The very best to you my old mucker, will be in to see you regular away so get some decent coffee and biscuits in Kev

Ask Gary Russell about the last one

Another example of the mans utter brilliance Kev

Real glad someone thought to do this, same as Tomo and Dave, I love the guy, defo "The hardest working man in show business" thanks Tomo for putting me onto this and many more, could go on about his lack of exposure on the British rare soul scene but it will turn into a rant, I think you know the problem being in that word RARE, enough said, lets enjoy the man Kev

It ain't just us over here paying the big bucks, he lists quite a lot of Sweet Soul, the market for this is massive over there, especially in California, prices are sky high now, especially now the Brits seem to have cottoned on to this genre and are throwing their hats into the auctioning ring. Example being Liquid Fire-Loving you, very rare and brilliant, will go for a lot and will be very surprised if it leaves the USA. Kev

Wonder what the reaction would have been if they had done "Average guy" or "Please take me back" my first reaction was that Simon Cowell and his muppets are not qualified to run the rule over The Masqueraders, however, after listening to Tats on the subject, he rightly reflected that Simon Cowell could be the ticket for these guys to make some real cash, then so be it I say, apparently, group member and mainstay, Sam Hutchinson works a nightshift job earning minimum wage, I remember when they did Prestatyn a few years ago, I was fortunate enough to speak with them, I asked where the great Lee Jones was, "driving a truck" came the reply which gutted me totally and ruined my weekend, so, for all of their countless soulful masterpieces (no exaggeration)that we so rightly love, they haven't paid the bills. I don't care now if they get up there and sing nursery rhymes, just as long as they are paid handsomely and get some well earned recognition, lets be honest, if they did break out with those incredible words "If I was a rich man" Cowell and his sugar coated arse lickers just wouldn't get it. Kev

Thanks as always for putting playlists up Paul, we had an absolute blast, fantastic variety of all things soulful, big thanks to Dave for playing The Mist-The girl in the window for me after I pestered him all week also for playing (IMHO) the record of the day, Lorenzo Carpenter-My black sister, first time for these ears, absolutely awesome. All the lads were brilliant again. Kev

Positive Sounds-I almost blew my mind-Shiptown Great stuff Steve Kev

Hi Richard Most US collectors buy Group Soul, Sweet Soul etc, there are some Northern collectors but they are in the minority, you are right, some of the Sweet Soul, Group Harmony collections over there are fantastic, the market for that stuff is quite expensive but very vibrant Kev

Will 2nd that Nevilo, was almost an honour to get your arse kicked by him when you stepped out of line Hope you still gonna contribute on here Rod Kev

My kinda venue, totally refreshing unpredictable pl;aylists with no compromise on soul quality, need to get my ass down there, well done Scotters, Gouch and co Kev

Awesome stuff Chris

Will be very difficult picking that kind of stuff (the best) in that area Dave, those guys over there have got it pretty much sewn up, they are digging all of the time, I speak to quite a few of the guys over there on IG, will ask for you mate, hope you are well Kev

Great picture, looks like a pint of Windermere Pale from Hawkshead Brewery, the best !!!

Way to go Steve, some great stuff there Kev

As one would expect from Mr Etheridge, awesome stuff Kev

Nice one Bri, essential, both sides class Kev

Still looking for this, if anyone can help please PM Kev

Thanks Steve, yeah, took me ages, especially as I type like a typical bloke, one finger always a pleasure when we see you and great to see Brian and Cathy, hope they enjoyed it, will definitely be keeping it rolling Steve, no question, btw, you're not on your own, loads I couldn't remember titles of, just knew they were good, a few coming back to me now as Anthony gave me a CD and I can remember stuff now as I play it. No need to thank me mate, thank you Kev
