  1. I have a very extensive US Motown collection which I am looking to move on as a job lot, including the main catalogue portfolio, (ie Gordy, Motown, Soul, Tamla & VIP), it isn't that far off a complete , and includes a large proportion of early obscurities, pic sleeves and promos/ authentic acetates. Please note I am unwilling to split, and will only consider genuine realistic enquiries, as this collection would have to be viewed, I would perhaps consider some part trades for Detroit items,but would prefer cash, so if you have an interest, please PM me for further detail. Thanx for reading wilxy
  2. Thanx guys, keep 'em coming cheers wilxy
  3. Hiya Adam, I'll take both please mate, please reserve, and I'll get back to you tomorrow, what was your payment preference, save me going back? cheers Mike Wilks

  6. I#ll take the Detroit city limits Derek, if still there
  7. Just a little misunderstanding-Contours on Gordy
  8. Deepest sympathy Ady Mike Wilks
  9. Lou Pride-I'm comin home in the morning ....Better make it a bouquet then
  10. Musically as a 16 year old, Black Music was my forte back then, and the track that stands out through varying reasons at the time was Freda Payne- Band of Gold, simply because it was one of the first tunes I remember on entering the beginning of the "real world"............... A long time ago and very surreal
  11. Used to have a black cat called Mojo, got him from the animal shelter some years back, a supposed witches cat with five toes( or claws seriously) lovely thing, seems tho' must have got mixed up somehow with the ex, as it turned out....and I kid you not
  12. I'm pleased to say I've managed to chalk off a couple more pied piper productions pieces at opposite ends of the "scarcity" scale, firstly with a Metros -Sweetest one on a dark red RCA promo? with the other being Lorraine Chandler- What can I do albeit on Giant, Happy days
  13. Thanx guys,I'd got a rough idea through John Manship's guide but being a lazy so & so, on times wanted a "second opinion" Eddie Hubbards article in There's That Beat is superb, and being personally a primarily Detroit collector, just got a hankering for several of the pieces, I don't own, I guess however patience is a virtue unless my numbers come up tonight Will tune in on Sunday to the show Mark albeit I will be at work, but nevertheless looking forward to it. cheers for the response wilxy
  14. Could anyone enlighten me as to an idea of the prices with regard to the RCA released Pied Piper Produced items , such as Willie Kendrick, Metros, Lorraine Chandler, Michael & Raymond etc. etc. Thanx wilxy
  15. Sorry in advance if slightly off topic, but I'm desperately looking to replace my "hoard" of Detroit City Limits fanzines produced by Graham Anthony "way back", so if anybody could point me in the right direction, I am looking to purchase the whole set if possible, but individual issues would suffice in the short term. thanx for looking Wilxy
  16. I was there with a few fellow South Walians, brilliant times
  17. I know where you're both coming from with the promotion / relegation issues, but the awkward thing remains the transfer costs.....although I suppose with the transfer window being closed, we'll have to rely on new discoveries
  18. Now I don't think I dreamt this, but a point pertinent to the latter paragraph, and albeit not a direct response track as such, the Four Tops-Same old song was in itself a reference in kind to the previous release I can't help myself. Basically referring to your opening line in the last paragraph, it does ask the question, but I suppose it was a case of striking whilst the iron's hot from Motown's perspective...and it worked well for them, and as we all know ......the rest is history.....interesting thread by the way
  19. Not if you take into account the 3 minutes to put his boots back on
  20. Saw Sam Dees on a couple of occasions, at both Southport weekender and was introduced to him by Rod Dearlove at the Canal Tavern Thorne, absolutely superb, was later to realise the significance of the lyrics to the heart wrenching "After all".....and at such a miserable stage in one's life think at that time, it was a song written for me personally
  21. Now come off it Pete, we know you can iron 45's......but cook 'em is a bit too much of a boast
  22. I think I may still have some original tapes Rod did for me back in the Thorne days, and I certainly have a few CD,s , will pm you when I get home midweek Alan
  23. Spot on Sean, and particularly with reference to Rod Dearlove breaking the mould, spent a few Great nights at the Canal Tavern.....seems like yesterday, and with regard to many of the great tunes, played by Rod himself, which were very innovative at the time in my opinion, a lot of which have become accepted generally nowadays and rightly so
