    I don't think that "The Soul Scene" has any more or less "Neurodivergent" folks than any other special interest or hobby. It just provides a platform or outlet for those traits to be displayed. About 35 years ago, my wife bought me a scalextric set as a bit of a joke present. I bought a few more bits and bobs and, after a while, I visited a "slot car" racing club! They were all nice people, but talk about obsessive behavior... !!

    Hi Angus, Thanks for getting in touch. I've seen that one and the one on Discogs. Think it's a little too much based on the current market and info from a couple of people on this site re prices they've sold for in the last 6 months. So... I'll wait for the right copy at the right price. Always more records than money!!! All the best, KB

    Thanks to everyone who attended. Hope you enjoyed the music and this wonderful venue. See you in July for the next instalment.

    Hi, I'm looking for an original in nice condition please. Angela Davis - My Love Is So Strong. I've seen the 2 on Discogs which I think are way too expensive, taking into account recent sales that I'm aware of. Please send a p.m. with details of condition and the price you are looking for. Payment by Paypal. Thanks KB

    If you're planning out your Bank Holiday adventures, have a think about including us!! Playing your past, present and future favorites. As I had COVID for most of February, I've had plenty of time to sort through the record boxes and come up with a few unexpected gems. It'll be chance to have a play about before the adults start! See you there.

    Wow, didn't know Russ played the violin!!!

    I think that sounds reasonable. The vinyl on the non-Archer stamp copy I have is different/better/"smoother" than the uneven Archer copy I have. I'd still like a Demo or Archer stamped one but I'm happy this isn't one done especially to meet demand on the UK scene. I think the uneven Archer one WAS done for the NS scene I think it may be a similar situation with other records that were re-pressed at the time - 2 Bob Relf's, 4 (?) Tommy Neal's, 3 (?) Majestics etc. Just my thoughts - but I still want a Demo or Archer stamp one PLEASE(anybody???)

    I think it's fantastic and would love to buy one with the correct "ARCHER" stamp, Demo or Issue. As mentioned above, perhaps out of step with current tastes. I got this from eBay a number of years ago. The sellers owned a second hand shop in USA selling household bric-a-brac and wouldn't post to the UK. So, Bob A (boba on here R.I.P.) bought it for me and posted it over here. No stamp but all the same markings as the copy just sold.

    Just a reminder, you can message me to purchase tickets. They can either be posted out or reserved on the door. Please don't forget to include your address in the message if you want them posted. Cheers, KB

    For those of you who attended our first event at Bilston, here we go for Round 2. If you’re planning your nights out in March, give this a try. It will certainly freshen up your diary as a break from the usual treadmill of events. As they say “if you always do what you’ve done, you’ll always get what you’ve got”. In some cases that can be good but sometimes, just sometimes, it can feel like “Groundhog Day”!! This is a TOP QUALITY venue, genuinely outstanding. It’s clean and friendly with a cracking Built-In sound system. There’s loads of convenient parking in and around the venue. As you approach, you get that tingle as the muffled sounds start to come into focus. Through the doors, up the stairs and the night starts. The sounds you’ll hear will cover a wide range of styles and era’s. You will be certain to hear some much loved favorites, you'll be reminded of forgotten gems and no doubt add to that list as the DJ’s selected produce a little bit of MAGIC! Hope to see you there.

    Doris Troy is one of my favorite songs. I wasn't aware of the Dee Dee Sharp version so thanks @The Yank and @Simon T. Was the Dee Dee version ever issued on vinyl - either at the time or subsequently? Thanks

    Hi, Here's a thread about Dave's sad death in 2021.

    Once you've completed the training are you allowed to have letters after your name. This would let everybody know your status. Perhaps... "Trained With Accredited Tutor"
