  1. Smokey certainly takes some beating....here's another - The Love I Saw In You Was Just A Mirage..... https://youtu.be/kPG6LsEFTKA And how about this duet with Aretha.....Ooo Baby Baby..... https://youtu.be/Xy75z0trlDk
  2. Lisa's new album is called Seven. Boring, I know. Must be her seventh album or something.
  3. It Keeps Rainin' - Fats Domino.....it's supposed to be a sad song but it always puts a smile on my face.
  4. There's a film about it......Point Break.
  5. Great story. Being told to insure it for $20k would have made the guy's day.
  6. Just a query, but do the Distance Selling Regulations cover the purchase of records over the internet? Apologies if this is in the wrong thread, but I thought it might be relevant, as it's something that has only become prominent with the advent of e-commerce, and will certainly affect any collector starting out.
  7. Also getting a big thrill from the new turntable I have just acquired, giving a lot of my vinyl a new lease of life.
  8. Discussed on "This England" (18mins 51).
  9. Look at that Divvy.......
  10. "Just what in the Sam Hill are those limey kids on?"
  11. Nice one Mikey. From your table, in 1977 I was earning the equivalent of less than £60 a week in today's money. Mind you, that was all spending money as the navy fed and sheltered me back then.
  12. Attended a couple of nights in the northwest within about six weeks of each other. Two different venues but a young DJ was on at both. To be fair, he did a good spot, well received both times, but his playlist was almost identical both times, with only a few exceptions. To give him the benefit of the doubt, I put it down to his age, and the fact that he wouldn't have been collecting long. So yes, I can empathise with the OP comments, and everybody has to start somewhere. After all, I believe the children are our future.
  13. NS - Cover up - what DJs do RW - What politicians do
  14. Between April and September is the last news I had.
  15. The entry on iMDb was updated 3 days ago.... https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1837613/
  16. I'm suffering from PTSD after yesterday.....Post Thread Straying Disorder.
  17. You've got to admit it is a creepy pervert stalker peeping tom saddo song though.
  18. Dean Barlow - "Third Window From The Right"
  19. Jimmy Bo Horn - "I Can't Speak"
  20. Sorry, Pete beat me to it. Digital vs Analogue, CDs vs Vinyl, a completely different argument.
  21. Strictly on the QT, but I've heard on the Grapevine it's a guy called Randolph, aka The Chemist.
  22. In a way it's like reproduction furniture. The fact that an antique piece of furniture has been reproduced for those who like that style but can't afford to buy an original piece is not going to affect the value of the original. Also, why should anybody be denied the enjoyment of a piece of music (or furniture etc) because the original is unobtainable to them due to availability or price? Do the original creators or owners of the work benefit financially or otherwise from a legitimate re-issue?
  23. One idea is that anybody who is spotted needlessly covering a large amount of dance floor distance could be given a pedometer. The pedometer could then be checked at the end of a record, and if the distance travelled exceeds a set limit, then a surcharge can be applied, to go towards the upkeep of the floor.
  24. Can't believe your mate Major Lance had to cadge a lift to Stoke.
