  1. Thanks Steve, I'll go there does it cover the mispress pete
  2. Just read this thread all the way thro' [ yes, weeks off the pace I know, it's been snowing heavily here in ' sunny ' somereset all day, and its all going to get a bit like ' the shining ' here soon ] Anyway, fascinating , love it ! I had 2 questions. I've only got or had a very small number of these 7's , but have only seem the one demo [ sro 101 - leroy taylor ] . Were there demos on all the others, or any of them ? What was the story on the misspress. Have the facts ever come out? Even better the myths ! [ all supposedly scrapped / 1000's thrown in a skip / disgruntled employee ?? ] Anyone know ? Sorry if this has been done to death before - give me a reference and I'll look it up - I ain't going anywhere for some considerable time. cheers pete

  18. Have just restarted playing the Volumes again after getting a request for it sounded magical and went down a storm [ thanks Bunty ! ] pete
  19. Pete et al, Just to be clear, wasn't seeking your approval or judgement or anything, so if you enjoy splurging it all out, splurge on. I'm just telling you our approach at S.N.@ B. For the record ; and to try and enlighten the original posters question, of one particular view. That's what we've done for 12 years and that's what out punters appear to appreciate. Also, in the back of my mind, to be honest, was bringing Kenny Burrell and Rhona down here twice to play the wonderful original, so, yes, maybe, I'm a bit precious about ever playing anything else. But the thread was about 'what is original vinyl ', not what is a proper tribute to Frank. So other promoters views are relevant ? If you've got a policy, you stick to it and don't start bending it when you feel like it. Otherwise it's not a principle, it's just doing what you feel like doing in the circumstances . Or doing what whoever shouts loudest asks you to do? pete
  20. well I'll risk getting my head blown off at our Soul Nights @ Bridgwater on 13 October we had the issue of the sad passing of Frank Wilson to deal with ; just wouldn't be right to say nothing. the request was, natch, and from a couple of sources, to play DILY. And somebody offered a 1970's tmg demo as something we could play for Frank to remember his fantastic contribution to our lives. to me [as promoter of S.N.@ B.], and taking money off people who travel from near and far to come to an ' OVO ' night, it's a no-brainer. Can't be played. Released in [ 1972 ? ] whereas the original is from [ 1966 ? ]. Can't be OVO. The point of this posting is to air my view that occasionally people get mixed up with the boot v OVO debate [ surely dead simples ? ], whereas the more subtle issues are usually around re-release v OVO. Anyway, all the above is off course, I.M.H.O. And I don't mind if someone wants to give me a kicking if the dates above are wrong. I guessed at them; I'm cooking dinner and didn't go and check them. If anyone is interested, and still reading without nodding off, the tribute record to Frank was ' Stoned Love ', [ long winded spoken intro ], played as the ender, which is a bit of a S.N.@ .B guilty secret / fave. pete
  21. I'll try and look up the details, but from memory, I paid circa 250 uk £ for a Jap 12' of this from a fellow soul - sourcer about a year ago superb soul sound, gets a fantastic response wherever and whenever played pete lyster
  22. Here you go Marc, we started in 2002 and now have 10 plus years under our belt and are still going strong ! Saturday 13th October, hope you can make it. All the details at the bottom of this posting best pete lyster
  23. a lot of these and others have words that cut like a knife and I'm on record and boring about it that the best soulful tune / lyrics ever ( for me ) are the Inticers ' I got to find me a baby '.... ...but, also, and in addition, for me there's none so affecting as what you heard when you were 16 / 17 etc eg ' ' I guess I'll always love you ........I love you now so much more, than I ever did before ' as well as , This old heart of mine Just one last look [ tempts - with a lot of soul ] etc etc And, to go way way way back , does anyone else tremble a bit when they hear Smoke gets in your eyes [ platters ] ?
  24. My thanks too, getting current , up to date, accurate, useful and relevant information, is not to be take for granted. This is the Northern Soul scene remember ! [ irony alert - that was largely meant as a joke !. ] these postings you do are superbly useful many thanks pete lyster
  25. hi Andy, pm'd you
