  1. No worries mate. Loads of great output from the the Memphis based Hi stable. Willie Mitchell et all. There's a superb box set with an awesome track listing - more like a book. Well worth getting a copy - Ian Dewhurst had a few sealed copies for sale but getting hard to pick up at a decent price generally. Pete
  2. I'm not sure that anyone has been mean or personal? Just some honest views on what people thought. Im sure everyone is in awe of any performance given the age of some of these artists. Often it is as much about seeing them in person as the actual performance.
  3. One on discogs which I suspect you have seen. Don't know what it's worth so no idea whether that's a fair price. Pete
  4. Interesting Mike. Far better than lots of other poppy stuff and a good dancer though.
  5. Hi Dave yes the couple of instrumental breaks are it's weakpoints. Other than that it beats along quite nicely and wouldn't be one to go in the "white pop shit" dustbin. Pete
  6. Anyone mentioned this yet? Worthy of a place on any cd/podcast. Great dance track.
  7. I was a late comer to Van Morrison - he's great. I have mentioned his soulfulness on a few threads previously. He's recorded a few bits with Bobby M. pete
  8. Betsy with her new toy - not totally sure about it just yet! IMG_0331.MP4IMG_0331.MP4 oops- can't get that to work. Will try later.
  9. Cheers mate. Now you've posted that I do recall seeing it before. I used to think they were some posh English band - probably the name James!
  10. Now that is a top ten contender for worst record ever played. Utter shite, horrible.
  11. Here's Betsy, my brothers new rescue dog. She's been very badly treated but you would never know - she has a beautiful temperament and has soon settled in.
  12. I think you'll find that back in the day the local chemist shop had more to do with dance floor reaction than soul ever did. Not to denounce the many, many great soul records that were played.
  13. There are northern soul apologists.
  14. I'll vouch for it being utter shite.
  15. Wow! I'd have never had guessed that. Great record yes - and all about the struggle.
  16. All of your pictures are great Steve. However, the Puffin collection are absolutely stunning - worthy of any wildlife magazine/website. Well done mate. Pete
  17. Yep, absolute massive record from the early 80's and probably my top pick at the time. . The reason I sold up is that I had a fair few records like this stolen. Never thought I would contemplate buying them back due to the price and availability - but then you get sucked into the zone! I bid on one the other night. Pete
  18. How beautiful is this? The Jones Girls - previously unreleased but on a PIR anniversary 45. Baby Dont Go - so, so pretty. Turn up the bass and the volume.
  19. Wow! Nice back garden. Have you any other pictures to give us some context please mate? thanks Pete
  20. The much maligned pigeon. You've captured its beauty there Steve. Great photo Sir. Pete
  21. I have just reclaimed part of the drive to extend the garden a bit. Here's the newish fence and gate. Still need to sort out the extra area - probably going to install some raised beds to grow some herbs and vegetables. I have spurts of motivation amongst my low mood and depression so things take a little while with me. I'm very fortunate to have my brother who kicks my arse into gear when necessary.
  22. A very humble and rare offering from me - me garden, taken on my i phone. The Christmas tree on the right is the first tree me and my ex partner had together. Replanted it in the garden - its been there for 20 years now. You can also see a nice Rosemary shrub and my Johnson Blue. I am very lucky to have no neighbours on one side just fields, stables and the canal.
