Bo Diddley

Hi Rob, Is this it? I didn't know it but was intrigued so did a little looking. Side 1 is JB and side 2 is BB. Both sides are on the same youtube song below. Both very short I hope it is the one. All the best Kev Bod

Didn't JM auction some of these a little while back? Just done a search and found a thread with a couple of scans and mentions.

As I recall, a number of things seem to have been "speeded up" at Wigan. Including the attendees!!

I've never been too keen on the intro to Willie Dale - Let your love light shine. It just seems to go on for aaaggggeessss!!!!!!!!!

Joe Hicks - Don't It Make You Feel Funky Frank Beverly - If That's What You Wanted. Ted Taylor - Somebody's Always- Barbara Lynn - I'm A Good Woman Delrays Inc - Destination Unknown I love a distinctive or dramatic into. It doesn't hurt to revisit this type of thread as new members join and also tastes change over time

I'm sorry to see Brian leaving the show. Tony Blackburn is a good replacement as he was around at the time. Also very disappointing the show will be on at 6 am. It was a disgrace on the 11 am Radio 2 news that it was announced "after 27 years Brian has decided to step down for health reasons". From various interviews he's given, he's made it VERY CLEAR that he has been elbowed out and that he was disappointed by his treatment and keen to carry on. Shabby treatment and shabby news reporting. Best wishes to Brian and I look forward to any other broadcasts he does.

Hi, pm sent

Is the instrumental Gerry and Paul - The Cat Walk

Thanks for posting. Brilliant. Isn't it Billy Sha Rae that is announced and played and not Eddie P? Cheers

I was watching the Sam & Kitty on the same list. The soundfile sounded AWFUL but it still achieved a decent end price.

Hello, Thanks for the reply. I'm just waiting for a couple of folks to get back to me. I'll let you know on Monday. All the best KB

Hello again All, Just looking for the 3 now. Lester Tipton Sam & Kitty Duke Browner Kaddo Strings Thanks to those that have chipped in so far.

Hi Jim, I've OK for the Larry Clinton thanks. I'm sure that would fly out If you put it in sales or if anyone else reading the thread fancies it. Thanks again for adding to the thread KB

Hi Gray, Thanks for replying to the topic. I've just (earlier tonight) found one and paid for it. All the best KB

Hello, Just checked my demo which has a scratched in matrix similar to yours but mine has 1E on both sides. My Demo of Quitter Never Wins also has a scratched in matrix. Someone told me their copy of Seven Souls was a scratched in matrix. Looks OK to me

Thanks for the replies so far. Just a few to go. Thanks

Hello Steve, Thanks for the reply, much appreciated. I'll see if there are any further replies over the weekend and get in touch if I want to buy. All the best KB

I like Tim's auction system as there are no extensions to end time. Just bid what you are willing (not going to say happy!) to pay and away you go. All auction systems have the advantages and disadvantages. The key point is to have a poke around in the rules and get up-to speed with how it works. It's nice to know the end prices, as with Tim's system, you don't get chance to see.

Nice one Phil, Thanks for posting the results.

Hello All, I've decided to try to finish off the run of old Grapevine 45's. I'm looking for nice clean copies with their middle's intact. Either Issue or Demo. Please PM with what you have for sale and a set sale price. I'm not in a rush as it's taken over 35 years to get round to! Cheers Kev Bod Grapevine Label Records GRP 127 De Lites - Lover GRP 132 Sam & Kitty - I’ve Got Something Good GRP 136 Al Williams - I Am Nothing GRP 138 Lester Tipton - This Won’t Change GRP 141 Dena Barnes - If You Ever Walked... GRP 144 New Wanderers - This Man in Love GRP 145 Duke Browner - Crying Over You GRP 146 Kaddo Strings - Nothing but Love

I know nothing !! But... I remember in the 70's being told that some of the Black Issues were "re-issues" and some were "proper". This may have been assumed as there were always copies about. Anyhow, on that basis, I got a demo (which I think looks better anyway). I've just checked the JM site and he has one for sale with the comments.. Genuine authentic 1966 stamped matrix, thin vinyl first press - of this Golden Torch Northern Soul anthem - classic early 70s spin - repeat .this copy is the genuine original press! So, I wouldn't be surprised either way. KB

I came across this book today while looking for something else. "The Record Players" is a book that came out in 2010. It features interviews with various DJ's from different era's and styles. I hadn't come across this before and enjoyed reading the chapters on "Farmer" Carl Dene, Kev Roberts, Ian Levine and Ian Dewhirst. Kev and Ian being members on here. I thought I'd post a link in case anyone fancies having a look. Cheers Kev Bod https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=CCHy-FcMP1EC&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false

Best buy for me was a Towanda Barnes -" You Don't Mean It" Brown Issue. I was the only bidder for it on eBay. Not a cheap opening bid but, advertised under "Rock". I'd always wanted an Issue.

Or, as Mary said to Joseph, "My Baby Came From Out of Nowhere"

By today's standards it isn't very good. But imagine a time and place far far away where "My hearts Symphony", "Nine Times Out of Ten", "Wait a Minute" and "Joe 90" were played and danced to.......
