Bloody hell mark, good to hear from you and good to see you are still around i was at the Peebles do all day Saturday also was it the first shotts that you Dj'd at? have you still got your records? jim

Hi mark bloody hell that is a real journey home - a well us scotland done it for years, so it was you English softies turn to travel - lol! I assume that Pablo, Mark George etc are no longer around ? jim

Hi mark had a look at your Bay Area web site - very interesting indeed hopefully you remember me, I used to run Shotts (AKA Scotland!) best jim o'hara

Couldn't agree more,

Thanks guys for the replies One of those that was around a while back fairly cheap - remember buying mine at Allanton for 10 or 15 quid - but I suppose when I think of it, that was over 20 years ago - lol A cracking record indeed, was just surprised at the price that's all! Thanks again Jim Thanks Richard and all for the replies One of those that was around a while back fairly cheap - remember buying mine at Allanton for 10 or 15 quid - but I suppose when I think of it, that was over 20 years ago - lol A cracking record indeed, was just surprised at the price that's all!

Bleeding hell!!! I give in!!!!!!

Just seen this listed today at £200 Best of luckto the buyer, but holy F**k, when did this become a £200 record????

I probably just said what everyone was thinking! Can I suggest "end of thread"? Jim

macejojo@aol.com This guy has one

These are a great piece of history indeed

This is a good record, but the amount of SS space being taken up by it really amazes me Only my opinion of course!!!!

You'll be on the beers next week then Alan?

Ok mate no worries Best Jim

Cool, will PM him You coming to Peebles?

Do you know if anyone recorded it chalky?

Lovely record Peter I would class this is a deep soul record Jim

This is a beat ballad!!,

Didnt get the chance to tune in Richard, so hopefully someone has recorded it Still don't quite understand why too many people only look for expensive records????

you are right Lenny - the cut i have is straight from Ron Murphy's tape with no editing - its a bit rawer, with some brass etc. the one on Soul King is it a bit more edited and polished!!! see attached pictures, the group were actually the New Metros and it was supposed to come out on Gold Soul dont have the Metros LP on RCA anymore, so cant compare the faces etc, and cant remember what Ron Murphy told me about the group - probably one in the same though you will see from the scan, Ron wrote on the label "Gold Soul 1028" - i cant remember if this was the recording session number or if it was to be the label release number Still sounds good though and was actually just playing it today as to the year the Soul King pressings came out - unsure about this, but from memory it was a couple of years after i got the acetate, which was around 1988 i think!!! - memory isnt too good i'm afraid best jim

Anybody record theis show?

Must agree, the JE version has never had the recognition it deserves Maybe a case of not obscure enough I think it's a close call between JE and Satin

Thanks Richard,I'm on iPad, maybe that's why??

Richard I can't see it above or below Colin & Kitch is the one I'm after? Jim

Where is it chalky?

Anyone got a recording of this?
