Hi Ian, Just a word of thanks to you and your PR people for the review copy of the DVD set. I'll be reviewing the collection on the radio show in the next few weeks probarbly next week

if they declare it as a gift there are no charges whatsoever.

Edited by site.

yup, oops! just take people on trust when they tell me something

and the motorcity project was in .... 199? ok, sony acid then or whatever these days. I'm sorry Ian, I do like many of the songs in fact some are really good, but the awful backing tracks of a karaoke standard just lose it for me. again, just a personal opinion and i'm sure thousands buy em. probarbly why ive never played it out. whatever it was it was a hit in the UK - ok, only number 17 but i can remember when i was a club jock playing it out a lot, then there have been the recent remixes etc - cant take anything away from it's success there can we. Nicer responses Ian - Measured and no venom, keep it up and we'll all get along

Yes Pete, things have to be paid for - thats the business record companies are in. But do you know how royalties work? royalties are paid month in month out to writers, producers, composers and artists. According to Francis she recieves no artist roytalties from Footsteps. In fact to quote "I did not make one single cent (penny?) from that recording". Now someone gets paid everytime that track is played on BBC radio or TV because the BBC have to put in individual PRS/ PPL reports. That then sets the level at which the PRS / PPL pay royalties from other ILR radio stations. I have a friend who is a composer who writes and records music for commercials and TV trailers, themes. He gets thousands a month from the PRS/PPL/MCPS and his stuff is not played out all that much. Someone here is getting what should be going to the artist. As for "She's bloody lucky someone recorded her" well i guess Frank Wilson, James Bounty, Jay Traynor etc etc are 'bloody lucky' that we ever listened to them in the first place and should be kissing our feet eh? what a comment to make! Wether Frances or any other artist was 'bloody lucky' or not they did a job, performing a song and like any artist they deserve to be paid the royalty from the sales and subsequent broadcast or public performance of that song because that's the way the system works. she did record many song for Ian by the way - just check out one of the many motorcity CD's around. The fact that only one was a hit is of no consequence and probably down to the drum synth Can I ask Ian - who get's the artist share of the monthly royalties on the songs your produced with them? - an answer to this simple question will put all the doubters at rest. I don't particularly agree with the way copyright works - in creative, unlike any other job you do a piece of work and get paid for it for years and years afterwards. I'm actually a believer in do a job, get paid and that's it, you had your shot. but the system is the system and that's what we have to work with.

Sorry, she said it was number one in some country or other, didnt really take much notice of which one. a number 17 in the uk at a time when that means something, unlike today when 30,000 sales can make you a number one. I was only asking a question Ian, no need for such a scathing reply. Can you actually get any further up tour own arse? last time i checked questions arent libel. i'm sorry that my comments on 'drum synth pop music' upset you, can you tell me in all honesty that there are no drum synths on your tunes? sounds like nothing else to me. I am entitled to my own opinion as is everyone else. That's the business you are in. There is nothing wrong with producing drum synth pop music and i'm sure it can be very lucrative - why be so defensive of what's paying your wages?. You don't really think it's soul do you? On saying that some of my all time favorites were your tunes. Barbara pennington 'on a crowded street' almost always gives me goosebumps at high volume. It aint a soul record, but i do love that song. Nice bit of 80's old school. I don't know why you are so instantly defensive. You are in the core business of making mass market £2.99 CD's of cover versions, mainly of old northern / motownesque type tracks. There's nothing wrong with that - we all make a living somewhere. Where we disagree is that you believe that you can produce northern soul with a singer, a drum machine and a sequencer and make it specifically for that market. I know you're going to quote Sidney Barnes as you did earlier and that just proves the point that throw enough darts and some will get near the bullseye, go back 30 years and introduce that single and they would have called you Simon Soussan mk2. I think the nearest you got to the real northern sound was the four vandals, but correct me if i'm wrong - it was minus the drum synth and sequencer on that one? Your contribution to the Northern Soul scene is unquestioned Ian. The mecca, all those discoveries, it just goes without saying and i dont want to take anything away from you there, you have my respect automatically. But the venom with which you defend yourself is your own worst enemy. There's no need to defend what you do - it's your living - just dont try and say it is what it's not is all. Good luck with everything you do.

can i ask your input on frances nero's comments in an interview. - she'd like some money from 'Footsteps' - remember that number one you had that she didnt get a penny from (alegedly) many of those artists from the motor city label are rather sore with you mr Levine or so they say. I have no opinion as I'm not really into drum synth pop music. but im interested in your comments on paying those artists, or the lack of.

authentic lol - even the bag in the poster is wrong - mass printed bag that wouldnt hold more than one sweaty towel and vinyl sticker wigan badges. could at least have trawled ebay for some real ones those badges on those skirts they had on at Stoke werent vinyl were they (oops yes they were) Whatever, at least the cast list is mega well known arent they?

I wish they wouldnt do it at all. Theres enough tarts in 6" heels and piss artist lads out for a shag on the scene because of the TV ads from KFC and Felix - now out comes a film and again they will surface - just as they had just started to go back into the woodwork. Anyway, what happened to Jennifer Ellison? thought she was the lead?

ridiculously expensive is 1% i'll check the other post tho thanks

Has anyone dealt with adding the value of your record collection to your home contents insurance? Just wondered cos some of you will have collections worth more than your house! Mine is prob a measley £10k but not insured. Just interested in anyone's experience with this.

picture 2 - bottom right ... leo sayer perhaps?

there's a nice track there ... just slow the tempo 30% but keep the pitch and it's superb Oh the joy of Sony acid

just superb class!!

sorry fat WALLETS - i missed the wallets bit. thought you just wanted a promoter with fat. could help you out there lol
