Sheldonsoul Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 watch this go for good money ,not to sure if its a boot or not(though i am persuming its an expensive boot ) https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320618853336&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Pete Eccles Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 (edited) It's the boot (which he as good as admits) though there is another on there BIN for less than people have bid on this one, madness, https://cgi.ebay.co.u...446130582958803 Edited November 27, 2010 by Pete60
snooky Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 I struggled to sell one like this in the summer for £20,what planet are these people on,,,,,,then again good profit
macca Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 if people are prepared to pay that sort of money for a boot, then more fool them. the seller obviously knows that if he starts the bidding at 125 quid. mad world...

Jumpinjoan Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 i know i might get slagged by some on here for saying this,but im not really a great lover of this record It is pants
Sheldonsoul Posted November 28, 2010 Author Posted November 28, 2010 It is pants must admit when it was thumping out of big speakers at venues in the 70s it was good, but i think like a lot of tunes they sound not so good when ur sitting at home playing em

Russ Vickers Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 'Kin total insanity.............WHY, WHY, WHY............ya might as well have a carver done or listen to it from CD or MP3.............totally beyond my comprehension. Russ
Pete S Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 It is pants I am shocked. It's the best Northern record ever made. In my opinion.

Mrtag Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 It is pants Oh! C'mon Joan Is It Really That Good ?

NEV Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 I must have played this a thousand times and I could play it another thousand times without getting bored of it, it's absolute perfection and anyone who disagrees with me must surely be the victim of a cruel medical experiment Its a proper "Northern soul " record Pete ......ticks all the right boxes ,if you like that sort of sound eh Admittedly i used to like this kinda sound way back ,but being introduced to different stuff ,has taken me away from the big room sound and it' lost it's appeal . It does'nt detract from the fact it is a proper "northern soul" record . Instantly recognised by the big drum roll and the mad rush for the dance floor eh Pete
Dave Moore Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 Admittedly i used to like this kinda sound way back ,but being introduced to different stuff ,has taken me away from the big room sound and it' lost it's appeal . :wub: Regards, Dave
Guest Mart B Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 Nice tune Always reminds me of The notts palais alldayers 1976-77 era.
Guest lotusland Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 is there a definitive way to distinguish the reish from the original?
Pete S Posted November 29, 2010 Posted November 29, 2010 is there a definitive way to distinguish the reish from the original? One way to tell, if you've got the record in your hand, is to look at the B side, the title fades slighty on the last couple of words. Also there are a few 'pits' in the run off. Plus an original vinyl demo is very, very rare, most are styrene.

Guest DeeJay Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 Regards, Dave I should have known you'd have to stick you tn pen'eth in

Simsy Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 Crikey! He's sold it an all Golly if that don't beat all! Could have got a Stardust copy for a tenner and stuck an ABC label on it. A bot is aboot is a boot.. Not a bad record, but outside my top 50...

Epic Posted November 30, 2010 Posted November 30, 2010 I am shocked. It's the best Northern record ever made. In my opinion. Agreed Pete, not quite the best (Maurice Williams is - FACT !!) but deffo in my Top 10 tunes - great memories of Mecca,Ritz & Wigan for this.
