I can't remember. I'll check it this evening, but the BT doesn't ring a bell.

Which Cleo Jackson tune is it? I have a good one by him, well artist reads "Cleo Jackson, Huck and The Soul Patrol" titled "I'm The Reason" on Mar Kee. I used to play it at The Griffin in about 1998 Phil

A guy in Michigan (Southfield) called Harry Levin had 100's of copies. I had 3 off him in 1990 or so (he's long dead now). He was an old school guy, a real character. Used to run a "rack jobbing" business in the 60's & 70's and just bought up any stock he could find of anything. He had a fair few copies of The Hyperions at that time too. He used to put out weird lists with rare records really cheap (by compariosn) and really common records at very expensive prices (again by comparison). Basically he would list whatever he happened to come across in his warehouse, and price it up as high as he could and work from there.

Soul Intention is proud to announce the imminent release of the second great 70's double-sider from Kent Washburn's Enkay Records Catalog, "One Way Ticket" bw/ "Don't Burn No Bridges" by The Hypnotics. The producer, Kent Washburn, has this to say.... "Both sides are kickin' Northern Soul sides from the mid 70's, which feature the very unique voice of James Thompson singing lead", states Washburn. "I originally produced this group for the Warner Bros label, (Reprise). Their two WB releases, (Beware of the Stranger bw/ Girl You Know That I Love You, and Dance to the Music bw/ Memories) were nationalR&B charted singles, and were what actually established my career as a record producer. I am really pleased to be able to have the rest of their catalog finally released to the public." "When I hooked up with them (The Hypnotics), James Thompson was already a very successful songwriter, working with the legendary Gene Chandler out of Chicago. He had numerous cuts on Gene, plus Mel & Tim, The Impressions, Barbara Acklin, Betty(The Cleanup Woman) Wright and Krystal Generation. But he wanted to get back in the public eye as an Artist. His first group, The Voicemasters had recorded for the Bamboo Label, but the success that they had was somewhat limited and he was looking for a bigger platform to expose his songwriting abilities and unique vocal ideas. We gathered together the "St Louis A-team session musicians- Westmoreland Co", and went to work. We did use the legendary "Tom-Tom Washington" from Chicago as horn & string arranger on some of the first stuff we cut, but the majority of what we cut was arranged and produced by James and myself. I love working with James. He is a true musical talent, and if things develop properly, don't be surprised if you get to hear some current sides that James and I will do. (Keep your fingers crossed...smile!) So, again, I happily say, "Hello from St Louis, et, al.... You now get to hear more great music from St Louis, MO !!! " The record is in production at the pressing plant and will be available from Monday February 20th. It will be available from the the Soul Intention website and, of course, from all good purveyors of soulful vinyl.

I remember you & tats (with Rob Wigley I think), just leaving Street Corner Music in Ferndale, MI not longer after I walked in, about 1989/90 I remember being quite down as I thought I wasn't going to get anything as you lot had obviously cleaned it out. So I started looking through the 25 cent bin full of records with no sleeves, and I found Danny Moore on Allrite in there amongst others. Sold it to Pete Lowrie for a grand

My 2nd Souncloud podcast. This time a selection of tracks from the Motown stable of labels. Some from 45's some from albums, but all on original vinyl from my collection. Enjoy! https://soundcloud.com/phil-dick/motown-podcast1-2

Nice sounds

The vinyl is in production, hopefully be here within the next couple of weeks

Then I'll hopefully see you at Morecambe Carleton Inn on May 6th It's easy to do just record from a USB turntable into a PC, or out of your stereo into a laptop. There's a few guides on here how to do that. Then you simply upload onto a site like Soundcloud

Thanks for the clarification Mike

Yes it was an option I chose, but on Soundcloud. There is nothing hosted on SS. I just pasted a URL into my original post.

I'm not quite sure what to do about that? I only posted a link to the Soundcloud webpage, there's no downloading available from SS as far as I'm aware. But if it's a problem then I'll remove the post. Cheers Phil

Oh yes. Van does it just about every time!

Thanks Jason.

It is. And I agree 100%

I dunno mate. It was just a check box.

I'll sort out the download option and add label info

Thought I'd have a go .... https://soundcloud.com/phil-dick/podcast
