Talking to Nev yesterday, simple answer: yes! Think they are coming from Dwight in bulk...they were being picked up for about $20 a pop or something. Not sure if he's run out of them but by all accounts he had most of them stashed away (hence the water damage labels)

Nice turnover for someone there then, thanks for the info lads.

Saw Pat had one at £400, now seem to be going for nearly half that. Lovely 70's, although wonder if they are going to be available in James D. Hall quantities?

Don't think so Mulf ,these are the original copies from 70's that were SUNG BY,PRODUCED BY DWIGHT FRANKLIN ,pressed on his own FRANKLIN label.

Nearly all the ones found and sold on ebay in the past came from LITTLE ROCK /ARKANSA ,GEORGIA .

My guess is Dwight had em pressed up in a small quantity,distributed the one's that turned up in the past,probably met some chick who found the box in the backyard shed ,said they might be worth selling ,hence the recent turn up of copies.

Anyone who has one should keep hold of it cos as history shows ,they surface in quantity, price comes down ,then as always QUALITY records dry up .

GET IT WHILE YOU CAN ,WHILE THE PRICE IS RIGHT

P.S I believe the JAMES D HALL are still being pressed up cos the ink on mine was still wet
