Wow, some nice stuff there.

Wow, fascinating stuff, and as Chalky says, the Lenny and the Illustrators sounds brilliant. I had a quick look at the website and subscribed to their emails - had to tick a checkbox to prove I'm human

Sad to say this campaign is really important to me. My wife, Christine is featured if you go into the personal stories. The thrust is to make us all much more aware that the stereotypes of how people get lung cancer stop people from realising that there's only one certain factor - all you need to get lung cancer is to have lungs. https://tinyurl.com/66jr6rkf https://www.allyouneedislungs.org.uk If you're on social media it would be great if you could share the main (2nd) link and spread the word.

It'll be the Rance Allen for me, both sides equally strong.

All 4 programmes have probably been on before, but if you're at a loose end this evening you can watch: Hitsville, the Making of Motown (19.30 - 21.30) Mr Dynamite, the Rise of James Brown (21.30 - 11.45) Marvin Gaye, Behind the Legend (11.45 - 1.05) The Barry White Story, Let the Music Play (1.05 - 2.20)

Fair comment. I did think Michelle David & the True-Tones hit a decent pace with 'Good, Good, Good' a couple of years ago:

It's good. I always liked the original, though I only had it on the Inferno UK release.

Bobby's pretty much my favourite artist too Peter, and this 2000 release on Grand Central Records with him featured on 'Get a Life' by Rae&Christian was a brilliant combination of talents.

What a great article and the thread makes brilliant reading too. Like one or two others on here I went for the soul packs, and what an education they were. The range was immense, and it was always fascinating to see how different the pairing of the 2 sides on one record could be. As years went by I'd often find my taste changed to favour the side I'd thought wasn't so good when I first decided what to write on the sleeve. I never did have that buzz of trying to phone through for a specific record from the lists, but I do have very happy memories of getting the soul pack and trying to work out what I wanted to play first along with creating little piles of ones I thought I liked most, ones to check again, and, it hurts to think of this, ones I planned to get rid of. Very few in that last group thankfully, and if I'd known how my tastes would expand and change then I'd have kept every last one!

Thanks for the artist name - I'd not heard the track or of him either. Just checked it out on YouTube, nice one!

I've been playing mine and very happy with the quality of the whole package. Enjoy them when you get the chance Chalky! Sorry to hear that - I hope you get it sorted without too much hassle.

That's right, I was really surprised to see it today instead of next Friday - no complaints though!

Starting to land. My set arrived this morning. Look and sound great.

Any idea if it will be made available for non-subscription TV?

I'd seen the Stafford section before but interesting to see it in the context of the whole programme
