How about this one from earlier. https://cgi.ebay.com/PAGES-Heartaches-Pain-Rare-Northern-Modern-Soul-45_W0QQitemZ130360540651QQcategoryZ27349QQcmdZViewItem

I'd like one cheaper if there's a copy going spare. Anybody?

Good reply's Sebastian but how do we know they 'ALWAYS' got something wrong? What if just the once they got it bang on. We could all be sitting on them in our collections & be none the wiser. Look at all the Dwight Franklins that have suddenly turned up for a start. Something strange going on there. Suppose a new discovery was copied for example something like a top DJ's cover up. Who would know? Thought it was only about 25 that leaked out but not sure. No expert on Punk but would be interesting to know how many real v copy's there are though.

Thing is though Ian they were pretty dam close to perfect copy's way back in the 70's with things like the Anderson Brothers & Jimmy Radcliffe (Musicor) so I'm sure it would be far easier now. Lets say for example a mint William Powell appears on the bay & goes for something like 5k who's going to know how real it is as there's nothing to compare it to. Whats the chance of 2 folks being in the same room to be able to check it out & even if they are slightly different who's to say which one is real & which is the fake. There are plenty of other things out there similar that this could happen with to make it worthwhile. Things like The Combinations & Margret Little spring to mind & who's to say it ain't happened already. Just look how many original A&M copy's of God Save The Queen - Sex Pistols there are on popsike. Probably more copy's on there than were actually pressed. Only a few months ago a couple of Lester Tiptons cropped up. Not suggesting for a moment they were fakes but suppose they were, the winners ain't got anything to compare it to unless they were lucky or stupid enough to buy it twice. There are other scenario's too Ian. Look at all the copy's of Ain't Gonna Run - Royal Esquires that have suddenly appeared. This was thought to be a one off for quite a while & changed hands for vast amounts of cash but now there are mint unplayed copy's everywhere & all supposedly from the same source. Again not suggesting they ain't real but would anyone be that suprised if the guy wasn't pressing them up somewhere along with all the other stuff on the Prix label? Industrial town? Sadly not any more Ian or I'd be working today fella.

Thanks for the post Pete Exactly what this part of the forum is for & hopefully it'll save any members getting stung. Only one option left now Joe. You'll have to get into 2k Banging Soulful House Very good point & I'm with you on this. Don't beleive for 1 minute that it's impossible to copy something from the 60's with todays technology & how do we know that it hasn't happened already?

Moved this to the correct forum. Can confirm that there is a yellow Stax 7" UK release as well. Great version

Makes sense to me, Last millenium = old. This millenium = new.

Remember this from 3 years ago anyone? https://www.popsike.com/NORTHERN-SOUL-45HERBERT-HUNTERI-WAS-BORN-TO-LOVE-YOU/330071676173.html

Just had a listen via the myspace link & think the 'Saranagati' cover version of Danny White's Cracked Up Over You might be of more interest to some on here.

Err why James? Can't see anything wrong with the quoted post. Perhaps you best read the forum's terms of use yourself if using language like that

Nah then Manno I still live in Rovrem for't time being & I'm still stuck wi't Dee Dah accent. Will have a house for sale soon though if you want it. Nice av BTW I'll look like your worst nightmare Jonesy when we meet up next. Might be doing a Wakey soon so we'll neck a couple o cold un's fella. T'other half's doing Morecambe as well so I don't have to sleep with an eye open this year Thanks for the records Mark. Great to do business with you

Course your'e right Nev but some folks just want to get their post count up don't they Jonesy

So have I & if we're after the same things I'm 1st ya hear Jonesy. See you at Morecambe fella. Bargains galore on this list everybody.

Couple of steps back & a few deep breaths please lads & leave the modding decisions to us Mods.

Like I say Mark I'm pretty much with you on this. Think the recent glut of mash ups has happened for 2 reasons myself. Sure you'll agree with me on the first but maybe not the 2nd. First reason is down to bone idle DJ's who can't be bothered to get off their arses & play & promote current new releases. We both know this happens on a regular basis, the EMS/Hilton thread shows this up. Take my hat off (bet I get some more stick for saying that ) to folks like yourself, Roger, Lin etc who do go out & play contemporary new releases week in week out. Second reason though is I think it's been a really poor year for new release material. Know a hell of a lot of folks will disagree with me & I'd love nothing more than to be proved wrong but there was just not much new stuff that did it for me in the last 12 months.

With you on most of the 'mash ups' Mark but some of e'm work mate. Remember the Michael Proctor - Muthafunkaz mash up Julia Nicoll & myself were hammering a while back? Just wish we could have got the guy who did it for us to actually release it. Link below (had to do it this way as can't embed it for some reason). /more/soul-library/muthafunkaz-v-michael-proctor-fall-down Now with the right backing that could have been as big if not bigger than both of the originals IMVHO & would have been a worthy contender for this thread.

Brett, John, couple of steps back & a few deep breaths please. Don't want to have to lock an otherwise very good thread.

Bloody conspiracy theorist

Bloody hell Sean you're miles behind mate. Changed it twice since Pele the Blade. Anyway go have a listen to the Driza stuff on your 2010 tips thread that I very nearly posted on this thread instead. Be interesting to hear your opinion on them mate.

Be interesting to see how long it'll take folks to pick up on the soon to be released Drizabone album. A few samples on the link below to listen to. https://www.4shared.com/file/178427921/ccd2b379/Drizabone_Album_Sampler_2009_-.html

That's easy Ivor & you know I'm right as well. 2010 of course

Some great shouts so far but suprised this ain't been mentioned yet.

Was about 30 years ago when I was told this but it's nice to dream I suppose. Ditto.....

Sounds like the story I heard about Hawaii with loads of stuff sent over to military bases & radio stations. Think it was someone from Rotherham that told me, maybe Darran Arden? Also vaugely remember Pete Shirley's name getting mentioned. Tell you what Sean, you check out Vietnam & I'll go & check Hawaii
