Suppose that was the great thing about record collecting back then, it was word of mouth, no technology like today, and i suppose learning by your mistakes was part of the game

When the IMAGINATIONS first got played i bought an ISSUE and then came across a DEMO so sold my issue and bought a DEMO little did i know.......

They did ian, the events tonight mate so great timing a full page spread in the yorkshire evening press, will post some up after ive been to chemist Heres a start AL WILLIAMS W/D for £30 sold for £30

Great idea for a thread ian but i went through serious depression some years ago and don`t want to go through it again thankyou

Got some pictures of him somwhere at the oval ball york in the car park with a FULL BEARD sat on his MGB will try and find them and post up GREAT GUY

As i said barry when i started trhis event some seven years ago it was held at THE JUNCTION in YORK so i looked for a brand name to combine the two, and york having a railway history SOULTRAIN just came as the obvious, if the others under the same name have been using this brand for 15yrs then its taken a long time for them to complain about our logo, but thankfully its resolved now no damage done infact in some ways the publicity has actually done us a favour

My thoughts exactly paul, we didn`t know who it was just a phone number on daves phone, this publicity may backfire on them for using the name themselves, see you saturday paul REGARDS HARRY

I must echo your quote, and well said mischief i have a good memory and remember asking such questions as a lad we all have to start somewhere

He was good at those putting the world to rights chats, old pete we had a few of them ourselves dave, yeh fell down that hill myself, was a right pain getting up as you say after a nighter

yeh we could do it that way ian, as long as we don`t have to stay in that Y.M.C.A in NEW YORK mate where you once stayed

Once again a bit hazy on this one as only went a couple of times, do remember a long walk up a hill after being dropped of by bus, any info anyone?

Yum yums black issue now theres a rare record, only ever seen ONE

Did tell the guy, if he`d have rang and chatted about resolving it rather than just sending threatening texts, there would have been none of this, also funny how he did ring after the yorkshire evening press had contacted him, still as you say did us a favour in the end plenty of free press promotion, so worked out quite well in the end, great advice from mr dewhirst as i would have never have thought about making it work in our favour as ive allready said CHEERS IAN

THE GREAT SOULTRAIN DEBATE NOW RESOLVED After a recent telephone conversation, with promotions manager at the uk`s office of www.soultrain.com, all has been resolved, apparently as i had guessed on of our advertisers has been advertising our event as SOULTRAIN, and not YORK SOULTRAIN this had been brought to there attention by one of there members, after a short conversation with paul alexander at soultrain, who has said he has no problem with us using the logo YORK SOULTRAIN, so the wheels keep turning on the YORK SOULTRAIN EVENTS and all is now resolved, thanks to everybody for there support, and hopefully we`ll see you saturday at the crescent wmc blossom st york

DOUBLE! pete thats way too cheap

The outcome of all this is at the moment the YORKSHIRE EVENING PRESS are round at daves taking photo`s, and are doing an interview with him to be published tomorrow, so really the outcome of this has been great for us at YORK SOULTRAIN, free publicity, all the contact numbers for SOULTRAIN.COM have been passed o to the press so that both sides can be quoted, many thanks to SOULTRAIN.COM for the free publicity for our event

Can you guys clear something up for me i was told TINA MASON is actually JUDY STREET or vice versa

ME and my new manager ian dewhirst who`s nickname is FRANK i think, so HARRY & FRANKIE goes to HOLLYWOOD

Yeh i think eventually that will be the course of action, the reason why i called it soultrain was because originally we held our nights at THE JUNCTION and with the railway link in york, just seemed an appriate name for our soul nights

Yeh and the lad who runs it down in york is called dave smith, i passed it over to him when i move up north so we could call it DAVID & THE GIANTS

Wouldn`t open on time, cost a fortune to get in, wouldn`t open in winter because of LEAVES on dancefloor, then again every event would be PACKED with NO SEATS what do you think to that CLARK GABLE!!!!

Sorry ian was on about my teeth and nose, ex rugby player n all that, just been in touch with the YORKSHIRE EVENING PRESS, who are contacting dave smith in york, and will be at our night to take photos tomorrow night so whey hey nice one ian

We need to talk management terms ian hows about 60/40, good idea though, need some new teeth n me nose straightened before filming though

You should say, WHERES MY INHERITENCE, and also tell him my name on my birth certificate is HARRY and i intend to SUE

Ah well cheers pat
