  1. What's that supposed to mean ? Some are still on the scene, some are not and sadly some are dead.
  2. I was on the same as most other people, except for the idiots who were barbed out of their minds. It was a great time in my life as well, but I took it far too seriously & just could not cope with Murial Day, Judith Durham, Tony Blackburn & all those Casino Classics shite. The music might have been better at Yate in 78-79 but it can never mean as much to me as the Casino did.
  3. Ay up Shute Steve's going to email you.
  4. I took to walking round the town all night before packing it in alltogether. I must admit though the music improved a great deal after I stopped going regularly.
  5. I never danced to this & neither did any of my mates. I did get up & dance to Joe 90 once but I thought it was something else, once I realised what it was I didn't know what would make me look the biggest idiot, sitting down again or carrying on.
  6. I'm sure I heard a dog bark on Candy Staton's now you've got the upper hand.
  7. In the past it's had a negative effect in the short term but been good for the scene in the long run. I might never have got into it myself without footsee, This England etc but I don't think that applies today. I can't really see many youngsters discovering northern because of media coverage & it'll just turn us all into laughing stocks. I think people in bags, vests & beertowels look naff so if any 18 year olds did come, I think they'd soon piss off again.
  8. I've sold loads of LP's on ebay & as long as they look ok don't bother to play them all the way through if I'm not expecting them to make much. If I've been surprised & they've gone for more than I was thinking I play them all the way through before I send it, even though it meant listening to a triple album of shite in one case. With a $400 45 there's no excuse for not playing it first.
  9. Ain't no big thing must be one of the most covered soul songs, I know of around 30 issued versions & a few unissued ones. There's a fair few of Help Yourself as well, J&B Purify, Jimmy James, can't think of any more at the moment.
  10. I'LL NEVER FORGET THE LOOK ON SUE ROBBINS'S FACE WHEN SOMEONE PLAYED THE TAMS - THERE AIN'T NOTHING LIKE SHAGGING.
  11. DICKY DOO & THE DON'TS - DON'T COUNT ME OUT
  12. I've bid around $200 for this for a while now but it usually goes for about $230 so when I saw this one go for $710 I thought I'd left it too late. Just got it, vg++ for $199 though, that's the cheapest I've seen for a while.
  13. If I drop down dead tomorrow my wife can sell my records & make a profit but if I live to an old age I don't care what happens to the price cuz I wont be selling 'em anyway. Mind you, if the price did crash think of all the goodies I could buy.
  14. Just stuck it back on with PVA, wiped the excess off with a wet sponge, I'm pleased with the result so far.
  15. Had a Jackie Beavers on Dade stuck on my box once, but when i wanted to re-paint it, it was a lot harder to get off the box than it had been to peel off the record. I wonder what glue i used.
  16. This looks the best so far
  17. Ay up Shute I was offered a gold one about 6 weeks for £100 but it was covered in writing, I think the vinyl condition was ok though. Would have been fine for DJing with.
  18. First - Do It To It - Funky Sisters for me girlfriend or Here I Go Again - Archie Bell for meself Last - I Want A Love I Can See - The Temptations I'm not counting crap like My Heart's Symphony & Paper Tiger as I don't consider that northern
  19. I thought of using one of those pritt sticks but as the label is still just attached it'll be difficult to spread the glue on without folding the label back. I might moisten it & see if it'll come off completely.
  20. I've got a styrene record (Shawn Robinson) & the labels almost come off. Can anyone reccomend a glue that will not damage the label. Thanks
  21. I think that's the one I already know
  22. Someone's already asked this about 3 days ago, I think it only available to US sellers at the moment.
  23. Thanks Davie & Dollynormal. can anyone post the Hull version up ?
