Media Talk - Movies and Tv
most people i've spoken to about film The Salt Path said that the book(s) were much better. I've not read the book(s), but did see the film recently and was pretty bored. The film leaves a lot 'unsaid'. For instance (and this doesn't give the plot away, because there is no real plot) why did the male lead lose his farm? what was the investment that went wrong? who was the lady (and her house/farm) where they spent months?, etc. I think it's a BBC film or asscoiated with them, so i wished i'd waited until it comes via TV, rather than make special trip to the cinema. https://www.google.com/search?gs_ssp=eJzj4tVP1zc0zC7MqDLKTqowYPTiLclIVShOzClRKEgsyQAAkq0J3g&q=the+salt+path&rlz=1C1CHBF_enGB1120GB1120&oq=the+salt+path&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqDQgCEC4Y1AIYsQMYgAQyBwgAEAAYjwIyDQgBEC4Y1AIYsQMYgAQyDQgCEC4Y1AIYsQMYgAQyBwgDEAAYgAQyBwgEEAAYgAQyBwgFEAAYgAQyBwgGEAAYgAQyBwgHEAAYgAQyBwgIEAAYgAQyBwgJEAAYgATSAQg4ODI5ajBqN6gCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Versions of Hello Stranger
I assumed we had, but I don't think we ever answered The OP's question from June 2009...who were Quickest Way Out. Willard Hines, Musical Director & Pianist. Bill King Bunni Bailey Patty Webb Howard Smith ( replaced by Craig Jones , think 1976) Willard Hines was a 1965 grad from Kentucky State Uni and moved to Detroit. He was vocal coach for The Jones Girls, Enchantments and Dramatics between 1968-1971. In the PIC, Willard is starting at the left.

Collection selling
your decision and anyone else making such a decision will have to reflect on what their collection might be worth, and then factor in their own financial circumstances. if you had a ÂŁ30k, ÂŁ50K, ÂŁ100k, upward collection then that would be a slightly different thought process than say if a collection was worth ÂŁ15K -ÂŁ20K, and then you would need to factor in what that money means to you.

Our fear of losing far, far outweighs our ability to win. Or at the very least “ give it a good go”.

Football - Topic
having watched England under Tuchel recently, and yesterday the U21's against Germany, i have to say how dreary it was. As has been said many times by others, we have a fantastic and exciting Premier league and below this level too, and yet our National teams are somewhat woeful at times, and it's like watching 'walking football'. Yes i get that non-Englanders play in teams in the Premier League, and that these make a difference, and yes our England team ( presently) might not be a full strength, but playing the way we are at the moment doesn't bode well for the World Cup.

Monarch Records - ever in vinyl?
some Monarch may have been pressed at AFM Engineering, nickel plating , etc. In 1965 the Cosnat Corp bought AFM Engineering ( & Record Labels Inc). AFM may well have been a subsid/division of Monarch. @Sebastian @Robbk I'm not sure where your ref to Alco Steel fits in? But, I don't think ALL the vinyl records that were pressed by AlCo (Allied Steel)

Monarch Records - ever in vinyl?
These '1041 N. Las Palmas Allied Co's' passed through several iterations of ownership but they kept coming back to Daken K. Broadhead ( he bought them back in 1962 from Tops Records/Precision Radiation Instruments). The pressing plant was at 57th St. He also acquired the Bellville N.J. plant along with it.

Sly Stone RIP
it seems silly now, but i remember as 17 yr old when me & mates first heard Family Affair debating what exactly was being said at the line 'Newlywed a year ago, but you're still checking each other out'. Thanks for the memories, great music. RIP

The Birth of Soul
i think HORACE SILVER ( DISCOGS: American jazz pianist, composer and bandleader, born September 2, 1928, in Norwalk, Connecticut, USA; died June 18, 2014 (age 85), in New Rochelle, New York, USA.) may have been ( one of the one's) credited with the term Soul Music.1960. At least 'his style was called Soul Music'.

Story on later Red Balloon Records having an LA address
I'm pretty sure ( some scrappy notes i have) that when Bob was talking to James Westbrook (5 wagers, deltas) he mentioned James taking lead on the Vows, 'when a boy loves a girl/east and west i go' and he said it was the 1st record on Red Balloon and was very obscure.
