  1. Big yes here.One of the great things about this track is it's rarity on an original, hence you don't get to hear it out that often so when it does get played it really hits the mark for me anyway. Paul
  2. Stylistics I'm stone in love with you/Point of no return. Paul
  3. As usual, great afternoon. Great to see Martin Christie so energetic on his 70th . Paul
  4. Nice venue, great broad range of music. Paul
  5. As I recall was totally solid in the middle, would be a brave person to create a spindle hole but sure it could be done. Rod is on here, maybe he could confirm my memory isn't playing tricks? Paul
  6. He was pretty good at occasional mischief making our old friend Mr McAdden, but I do recall him doing a double take at The Volumes Pama photocopy, looked like he wished he had done it himself first! Did I recall Dave Withers or Rod Shard unearthed a Porgy & Monarchs MHCFY which had not had the import centre pressed out, looked pretty tasty? Paul
  7. Deffo blue eyed judging by the Lucky Guy side. Lucky Guy co written by L R Brown.......There's an Elbie to consider? Paul
  8. Hi All, Appeared in The Guardian 04.03.24 https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/mar/04/elvi-dan-penn-hits-aretha-otis-dolly-im-your-puppet-do-right-woman Paul
  9. New tunes have always been the lifeblood of the scene, tumbled over this baby recently on YT and in 50 years attending many events never recall hearing this one so thought I would share. The Wrecking Crew - My Chico. Hope I am not breaking any SS rules? Paul
  10. Very good. Seems like the riots certainly took a bit of steam out of the momentum at the time. Paul
  11. Broadways Sweet & Heavenly Melody/You Just Don't Know Jerry Williams If You Ask Me/Yvonne Shirley J Scott Goosepimples/Lonely Girl What's evident from the responses is you could have a tidy half price collection if you concentrated on double headers! Paul
  12. Definitely a minefield of choice, after all these years the most instant call to arms to these ears is The Twans - I can"t see him again. No prisoners at that opening. Paul
  13. John explained to me that he wrote the first verse and the chorus but then got writer's block with the song. When he met Dino and Nick 12 months later they were keen to see any finished material he had. John Rhys produced a few things which didn't grab their attention,so when they were still insistent for material he reluctantly offered the unfinished TWPYB. They saw the potential merit and set about finishing it off, we all benefited from that meeting. Paul
  14. RIP. That man lived a life, a true gent. A man who tried to make sure Time didn't pass him by. Paul
  15. Totally agree with the above post. Each DJ brings something different to the table. We have been blessed with the efforts of all concerned and we all have been able to live richer lives. Thanks to everyone who has kept me on that floor 50 years and still going, keep dropping that stylus and I'll keep giving it 'some rice'. Paul
  16. Interesting observation....seems to be a default assumption that this person is male, we keep our ears open, let's do the same with our minds. Paul
  17. Very industrious musical genius, as said above, his name littered the labels. Early outta the gate....Damon Fox Packin' Up All time classic....Detroit Spinners I'll be around. RIP, back with the family. Paul
  18. Blimey,is that Russ Winstanley at 3.15! Can't be, that fella appears to be smiling! Paul
  19. Came across this on the web. The DOC label has always been an anomaly, however this snippet gives a bit of background regarding the label.The Smiley Bros on DOC is described as an ensemble from the Wrecking Crew, another FW link. Sounds like a worthy cause. Paul Also see "The Smiley Brothers" courtesy of H.R.B., Inc. [Helen R. Blumberg] "a nonprofit Pennsylvania corporation organized to raise funds to provide free dental care for the handicapped,"
