So if you stored all your factory records together you'd knacker your valuable joy Division 12in!
BTW FAC 8 is a classic!
Sorry - going off topic a bit - not soul
Not strictly the vinyl, but I've got this Durutti Column album (The return of the Durutti Column) in the loft in a plastic bag on its own.
Cover was designed by the great Peter Saville and is made of sandpaper!.... designed to destroy the sleeve of any record it is stored with. Bloody arty farty designers. I love the album and the sleeve btw!
I would wager that if Jack White is involved it'll be proper analogue mastering - he's fiercely keen on authentic recording and mastering processes from what I gather. I hope so anyway.
Terry Westhead at the Soul Shack a few years back played a string of records, which were pretty much my top five....one after the other... incredible. Rest of his set just topped it off. A real defining moment for me.
Best thing to look for is the 'MR' monarch stamp - the boots tried to copy the stamp but it looks more like a squiggle, which may be your 'jt'. The real Mccoy has a definite 'MR'.
Not posted much this year but still drop by most days. Merry Christmas to everyone on here, and thanks for the facts, the stats, the laughs and the passion!
My Soul Source bud Bazza, (who I haven't seen for ages) lives near Amsterdam and he used to fly to Birmingham, hire a car, drive to Mansfield to go to Kingsway, Grosvenor rooms etc...
Did it for quite a while although he's gone awol these days.
Strangeloves 'Night Time' used as backing for the new Stella advert... just sounds so random, crap all to do with the advert, which is set in Victorian times with a bloke trying to sell Wimbledon tickets!
So, until the next one.....
Thought you'd get at least one reply Chris.... I've never seen a copy of this but I'm sometimes a bit suspicious of double siders with different artists, spartan looking labels with little or no info on etc...
...cue loads of examples to prove me wrong..
Still plenty of clapping today at oldies venues.... Cause your mine - "dadadadadadada CLAP!", Outro to That's Not love, "You Should have held on...CLAP!....a little tighter" seems to be Wigan oldies and earlier though - any later discoveries with the clap?
