Big song. More drama in Elkie's versions production.

Loving the second one - first ain't bad either.

The money only went toward buying a Charles Johnson back. I'm wondering that to some people if buying the boots that you grew up with is like buying the car that was yer first motor or tracking yer first scooter down.?!?!

For example, I just got £51.00 for a Marie Knight - TNWTTAG boot - frightening, the land of the bootleg these days.

First batch finishing now. Cheers

Fair do's

Jo Ann Garrett - Whole New Plan Joey Heatheron - When You Call Me Baby

Thought it'd be nice to see what we're left with.

Just to add a point, I'm not sure tastes change so much, they just develop - I didn't like Thai aubergines when I first tasted 'em but I love 'em now,

Loose conversational topic, I don't want an argument about what is and isn't 'soul' - just tracks that wouldn't fit the norm for a 'soul track' per se. The Anderson Brothers - I Can See Him Loving You

Having very little cash bitd meant that I couldn't buy all the records I really wanted, so I used to Hoover up anything with a big hole in it from record shops, junk shops etc - if it looked like it may have been a soul single and it was cheap, it went home with me. The amount of money I've took in the last two year or so off ov selling those 10/20/50p singles that weren't in vogue back then would surprise you. Valid point.

I'm feeling it Geordie. Know what you mean about feeling like you had to have 'em too,

30 more odss n sods added. Cheers More to follow

I'm not even going to enter into it Mike.

I've not thought that through, I was watching the Great British Menu on catch up with the wife and the thoughts came to me, so I've just stuck 'em down before I lost 'em - so they may be a tad dis-jointed.

....with a scene. As I have gone through my collection over the years, I used to struggle to sell things when I just had to. When my business went TU a lot of my big ticket items went and it hurt. But of late I've noticed it has not been that difficult to part with certain 7"s and that my purchases have been the records that reeeeaally mean something to me. Don't get me wrong, I still buy, always have but I've been wondering of late if I needed the scene that first turned me on to all this to keep me interested in collecting as many records as I used to, as I always wanted everything I'd danced to. I don't thin k that scene is there anymore - as a matter of fact I know it isn't. I think the scene now is turning me off a little as the central point for me appears to have changed - the central point being dancing and appreciating. I don't think that happens so much now and I know that as we get older certain elements of a scene will suffer, so I don't think the scene has twisted any, it's just coming to it's natural conclusion. I think I liked it more when it was a tad mysterious, when I was the whipping boy and had nothing to prove. I think I've grown up.

No sound here but mate - the Sony Boot Mix was polished up though.

Simple answer is 'no' really.

The Classic Boot Mix that Sony released wasn't the same as the orig. wl.

It didn't.

They are - the Tony Humphries mix was the one on the (numbered) dp's - there are a number of other Sony-forged mixes also, across vinyl promo's and cd singles - alongside the uncleared LH sample the boot had the original Yazoo keyboards sample also not cleared for the Sony release. It is a much rougher mix but is all the better for it. I had a beautiful Mass Order jacket from one of the Sony reps that some swine pinched @ Southport.
