  1. One more go for today and then it will have to be a rescan and try again in the week. Issue 28: Shades_of_Soul_issue_28_July_1999.pdf No, sorry for clogging up the thread with posts that don't work.
  2. Here's issue 28 again, fingers crossed this time it works: Shades of Soul issue 28 July 1999.pdf Best Sean No - just tried it and it still won't open, despite my having checked the original file I'm uploading and that opens with no problem. Very sorry, will give it a bit more thought and try again maybe tomorrow.
  3. Still not working, apologies. I'll try and sort and re-upload.
  4. Sorry for this, I'll try uploading it on its own this time: Shades of Soul issue 28 July 1999.pdf
  5. And going back to the sequence, here are issues 27 and 28: Shades of Soul issue 27 March 1998.pdf Shades of Soul issue 28 July 1999.pdf Best Sean
  6. This should be issue 8: Best Sean Shades of Soul No. 8 Aug 1986.pdf
  7. Many thanks Bob, my copy at home opens fine so maybe there was a glitch when I uploaded it, although all seemed ok at the time. As long as people have got access to versions that will open then that's what the thread's about. Hopefully the other issues will work ok, best Sean
  8. Thanks for all this Bob and to Mike for dealing with upload issues. As noted above, here is issue 25, along with 26. I'll get 27 - 30 uploaded at the weekend all being well. I think Chalky may then tackle the final issues. Best Sean Shades of Soul issue 25 Oct 1995.pdf Shades_of_Soul_issue_26_Oct_1996.pdf
  9. This may have been on TV before, but just in case you want to watch it this evening (Friday 12th June 15), it's on BBC4 at 9pm, then followed by 'Classic Soul at the BBC' at 11pm.
  10. Many thanks Bob. I haven't had time to re-read all of these, but planning to get them on the iPad and Summer holiday reading all sorted!
  11. Thanks for the article Chalky and really helpful having all of those sound clips to hand too!
  12. Just read my way through the thread and thought I'd have a look at the article. Jeez - after clicking away half a dozen unwanted ads I just gave up!
  13. Like that. I'm posting it to Ben Rowe, good cartoonist and younger relative of mine. Might inspire some vinyl related illustrations from him too.
  14. Thanks yet again Bob, so much to read with all of these and the ones to come, best Sean
  15. Good man Bob, thanks for taking this on, Sean
  16. Hi Bob, should be fine yes, best Sean
  17. Not sure - Bob? I think I've got them all if not.
  18. This will be it for me on uploading Shades of Soul (issues 8, 9 and 10), as Bob has kindly offered to upload the rest which he has already scanned. Hope everyone finds these of interest - plenty of interesting record reviews, venue look-backs, label / discographies, sales lists etc. Sean Shades of Soul issue 10 April 1987.pdf Shades of Soul No. 8 Aug 1986.pdf Shades of Soul No. 9 Dec 1986.pdf
  19. Pete I think you should be incredibly proud, as with all of the others who took the initiative to produce these magazines. I never knew much in the first place, and despite the many years and magazines, books and records I've bought in the time, can't say I'm any the wiser now. You may think you've forgotten a lot, but I'll bet that you still remember/konw way more than most of us could ever hope to! Hope you give Bob permission to publish more once you've checked them over.....
  20. Great stuff Bob, thanks again.
  21. Looks great Bob - thanks for this! I had collected Blackbeat and Shades of Soul and moved onto Voices from the Shadows, and hadn't really explored all of the others. Look forward to reading this. Sean
  22. Soul Bowl was definitely one of the top quality soul packs that I bought. Black Knight was another, and I got several others before Soul Bowl, including one that was pretty much all boots. In those early days (mid/late 70's I suppose) I preferred that as I was trying to get hold of records I really liked but didn't really know what was what (not sure I'm any the wiser now). I wrote about them in Shades of Soul back in the '80s and I've posted copies of issues from 1 to 7 so far on a few threads in 'All About the Soul'. The relevant articles looking at what was in the specific pack at the time are in issues 3 and 5.
  23. Thought I'd round off the Bank Holiday weekend with a further 3 issues, especially now that Mike's been good enough to raise the upload limit for files so that I can use the scans I'd already done rather than the lower quality ones (and thanks to Chalky for the encouragement and to Derek for permission): Shades of Soul issue 5 August 1985.pdf
  24. Fantastic Mike thanks - just scanned issue 10 on normal setting and at 40 pages it's 28.3 mb, so here's issue 4 on the higher quality: Shades of Soul issue 4 April 1985.pdf
