everyone playing 3 records each and double decking Cheers Paul PS My line up: Richard Searling Dave Withers Butch Rod Dearlove Tim Brown Andy Dyson Mick H Arthur Fenn

Almost as good as Wars/Lamonts "Why Can't We Be Lovers" I guess ???? That Phyliss Hyman track is worth it all tho doncha think ? Cheers Paul

"Two Timin' Double Dealin' " (United Artists) I want one ........................anyone help ? Cheers Paul Woosnam

Yes thats it Richard They list 3 45s on Roulette the first of them was "If At First You Dont Succeed" 'Helplessly" was another good "un I remember Then of course theres the Salsoul stuff Cheers Paul

Just had a look in the "Soul Harmony Singles" book and they list 3 Truth 45s on Devaki and 1 on S.O.C They also list the band members as; Leo Green Larry Hancock Will Thomas Leon Green William Grover Phil Coghill Doris Wallace Margaret Foxworth No mention of any other group on Roulette Cheers Paul

Got mine in a Soul Bowl "northern" pack in the mid 80s "Infatuation" as well........................which was nice Cheers Paul

Updated Any dealers looking I will take trades on anything if you haven't got anything I want right now then future credits ok with me Cheers Paul

No probs MAK, like I always say "theres two sides to every record" unless its a double sided promo of course Cheers Paul

Actually I think the warehouse was a different address to the HQ, which was Thomas Circle But I dare say they had a few copies of the records at the HQ too Looking forward to some sleepless nights next time ! Cheers Paul

Know what you mean Mark 'bout the price of LPs In my experience a good deal of them can be picked up for a lot less stateside As for going from vinyl to CDs................................now thats just daft Cheers Paul PS I find the Cat label most attractive to look at as well as there being some great music on there of course

Don't regret buying the LPs just regret selling the 45s sunnysoul. Better to have the LP and the 45 IMO !!! Little Beavers 4:22 on the LP think "Concrete Jungle" was a rare groove spin off this LP ? Cheers Paul

Hi mischief yep the hotels address is I think 10 Thomas Cicle but as it takes up about a quarter of that circle I'm sure 3 Thomas Circle don't exist anymore. Love Washington great place lovely friendly polite people can't wait to get back there Cheers Paul PS It is very very cold in winter tho

Brilliant post Mark and oh so true. I sold my 45 after I bought the LP back in the 80s I was "going through a phase" of selling 45s if I found the LP.............what a great idea that was .........................Carol Anderson immediatly springs to mind as another example. Best stop now or I'll get nightmares Cheers Paul

It works mischief Been twice to Washington and both times stayed at the Washington Plaza hotel, address.......................................Thomas Circle !!! Were we sleeping above the old Shrine HQ ? Cheer Paul

Not surprised at all meself to see it going for 50, people were selling it for 25 or more while it was still available from hip-o-select They won't sell their CDs to England anymore but you can buy them (at hip-o-select prices) from Dusty grooves. Not this David Ruffin one I hasten to add this has been a long time sold out Great stuff on the CD "I Cant Be Hurt Anymore" was a big radio play for Mr Searling at the time of release Cheers Paul PS Mines number 1800

Phroaaarh !!!!

Yes epic flipsides not bad either...........I'm sure I:ve seen this listed for a lot more recently too Cheers Paul

Know what you mean gazman 'bout classic tunes getting remixed "if it ain't broke don't fix it" Cheers Paul PS I just wanna know if there was any unreleased stuff

Wouldn't say it sounds better gazman but there is a very nice remix on there Also theres the really good Fantastic Johnny C "Waiting For The Rain" remix which is basically the instrumental and vocal tracks mixed so that its longer, like not messed about with, if you see what I mean An Arctic CD now theres a thought...................something for Kent maybe ? Wonder if theres many tracks "left in the can" ? Cheers Paul

Yep mines white label styrene soul45er.............................gold label vinyl oooh, yum! yum! Cheers Paul

Spot on about keeping it to "ourselves" tho I think we're deluding ourselves if we think thats true I'm never happy to hear about others having problems with sellers Sorry you took my flippant comment the wrong way I know a few German dealers/collecters if theres anything I can do to help I'd be only too pleased Cheers Paul
