THINK THATS A GREAT endorsment of REFO-SOUL 9/10 aint bad -think as soon as most get the hang of usb then we are gonna have a massive site of soul music for everyone -its great when new people hit the threads and start posting as everyone has such different taste -i learn all sorts every week -and long may it continue!! BAZ A Gareth X is right also you tube is brill for knowledge of the musics context often really surprises me -bit more resonant when the creators of the music are involved instead of the djs !! I always go straight to refo soul if there is somthing I spot on e bay that looks intresting and I don't know it. And 9 times out of ten is is here. then I search the old sales forums on here for an idea of on price - quick look on popsike and the main dealers. Then I return to e bay for the chase. I am sure this would be standard practice for on line diggers and members on here when it comes to stuff that you dont know ? refo must be the largest database of Soul related music on the internet. Refo is a credit to the admin team and the members of this site who have taken the time to post the thousands of recordings. All Baz Atkinsons massive threads - Pete Smiths jamaican section etc etc. etc If you are into your Music you can spend hours n hours on here. As for ripping things / downloading things you can always put a little gap in the tune if you want to make it difficult for the bootleggers. Anything that goes through your computers soundcard or video card can be ripped - the softwares out there and there aint nothing anyone can do about it ! Best M

chalkys right re ref-soul it is an immense library of incredible stuff -particulary seventies were up to 163 pages of stuff on the crossover thread and every week-there keep coming thick and fast -brilliant -Ian is right ive stumbled on all sorts on obscure sites and you tube is awesome particulary for funk the last 5 tracks i posted on the funk thread were straight of you tube!! The romantacism with finding rare stuff etc -went along time ago for me it simply rarely happens these days mainly because of the longevity of the british soul scene however theres thoushands upon thoushands of interesting records to be had and you can latch on to stuff from all places online etc-going to us record fairs etc keeps the fire burnning for me but thats for the social reasons etc. Hunting records and going out are now 2 different things imho [never used to be]but certainly is now -plus the ownership issue with djs ie "i discovered that" YEAH RIGHT -what aload of kack bet your bottom doller with the exception of a few that a tune has found a place before it becomes big etc-trends and fads still dominate a soul scene in the uk ?? how many collectors etc are sitting on the stuff for numerous years before a dj makes it popular NUFF SAID -right back online to find some interesting stuff !!lol. BAZ A

LAST 1 FROM ME WHEN I REALLY NEED THE BOOST ITS ALWAYS THIS ON MY KNACKED UP JAYBOY COPY I GOT AT THE CASINO-This was spun out bout 4 years ago at the Burnly nighter and i looked round sat next to Guy H he SAID "THIS RECORD IS INCREDIBLE"the instrumental really takes me places the strings are bloody mindblowing imho!! BAZ A

THERE YOU GO FOLKS to me this is mindblowing !!never fails -just hits the spot!! BAZ A THE DRUM ROLLS BLOW MY MIND EVERY TIME -- THE VOCALS INCREDIBLE CANT REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS COVERED UP AS ORIGINALLY WAS IT THE UNITED 4?? F--KING INCREDIBLE FOLKS LISTEN TO THE HARMONIES AND PIANO!!

listen to all sorts at home lots of sweet and deep in particular but the one record that gets me right back to it is this one -butchs x volcanos cover up-the intro and piano and vocals just blow me away this along with the Barons of soul will always personify northern soul to me !! BAZ A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oL_AeLmRpmU

some good points from Keith-i sell for fun to fund trips to the usa so can say "your taking the piss if i feel like it"lost counts how many times :ohmy:I have but also done some great deals on here -the climate is hard but also we are in total vinyl overload so with that should bring tremendous value ???? [in theory anyhow] BAZ A

NEVER HAD ANY PROBS RE PRICES I JUST SIMPLY SAY NO IF not happy -one thing for sure theirs always a good bit of activity on here for buying and selling and bargains to be had if you look hard enough-theres some items massively inflated and others worth picking up at reasonable prices imo,all goes with the turf ie record collecting and haggling well again why not ? The price quide has ofcourse thrown the selling side of things wide open and alot of the time sellers do quote the book thinking this or that is a bargain but just like when you are out and about the green always talks in the end!! BAZ A.

Do agree with Rich on that id strongly recommend most of the singles on stang if not all of them and all can be picked up reasonably cheap-check out the mark green singles on stang also - sweet soul at its very very best imo!!! BAZ A.

sounds brill thanks mate BAZ A Which one Baz? I take it you mean Sigma Sound? No unfortunately. I did pass it a couple of times - once with Val Shively in the 70's but I didn't have the balls to walk in in '76. Wish I had. I did manage to get some great studio photos and interviews with Vince Montana when we did the Salsoul Orchestra anthology a few years back and I speak with a few of the original guys every now and then - for instance, I just licensed a track from Bobby Eli who is alive and well. However, I have a sneaking suspicion that Moulton's sat on TONS of stuff from the era 'cos he collects it and then sits on it forever LOL I'm actually going to do a mini documentary with the great man in the next couple of weeks so I'm going to interview him in his apartment and get him to dig into all the stuff in his archives (of which there are 1000's of tapes) so that should be fun. Dealing with his bloody cats probably won't be as much fun however......... I'll let you know how I get on. If I start finding any Sweet and Deep you'll be the first to know.......... Ian D

WONDERFUL GESTURE THANKS Ian just out of interest did you ever get to the studio ?? Lemme know whatcha need Baz. I kept copies of all the Salsoul masters we made anyway and those that we didn't manage to get are held by either Tom Moulton (who I'm seeing next week) or my mate Jeremy Newall who has the entire Salsoul catalogue. Now lemme see........you'll probably be after that unreleased Loleatta Holloway, Eddie Holman and Love Committee stuff right? And yer right. Litigating over this stuff is a one way ticket to oblivion......... Ian D

EXACTLY - BAZ A. Yeah but that's for 'Wigan Casino Northern Soul' isn't it Baz? And it's less than a year old too. Nothing for 'Wigan Casino' by itself that I can see........ Ian D

HELLO DAVE FOLLOW THE LINK TO THE SITE POP IN WIGAN CASINO IN THEIR SEARCH ENGINE AND GET AN IDEA OF WHO OWNS THE TRADEMARK - BAZ A WTF Does that mean? [
