sorry cant help with the record -- can anyone help with info of this group --ie line up anything else they may have done---been told this is a 70s tune apart from that i know nothing else---info would be appreciated----thanks jo

I've only got two 45's listed for The Overtones :-

"What would I do" backed with "The gleam in your eye" this was released in August 1970 on Hip City 014.

"There's a girl" on the Ajax label, is the other one.

Apart from this I have no other information on the group. :thumbsup:

All the best, Martin

I had one of these in the sales box a year or so ago for £150, every time the box was put out people would grab it, put it on the portable, then put it back in the box. Not the best of tunes. Eventually, after doing about 3 months in the box, Tim Brown took pity on me & gave me £60 for it. Shocked to hear someone give a $1000 for it :D

Hi Jo ,as you know I paid £400 for my copy about 12 months ago.I also believe one sold several months ago for $1800 .Tim Brown has it in his price guide at £400 (sorry Ady).

Brill falsetto lead...one that Phil Wainright said " the best tune of the year" :D ATB Steve

(sorry Ady).

Not half as much as i am steve :) Makes me wonder why i bother putting things in sales boxes sometimes, looks like it would make far better sense for me to give em all to Lew or John to sell, so i can sit at home in front of the telly with me feet up.

Anyways.....hope your keeping well steve, regards..ady

Hi Ady,well I am well :) It really is difficult selling tunes that ,in the main, collectors/dealers know about and chase down........I am always after semi-knowns.........at reasonable money :) Have a great night at the Dome ,please say hiya to my friend Neil :) ATB Steve
