Was offered a 'Second Chance' option only this morning, and couldn't turn it down. Second month in a row this has happened but this time the price was most definitely right.

Outstanding. Some fantastic footage of his concerts both sides of the pond and the family & friends insights were joy to hear.

Just stumbled across this bio whilst looking for some info on a Bobby Powell track released on Hep'me. An interesting read, which I don't think has been posted previously. https://blog.ponderosastomp.com/2010/05/hep-me-the-senator-jones-story/ Enjoy Gav

Here's a thought Ben that might help in your crusade to secure your want. Tell the world what your prepared to stump up and you just might excite someone enough to tempt em to let theirs go

Now that made me laugh out loud properly.

Who actually falls for these inflated prices? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Midnight-Keep-On-Walking-By-Dont-Bother-To-Knock-Hansa-Soul-Northern-Cros-/121604264792?ul_ref=http%3A%2F%2Frover.ebay.com%3A80%2Frover%2F0%2Fe11021.m43.l3160%2F7%3Feuid%3D57769859a4e04b6ca7141c1e2548210a%26loc%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fcgi.ebay.co.uk%252Fws%252FeBayISAPI.dll%253FViewItem%2526item%253D121604264792%26srcrot%3De11021.m43.l3160

Jesus H Christ. Nearly £50 for a tacky looking pressing and the seller holds out for more. Madness.

I pray this isn't gonna be one of your future Sunday morning random record plays Dave !
