Guest Nik Mak Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Need some info peeps. I played at the Railway club last night and Shay the other guest spun a tune that knocked my socks off. It was an instrumental cover of Lou Pride's 'I'm coming home in the morning' complete with jazzy piano and funky Hammond organ. Really need to know who it is ,what label it's on & the price! Any help would be much appreciated Shay's off to Panama for a couple of weeks so I can't ask him.

Rich B Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Just been on Manship's He's down to his last few and is banging them out at £20 Pete Interesting that JM has had multiple copies - didn't it originally come through John in the first place? Initially as an expensive cover up and then for a cople of quid a go? best, RB

Initially as an expensive cover up and then for a cople of quid a go? best, RB I don't remember it being covered up but I certainly bought it for about £1.25 about 1980/81, I always thought it was a bootleg to be honest as seems a strange combination. Maybe John can shed some light.

Maybe John can shed some light. Produced by Kenny Smith in Bill Glore's studios in Memphis in 1977. We purchased all the copies ever pressed which was if I remember right, about 1300. The first couple copies where sold at a higher price, once the load materialized we sold it at £1.25 which maybe gave collectors the impression it was a bootleg but it isn't. The guy on the hammond and piano was at the time was in Al Greens backing band, and I've long since forgotten his name. Glolite was Bill Glore's own label and is mostly local country music, in fact this maybe the only "soul" 45 on the label. Just checked stock on this and apparently we don't have any left, it has been selling almost on a daily basis recently. So Pete Smith is ya man he's currenty selling it for a tenner.. i'd guess that is a real good price, as it'll never ever be found in america, 99% of the press came to the UK all those years ago.

All the ones I've ever listed on here I've never sold - they do sell on ebay, sold one a couple of weeks back for 6 quid, bloomin hard record to sell

Sean Hampsey Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 there's a memphis seller on ebay mark mckie selling it as user memmem, he has some stock from somewhere, he has more than one. He has more than one of most things!
Guest Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I have a autographed one, Kenny Smith and Lou's for once i think the autographs have increased its value
Guest Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 He has more than one of most things! maybe i didn't get them all then, i thought i got all Kenny had at the time, maybe he held some back for local use. Anyhow I think 1300 was enough to be going on with at the time and on reflection it took me 32 years to sell out of them.. Great tune, and it's good to see it's being appreciated again.
Guest Gogs Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 love this record and had it for about 20 years (think it cost me £1)
Guest Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 All the ones I've ever listed on here I've never sold - they do sell on ebay, sold one a couple of weeks back for 6 quid, bloomin hard record to sell my first pricing of £6 - £10 was on the mark then Pete I feel a little smug now as it's not often I get it right

Thanks John got a copy for a couple of cheap trades so well happy. Thanks for the info. Personaly I think it's a stonking tune and should be played out more often. Atleast it gives me something to play instead of my original Lou Pride atb...
