Top Tips For 2014
Right then,This has been one of the most popular threads of mine & I'm sure many other members too over the last few years so it's a little bit upsetting to see it getting ripped to bit's like this so I'll try my best to (hopefully) get it back on track. My first tip, might be a bit controversial & is definitely not one for the purists but I bet it will be massive on the dancefloors if anyone has the balls to play it. It's a remix of Billy Stewarts Summertime by Smoove & before anyone say's how dare somebody remix this don't forget Billy's version is in fact a cover version. Also it's available on 7" vinyl if formats make any difference to you. https://soundcloud.com/stevenmoove/summertime-smoove-rework Now did I mention cover versions. My second tip is another 'marmite' track. It's a cover version of Millie Jacksons House For Sale. Now I know what you're thinking, Man's gone mad but I actually prefer this version from New Zealands Mark Williams to Millie's original. Just listen to the sax break half way through it - To die for IMO. Also quite scarce as it only got released in New Zealand & the odd few that were out there have now been snapped up. Also know it's a favourite of Stevie G as well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTgpeij3dU0 Third & lastly up is something that has been massive on the Modern scene for the last few months but it's been rumoured that a 7" edit will be surfacing soon. Here's the 12" version from the governor, Frankie Knuckles featuring Inaya Day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M0F12lDZFc

Carlton & The Shoes
Wanted, Carlton & The Shoes - Give Me Little More. Original 7" preferred but would consider the album This Heart Of Mine. PM me if you can help & I'll get back to you asap. Thanks, Mart...

Hinckley's Masonic Hall Event
Can't remember you playing the Moments Rob. Must have been lost in conversation somewhere. That Four Tracks sounded good. You do realise that I'm going to be bugging you for it now don't you. Great spot fella

Ovo Debate - The Motown 7S Box Set

Collecting Motown?
Be sure to buy a UK Mowest press then Chalky as the sound quality is far better than some of the US copy's. Was lucky enough to get mine off Sutty at a reasonable price before they shot up. Might be worth asking him as he has a pretty regular turnover of stuff like this. Could then put it in your UDG trolley

Ray Agee - I'm Losing Again/ Hard Loving Woman On Cd?
It. See you are from my old home City of Sheffield. Might I suggest a trip to somewhere like the Horti Club & then you might realise what I am talking about.

Collecting Motown?
Seems to be a lot of talk about Motown 7" releases on here but don't forget the albums. My all time Motown related track is an album only release on the Mowest label. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynxqigC3DmY

Ray Agee - I'm Losing Again/ Hard Loving Woman On Cd?
Guess I could just stop at home & listen to it on youtube or something similar. Would save my 'boot' leather too (excuse the pun, I couldn't resist!). In fact if everybody did that it would solve the problem of so many venue's on as well. Jeezz, some folks just don't get it do they

Question in post 1. Answer in post 2

Ray Agee - I'm Losing Again/ Hard Loving Woman On Cd?
Going out tonight to Hinckley. Tom Walsh is DJ'ing & he will play Ray Agee (hopefully). Now if I walk up to the decks & I see a vinyl carved copy or some other form of bastardised copy spinning around I'll feel cheated but I know that won't happen. Wouldn't go if I thought it would. Them's the rules for me, Always has been & always will. PS, Slight contradiction on my previous post r/e Ray Agee but sure you all know where I'm coming from.

Ray Agee - I'm Losing Again/ Hard Loving Woman On Cd?
By some strange coincidence that's where we're heading on Saturday so look forwards to hearing it played. My poor old limbs are past dancing to it these day's though so I'll be nodding my head in approval somewhere

Ray Agee - I'm Losing Again/ Hard Loving Woman On Cd?
Not suggesting for a second that it's a bootleg & that's why I quoted Ted's reply as well as the post that said it was a boot. Just thought it might be of interest. PS, in the highly unlikely event that it does turn out to be a bootleg I'll give you £50 for it Ted

Some of you might want to cast a glance over post 134 & also post 147 on this thread before you jump to any conclusions.

Why Would Any Collector Buy A Cracked Record?
I know Ted & I know how it happened. Skegness I believe.
-
Why Would Any Collector Buy A Cracked Record?
No. I collect Soul music in it's original format. A lot of the time it's 7" or 12" original vinyl but if something is only available on CD or download it'll do me as long as it's legitimate.

12" Single - King Tutt - You've Got Me Hung Up
Don't sit on the fence waiting for these as they are on ebay for double & above this already. Credit to Jason for not cashing in as others have done.

Why Would Any Collector Buy A Cracked Record?
I'd give Soul Sam £50 for his cracked Joseph Webster

12" Record Trolley
Here is a review of the UDG Slingbag that I have. https://djworx.com/udg-slingbag-trolley-set-deluxe/ You can also buy the bottom half of the trolley separately for about £100 at places like Juno & ebay. Also if you want to transport 7" singles you can get one of these & they fit perfectly over the UDG trolley handle. Got one of these myself & they are brilliant & will never go back to the solid style 7" cases. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Magma-7-Single-Bag-150-II-black-/111207946377?pt=UK_Vinyl_CD_DJ_Bags_Cases&hash=item19e4829889

12" Record Trolley
Not bad but the UDG trolley is the one to go for IMO. Magma do a 7" bag that fits over the handle so you can transport both 7" & 12" with ease. Will post you a link later as using my phone at the moment.

John Manship Auction Results 11-12-2013
Quick google search would have got a Temptations 12" for £65 & that's high for it IMO.

Bileo - You Can Win
But it's already been re-issued once on the blue MTU Watts City label.

John Manship Auction Results 4-12-2013
Surprised this went for what must be at least double it's value. Not even it's rarest format (imo) as seen far more 7" copy's than 12" copy's.

Whats The Difference Between A Good Dj And A Great Dj?
After tips Andy Might not go down too well with most but I think there are hardly any DJ's on the Soul scene. There are a hell of a lot of collectors who are passionate about their music & want to share it with the masses but very very few of them are DJ's. A DJ won't think twice about playing a track he hates & also couldn't care less what format it is on & is more than likely doing it for the cash. A collector will carefully take an original record out of it's card sleeve & possibly then it's paper sleeve too & lovingly place it on the 1210.
