  1. The fire will have a devastating impact on wildlife and the country side in general. I hope that the fire fighters and everyone else who is helping are kept safe and their efforts are successful in bringing the fire under control. Pete
  2. Cheers Rick. I seem to remember him having a massive cross hanging round his neck. Yes, I understand he had a great collection. Pete
  3. Hi Rick Is JC the geezer with the long grey hair. I always think he looked a bit like Jesus! Is that where the JC comes fro,? Pete
  4. One of the many records which I had stolen some years ago.
  5. Penlee Lifeboat - an act of incredible bravery that ended in catastrophic tragedy. I worked for thew RNLI in the 90's - a mere fundraising manager. I did have the privilege of going out on a number of rescues on different all weather class boats. Not many people know that the weather conditions can be so bad that regular crew members get sea sick and succumb to hypothermia. Pete
  6. Gonna ask Mike for OTO forum. Original threads only.
  7. Bloody hell. My sun burn has somewhat diminished. Unlike this rerun, of reruns, of previous rerun threads. Margaret! Margaret!
  8. Its not "unbelievable" really though. It is probably the most recurrent discussion on the site - in its various guises. The sun stroke makes me abrasive
  9. Not wishing to promote bootlegs - but that had an awesome trackback listing at the time. I'm sure mine came fro somewhere starting with a T and ending in N! P
  10. Always save the best till last Mal. Ows yer feet bearing up mate? Pete
  11. I suspect that it was Richard working on the basis that this moody album was pretty much Richards play list at late Wigan. WFON FM All Night Long with Willie G & the Styles — No second chance (Deadbeats) Bobby Jason — All these things (William Powell) James Lewis — That’s the way (The Q) Professionals - That's why Court Davis — The lover who loves you not (Try to think what you're doing) Seven Souls - I still John & Weirdest — Memories Ty Karim - Lighten up Cheryl Berdell Doug Parkinson Jan Jones Charles Johnson Tyrone Barkley Otis Clay James Mack - Over the top (Roy Dawson)
  12. Disco!? Nah, them vocals and harmonies are silky soul stuff.
  13. They are about but they ain't cheap. One of my top ten early 80's dancers. It was massive at Clifton Hall - I don't really associate any one DJ with it - it was a big spin for many. Pete
  14. Yes, he was a really nice man. Lived not far from me until he passed away. I've said this many times on here before but........................ Edwin is buried in the same cemetery as my mum - Wilford Hill in Nottingham. Its a very peaceful place, up on a hill, and I often imagine Edwin singing to my mum - his voice gently resonating with the wind rustling through the trees. God bless both my Mum and Edwin. Peter
  15. Yes I understand that - Gordy could see a pot of cash better than most. My point was that if you talk about the best vocalists over the year I do not see Edwin's name come up very often. Jules Holland said that Edwin was the best live vocalist he'd ever worked with - and he knows a bit about music.
  16. Edwin is King. Far too underrated as one of the best vocalists ever. Peter
  17. Hi Steve I hope all is well mate. Great photographs as always. Looks like Bamby flushed out s magpie! Pete
  18. Well that's an orrible layout. I hope your garden designs are a little better!
  19. Great pictures Andy. Were there any fishing boats landing sea food? I love anything edible, fresh from the sea. You get around a fair bit, thanks for sharing your travels with us. Pete
  20. All nice records mate - I hope you get lucky. It’s interesting that the Bobby King 45 seems to be having a bit of a resurgence. Is it getting any plays? I bought a copy from the states a few years ago - a nice bargain. Thought to be album only for a bit. ATB mate. Pete
  21. Hi Chalky I hope you get some offers. If you do it would be good to see some scans of the “northern” back pages. They were great times - I was running a small do back then, nearly 40 years ago. The picture I posted of me recently was taken there. The Eagle Hotel in Mablethorpe. ATB mate. Pete
  22. Ha! I wasn't counting Japanese reissues. Peter
