  1. Nice pick again Rick. Yes the flip is a stunning deep record. Will have a dig round later for a Cleggy classic.
  2. Spinning a few tonight - in and out of the garden, having a good drink up and making take away curry for ten people at work, which I will deliver on Monday. I've played this before but have just had it banging out here - just right for my mood tonight. A bit of Chicago soul, The Chimes - Beginning of My Life.
  3. Got Cleethorpes written all over it Rick.
  4. Don't generally post 60's stuff but I was really taken with this when I first started going to all niters in 1979 - it was a big, big record back then. Absolute stonker of a dance record with superb vocals, sax and horns. Lou Roberts and the Marks - You Fooled Me. Does it get played out today?
  5. I think it is LP only. Unlike some of the other great tracks on there which did escape onto 45's. One of my favourite girl groups.
  6. Always loads of records to buy and sell. In my opinion people looking to predict the market and then thinking of selling are perhaps buying for the wrong reasons. I dont expect to recoup anything back from my collection as I am buying because I like the record - irrespective of the price. Just a personal opinion.
  7. Nice Rick. New to me.
  8. Yep, so pretty Dave. Got a few of their tracks including this one.
  9. Pretty sure I've posted this before - but hey ho. My favourite Freddie Hughes track - although I dont know too much about his other stuff. Super vocals on a super super, soul record. I Just Found Out. Ave it.
  10. Yep. Got nice promo of that Gogger.
  11. Ay up Dave. Here you go my mate.
  12. Great track mate - very under rated Mr Miles. Check out Got To Find Miss Right - LP Only, absolute stonker!
  13. Bugger! I did this post last night but forgot to hit the submit reply button! Ah, well, pissed again. Innit. It's the start of the weekend, dust down the deck, and crank up the volume into overdrive. Move your ass! J. Jocko ‎– I'm Gettin' Over - ave it.....................
  14. Yep, well done Rob. You've been hard but fair taskmaster at times but have kept the sales forum relatively problem free. All the best mate. Pete
  15. Yes Dave. Where I grew up. Albert Gray owned a really nice set of gallopers, the big wheel and a dodgem track.
  16. Cracker that Bruv. Pete
  17. As a kid I worked on a set of gallopers for about five consequetive summers - weekends and school holidays. Became great friends with the Showmen family who owned them - the Grays. They really looked after us - doing little but important things like making packed lunches for school trips when my mum was in hospital (which was often). My dad was dead and we were really hard up. I wasn't used to such posh snap! Pete
  18. Cheers mate. I spent quite a lot of time there and on the Isle Of Wight where they build the fabulous boats. Had a few great times taking a B Class Atantic out and bombing round water between Portsmouth and the IOW. I was a fundraising manager for them - also went out of a few rescues on the East Coast in a Mersey Class - Skegness and a Trent Class at Spurn Point. Atlantic Mersey Class Trent Class Ahoy me shipmates!
  19. I could be mistaken but is that the RNLI national headquarters in the background. I've been there many times - I used to work for the RNLI in the early 90's. Peter
  20. Nice pick. Scroll down to to see my pick which is culled from a Capitol compilation featuring this track too. I'm sure I have posted before but the two go together. Najee, with Janice Dempsey on vocals. Its So Hard To Let Go.
  21. No problem mate. Didn't used to care for this Marie Knight offering but it's grown on me over the years. Certainly a big, big spin in its day.
  22. I concur Steve. Although it is definitely better than Muriel Day and numerous other records.
  23. Yes, Gil Blanding a super soul record isn't it. Always reminds me of Nev Wherry and Soul Sam. I paid a little more than £4 for mine! Pete
