  1. Superb new Australian drama series "The Narrow Road to the Deep North" has me hooked after half of the first episode.
  2. As you've both proved unequivocally , it's all a matter of opinion. And that the gear was soooooo much better back in the day ...
  3. You want to pop over to Discogs and listen to some of the shockingly bad covers of UMT that actually made it onto vinyl. I'm sure the Garage fans love them but how Wayne Gibson ever made it onto a 'soul' scene I'll never understand ... Uncle Johnny must have had his fingers crossed behind his back whilst dictating his patter for this one ...
  4. Bumpy's back for Season 4 ...
  5. I suspect it was not malicious but an accident by a contractor working up there , the video footage shows nothing to suggest it was deliberate.
  6. The Sirens cut is now online for any garage fans that might like to hear another version.
  7. Just started on Kevin Bacon's new comedy horror tongue in cheek gorefest "The Bondsman" , it'a hoot ...
  8. If the Traditions is rated at 10x rarer than the Parisians why do the prices on Popsike say the opposite ... ?
  9. They're members here on Soul Source so you could ask them direct ... https://www.soul-source.co.uk/profile/2594-md-records/ @Md Records
  10. Bandcamp doesn't own the label . it's just an online distribution set up , great way for small independent artists to get their product out there , nothing sinister about it , quite the opposite in fact.
  11. I probably should have written in the past tense so as not to give folk the wrong impression but I'm far too honest and "never say never again" is my way of thinking ...
  12. My preferences would change depending on how good the gear is , the better the gear the less fussy I get ...
  13. The backing of the demo is much closer to that of the "What Four" recording , a kind of 'Munsters' feel to it , the GV track is completely different. Completely different credits too on the GV label , presumably these are just a fabrication for pseudo-legal purposes ? Very interesting. As a side note , there's another version on an EP by the boisterous all-girl garage band "the Rosalyns" in 2014(with the same credits as the demo/What Four) I wonder where they heard the song ?
  14. I've always assumed the 'Happy Cats' on GV and the TM acetate was merely a demo cut for the writers/publishers. The song consequently being re-recorded later in a more polished way by 'the What Four' and released on Columbia (Publisher named as T.M. Music Inc.) I have a very vague recollection of a 3am conversation about it in some dark corner of a nighter about thirty years ago but with whom and where I cannot remember.
  15. Similar tales of Carol Anderson on Whip , I know there were hundreds sold way back in the late seventies for about £5 , but they're all seemingly tucked away in collections and unavailable and have recently topped £2000 ....! One stone minter resides in my grubby hands that I'll never let go , but I did have to give Andy Rix £90 for it in about 1996.
  16. Well if he let the first one go for $2000 I can hardly see the rest going for $3500.
  17. Looks to me like it ended but the winning bid wasn't what he wanted or hoped for so he had a hissy fit , and he's now relisted it at a price he deems more to his taste.
  18. Last four through fleabay have all topped a grand and three of them in the last few months so I guess there's a new surge of demand for it , has Uncle Butch been playing it again or has someone in the south-west just heard it ... ?
  19. I've seen a few over the years but never in good enough condition to tempt me.
  20. Very sorry for voicing an opinion Chief Superintendent ...
  21. Hummed and hawed a tad too long and missed the Syl Johnson , at what I thought was a steal , no doubt if I'd bid it'd have taken off again so it'll remain a life-long want ...
