[bongolia]

grrr, you bastard etc etc.

anyway, the Tom Clay is good. the title track was a fairly big Motown hit in the US i think - he was a radio deejay by the way. didn't realise there was a whole LP of that stuff...

[wooly]

a disasterous day - made worse by that little lot!!! bastard!

[mundayschild]

That Ramsey Lewis is nice, but mines a single lp??? what that about then?, don't fancy doin' me a copy of that Bird 'n' Brass do yer mate, i lost one of those in a fire!, pretty please? 'an what's that Georgie Fame like?, i'm always partial to a bit of Georgie.

[llmod1]

Sorry, when I said double, Imeant that I have a spare

[mundayschild]

Ah,that'll be it then!, i trust you had a rather excellent holiday,
not helped by the fact you now have to return to work!....arrrrgggghh!.

Illmod -How much did you have to pay for the Silhouettes lp?I've just got the reissue and it's fantastic.Lovely vocals,proto d&b on 'Question Why?' and as my mate commented , a drummer who sounds like Jaki Liebezeit on a few tracks.Not forgetting the fuzz vibes a la Stark Reality.One of my recent favourites fo' sho'.

[llmod1]

Can't quite remember exactly what I paid for the Silhouettes lp as I got it around 8 weeks ago before I went on my hols. Think it was around $60 which I was well pleased with as I had been trying to get an original for yonks.

[Mumbles]

How much?!! I thought it was a 'holy grail' item.Well done.

Shit comes around though don't it !? Like that Ananda Shankar & stuff, they're sought after bits but when you're blessed on that particular day they land in yer lap from faraway shores
