Aaaarrrrrrrgh!!!!!!

Does the book spell the artist as Patton or Patten?

Should that be Patton? Or Patten? Patten is the correct spelling, yes? That quote from Manship's book could mean that both are originals, just that the one with title on one line has a daisy stamp, whilst the one with the title on two lines has an AIM stamp. What does the AIM mean?

Hang on, correct me if I'm wrong. The original as the title on one line with Patten not Patton c/w a daisy in the runout groove? A boot would therefore have the title on two lines with Patton not Patten without a daisy in the runout groove? What if I've got one with the title on two lines and Patten not Patton without a daisy in the runout groove? Or, better still, one with the title on two lines and Patten not Pattan c/w a daisy in the runout groove?

Can somebody throw up a scan of the boot with Patton? Still don't believe the proposition that the title should be on one line for it to be an original. Can somebody sustantiate this with proof / evidence?

Patten being the original and Patton being the boot? Correct? Can somebody throw up a scan of the boot with Patton? Still don't believe the proposition that the title should be on one line for it to be an original. Can somebody sustantiate this with proof / evidence?

the song title should be in one line You sure about this as I've had my import for more than 30 years and the title is on two lines. Not sure about the daisy though, I'll check when I get home.

Is there? How can you tell? What tell-tale signs are there?

Dunno? If we were going to put prices on these, how much for; UK copy US copy Canadian copy All in say VG++ condition

If I was going to sell one of my Alexander Pattens, which would fetch the most money, my UK copy or my US copy? Both are issues and both about the same condition, which is strong VG++

True...........

You HAVE done your homework, knowing that it was burnt down in 1903. Or, were you REALLY there . . . . . . Macloud?

Hmmm. Good points. What's your solution then?

I imagine it's the same today and I'm sure nobody objects to that. It's the playing of something more than a couple of times of records that have already been broken, or worse still, played out records being played 3 or 4 times in one night. Not when there is so many other good records to be played.

Can I have; 49. Steve Alaimo 4 track promo E.P 5135 with "I wake up crying " which is wonderful 60's midtempo. Chess paper sleeve.

Sorry, this is not an answer to your question, just me being inquisitive. I like that avatar. What exactly is it? I see '68 Remix. Does this mean it's a different take of the issued version?

"I would also say I dont think repeats of new stuff should be discouraged, I asked JT to play something a second time in one of his sets at Lifeline, although he refrained. Sometimes particularly today it is a good way to get things noticed for new stuff." That's a good point. Often, when a new 'discovery' is being pushed, it DOES need to be played more than once in a night, depending I suppose on how long the night is.

Hi Tommy

No, he's not saying that at all. This is what he said; "The writing down by the DJ wouldn't work for me. With 2 and a bit minutes records and people up on stage for requests, I don't have time. If I've been upstairs at the 100 Club working or just extra dozy, I ask someone who's stationed themselves at the front of the stage most of the night." And by that he means for him personally, it wouldn't work because he's busy running the venue as smoothly as he can, such that he doesn't get to hear everything that gets played before he does his spot, so he asks others what has been played in order to avoid playing something that has already been played. Now when he's a guest DJ, to the best of my knowledge, he normally turns up early, partly to listen to what's being played for a feel of what's working and also to avoid where possible playing something already played earlier, but the real truth is he'll have you believe, so that he can get pissed sooner.

Exactly. Well put Sir. That's what I said but put more eloquently.

And perhaps therein lies part of the problem, ego. Or perhaps arrogance. Or even sheer ignorance. Venue organisers should insist on it, afer all, thay are paying the DJs wages and they also want to keep their punters happy.

Unbelievable. I didn't know that but I'm glad I do now. That really hit the spot. It was very touching and I'm glad you posted it here on Soul Source. My old mate Frank Jackson, if he were alive today, would be blubbering tears all over the place right now as Darrell Banks was by far one of his all-time favourite recording artists. Thinking of you big fella. Dennis.

I haven't looked to see if anybody else has made the following suggestions, but here goes anyway; 1. DJs on later should be there early enough to listen to what's being played before he or she goes on. 2. If that can't be done, then perhaps each DJ should write a quick note of what he or she has played for the benefit of the DJs who come later, and the punters who have been there since it opened. There, hope that's not too complicated for anybody?

Happy New Year to you too 'Mel-da blue-nose'
