Hi Folks, Well, here I am again asking if anybody has a copy for sale of; Captions - Turn Out The Lights Please PM me if you have, with a price. Thanks.

At the time of the Soul Source 'nervous breakdown' a few weeks ago, I made a request for some mp3's. I got a few but the one I was really after was; Captions - Turn Out The Lights Can somebody please oblige? PM me if you like. Thanks in advance. PS - one or two more I'd like; Laurel Aitken - I've Been Weeping & Crying Nai Bonnet - Jelly Belly Derrick Harriott - Psycedelic Train If anybody has Captions for sale please PM me with your price.

Since the unscheduled / unexpected forum shutdown, all of the info regarding this Lp has disappeared. Whomever it was that I was in touch with regarding that arranged sale please contact me either here or by PM. Thanks.

No matter how much I dislike a record, I would NEVER break it or damage it on purpose!!! Records are the Holy Grail to me. No matter how much you might dislike a record there will always be 'somebody else somewhere' that will like it and perhaps even cherish it. If you've got a record you dislike THAT much, don't break it, give it away to somebody that does like it, or sell it to a dealer for buttons and let somebody else have the opportunity to own it.

Cheers matey, will do.

Great tune AJ.

Lighten Up Dave . . . . . And who needs an excuse to turn to drink. Only 4 hours until I finish work. Can't wait for a pint. It's been a long hard slog today. Thanks also go out to Gene-R for his initial valuation.

Effin awesome!!! Pity about the price.

Even after food poisoning? Here's hoping you're well again and that you make it down to th'Hideaway.

Hi Kev, Good to see you back up and running.

Well done Pete. That's very useful. Thanks. But you watch, you'll get some that will add extras on for their time, certain other overheads, petrol to Post Office and back for example, etc, etc, based on the fact that they are 'running a business'. Which, within limits, is understandable. The cost of p&p when selling by collectors is kept low because, well that's just the way we are. But 'dealers' see it differently. I know you buy and sell just like a dealer but you still think like a collector. I only wish everybody else did too. I'm currently arguing about p&p from the States at nearly $13. Yes, 13 effin Dollars.

Nice one. Never even seen an import of it before. Now I've seen both in one. Actually, I meant a UK Demo of the Instrumental. Get out of that one

Ha! I always wondered about that. Good info. Thanks.

I don't get it??? Why advertise it to the World there's a UK issue, until you've got one . . . . or is that it, you've got one and are now advancing it's value? You little tinker AJ

What About The Music - Billy Harner plus I'm sure, hundreds of others.

And that's big on the Funk scene you say? All's I can say is that Funk sure has changed from what I understood it to be. And you're correct, it is quite messy and as you also say, difficult to get your feet around. Now I've seen you dance in Oslo but couldn't imagine you dancing to this one. So why the £3000 price tag? Is it some kind of 'requirement' to have in your DJ box? No offence intended here so please don't take any. Just curious.

Now THIS has been a great thread to follow. Well done Missy!!!

I like Mik's view on instrumentals here and I now think I understand how it is that we are agreeing to disagree. My perspective comes more from an R&B standpoint, like Mik's I think, rather than a Soul / Northern Soul standpoint. He is 'in tune' with what most of you were trying to say when he said, "don't think the traditional Northern Soul song structure & beat is the best format for them to work. They nearly always sound like a vocal's missing to me." I wish I had said that 'cos he's mostly correct, although there are some instrumentals that transcend the need for vocals / lyrics in my opinion, and a few others too, when they mention some of the wonderful instrumentals quoted earlier in this thread. So, thanks Mik for clearing that matter up but I guess somebody will disagree and we'll probably start the whole thing all over again. I hope not. But it has been a good discussion so, well done that person who started this topic off in the first place. I think you should finish off this thread with some final words of your own on the matter. Have a brilliant Easter everybody. I fly back home to the UK tomorrow for a whole week with family, friends, good sounds (instrumental and vocal ), proper food, and decent beer at an affordable price . . . . . can't wait.

'WHAT?' .............a touch hard of hearing are we? No? It's an expression of surprise. 'Why would it be so painful to play a set of instrumentals?'................the pain is that I feel deep inside, the wasted opportunity to lay a quality soul vocal over a searing 4/4 northern back beat. So, you NEVER play instrumentals at all??? So, what gives with all this purastistical rubbish about Soul music deriving it's direction and 'meaning' from the lyrics?................if thats the question you'll NEVER understand the answer. I could have written that question in a better way but I was finishing my third pint of N¸gne IPA at 7.5%ABV at the time. Of course Soul music is a lot about the lyrics but it's also just as much about a feeling, which can still be derived from an instrumental. You neglected to include in my quote the bit where I continued to state, "we dance to the rhythm, NOT the lyrics!!!" Tell me that's not true??? Like I said, we must agree to disagree otherwise we will be here all day. And I STILL think it's a good idea!!!

You stated, amongst other things, "As for instrumentals having soul, your having a giraffe arnt ya mate, I'm not saying that instrumentals arnt good dance records in some cases, but the vocal is what adds the real soul & I doubt any sane person could argue with that." So you agree then that instrumentals have Soul, it's just that the vocals add 'real' Soul. Is that not what you just said? Now I've never argued that it's not the vocals that adds 'real' Soul to an instrumental but instrumentals can have Soul, which is why we all rave over the likes of Exus Trek, etc. Some records almost ooze Soul, or R&B, whatever. Cast your mind back to the last time you said to yourself, oh my God, just listen to the lyrics/vocals on that record, I just gotta get up and dance. Chances were it was always the rhythm that got you going first, then as you listened more closely to the record and grew fonder of the record the 'real' Soul of the record kicked in via the vocals/lyrics, or the 'real' Soul. Well, on dance records anyhow, which is what Northern Soul is mostly about, dance records, right? But with Soul of course. That goes without saying. Or does it? Look at periods in the history of Wigan Casino. But that's best forgotten about eh. Obviously, there is a LOT more to Northern Soul records than just it's ability to make you hurl yourself toward the dancefloor so that you can dance your little socks off and everybody has their own opinions on what makes a good Northern Soul record, but we won't go into that here. Anyhow, I think this discussion needs closure, so I suggest that we just agree to disagree. I love instrumentals and could listen to a few hours worth no problem. It would seem that I'm in the minority of perhaps 2 or 3 so will concede that it probably wouldn't work . . . but it's still a good idea. I'm off quick before the next hail of opposing comments. Been nice winding you all up.

Hello Missy, Got the first one already. Don't know the Tomko. Not as good as Big Noise though is it, bit messy. Seeya Friday night, as I'll be with Mace when we come to pick you up for the 'DUDLEY-DOO'.

???? Nah, you're WRONG. See my last posting.
