  1. A strong rumour that Manifesto founder and old mate Ian 'Polly' Palmer is going to show his face at the re-union. Also others rumoured to be heading along are old Yate stalwarts Micky Beaton, Joanne Schiazza and Eddie Hubbard. A top night going to be had
  2. Fairly simple story. The Up Look release made some small waves when it's came out. Was then leased to Abbott which saw some potential in the track, as they had a national distribution deal. Sadly it never hit
  3. I've got on for sale at mo on ebays stone mint open bid £50, here's the link https://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZdave_t_top_dog Malayka and I speak to Charles fairly regularly. He is working on a couple of new tracks at the moment that should be out in europe next year, through a deal with a label in Germany. We hope to bring him over to europe next year also for a few live perfomances. Dave
  4. Ending in just over a day, see link https://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZdave_t_top_dog
  5. I'll send my comission bill soon Dave
  6. THE TWO WILL MAKE A GREAT 45 RELEASE, AS I SAID SOME TIME NEXT YEAR. IN REPLY TO SEVERAL PM'S WE MAY WELL DO A FEW DJ COPIES A FEW MONTHS BEFORE THE RELEASE
  7. THE POWER OF SOULSOURCE, NOT ME THOUGH. DID BAG A Eleventh Commandment
  8. Hi Steve It is Tearra, thats her real name. Top TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON. Have a licence deal on all of this this
  9. No, he let me have all the stock , but this 12" flew out the door. But looking at the stock sheets we only had five copies, all went in the first 2 weeks of listing then at £25 each. I speak to Manny every few weeks, we have a great un-released Rotations from him that we will be putting out next year on a limited press 45. Manny found 2 studio disc of the tune, one I've kept the other is in the hands of Mick H. Manny has no copies of any of the wax he cut left. Last year he put out a CD on Ebony Evans that sold well, it included an updated version of the Tierra track. This got a fair bit of turntable action on the modern scene. He has now pressed a limited 12" wax copy of this and has sent all of them to me. We will be sending these out to help the promotion of the cd further over the next few weeks to DJ's that replied to Malayka's promotions tread she put up a month ago.
  10. george perkins Label:Royal Shield
  11. george perkins baby i love you
  12. Following the great sucess of Steve Womble's tip for the top-North By Northeast. Lets have a tip a week from you of a tune sitting round on dealers lists and Gemm at nothing, that you think peeps might like to pick up. Mine is the over looked George Perkins track on Royal Sheild, his other on the label 'Glad I Found You', always sells well where as this great 2 sider is over looked, just needs a couple of dj's behind either side and it would go. Was only pressed at about a 1000 copies, so in the greater scheme of things could, long term prove to be a harder record to find. Sound clips to follow on both sides.
  13. Top tune young man, played this one nite at The 100 Club many moons ago. Had peps running to the stage to see what it was . Anyone who hasn't got it buy it, thats a cheap price, Gino never pressed anything in great quantity Dave
  14. Remind me was that the one that Ian Clark and a few others had Dave Thorley looky Liky wigs on. Yes I was there
  15. Morning Jerry, yes indeed. Also the scene of Roch djing so out of his face that he was held up by hidden hands at the back. See you on Dec 1st
  16. I think the flip side is better
  17. Come on all, it's not like this hasn't happen a hundred time before. People paid high prices for the first copies of 'The Flasher' way back when. There will always be a cue of trophy hunters or dj's that see a record fill the floor for someone else and want a piece of the action. Their are few of us out there that can't say we haven't been caught up in the buzz or fever around one record or another in the past. A record gets popular, supply outstrips demand so the price goes up, cuz no one will wait. In many cases there is a supply big enough to satisfy demand (like, 'Party time man'), but the speed of that supply getting to the market, didn't match the moment in time everyone wanted it. Is any of this wrong? hell no, just makes the 'scene' what it is, and why we love it (and we do love it). Drama, intrigue, hero's and villians, better than a soap opera. Back to the record in question, nice tune. If you want it now, for what ever reason, you'll have to pay the price (make a great song title ). If you already have it cuz you buy tunes you like, good on ya.
  18. It is a re-make of their doo-wop tune. I love it, maybe a bit slow for the dance floor. But that lead singer belts it out when he gets going

  20. Big tune for that Dave Withers fellow if memory serves me right, when he was doing Wigan and Yate
  21. What you been up to young man, not been bending that car of yours out of shape have you, and you such a careful driver
