Soul-slider

Ok, I know some members mentioned the extended edition of this show in the Martin Freeman thread,.. but just in case some members didn't read through the whole thread... the show is repeated on Friday as a 50 minute slot so another 20 mins of extra footage. Might be worth setting the video/DVD recorder.

No overseas release...UK only as you suggested.

You are 100% correct sir! I have one of those.

Wicked dancer..!!! Was it ever played out much?? I've never heard it out before (but then I never really travelled oop north too far!)...deserves some action as it's got everything a good Northern Soul dancer should have!

Must have been on Sky Pete. BBC2 programme doesn't say repeat in the listing.

I'd have thought a lot of the questions could be answered on Popsike??? So, is popsike the DEFINITIVE site on ebay sold records or is there another one?

Thanks for that Chalky, looks like it's gonna be a good un'. I knew Martin Freeman was a fan. Did you notice, even in a record shop in downtown Detroit they had the 'Northern Soul' fist on the wall!!

Martin Freeman Goes To Motown. Might be worth a look.

Yes, and I'm pretty sure that the L.P has a different take on it.

Hey Chris, do you have any P.P Arnold 'Everything Is Gonna Be Alright' Immediate re-pressings floating about for sale?

Who's doing the flip 'Do The Zombie'...?

Have you received it yet? That's a bargain price!

I've had the Platters twice...both with reversed labels. Also, I need the Phil Terrell...if it's only a fiver I'll have it off someone....

Look at his other items...photos....think he's a teenager. If you look back at his feedback there's a few Clara Hardy's on there...

I have a superb condition (EX +) UK London demo of Lou Johnson 'Unsatisfied' with a skip!! Anyone make me an offer for the record if they think they can fix it...

Had mine last week....stunning magazine, the best out there! Not read through it all yet (been on a management course at work)....but what I have...wow, the research is second to none!

And as a USA 45....flip of their 'I'm Not Built That Way' re-press / boot / re-issue...whatever

I've always been a bit perplexed as to how these insurance companies work it with rare records.??? When I went to my bank for one of those stupid meetings they call you in for, the banker ( ) asked if I had anything of value. He was particularly interested when I told him about my records. Alas, I could only insure them as the whole collection, not individually, then if I had a fire and all went up in smoke, I would have to prove what their value was.....yea right, and they're gonna believe it!! It's more likely that my 2 year old daughter will get hold of one and run it along the floor etc....for that they say, they will NOT pay out!

Yes, booted, white label black text. I have a boot somewhere, stick on label, styrene if I recall.

Well, as promised, the artist. Further investigation has revealed that the "Phil" on the label refers to the Phillipines, and not Philadelphia (in any case, I was imagining it sounded like something from Texas or somewhere like that). Also, I now doubt my original assumption that a Grandells from Italy must be some other band - I now think, from some bio information, that they're probably one and the same. Further, the flip (which is probably the a-side, and which seems the lesser song to me) is uploaded to youtube. And, finally, somehow when I searched Gemm this morning I didn't notice that there's a copy for sale there for 6 bucks (so my dreams of a big score evaporate, and the kids get nuttin' for Christmas this year!).

I quite like it. But I am a sucker for blue-eyed soul/garage outfits. Sounds late 60's possibly early 70's to these ears. Definitely could be played at a Northern venue.

Presume we are talkng about the same record by Lorretta Williams on Jotis?? I didn't even know there were any more versions??

Morris Chestnut?

Maybe it IS the Larks...I mean, they did the 'Penguin' now the 'Batman'...there's a theme there somewhere I'm sure....

It's on the 'Make It Happen' L.P ...later re-titled 'Tears Of A Clown' (cos that was a huge hit!)
