I've always associated "Love is a trap" with Ady. But a quick search on here shows me that Ady got it off Mark as a swap for Ernestine Eady.

Classic Compilation Soul Albums with DJ Sleeve Notes
Woodbutcher replied to Peter99's topic in All About the SOUL
That's the "re-issue" that's not a reissue. A totally different compilation that happens to use the same sleeve as the "original" I assume the person who put out the first one had more covers printed than LPs pressed and decided to use them up on the second album , with a different rear tracklist simply stuck on the cover. Strange that you can buy it on Discogs as it's obviously a bootleg. -

The powers that be changed the General License a while back so we can't just 'remove' them as easily these days.

Just seen this post over on Facebook and thought I'd share it here ... From Ady at the 6Ts Rhythm and Soul Society. "Diane Davis has posted that her husband Jesse Davis, passed away this morning after a battle with Alzheimer’s. I met Jesse and Diane when Jesse came to sing at the 6TS Rare Soul weekender in Cleethorpes in 2009. Jesse’s Northern Soul classic ‘Gonna Hang On In There Girl’ had been a massive record since the days of Stafford all-nighters in the 80s and the chance to get the original singer on stage for our crowd was irresistible. Making the show even better were his earlier big beat ballads, some fabulous 70s recordings and a touch of jazz. Jesse was primarily a nightclub jazz singer, based on the west coast, living in San Diego and recording primarily in Los Angeles. His arrangers included Rene Hall, Arthur Wright and James Carmichael which is a measure of the quality of his voice in itself. His first recordings were on his own Jaboth label in 1965 and 1966 and included the atmospheric ‘There’s Room For Me’ and the captivating beat ballad ‘So Full Of Love’. Both records gained much attention from European DJs and collectors in the 90s that made them expensive and treasured items. In 1967 Herb Newman of Era records signed Jesse and cut him on the brilliant, uptempo Sherlie Matthews song ‘Gonna Hang On In There Girl’, it came out with two different B sides but failed to sell or attract interest until the Northern Soul scene eventually made it a dancefloor favourite. One of the flips, ‘Night Blooming Jasmine’, later caught on with jazz-loving mods and had a separate revival of its own. The Era follow-up ‘You Don’t Need A Crown’ was more pop than soul and failed to gain many followers. Concentrating on his live performance work, Jesse built a big following in California, particularly Palm Springs, where a date witnessed by Frank Sinatra would lead to Frank recommending Jesse to his Las Vegas contacts. They were happy to employ him in the city’s nightclubs. Jesse went back to releasing his own discs and came up with the excellent ballad ‘They Call Me Mr Lonely’ on his new Essence label; the song was penned by Kent Harris’ sister Marcine. There were several albums on Essence throughout the 70s, 80s and 90s, mainly recorded in San Diego for sales at his ever-popular gigs. UK Kent issued his self-penned ‘I Never Could Have Made It’ from his 1979 album “Hollywood Gypsies” on a Masterpieces Of Modern Soul” CD and several album tracks including ‘Hollywood Gypsies’ have been played at rare soul venues around the world. Australia became a second home for Jesse through his stage show and he spent many months there even rcording an LP during one stint. When back in California, he often worked on television shows and films, as both a singer and actor. He and Diane made lots of friends on their visit to the UK and we kept in touch through FaceBook and the occasional email. It was great to witness the pair out at local jazz clubs up until quite recently and though retired, Jesse would often be called on stage for a duet or to perform a jazz standard. He will be greatly missed at home and abroad.

A bit 'horses bolted' I know , but any time I've sold anything online , rarely I must add , I've made sure to take good quality photos of said item with a dated item , newspaper usually , just in case of this very scenario occurring.

Get recording it , can't beat a bit of entertainment like that ... Glad it's not just me ...

John Manship auction results Wednesday 21st August 2024
Woodbutcher replied to Frankie Crocker's topic in All About the SOUL
I think they're either incapable of doing an internet search or just too lazy. I see it everywhere , on numerous forums , covering a multitude of interests , where folk , rather than spend two minutes looking for themselves , would rather type a question on the forum and sit around for hours waiting for someone else to answer. -

Can't wait to see what the Poets on J2 reaches soon , he posted a video of it yesterday so I'm assuming it'll be added to the auction list soon. -

Greys are the only wildlife "dwindling" in my garden , on average over the last three years I've despatched between a hundred and twenty and a hundred and fifty per annum , none get wasted as I leave them in the secluded 'picnic area' for the Red Kites , Buzzards and Foxes to munch on. The joys of having Walnut and Hazel trees in the garden.

Lots of folk mistake queen wasps for hornets as they're considerably larger than the average wasp you see , when you see a real hornet it's unmistakeable , and the sound is the big giveaway , completely different to a wasp or any bumble-bee , very low pitched and menacing.

No Karl , the invasive Asian Hornet is actually a tad smaller than the native Vespa crabro ... And it's in no way becoming more prevalent , official figures here ... https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/asian-hornet-uk-sightings/asian-hornet-sightings-recorded-since-2016

Always had hornets here since as long as I can remember going back to my first encounter aged about four. Wonderful creatures in my opinion , I've got three nests in two different wooded areas in the garden , but they're no bother and their lofty flight lines keep them well away , although I do get the odd one or two join me in the summerhouse while I'm imaging as they like the wood for nest making , they're very impressive from three feet away ...
