That brass guitar wouldn't last two minutes in this country. It would have been nicked and weighed in within days. Let's hope the same doesn't apply in Detroit but somehow I doubt it. Legend or not some scum bag won't give a shit. RIP JJ.

I bought an album from the states and when it didn't arrive checked the US Post tracker and found it had been held by the UK post office to pay tax. I never received the card the post office usually send and when I contacted the post office they said they'd sent the package back to the sender. The sender never received it and I was left with sweet FA because the post office wankers couldn't do their friggin job. No apology, they didn'd give a monkeys. It doesn't encourage you to buy from the USA particularly when the UK postal service is full of imbeciles and grasping tax parasites. wanting to nail you for a 50 year old record.

Any idea how accurate this latest documentary is. I visited the Motown museum a couple of times and there was several people from back in the day including some of the Andantes and a producer, I forget who's name, but when I asked why there was not a single picture nor mention of Raynoma Singleton they all clammed up and looked at me like I had two heads. The Gerald Posner Motown book endorsed by Gordy was pretty much the same. It's like she has been written out of Motown history all together, however the Berry Me And Motown book by Raynoma tells a totally different story..It will be interesting to see which version we get.

Just bought one from Juno. Limited to one copy per person. There was another on Amozan from the US if you're prepared to wait till August for delivery

Hi Anyone got a copy of Barbara's finest on Tuska, VG or better for sale? Thanks

It doesn't look to have a very big range. If someone took off with your records you need something that can track wherever they get to like the apple find my phone app. I couldn't imagine any thief would hand around within 200 feet. A satellite enabled tracking device would be a great idea though.

Hilarious.

Thanks

Does anyone know if Dottie & Millie talkin' about my baby was ever booted. If so how do I tell the difference between original and boot? Thanks

Just to throw another twist on Al Foster Band I recall reading this on the Raresoulie site which claims Al Foster was a jazz drummer from Richmond Virginia. Looks like they need to revise their description. https://www.raresoulie.co.uk/page-10.html

Does the overtly rude Blow Fly come into this category? Not quite Esther Phillips but a good effort. WARNING - ADULT CONTENT ( Wouldn't want to be accused of 'inappropriate' behaviour)

Thank F**k for that. Best venue around here and the replacement venue at the Civic Hall is crap. It would have been a tragedy to have lost the Ritz what with the long history it's got. I've definitely struck the Ritz in London off my list of approved hotels, it's travel lodge for me next time I'm down there.

An interesting article in the New York Times about the illusive Jackie Shane and the recent release of a double album/CD www.nytimes.com/2017/10/15/arts/music/jackie-shane-transgender-soul-pioneer.html

Not exactly mind blowing as the description would have you believe. I'd give a tenner for it. That's ten quid not ten grand.

Excellent squeez box music thingy by the sounds of it!

If you know what radio station it was many have a playlist for any particular day/dj on their web page, certainly the BBC stations.
