What puzzles me the most is that RC is a British publication about 'RECORD COLLECTING'....
Lynne's 'Stranger....' is her MOST collectable and most expensive 45!! And a Northern soul classic. Maybe the Aussies don't realise this, but a publication like RC definitely should!
I thought RC had a guy working for them who was into Northern/soul....??? (mind you, if they do, he's been gone AWOL for months!)
Northern Soul and its affiliates is surely one of, if not THE, most collectable and revered vinyl in the UK.....the records are what record collecting is all about, yet this publication seems to snub it! Don't get me wrong, when RC do a Northern /Soul piece they really do a great job (the Shrine article several years back and the Motown labels from donkey's years back, not forgetting the brilliant UK ska/reggae series they ran many moons ago). It's so obvious the publishing team are made up of Queen, Beatles, Elvis fans.
If anyone is reading this who knows somebody working for RC...."More Soul Please!"
