SHEFFSOUL Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 KELL OSBOURNE - LAW AGAINST A HEARTBREAKER. IS THIS UNRELEASED, FROM THE VAULTS ETC..? OR A US 60'S RELEASE? IF SO WHAT LABEL , HOW MUCH, THANKS...
Tony Smith Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Released on U.S. Highland, rare as rocking horse sh*t £3/4000
Ted Massey Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) 3 known copies Butch has one, i bought Andy Spencers who bought it from Steve Smith, I sold it to Tim Brown in 2001. There has been one on ebay which went for considerably less than i sold it for, the Ebay copy went for £3600 or there abouts Even thou the Loma copy has the same backing (different song) there is some thing missing from it IMO Edited April 9, 2011 by Ted Massey
Chalky Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Just buy Kell's Loma release You can't Outsmart A Woman, not quite as good but has the same backing. Still think 3.5k for such a good and rare record is cheap. when compared to some sales of records no where near as rare.
SHEFFSOUL Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 yes..agree with all replies..will try to get the loma release..the highland version does have that extra something..can anyone post the full highland version on ref o soul..??
Chalky Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 yes..agree with all replies..will try to get the loma release..the highland version does have that extra something..can anyone post the full highland version on ref o soul..?? look round for the Loma release, most charging over £100 which is too much IMO, £75 tops. Though the Highland one was in refosoul? There is no "U" in Osborne btw, most get it wrong.
Chalky Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 kell osborne - a law against a heartbreaker - highland

Top 10 record for me - blinding
Chalky Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 When I eventually tracked Kell Osborne down and spoke to him, he'd not heard this record for some 30 odd years (probably since he laid the track down in the studio). Upon hearing it all he could say was "WOW"!! Even Kell doesn't have a cop. In my top ten all time as well Byrney
SHEFFSOUL Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 ...no wonder i'd never heard it if its so rare!..when was it first played? has it been released/booted?..
Soulcarp Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Kitch has one too. Top 10 record for me - blinding kitch got the one off e-bay the other year
Chalky Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 ...no wonder i'd never heard it if its so rare!..when was it first played? has it been released/booted?.. only demo's exist. first played Stafford era covered up as Jimmy Gresham - Heartbreakers Law.
Ted Massey Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Andy Spencer boughtvit of Steve Smith at Stafford it was probably Guys copy

Dave Raistrick Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Dave Raistrick to Guy H if I remember rightly That is right Simon, l went to the record label distributors in North Hollywood looking for Luckey Davis - It's not where you start - Highland - l had just heard it on local radio. when l arrived they gave me a sample box of mainly Highland releases to check out and in there were 2 x copies of 'Law against a Heartbreaker' it was unknown at the time, Guy had one and l think Jim Wensiora had the other. In the same box was John and the Weirdest on Tie - at the time 'Searling' still had it covered up as Spyder Turner & The Webs !!! l remember also Soul Patrol, Larry Atkins and other Highland items that l bagged. Regards Dave

Guest audiavant Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 needs must Joan needed a lot of money and just decided, have regretted it but the end a profit of £5,380 was too much to turn down Hope HMRC are not watching this,unless of course you included it in your tax returns for the year!
Pete S Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 Save yourself 5 grand and buy "Respect" by Otis Redding, same record...
