  1. Bob, It looks like you're right. Check these couple of links Cheers Kev Bod https://www.dcsoulrec...ndex.php?id=282 https://www.tinybarge.../Tidewater.html
  2. WOW!! What a buzzzz that was hearing again. Best crimbo prezzie, thanks to the Wombourne Santa. It reminds you of why you got into the whole thing in the first place. Great venue, great times, mad people, unforgetable adventures that are scary to recall. Even if you felt like something the dog had sicked up, you always made the effort to wring the last bit out of the night and get on the floor for those last few tunes. Cheers Pete. All the best Kev Bod
  3. always liked Bella Delana. (Never worked out the "add youtube" thing !)
  4. Thanks for the replies. I'd be interested to know if anybody has been playing it recently to create enough interest to sell for that amount. Any other records on the label?
  5. Ther seller also put a FULL sound file of both sides. The other side has more than a passing resemblence to Tom Jones - It's not unusual !!
  6. I spotted this on eBay the other week and checked the sound file. I liked it and thought I'd give it a go if it was cheap. None on popsike to check against. The Counts - It takes a bunch a lovin - "Always IN Sounds" label It went for $854 !!! Any info on this one? I've probably been living under a stone and you lot are all on the look out for it!!. Cheers Kev Bod
  7. Also, in addition to the things on Pete's list, Earl Jackson - Soul Self Satisfaction - ABC George Clinton - Please don't run - ABC (UK was the only 45 issue as original LP only?) Creative Source - Don't be afraid (again, orig LP Only I think) The "Right-On" issues - Jelly Beans, The Crow, etc.. The MCA things - Rubin, Lee Roye, Jean Carter Adams Apples on Brunswick Kev Bod
  8. Pete, I was 2nd highest bidder on this. Oddly enough, we bid the EXACT same amount - $128.88. However, because your bid was 1 second earlier than mine, you won. I didn't go any higher as I did have concerns over the lack of feedback Lucky escape for me by 1 second. Hope you get the money back All the best Kev Bod
  9. Hi Tim, I think you're right. As I recall, Pep and Ian "The Barber" Tyrer played this at "The Laf" covered up as "The Anderson Brothers". Then seemed to pop up all over the place. In the late 70's/early 80's, Pep bought lot's of new releases to sell to us lot which went on to become well regarded. Including, Prince Phillip Mitchell - I'm So Happy, Tyrone Barclay - Man of Value. Most of us at the time bought loads of them - mostly good but a few crapper's!! Cheers Kev Bod.
  10. I was 19 in 1979, so not sure if that qualified as a "kid" back then!! It may have been 24 year olds moaning about 15 year olds. How things have changed - sort of
  11. I thought this rang a bell!! Nothing new I'm afraid. Just dug out my copy of a magazine given away at WIgan. It covers 1979. Just check number 4 in the list of "Worst Things About The Scene". Personaly I think it's good to see younger folks at venues. Cheers Kev Bod
  12. Not my copy. (Oooop's - not sure why image isn't showing)
  13. No USA 45 of this one (I think) . Not sure if it came out as a 45 elsewhere. Kev Bod
  14. Had this since the old days. Different label format. Only cost pennies, Kev Bod
  15. Here's my light blue copy. Not sure if the difference will show up in the scan. I'd never seen the DARK blue before the JM auction!! (then again, not something I would be looking for) Kev Bod.
  16. Is this the one? I bought this in the late 70's All the best Kev Bod
  17. Hi, Here's a scan of my Red stock copy (sorry, not looking to sell). I think that "Word" is the "B" side. Is this one of those records on issue only? Regards Kev Bod
  18. Hi Jayboy 91looks to be: - Not issued according to this list. (hope it's right!!) Regards Kev Bod https://www.globaldog...jay-boy-uk.html
  19. I've bought a couple of bits from sellers in USA on ebay. One posted on 17th May and arrived with me on 23rd May. The other, posted on 9th May and arrived today, 25th May. The seller of the record I received today charged me $8.76 but then kindly sent it REGISTERED which cost him over $17 (no addl cost to me). I had sent him a message on the 23rd and he replied saying he had sent it registered and that he found registered took longer to arrive. Ealier this year I had something take 2 months.
  20. I'm sure I've noticed 2 versions with ALTEEN in slightly different text style.
  21. Hi Pete, I didn't miss the Radio Station Bit I heard it in the Big Room around about 79/80. I've never heard it played anywhere since. I played it once when I did a warm-up spot at USoS. As I mentioned, Max said it had a few plays at the Cats. What CD was it on? Some Chicago type thingy. By the way, an issue is £150 on JM site.
  22. Hi Lorraine, A pleasure to hear from a true Legend. I notice from your profile that you rate the Temptations as your top soul sound - any track/era in particular ? Kev Bod.
