  1. PS.. I also like northernsoulradio.co.uk , always three nice modern tunes and I can listen to it whenever I want .
  2. Yes very true . I started the thread remembering that era , but it went astray
  3. Richard Searling Smooth FM ... great show Simon
  4. Ronnie Barnes " You got me" Hughes ... It was in Soul Sam's pile and not mine at Soul Bowl
  5. I think Simon T ,might have one on here
  6. Yeah I know Baz ... However just for the thread this is an oldie , check Kebs shows on www.soul45.org he Introduces it as an oldie . Hundreds more oldies like this btw all probably packed away in modern collections Simon
  7. This is a well known Oldie . Just ask Robin S and Simon T
  8. Too true , I blame record dealers and promoters for all these labels
  9. Yeah well modern was born from Northern ... I hope Glyn Thornhill gets his book out on the birth of Modern Soul soon .
  10. The only thing better than Vinyl is a life performance or a studio thingy ...( Who remembers The Memphis Soul Revue when Marti Pellow got Wet)
  11. Ok, maybe a 40 year old record that's been kept in good condition sounds "pretty good", but a 40 year old cd (even though they are not that old yet would be truer to the original source. The reason your 5 year old cd has skips is because it was not stored and handled properly and the surface has become scratched etc. This happens with vinyl too though it will actually play sounds that are not true to the original source. A cd will play only 100% or nothing And therefore Vinyl is more resilient. A big plus
  12. Well you'd think it would be extinct now !! Deejays and collectors still use it so I guess , thats why its still around . people should have a choice IMVHO . .. 12" EPs should be cut from the CD only releases for us Vinyl Junkies ? Simon M
  13. If ya got todays Big sounds , Manships gotta be best on the Auction page ...
  14. Vinyl is king because in my experience a Cd can f**k up and that's it you cant recover it a laptop with all your downloads ie 30 gb of pure soul can crash and not be recovered , Ipods can die too ( There was a TV prog on it ??) Analogue sound is cool to these ears ..Vinyl Deejays and collectors keep it alive please.
  15. Yep , Thats right ,
  16. Some of em were expensive first then went a lot cheaper King Tutt , Alex Taylor spring to mind Simon
  17. Was massive for Tam Jackson in Scotland , but they love a bargin
  18. Luckily the deejays gave us a rest and played some mid tempo
  19. Keep digging out those cheaper sounds and look for the ones on obscure lables , they wont stay cheap for long . is this one still cheap Eddie Holloway "Somebody smooching my love" Cheers Simon M
  20. Oh yeah , was played at Rare groove nights too . I think
  21. Can anyone still dance to these . You remember the style when the Modern scene was born . How did we do it ?? !! ,( No wonder I had a six pack back then and hair ) Simon M
  22. Curtis Anderson, Brown Bag release was actually given away to a few deejays of the time (late 1988 if I remember rightly) The record dealers were from Middlesborough , I received my free copy at Southport .However the hundreds that they had expected never turned up . As for the label damage that Manship describes, I've never seen that on a copy of this record ever.
  23. That was Pat Brady with the White Test press .
  24. Just love voices like his ... For dancing though .check out his revue stuff and more modern RCA outings "I quit running the sreets " and the most popular "Dont let love walk out on us" Simon M
  25. Best to try Ebay ,Dodger Cheers Simon M
