Or as i prefer to call it,given a new identity under house arrest.

I not having that Ernie!!!.The substances must have been good..Spaceark at Wigin - in Mr.M's?..they're just about ready for it now..!!!! Everytime i walked through it was "Compared to what" or something similar.

I'll come along Simon,if i've got nothing on.

I've heard that Barbara Mercer - "Call on me" on Capitol,is a different version than the Sidra one.I mean, who'd buy the Capitol version without checking.....

Careful Steve.(Mansfield was voted 5th "Worst Town" and 4th most influential Soul town.)

From Mansfield.Might have guessed.

Lol.I too deal with customer services.Empathy/sympathy with the "customers" (or in this case Richard's) predicament usually diffuses the situation if there's a disagreement,and prevents the situation from boiling over.

Richard is a friend of mine.You've insulted him by bringing this topic to "all about you",and your argumentative posts. You quoted "people chasing me down the street" - i bet they are!! And not to pat you on the back.I'm not as polite as Richard. Clear OFF !!!

You brought up the subject.I'm sure if the duty was reasonable on this item,Richard wouldn't have posted.Pete S is right.Records can be signed for,not insured though,but its peace of mind for both parties... if it arrives.

Yes,but Red or Black as just started with Ant and Dec.Worth the license fee alone.

What do you mean,remember the Teddy Boys?.Still alive and well in Mansfield,and harder than most.If it wasn't for them discovering Elvis and his "black" music,we'd have never have heard all this fine music.Hats off to Teddy Boys. Getting old?.Maybe my piss stained sta-pres give me away.

Had a copy Bob,great tune,but it does sound like its recorded at the "back of the room".Think mine was a white label Tuff - demo?

What terrible news.Hope he makes a full recovery . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVw-aoxFDIE

Too many venues that need to "fall on their sword",but are unaware of it.Know your place and understand when your time is up. Lou,as long as there's records in your box (and Woody's) there's nothing to stop you having playing sessions round at friends or at home.Bottle of wine each, and rip the scene to bits.We do it every fortnight.Does you good.You'll end up planning your next night out before you know it. Choose your venues wisely, and the people you mix with.Makes a hell of a difference if the music is a bit flaky in parts.Especially on the 2 hour drive home.

Time to "play my joker" ala Stuart Hall.....

Was told to perform an act once by a requestee.I think only Ron Jeremy has perfected it.

If you replace "northern soul scene" with "soul scene",i guess that could have been written in the 60's by some small labels Pete.

Rarely seen for sale?

Some records have misspelt titles making them more desirable.(withdrawn and re-pressed).Some picked up on from local to national releases.Short runs would have been a cost thing,funded by band members.When,after a couple of years they still had 100 or so on their hands,probably trashed them out of embarrassment.Or so they thought!! One story is of a singer who's brothers girlfriend smashed all but 3 known copies of his single. All 3 are in the States.
