tim smithers Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 100 pounds last one on ebay sat for ages on a buy it now. should think so to should be 30 to 40, but due to getting a hammering all over the country in the last couple of years people are asking stupid money , but thats are scene all over Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mace Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 should think so to should be 30 to 40, but due to getting a hammering all over the country in the last couple of years people are asking stupid money , but thats are scene all over Tim, its a £60 - £70 record all day long. Used to go for £30+ in the late 80s when it was first played on the mod scene. Woz, it's Monguito, not Mongo....might help your search for it.

Seen one on here over a year back for 40 if my memory serves me well, also the french issue is a little cheaper and has a better b side Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

There are a couple of cheaper European releases, but regardless of flipsides, Fania is the ONLY label to have it on IMO Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Mace Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 BUT ITS TIME HAS COME AND GONE I THINK Suppose it depends on whether you want it to play out at Northern events, or because you collect Latin Boogaloo. If its for the first reason, then it's time may well have come and gone.....if it's for the second reason, then it's timeless classic that will always sound the business Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

It was always a difficult 45 to get on Fania in the 80s because of the demand on the Mod scene. Fantastic frantic boogaloo, with Soulful vocals from Ronnie Marks. An outstanding Latin Soul 45 - better than Harvey Averne and Bobby Valentin ( IMO) I would not sell my copy for 100 quid - because I know how long it took me to actually get hold of it ! And how pleased I was when I eventually did get a copy ! And how it sounded just as fresh as the day I first heard it when I plonked the stylus on it ! A fantastic 45 IMO M Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

And if anyone wants to sell me a gold Fania copy for £40 I will happily pay the postage. I met Monguito in Miami a few years back and he was a lovely chap and was still in touch with Ronnie Marks and most of the rest of the band from that time. One of the great Fania mysteries of that time was what happened to the Ronnie Marks album which was announced in a press release at the time of his first single. absolutely no trace of it in the Fania vaults.

Tommy1 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Not sure where mine's from - Belgium? Dutch? I think it's Dutch. Got one also and this got a better B-side than Fania, "Work out" which is a killer too And yes it's Monguito which is Mongos son Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

pikeys dog Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Not sure where mine's from - Belgium? Dutch? The sleeve is French (I have another in the series), and since there's no word for "Weekend" in French, I'd guess that the record is as well.

Reg Scott Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Probably so Tim, but that doesn't mean it's only worth £40. There are a couple of cheaper European releases, but regardless of flipsides, Fania is the ONLY label to have it on IMO Totally agree. And if anyone has an extremely nice copy (EX/M-) of the Fania issue "Hey Sister / Work Out" I will take it for an agreed amount Sterling. Best, Greg.
