Speaking of Esther, If any one sees her cover of home is where the hatred 
is , I want it...


That reminds me, I was at the Sink's re-opening birthday last Sunday, and 
whilst having a flick through 7s I couldn't afford and would never see 
again, I noticed the man selling them had a portable record player. It was 
about 10 long by 4 wide, and was apparently made by technics until about 
1989. It looked something like a vinyl walkman... Anyone ever seen one?

 Yeah, he started off at the Blackpool Mecca where he had a reputation 
for

 unearthing records no one had heard of, 

 uh...didn't they all?...

Yeah, that's part of what it was about, but Levine was also known as being
the main man for it. His parents owned some successful businesses in
Blackpool, and he was one of the first Northern Soul DJ's to fly over to 
the
US with the intention of going to old warehouses and shops to buy rare 
soul.


He also became a pariah at one of the other famous clubs, the Wigan Casino,
due to him pushing newer records rather than just 'oldies'. Apparently
Esther Phillip's 'What A Difference A Day Makes' nearly tore the scene in
two.

 Wasn't Ian Levine a big time DJ back in the Northern Soul days? I
believe his
 second career was the invention of HI-NRG?

Yeah, he started off at the Blackpool Mecca where he had a reputation for
unearthing records no one had heard of, but then lost the plot getting
involved with Heaven in London and Take That.

Shame really
