  1. Thought it might just be easier to just post a link to his channel rather than umpteen individual tracks as there are loads to see there ... https://www.youtube.com/user/ILMJXXX/featured?pbjreload=10
  2. They claim it's a one-of-a-kind item so sole vendors , hence the price I guess. Any decent machine shop could turn one up in ten minutes so I'd be hunting around for a local machinist if I wanted one.
  3. And two guys based in the East that deserve more widespread 'work' are Ely's Phil Rains and Norwich's Frank Webster , both have immaculate taste and are not afraid to avoid the run-of-the-mill and spin great lesser known , underplayed but classy tunes ...
  4. Kev and Denise Draper are very much on form still ...
  5. Must add Alan Kitchener and Colin Law to the list ...
  6. Find another mint unplayed copy .....
  7. Perhaps there should be a mandatory box to fill whilst listing a do in the Events Guide , i.e. "Number of attendees at the last one (not including DJ's and their box-monkeys and bar-staff)" ... that would certainly be a good pointer as to whether a roadtrip was in order ...
  8. As I've said in the past , there are way too many events on these days , but it's very easy to separate the wheat from the chaff and probably 80% of the things listed can be dismissed as 'to be avoided' by the ones who care. Can remember when a whole few months worth of soul nights and nighters could be listed on a two page event guide in Manifesto ( and 1/3 of the space was taken up with a bloody great map ) , whereas today one Saturday night's worth would fill three pages of said comic.
  9. Can see new wannabe promoters setting up events while being blissfully unaware or uncaring of what else might be on locally to them , but I find it hard to believe that anyone would deliberately waste their hard-earned starting up a night just to deliberately ruin another promoters event ... Do you have hard evidence to back the claim that you will share or is this just the product of an overactive imagination ... ? Long gone are the days of calling in bomb-scares to scupper niters , can still remember standing outside the Wirrina shivering that night ...
  10. You're obviously attending the wrong events then ...
  11. No contest here , The Camaro's by a country mile ...
  12. Real one is on Decca.
  13. On the TV no , just type "Northern Soul documentary" into YouTube for umpteen results ...
  14. Dreadful news , had many a great night in Dave's company , especially back in the 90's at the 100 Club or those superb niters at Cottons in Stockport. Always the gentleman and time a plenty for anyone , will be sorely missed on the scene and everywhere else for that matter , R.I.P Dave ...
  15. Guessing that this is Kim's copy now up on Discogs (kim_marie1977 ?)
  16. With Mr Randazzo at the controls there can only be one winner of this one ...
  17. It's kosher , but the 'first' issue is , I'm lead to believe , the CH-115 press with the smaller text.
  18. Already been written most of it ... it's called "Soul Source" ... You just need to do a little legwork yourself and trawl through the extensive archive of info , tales , tall tales and other fairy stories all under one roof here .
  19. As I said "most of us are grown-ups" , guess that you don't fall in that category , maybe you should reread the site guidelines.
  20. Most of us are grown-ups on here but there's no need for the profanity , however much you dislike the tune ...
  21. Starts at 11:45 to save you waiting ...
  22. Well this undoubtedly wins the "Comedy Sale of the Century" ... https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/123406521241?ul_ref=https%3A%2F%2Frover.ebay.com%2Frover%2F1%2F710-127635-2958-0%2F16%3Fitm%3D0%26user_name%3Dcasinocasualty%26spid%3D2386202%26mpre%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.ebay.co.uk%252Fi%252F123406521241%26swd%3D2%26mplxParams%3Duser_name%252Citm%252Cswd%252Cmpre%252C%26sojTags%3Ddu%253Dmpre%252Citm%253Ditm%252Cuser_name%253Duser_name%252Csuri%253Dsuri%252Cspid%253Dspid%252Cswd%253Dswd%252C%26srcrot%3D710-127635-2958-0%26rvr_id%3D1703294974762%26rvr_ts%3D7291c9c91660a68cb857626bffffa01d
  23. The thing that tips 70's soul over into unlistenable disco to me is that horrendous synth laser drum sound ... that used on Anita Ward's "Ring My Bell" and such like. Like fingers down a blackboard to these ears and has me scurrying outside for a fag-break every time .
  24. Nice one Karl ... And there was me thinking the Charades was a Dave Thorley spin ...
