I asked a question some years ago on this Steve and no names were mentioned (i think!) but there were intimations of who was responsible. There was that guy a year or so ago who got convicted? Of course there are legalities involved if we do name said individuals. Perhaps Ady C, Tony et al have or had an idea about illegal activities on some of their product being illegally issued which of course does fine companies such as Kent no good whatsoever.

Oh no! Another O.V.O debate coming! Legal legitimate reissues are absolutely fine. Yes some will play them out but I would have thought we'd know which venues etc does this. Some or quite a lot of folk just don't care. The music should always come first. I buy a handful of re-issues just to have at home - I can't afford Ernest Baker but am happy to stick the grapevine 45 on the decks at home. Hasn't destroyed the price of the EB 45 has it? But in my personal honest opinion I wouldn't want to hear the grapevine 45 played out. But some won't care. That's their choice. My gripe is the illegal bootlegs / carvers whatever being sold on ebay/venues etc etc. Purely a money making illegal activity but then it has been a part of the rare soul scene since its inception! And by 'revered' individuals no doubt over the years. Every other month there's a O.V.O / keeping the scene alive with youngsters debate. In the 21st century this will involve re-issue product like it or not - not all of us were around to buy future northern classics for a few quid at the Wigan record bar. Hard to stop the bootlegging so let's at the very least not ostracise people for buying legitimate re-issue product and enjoying the music.

Evening all! Just the one and a lovely piece of 70s group soul. Flip is a nice social-conscience cut. Condition NM / Unplayed. Chi-Lites - Livin In The Footsteps Of Another Man / We Need Order Brunswick £6 £1.50 UK Post / £3.50 Europe / £6 R.O.W Paypal as gift appreciated to soulful45s@gmail.com Happy new year folks Rich https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uy1vOJXVppQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF2m9YPHvKo

I can't remember now to be honest - Remember Buddy Aces' 'True Love Money Can't Buy' being spun when I first went and loved it from that moment on. Remember seeing a copy of george pepp there for sale and swooning. Pretty sure there's a few guys on here who dj'd there..

Come to think of it could be there I heard it too. Good nights those. Question to Boba.. Did Williams ever have copies?

E Williams. Love that 45. First heard it by Roger Banks back in early 90s? Seem to remember hearing it furst by RB at one of the Gt Yarmouth weekenders. Think there's a copy in Germany from what I recall from discussion on here also but I don't think there's too many about. One on popsike from a couple years ago went for about 2k? Could be more now??

LOVE that S.J.Q 45.. A real 'go to' artist for me. Great choices and styles Swifty. That's what it's all about! Rich

New one to me just through this morning - Slightly left of centre this one - Norman Feels 'Today' on Just Sunshine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPSORlKMpHk

What a group Peter.. and a superb classy soulful tune too. Their ABC years yielded so many great cuts. Super stuff!

What a great clutch of 45s Mal. Love that Loretta Kendrick track. Beautiful. Glad you got Cressa ok Rich

Thanks Kev - Your feedback is much appreciated! Always pick up the Cat / Glades etc family of labels when I see 'em. JP Robinson also covered 'What Can I Tell Her' - it was nagging at me also! I think there are more versions?? Rich

A double helping of southern state soul to hit the mat this week - Raw Soul Express / Timmy Thomas (Upgrade copy) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9oGzKQfXPA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Km3q3UuLTqk

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-o1BW2cTgk

One from a lady who doesn't get much attention - bit of late night listening. Who's who on production/writing credits. Richard Evans, Gene Barge, Marvin Yancy & Charles Jackson! Cheap as chips and so very soulful. Natalie Cole ' Just Can't Stay Away' Capitol

Absolutely spot on! I honestly can't agree more with what Kev is saying. There's 45s there which are obviously exciting you and not others - keep to your principles and evolve!

I was under the impression Connoisseur was legit Chalky? And no it isn't right to encourage the purchasing of bootlegs (which I never do and never have done on this forum) but if I'm wrong on the legality of said label then I withdraw my previous post!!

Of course - and what a fine collection it is. Was looking at it from a 45 viewpoint only.

https://www.discogs.com/Freddy-Jaye-Sam-Cox-Thinking-Of-You-Destination/release/2988370 There you go! Even one for sale too. Never seen a full listing to be honest - The Pat Lewis rings a bell though. Cheers, Rich
