One things for sure, if I ever get a suitable female vocal to cover up I'm gonna say it's Bessie Mae Futtock on ShitShack. Great c/u name Nick! :0) Sean

SOS In Lanzarote. Can't get to a Record Store to save my life! HELP!!!! Sean SO.....

I'd recommend everything on this here CD. :0) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B003WRK0OE/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1303224338&sr=8-1 Check it out for less than a fiver, with soundclips too! Sean

Only "Northern Soul Hot Cakes" though Mikey!

The Elliot Small is a rare one. Took me an age to find. Sean

Grrrrrrreat stuff Dave! :0) Sean

cant right now Kev I'm out of the country. Thanks for the Joe though! Sean

Don't know if anyone mentioned Joe Hinton's "Got You On My Mind" yet but there's a pretty hard one which is sure to have it's day someday! Amongst my face sides of all time is O V Wright's immortal "Nickel And A Nail" - absolutely essential! Sean

One of the greatest Soul records of all time here folks. Sean

Ok. I'd be interested in the other one if it's still going. Pm me. Cheers, Sean

All confirmed to be safe and well Paul, thank God. Sean

Just heard that everyone survived, thank God. Have just seen a photograph and, sadly, it confirms that the Studio is destroyed. Shocking news. Sean

Just received very bad news, that Malaco Studios was totally destroyed today in a Tornado. Hoping everyone is ok but still waiting to hear. Malaco - the last Soul company - recorded much of the finest Soul Music of the past 40 years. This is a devastating loss to our music and heritage. Sean

The flipside "Hold On" has always been a huge fave of mine. Fabulous record. Sean

Steve Plumb had one in his Sales box this weekend. Sean

Bottom b/w pic looks like Bobby Hebb or Ronnie Dyson. Sean

Malc will remember a day he and I spent upstairs at Robs around 25 years ago. Can you remember Earl Van Dyke 'The Flick' Malc? Thought we'd stumbled on a rarity! :0) Early 80's I sold Rob 3 carloads of 45's - a large part of my collection at the time. Boxes and boxes of Okeh, RCA, Atlantic, Stateside, London, Action.... I remember him saying 'this is a 'real' collection" and it certainly was. Wish I could buy em all back now, at the price he gave me for them! LOL Sean

Very sad news. So many great records. Such a fabulous voice. RIP Sean

Tommy Ridgley "Did You Tell Him" is an all time fave. Superb Soul record. Sean

Always loved 'How Could I Help But Love You'. One of my fave 'early' 45's! Sean

Way to go Kev! Sean

Yes indeedy. Is it for sale? Please let me know if is is. Sean

Received the 45 at the weekend. Thank you Paul. Got to say folks, it sounds incredible. The Mastering is Top Notch 45 quality! Will be great being able to play it out LOUD in future (as opposed to off the album). Worth mentioning, the big bonus for the Northern Scene is the equally fabulous flipside 'Giving Up My Heartaches'. This side is a real sleeping Giant for any Northern DJ and a favourite tip of my 'Just Soul' buddy Tats Taylor (a guy with the ears to spot a really good tune, believe me). This is another superb and well thought out release from Shotgun. Crossover Monster on the Topside - Sleeping Giant Fingersnapping Northern on the Flip! Brilliant job mate. Oughta sell by the shedload. Sean

Which is why Tats asked him if he had 'vowel problems' Obviously way too subtle for some, but it slayed me! :0) Sean

I'd have said Rosen until only a few months ago, at a Record Show in Pennsylvania, we met up with the Count. After 20 minutes hardballin' over records, Tats asked him if he had 'vowel problems'. I died. Sean
