  1. I also have the complete label. Great thread here on the subject from a few years ago, back when I was a couple short to complete the set, and was helped by a few kind Soul Sourcers (Pete Smith being one). Sean
  2. :lol: Dead right matey. Even Ward can't claim this un! (but I bet he'd feckin try!) Sean
  3. Sorry to sound picky chaps, but even Richard Searling himself would admit.... this was a Hampsey 'Niter' tune at Clifon, Cleggy and everywhere else (and everyone else ) thereafter! Not that it really matters LOL. Still sounds alreet don't it! Sean
  4. Crestfallen. No age. So sad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrRjmiWVGuU
  5. No mistaking this as the very first press of this classic 45! :0) Sean
  6. Hi Kev, You're absolutely right, but it was never off catalogue to my knowledge, so more a second press than a 2nd or later issue. In answer to the original question, it was never booted. Sean
  7. US Dynamo 114 Nev. As Kev says, was on catalogue and available from all decent Record shops until the early-mid 70's on UK Direction (I sold loads of em at the time). One of my early introductions to the music and still one of the greatest shit kickin' rave ups ever on vinyl! Sean
  8. Has a nice flipside too, cover of Eddie Floyd 'I've Never Found a Girl'. I have the yellow Demo too Pete (had it for 30 odd years). An issue, apparently, went for £300 recently... so 55 squid is a real bargain. Sean
  9. Sorry Mark, it wasn't me either. I wasn't quick enough off the Mark... this time! So, where did it end up? Anyone any the wiser? Sean
  10. I'd echo that Jason. Great job Phil. Very, very, tasty choices with lots I didn't recognise. Thanks a bunch, Sean
  11. And just found I have 2 copies of the Amber Antique release of 'SAY IT' backed with 'LOVE IS NOT A STRANGER'. Sweet! Sean
  12. Agree Tony. You're right. I just found my Dig copy with 'WHO AM I' on the flip of 'SAY IT'. Good double sider (IMO). Sean
  13. Hi Mate, "Gone For Good" is a cover of the OV Wright classic. Wait until you hear that version! :0) Sean
  14. I've got the 'Someone Will take Over' side for over 20 years. It plays an ok cover of Otis Clay's INCREDIBLE 'That's How It Is'. I've always understood it to have been mislabelled. Sean
  15. Brilliant, thanks Chalks. It was the scratched Matrix that made me question it, but now I see, its proper. What's funny is I even contributed to the old thread saying Rogers was just like mine... ...and it is! Senilty? Probably. Thanks mate. Sean
  16. Quite right Bob. Rookie mistake, wading in like that. Very disappointing Paul. Sean
  17. I'm aware of the RED Boot, but was this ever booted on a White Label double sided Promo? Had a copy since I was a lad. Looks right enough, but just wondered? Sean
  18. Yep, I remember Mick. Early 70's, before John Rose took over. Small world! Sean
  19. Guess someone made him an offer he couldn't refuse! :0) Sean
  20. Same at Just Soul, Mark. Folk arrive early doors to hear the Deep and Soulful stuff for the first couple of hours. It works well with the Just Soul crowd, because they appreciate quality soul, regardless of tempo. Sean
  21. Certainly was mate. Best playlist on the planet back then! Doobie Brothers 'Long Train Runnin' was a Monster! And Dave Growns was a God. :0) Did you go? Sean
  22. In one! Brought me right back that did! Brilliant. Sean
  23. Flipside of 'Our Favourite Melody' Rich, but only on the issues (demos are double sided). It's also on the 'Forever' LP which I used to play it from, before I realised it was on a 45 :0) Cheers, Sean
  24. ELO 'Showdown' is one of my favourite all time 'Soulful - Non Soul' records. In fact it was a pretty big tune at my fave Club in Rotherham, back in 73, played alongside the likes of Johnnie Taylor 'Who's Making Love' Jimmy James 'A Man Like Me' Blue Magic "Look Me Up" and Dean Parrish "I'm On My Way" etc. An eclectic and superb mix... and ELO fitted right into the groove! Sean
