Wow - I didn't know that one, how good is that.

Hey Pete I beat you, got mine for £4 - same label as yours Oh yes that was from the Notts Palais in 77

Have you ever thought that they may be using your knowledge to find out whats worthwhile. Few years back I went into a record store in Johns town, built up a pile of about thirty 45 including two blank acetates uncut and unwritten labels, a lot of mirwood stuff etc They all disappeared of the counter while I was just getting near the end I know the store keeper removed them, after my rant he lifted a record box up with northern soul written on it. In the front was Cleveland Robinson love is a trap at $600 and Showmen Our love will grow at $150 and many more I knew I had been used and I hope his life went into a downward spiel from that day

Darrell Banks - No contest Open the door to your heart has been in my top 10 since time began

Hey - Thanks

I Cant believe I ate the whole thing Cant remember who its by, probably because I f--k off home when ever its plaid and no I don't want to know

Hi Mark I would gladly pay my English Pounds to hear your set, I know Dirty Dave from Daventry and Bootleg Bob from Bolton will always be there but what can you do apart from stay at home. I think public floggings are not permitted anymore

His loves like a piece of wood, when hes through it aint no good Any Idea OK Its Willy Wade When Push Comes To Shove

so they call me a Romeo, out for what I can get think like a fool and tell me to go Mmmmmmm still thinking

Yea man how about this A lonely little doggy crying at the door

It means Put up and shut up If the DJ line up says Dirty Dave from Daventry or Bootleg Bob from Bolton Then don't go

Wow nothing gets past you guys I have paid full attention and concede on both accounts What about this easy one Like a chestnut roasting in an open flame

Was Butch first to play Arthur Willis or was that Andy Rix

Oh yes, sorry Ring my bell that sways and tells Kim Weston Thrill a moment Given you seen them Tempests Someday

I was recently told some lyrics to Mel Britts - shell come running back, they were Lord made man and eve made evil Next time it was played I payed attention and sure enough it was there several times Maybe you all knew this but I had never picked it up A couple of years ago I did a radio show to see if very well known records could be identified from a few lyrics ie Ring my bell that sways and tells or given you seen them give up thats what my freinds tell me to do (it took Dave Tidswell about 10 seconds for this one) So do you know any lyrics hidden away in our northern gems

I remember nicking this of the wall when I was 17 I also got one (somewhere) of an all Motown all dayer at the Notts Palais You don't see that many now days and flyers are diapering (blame the web) Any one got any interesting ones

I had a long chat with Sammy on the first night he came over, not at any point did he mention he had copies for sale. Interestingly he did go into great length telling me about how he written, funded, owned, sang, made, sorted studio time, owned the label etc, etc, etc. I asked if it cost you everything you had at the time why didn't you save money and only put out a demo or a issue instead of both He replied That demo man I'm not going up that street Then quickly went on to his employment under George Blackwell

No Rod at the time of the visit (about 10 Years ago) I had not heard of dance time Mick

A few years back I was enjoying a coffee with Gigi (The Charmains) wife of the late Herman Griffin / Lewis when out of the blue she mentioned that she originally sang I need you like a baby (Andrea Henry) and had it on a funny metal disc coved in vinyl, but her husband backed the second version by Andrea We search that house and garage but with no joy. Who knows one day she may find it and then it may take its place on a thread like this. Its that rare none of us have heard it (to the best of my knowledge)

I was lucky enough to have the chalet next door to Richie Pitts at Prestatyn weekender 3 years running. He is a true gentleman, he told me that they came over hear touring as the Velours and were persuaded by Peter Springfellow to change there name to the Fantastic, He had moved to Sheffield and was enjoying his royalties from the theme music he had written for the TV show Black Adder He appeared at the weekender the first time as a booked artist in his own right and after that he kept turning out to help with backing

Me mate gave me a CD with some unexpected instrumentals on Just played through it and these four are there + others Imperial Cs - Someone tell her Kenny Gamble - The jokes on you Douglas Banks - Ain't that just like a woman Rotations - Put a dime on D-9

Brilliant - Id like to hear the rest of this set
