Yes Drew, Up The Gary Glitter! Sean

Oh really.........Can you afford a 'proper DJ' Mart? You know I always feel charitable around Christmas... and that I'll throw in a few freebies just to get me warmed up for the year ahead! Sean See you in Dub then Blake! Sean

No Blake, not a Legitimate one anyway! By Kev's standards even "Johnny Caswell" had a UK release! V. Happy Days Sean

Not a legit one in my reckoning, if at all. US "IN" only I reckon. Would be very surprised if it ever saw the light of day over here on a proper issue. But if it did, I want one. Sean

Hi Rob & Karen My 50th is in January... but I'm buggered if I know what I'm doing for it. Thoughts of a PITCHES stylee session somewhere? My Gal want's to take me to Dublin... but I fear she just might leave me there BTW Had a nice pm from Dave following his post. He knows I wasn't knocking Prestatyn.... Just enthused over Essence! Might even pay you a visit next time.... providing she lets me off the leash Sean

And, somewhere in a parallel universe.... https://www.djhistory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7215 A brief explanation, though not conclusive. Sean

Errrrrrrrr.... any day Chris..... any day! Got five done this afternoon. Balance tomorrow. Some cracking stuff on the ones received thus far. Sean

I'm sure I've read stuff about this guy before now. Well dodgy. Buyer Beware. (allegedly). Lo & Behold. He is now deregistered! Sean

Interesting publishing company! Sean

Sorry Roger, And apologies for lowering the tone. I don't know what got into me! Sean

Never done a Wife Swap then Rog? Sean

A bit too thick and fast for my liking!!! Four arrived this morning... but I only opened one to play on the way to the office (the great compilation from Alan Darker). I prefer time to absorb the music and feel playing one after t'other won't do 'em justice... in which case I'm asking for special dispensation to copy and send mine out in 2-3 months time Seriously though, my IT guy has just told me that they wont all fit onto one CD so I'm going to have to knock one of the tracks off the list (probably RJ's Latest Arrival - since it's already on Chris's Comp). Once he's got it sorted we'll get them out, hopefully b4 the weekend. Tremendous standard so far guys. Just love hearing stuff (of this calibre) that I don't already know. Cheers Sean

Sean whos the lady on the record cover? thats seems more interesting 2 me!!! For Bogue & Ezzie... and others who have been curious enough to ask, the Avatar is the Picture Cover to a Portuguese 45 of Sam Dees Chess recording "Love Starvation / Maryanna". Apart from being a great record and a real nice Sam Dees rarity... it also has a picture of the beautiful young Maryanna in White Fishnets, so, you could say that, in one foul swoop, I have my two great loves all wrapped up in one Avatar! Sean

Just done that. Other than Chi-Lites stuff can only find "Chocolate Lover"? Good luck! Sean

You're welcome. Hope someone comes up with the answer... cos i'm curious now! Cheers Sean

I saw Marvin live. "What's Going On" "Let's Get It On" The whole nine yards. Had he the greatest ever Soul voice?... probably not. Was he a great performer?... My God Yes! Was he a genius?... Quite probably. Marvin was an enigmatic kinda fella (as our friend Dave used to say) and he was also a prophet forseeing his own declining mental state. If you listen to one of his last... and yet finest recordings, "It's Madness" you'll hear the sound of painful anguish in every lyric and beat as he struggled to maintain his own sanity. He knew what was coming, the pain, the suffering, the torment and the prophesy was in that song. One of the greatest recordings in Soul Music's long history from a true genius. Maybe we dont 'all' love the late Marvin Gaye. But I reckon most of us do. Sean

Dunno then. I've got a 45 somewhere where Donnell Pitman is the lead vocalist on a Group track. Can't remember what it is though? Might that be it? Sean

Your Love Is Dynamite?

Love "The Makings Of You" "Give It Up" and "Love To Keep You In My Mind" ...to name but three! Also, just about everything with the Impressions. Good call Rich. Sean

Not as good as yours Maark... but whatever turns ya'

If we can include Various Artists L.P's.... Motown Charbusters Volume 3 gets my vote Life Changing! Outside of that "MPG" Marvin Gaye and "Artistry" Brenda Holloway take some beating. Must agree though that "Tempting Temptations" and "Temptations Sing Smokey" are priceless. Sean

Love "Now He's Home" Gareth. Played the 45 on Little Star a few times down in the Deep Room. Sean

Four Seasons / Rudies. Great Call! Scarborough was certainly a top place early - mid 70's. Sean

Bless you my son. Yes, you have the hair, but there's far more Silver threads amongst the Gold these days. Stay home and listen to Wogan. Much more dignified for a man of your years. Sean
