Hi Pablo I have brand spanking new copies of Jean Carn 'If you wanna go back' at a ridiculously cheap price on www.soulmusic.co.uk ('Top Sellers' section i believe?) I have a Basic Black & Pearl AND a Jesse Gomez also for sale (not on the site).............these are ridiculously expensive though (well Jesse Gomez is!) PM me if interested? Cheers Steve

Hi There I have the Hugh Boynton 'You went back' and also copies of the legit yellow 'We're gonna make it' Please pm me if interested? Cheers Steve www.soulmusic.co.uk

Hi All Has anyone got a current email on a guy called Paul Devlin from Edinburgh? I think he moved house a while ago and changed email address too! If someone could PM me with the email address, i'd be grateful. Cheers Steve

The Kristy 45 saga The quality is poor because it came directly from Kristy herself via an old mid-70's cassette copy of her unreleased LP!!!! I agree that we didn't do anything like as good a job on re-mastering as we possibly could have done (even way back in 2000!). Today though, i bet it could be done far easier and cheaper than it would have done way back when! We made 300 copies of the 45 with a view to selling them quickly to justify (and to afford) to release the full LP! In actual fact we gave away about 20 copies as demos and there were about 50 faulty 45's in there, so there's less than 250 around (although i think i have a handful left, buried deep in my garage somewhere!). I paid for the license/manufacture of the 45's in the US and i also paid Kristy upfront for all 300 copies! Unfortunately, probably due to the quality (although i think there may have been other 'on the scene' factors) they didn't sell half as quick as we wanted them too to justify the LP release, so it never happened I've always said that one day BOTH sides would be monsters on the Northern AND Modern scenes because they are imho two of the very best records ever made!!!! The LP is also fantastic with 9 brilliant tracks that i described at the time as being as good as the unreleased Sandra Wright LP! I do actually have the original CD that was made directly from the cassette and it's fidelity is way better than the 45, so i guess something 'could' be done with it? The problem is, before i could do any remastering i'd have to get back in touch with Kristy, who i'm sure will be as pi**ed as i was that we couldn't make it happen the first time around, so what chance would we have of getting the success i originally promised her, the second time around???? However, i really would still love to see the full LP released one day........... Cheers Steve

Hi Jason Aye, as you know i always refunded the £2 per 45 everytime anyone bought more than one 45 in one go BUT it was a bit pre-historic PLUS people often thought they'd not get any refund. Regular buyers (like your good self) knew the crack and didn't mind doing it The PayPal shopping cart is working out fine and i can thoroughly recommed it to anyone with a web site Cheers Steve

If yer coming on Saturday mate, I'd bring it with you - there's been a couple sold at The Orwell in the last year or two, for big bucks too! Cheers Steve

www.soulmusic.co.uk New this month - we now have a PayPal Shopping Cart in operation! This is much more convenient for buyers who want to buy more than one 45 in one go! New 45's can be found in the 'New Stuff', 'Rarities' & 'Front Page Focus' sections of the site. We've also added another new section called 'Classics'. Don't forget to check the 45's in the other three sections 'Top Sellers', 'In Stock' & 'More In Stock' as many prices have been tweaked and there are definitely some hidden gems in there at killer prices!!!! ***The newly found original demo of Larry Saunders 'On the real side' is on the site too!*** ***Was also planning on putting the new Solid Solution - Think about it girl 45 on the site this week BUT I got drunk and left a box of 20 at Prestatyn please drop me a PM if you want one? Go on, have a look............you know you want to :-) Cheers Steve

Has since become the most requested record for this Saturday's Orwell anniversary - eh Dave Cheers Steve

An old Blake Helliwell spin & a current Orwell spin methinks -where'd ya hear it Seany baby First heard it via a Yarmouth tryst between Dave Halsall & Ged Lunt! 45 is dead hard - LP crops up occasionally - last three on ebay have been snapped up by Orwellians Cheers Steve

I have one for sale Gav..........................but it's stupid money pm me mate Cheers Steve

Thanks for letting us know Neil 45's just arrived and they look luvverly - just updated the site with a proper scan of each label - you can find it here www.soulmusic.co.uk (first 45 you come to!) All those who have bought it from me this week - they will go out today first class Cheers Steve

That's an orig 12" as far as i know - all the copies i've seen (not that many admittedly - say, 5) are like this! Great song as you say Hope this helps Steve

Posting this on behalf of Francis, Glenn and the Real Side records gang, who are releasing this brill double sider this week! On the real side (Original 1974 Turbo version) Probably in most people's Top 10 70's Northern tracks of all time! One of the records that broke the mould. Still in-demand after all these years! This is it's first official 45 release for over 30 years! On the real side (Demo take from the All Platinum archives) What a find! The original demo take from 1974 that gives an interesting and very different slant to the song! I'm sure all the main dealers in the country will be stocking this BUT if you want an early copy or simply just a look and listen why not visit www.soulmusic.co.uk Cheers Steve

Sales have been fantastic over the weekend Just another reminder of the new release on 'Real Side' records - Larry Saunders - On the real side - Original 1974 Turbo version PLUS the original 1974 demo take direct from the All Platinum vaults It's on the site to buy now! Cheers Steve

www.soulmusic.co.uk Just a quick note to let you know that another batch of 45's have just been added to the site! New this month - we now have a PayPal Shopping Cart in operation! This is much more convenient for buyers who want to buy more than one 45 in one go! New 45's can be found in the 'New Stuff', 'Rarities' & 'Front Page Focus' sections of the site. We've also added another new section called 'Classics'. Don't forget to check the 45's in the other three sections 'Top Sellers', 'In Stock' & 'More In Stock' as many prices have been tweaked and there are definitely some hidden gems in there at killer prices!!!! ***The newly found original demo take of Larry Saunders 'On the real side' is on the site too!*** Last month's updates saw an absolute blitz of 'SOLD' signs going up on many of the newly listed 45's! There's a whole bunch of brilliant stuff up there BUT numbers are limited on many of the 45's so you need to get in straight away or risk missing out!!!! Go on, have a look............you know you want to :-) Cheers Steve Plumb 10th March 2007 www.soulmusic.co.uk
