I am after a good playable Paula red issue copy of The Montclairs - Hung Up On Your Love. If anyone has this 45 for sale at a fair price can you pm me please.

Had Eddie Regan - Playin Hide And Seek turn up today, this was another Sound from the Casino era I really enjoyed hearing when I got into Soul/Northern Soul in the late 1970's...

I know what you mean Steve, trust me there's been plenty of times when I wish I never got hooked on these old Bangers!

What a relief for me my friend found this Thread a couple of nights ago while I was round showing him my Green Hib Promo styrene copy of Luther Ingram - If it's all the same that came in the post from Hesperia California this week, he had looked through the John Manship books and no sign of my record existing even though I was confident mine looked real enough with the Monarch stamp and was hoping it was a rare format of the track, so Big Thanks to everyone who posted on this thread that's put my mind at rest. Special for me the record came from Hesperia as that's the City I imported my 1969 Dodge Coronet from in 2006 never imagined buying a record from there, pic of the Dodge from Portland Bill Dorset included with the Single.

So sad to hear the news about Grant, I only knew him through buying records on the site and also on facebook, he came across as a lovely Man and you could tell straight away he had a huge passion for Northern Soul, R.I.P. Grant

Never hear this Station Road spin played out anymore Robert Knight - Branded apart from in my Front Room....

Friend of mine payed £350 for a Gerri Demo a few months back.

Had the Superlatives - I Still Love You arrive this week, great old school sound...…….

Most for me was a Black ABC issue copy of the Trends - Thanks For A Little Lovin paid £420 thinking I got a bargain for a rare record but then I got hit with import duty which put the final bill over 500.. Missus finally left me after that purchase....

No contest, Rita's vocals are perfect for the song, and what a sound for the Northern Soul scene, would kill a man for a copy...

I expect John is sat relaxing tonight sipping an ice cold Double J D Fair play to him...

Long term want arrived this week, Patti & The Emblems - I'm Gonna Love You A Long Long Time. for me this is Northern Soul Perfection.....

If your still looking for a copy of L J Reynolds Jayne, there are some on the Discogs Site.

I unfortunately had to attend a Family Funeral today, what I didn't allow for was this Soul Masterpiece from Roberta Flack to be played during the service when as you can imagine you could have heard a pin drop, it was just to much for me to take....

Had Sam And Dave - Soothe Me turn up today, I had the live version in the collection for many years and never got round to getting the original version until now.

Thank you Martyn, I will check that track out

I can't contribute much to this thread other than when my copy of Shirley & The Shirelles - Look What You've Done To My Heart arrived it had two 45's as stiffeners, Meat Loaf - dead ringer for love & Van Morrison with Cliff Richard - whenever god shines his light

Never fails to move me this Awesome Tear Jerker from Ray Pollard as it builds up to the last few lyrics telling his sad story with that incredible powerful voice, this is Soul Music at it's very Best...

I had The Harvey Averne Dozen Album arrive today from America, this was the only way I could afford to obtain Never Learned To Dance hopefully my friends will enjoy hearing it played out when my next do comes round....

To right Steve, I hadn't heard it before until three years ago when Ted Massey did a guest spot at a Soul Night here in Poole, it certainly got my attention.

Thanks Patto, if I owned a real one of this there would be serious Tear Drops if it got broken....

It just doesn't get much better than this tear jerker from Bobby Hutton - Come See What's Left Of Me

Added this Pure Dynamite Sound from The Royal Esquires - Ain't Gonna Run to the box this week..

There is a copy on Ebay Dave if your still looking.
