My mum was born in India (honest) and always said that out there if you cleaned your plate, then it was understood that you were still hungry, so they filled it up again! Pity they don't do that at our local curry house - although I never do quite finish everything! There is just too much anyway!
-
Well, that was the one though!
The other, great unknown label - at least in my book - was Chess. Maybe it was THE great soul label. I say unknown because I think there's a lot of folk who just don't know how much stuff that they love came out on Chess and Cadet - Fontella, Etta, Jackie Ross, Billy Stewart..........................
My first ever Chess record - on the black label, which I still have was Pigmeat Markham's version of 'Here Comes the judge'! Possibly the first rap record ever and definitely loads better than the Motown version - Was it Shorty Long? Can't remember off-hand!

Smart move! Me, I'll be on me own with a pint of Stella!

'Little sod' springs to mind, probably becasue they were still saying it when I was 30! !jumping!

Time is tight was definitely one of my favourites - Booker T - Great guy, great band, although is Wedding Album wasn't quite the best thing he ever did. Worth a few quid now though. I sold my copy to selecta for about a quid!

Did you see the 'hit the road Stax' show over Christmas together with the history of Stax? I think it was all on BBC 4 - brilliant stuff!

Deer Hunter was awesome!
Pretty Woman and Notting Hill - It may just be Julia Roberts!
Oh, and quite new - The Jane Austen Book CLub.
I thought Quantum of Solace was a bit of a loss too - not as good as Casino Royale.
-
I read about this - It's true, from today it's illegal to take pictures of the police as a 'preparatory' act for terrorism, but as we all know 'terrorism' laws have been used to spy on people who have dogs out for a walk! So, my guess is anyone, anywhere with a camera is in deep doo dah!
-
Yes, but it did have Dianna Rigg in it....... !

Another great, if Lesser known label - DIRECTION
