  1. Now sorted out with seller ( he's had family problems). Thanks for all your help. Cheers Julian
  2. Thanks for all the replies. I did request a final payment figure via ebay and have subsequently emailed him via ebay to request total again. I have now just mailed via ebay again to tell him I am giving him a couple more days before I file an ebay complaint. I will keep you posted. Julian
  3. Won a 45 on 17th Feb. UK seller based in Darlington sold in $ with no postage costs. Asked for a total price on the day and have followed up with a separate email requesting full cost. Not had a reply. Now, I realise the seller may be on holiday, but I would have thought it would have mentioned it in the sales blurb. Not a high price item, but my bid was a reasonable price. Can the seller refuse to sell ( surely he should have placed a minimum bid, if he required a minimum amount?) Any thoughts of how I can get this sorted. Thanks Julian
  4. Spent some time with Sidney barnes a couple of years ago. He told me that when he recorded 'Standing on solid ground' Mr Levine suggested that they put it out 'as a 60s recording' !!!!! Sidney told him to 'bugger off' - NOT literally I hope! Julian
  5. Hi Phil can't pm you :angry: . Will you contact me off list please via pm system? Julian
  6. Hi Keith I probably agree with you, however the clientele at my local cricket club are more likely to have heard the JT version on the radio!! Mrs B is very well. We keep going to the Greatstone ( don't ask me why!). You need to attend and view my sales box!!! Cheers Julian
  7. Hi, I'm doing a 60s soul night early April and would like this to play. LOOKING FOR AN ORIGINAL POLYDOR PRESS NO.56709. MINT copy preferred. TIA Julian
  8. Can't be rare if I've got one! Julian
  9. Pm'ed you. julian
  10. Yep, got one somewhere in the pile.
  11. No point Pete, I've already emptied it!
  12. Yes, Boltonsoulman, I did indeed!!! Bloody sniper Eccles.
  13. As it's unlikely I'll get an Eddie Parker version, has anyone got the above for sale please ( original only thanks). Still looking for;- Bobby Kline Danny Monday Rita & Tiaras Hoagy Lands - Stateside. Anyone, please!
  14. Hi derek thought they had a branch in Bradford on Sunbridge Road ( just down from the Co-op in Sunwin House). Also, one in Cleckheaton ( which I used to raid in the late 60s) on the way home from Grammar School. Julian
  15. Thanks Dave, better NOT put it in the playbox, or I might get lynched! Great tune by the way. Thanks for 'finding' it. Julian
  16. Was " I never never knew" played at Wigan? I'm doing an 'oldies/Wigan' night tomorrow at Mansfield and need to know! TIA Julian
  17. PM'd you. Julian
  18. Not going to work for Rich at Eley Long are you? Julian
  19. This was the first ever 'cover-up' I can remember. Dave Godin gave it to John Bollen/Franny Francisco to get played around West Yorkshire at clubs like Lord Jims, Hernies, Victory Lounge, The Wellington etc. As you say, spine tingling music. Now to soul club to give it a listen! Julian
  20. Sorting some old papers out and came across the wife's old Wheel and Torch membership cards + the one listed above. It's yellow, dated on the top 27.11.70 with some sort of motif in the top r'h corner. The strange thing is under the Double Decker Disco title it reads " This ticket to be exchanged with waitress for evening meal or to be deducted from the grill menu" - yeah, like we were going to be eating!!!!! Overleaf it simply says FRIDAY with the written number 178. I can only think this is a 'Blue Orchid' card. Can anyone confirm? TIA Julian
  21. Thanks for the information everyone. Reason for asking, was that I was playing a what I thought was a blank B side of a 45 to a LP track only I had cut to play out, and this track has been cut on the B side!) The strange world on Northern Soul !! Gonna play it at Barrow in Furness Charity do tomorrow night. Julian
  22. Heard a record by him called Sad Sad Way (?) - same backing as Sidras Theme. Can anyone shed any light on this ( can't find it listed) TIA Julian
  23. Is it on your playlist for Prestwich Friday? Julian
  24. Talking to a fellow collector today, he informed me that he had just supplied Butch with an emidisc of an unreleased tune that he intends to start playing. Imagine his horror when I told him he had provided one to me about 3 years ago as a B side to an LP track only A side he got done for me ( I don't normally carry LPs around to 'play out'). Now waiting for the aforementioned B side to go big. Could be a bit of profit in it! Julian
  25. Spoke to Ginger Taylor on Thursday at the Funk Brothers Concert - he told me there is massive opposition to the Ritz being demolished and that it appears to currently have a 'stay of execution', so could be open for a long time yet.
