Can't you say its "The 4 vandals"?

The question of "I'm interested to know if people on here would consider buying rare soul and funk 45's as an investment? Do you think price guides like Manships Price Guide, Tim Browns Guide, Funky Lexicon etc. will help maintain prices for years to come?" Collecting any thing as an investment is a risk, just about every thing in life is a risk. An example would be Frank Wilson's "Do I love you indeed I do", the price would surely plummet if a tea chest full of em was discovered? Highly unlikely but demand and availability play the part. The next million dollar rule of thumb is that some thing is worth as much as some one else is willing to pay. No price guide can ever maintain a price; it can only be used as a reference just as a car "book" price is used as and when but has little to no bearing on the price when selling your car or buying a car, reference only. Bearsy's comment "When ever i buy a record i write off the money, i dont look at them as an investment i buy them because i want them, if they are still worth something when i decide to either sell or trade then i try to get the fairest price for them i can." Is spot on!!! If ya wanna invest then there are better places to put your hard earned for an investment. Music is as fragile as a heart beat and the flutter of a butterflies wing. I think you need to talk to your bank manager, unless the fooker is wearing 40" bags and a Fred Perry!! The last place to ask about investing money is a fookin internet forum LOL where the likes of me get a chance to lard it up!! Lol.

Malc, loads of stuff on them via GOOGLE https://www.answers.com/topic/linda-carr

I hope this doesn't throw a grenade into the "Ian Levine" camp, but this is what he was missing on his productions............................ Soul with a funky feel, I think both this version of Wade in the water and Move on Up has teeth! Ian should have used some thing like this with a bit of street grit instead of the vacuous clinically clean soulless antiseptic pish he used. Great sound, bloody well done!

I think that you should have pressed it and slipped it to a few DJ's, I'm sure it would get plays and become part of the scene!!! I love it!

Fookin brilliant, I wonder how long it will be before people start lying about being there. LOL "Can't get over these memories" Wigan Casino should have at least a plaque, something small and unobtrusive but there to mark the spot where some thing very special happened to the spirit of British youth culture. A caf? I don't think a Panini or a Latte will be a lasting tribute to The Casino!! P.S Brian J can ya phone me please mobile 07877333236 home 0114 2838923 or e-mail afsc50@hotmail.com

Its being played to death on "Northernsoul radio", but I keep missing the title and artist?....................................... I'm going to wake tomorrow morning with a smile on my face If I can stake my claim on the love I see in your eyes tonight Life is short life is sweet life is so incomplete without your love girl There ya go you could be my Juliet we'll give em a story you won't forget A legend in our own time A story for you and me................

Didn't Aunty jack do a version of I'll be around? I'm sure he did coz if he didn't he'd come round and rip our bloody arms off! "I grew up in Oz"

Ady, sorry big fella.

https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Eyes_Of_Blu...art_Trouble.ram this is The parliments me thinks??

Oh and Gilly n Elaine it was brilliant seeing you both at the weekend XXX

I think there are two versions of this most excellent track that is making me swannicles revolve at the moment. I think it may be by The Parliaments???? It has lyrics "Sitting here with a broken heart wishing you'd come home" "I've chewed my nails of one by one and I've only four to go.........." I think The Parliaments is the slower of the two versions? Can any one send my both versions on file please XXX

Tribute to Betty

Any one ever got any "hassle" for being a "Soulie"? I did once or twice when I was in the Army with some dickhead trying to tell me that I should not be into a scene at my age and position. I remember hearing of the fights between Punks n Soulies but I never witnessed any?

Talk Sport Pete, well with the cricket "Soul Bongo" must be the tune then. P.S. Pete your little one is beautiful

"And let the red hot flames drive the red hot tears from my eyes" Kin brilliant! Ruth Brown - I Burned Your Letter, just love this track! Very rock n roll but who gives a fook! I always get confused at "Crossover" and the definition, my definition is music of one genre crossing over to another? Who knows? Who cares? I'm sure the Soul Police are going to storm my house any moment, especially if they could hear some of the stuff I listen to. Ruth Brown - I Burned Your Letter, ever get any plays any where? Rock n Roll, well surly Trinder n the Phonetics is as well? In fact there are a host of Rock n Roll tracks that have bled into the Soul scene...... I can't compare you to a jewel and if some body tried they be a fool.........
