tootsie rollers, keep the guitar solo and bin the rest of the record, utter tripe in my opinion, even the group name is crap, tootsie rollers f.f.s. regards thhe chandlers i used to be of the same opinion as everyone else regarding the slow part , but over the years my tastes have changed and now i love it, a brilliant piece of production, breaks the song up perfectly for me

considering who his former d.j'ing partner was, i really think you should change the title of this thread

thanks for the kind words steve, just to clarify...flanny was sending the money to me soulman1964@hotmail.co.uk , but sent it to soulman1964@hotmail.com in error

hey, you keep that premier league trophy nicely polished, dont want you to be handing it over to us next august all dirty

also done by johnny york on bev-mar

have we not got a unusual passtime forum

andy, i know its sunday and its pissing it down, but i really think you should find something more constructive to do, scrutinizing bid historys of pressings on ebay, its just not healthy mate

hi steve, it was greety who had the professionals, i had to settle for the consolation prize of tamala lewis for 30 quid, think the professionals was 40, used to love those porthcawl nights, in fact the night in question was the first time i d.j'd at porthcawl, would have been about 1984, a mass wild west brawl broke out half way through my spot

only a fool would argue with john and rob when it comes to things like this

hardly off topic, but anyway, bottom line is, bootlegging of currant releases did go on in the states in the 50's and 60's, getting records pressed back then was very cheap, its still relativley cheap nowdays, theres a pressing plant that advertises on here that will do you 200 45's for 500 quid

hmmmmm, thats a tough one, i think we should have a poll and put it to the vote, anyway shouldn't you be swinging on the end of a paint brush, its half nine

yes they would and did take the risk, as did raynoma gordy when she pressed up motown stuff

thats what i said dave

it wouldn't have been booted retrospectivly for the northern scene, it would have been booted at time of release, as were a lot of records in the u.s. a lot of beatles on capitol are boots, if you were a distributor / or owner of a couple of record shops why buy stock in when you can press them up yourself and keep all the profit, i think the general concensus of opinion regarding this ric tic release when last discussed on here was that it was a bootleg originating from the pitsburgh area

hmmmm, and they turned up in 1976 / 77 when coloured vinyl was all the rage

i remember back in the early 80's ian had loads of copies, he even took out an advert in new blackbeat magazine advertising them at £12 each, much to the annoyance of keb darge, who he'd sold a copy to a couple of weeks earlier for 50 quid, there was also a guy who had a shop in reading (i think his name was pete) who had quite a few copies he was punting them out at a tenner

thats correct, rob had one of the alternative versions cut onto a acetate, he got it off someone who was involved in goldmine / soul supply who had the masters for the forthcoming "groovesville masters" series of cd's, the version that rob played later came out on a goldmine 7's 45
