Impact Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 If you could choose just one record to own, not necessarily need to rare. Just blows your mind Mine is Frankie and Johnny, I'll hold you on decca demo, f*cking immense!!! What about yours???
Guest MrC Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Bloody Good Question! And a hard one to answer depending on time of day and what kind of mood you're in! If pushed, I'd go with the following: George Tindley - Ain't gonna worry about you. The one thing I had that I regret selling more than any other record, gives me goosebumps every time i hear it - just missed on on here a few weeks ago too, hadn't logged on for about a week - gutted! If I was going for the rare, rare stuff it would be one of the following: Dancing A Hole In The World - Jimmy Delphs Bring Your Fine Self Home - The Soulettes
Impact Posted April 14, 2011 Author Posted April 14, 2011 Loving your choice of tunes , especially George Tindley. Cracking version of dancing a hole of the world by the Esquires too at a fraction of the price, looking for that myself
groovywoovy Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Elbie Parker - please keep away would be mine
Guest FunKPunK Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 I got a copy of this in the early 90s and it did a disappearing act from my house when I got a visit from a "friend". Played it at the Blackpool Mod Rally around then, still look for it in my LP sleeves on the off chance lol even did so tonight. Fek Im still pissed off with that one... Bloody Good Question!

Philt Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 George T is absolute magic One record Trent Sisters - a letter a day (Gogate). Never had one or even a sniff but it's got the lot for me, absolutely awesome record and still to have its time in the limelight due to rarity I suspect. I'm v fortunate to have my other three all-time 'dream' tunes, none of which I thought I'd ever own, but I'd probably consider letting one of those go for a Trent Sisters. Funny old game innit; never bloody satisfied atb Phil
manus Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Which label Manus ? Janus or commonwealth I'll have a William Powell Major Minor Ken - great double sider with I'll be there Edited April 15, 2011 by manus

Just blows your mind Mine is Frankie and Johnny, I'll hold you on decca demo, f*cking immense!!! What about yours??? Thankfully one i have but It's a total dream 45 RICHARD CAITON - I LIKE TO GET NEAR YOU 1
Philt Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Thankfully one i have but It's a total dream 45 RICHARD CAITON - I LIKE TO GET NEAR YOU Impeccable as ever mate
Guest Brian Ellis Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Thankfully one i have but It's a total dream 45 RICHARD CAITON - I LIKE TO GET NEAR YOU Like you Nev, this is my all-time 'dream record' and one I managed to persuade Colin Dilnott to sell me about 10 years ago. Not far off Richard Caiton, I'd place Tearra - ' Just Loving You' - again lucky to have acquired this about 15 years back.
Impact Posted April 15, 2011 Author Posted April 15, 2011 Some brilliant tunes here folks, love to hear the wide variety from the wonderful scene
Kev Cane Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Like Nev, Richard Caiton is never far away but 2 that spring to mind for me at the moment are Unique-Here we go again-Col a Soul and Sandy Golden-When we,re all alone-Masterpiece oh, and The Saints-Theres Gotta be a reason-Wigwam. I,ll think of some more in the next 10 mins thats for sure. Kev
Steve Myers Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Probably like most, I have managed to aquire many of the records that I have aspired to own over the years, and although there are still many more on the wants list, there is one that I have resigned myself to never owning...........

Dave Harrison Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 I recently tried to put a CD together of my all time top tunes, and that was hard enough picking just 25 ! What do you leave out ? To pick just one is incredibly difficult, but one record that has consistently come into my top-3 ever since the day I heard it is Sandra Wright - I come running back. Soul heaven ! Dave
Guest Nick Harrison Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 Again thankfully this one delight would never leave our home - Willie Dee "It Looks Like Rain on Chi Heat, but the one I would love to "own" has to be the Dyco labelled 45 of Clarence C Coulter's - I Cant Fight The Feeling .
Jez Jones Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 I recently tried to put a CD together of my all time top tunes, and that was hard enough picking just 25 ! What do you leave out ?

Dave Thats exactly it Dave ..was discussing this with the 'topic starter' yesterday evening. He asked me--so I trawled through the tube---and what transpired was tune after tune of 'you just had to have been there' sounds ....however if Butch is 'hanging them up'---if he wants to donate his 'Just like the Weather'----I'll look after it for him and give it a good home lol
Guest MrC Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 Might be your lucky day, drop me a PM! Done it mate :-)

It all seems to depend on which venue I'd been to, who I'd just reminisced with, or what mood I'm in! I've had to start labelling them "Top 20 Wigan 1976" - Top 20 Stafford, etc!
Citizen P Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 Just the one ?? Jimmy Burns- I really love you ATB Tony

Guest Ollie Lailey Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Think my dream record to own would be Soul Incorporated - My Proposal on Coconut Grove one day she will be mine! soul incorporated - my proposal - soul-tbc
snooky Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Magnetics-When I'm With My Baby SABLE demo...well an issue would be good

21 Again Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Younghearts. a little togetherness taylor made for northern soul.
Billywhizz Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 gerard,,,,,,happiest man just luv it Never heard anyone play this but me. I think mine (at the moment) would be Court Davis - Try to Think. Hey up Greg, I had it on tape for the last 30 years plus. It was bounced around Norwich in the early 70's, it was played at a few all nighters in Norwich. Corn exchanged in Cambridge aswell at the Howard Mallet. I remember it being picked up at a Cambridge market on the off chance, if i can remember its red and white or red and yellow label. Nice up tempo floater, male vocal, the song 'he has a dream, then put it into words and try to live the reality' Excellent words. The nearest thing for me on record which i bought a few weeks ago was Malcolm Hayes soundtrack. I believe there's possibly two maybe three going, its gotta be worth 2K today, i think he paid 20 pence for it.Yeah you've got a good record there Greg. I might even put in on vinyl one day. I hope that helps. Keep on keeping on. Record collector in Billy's world lol.

Needs a bit more exposure I think. I may even give it a spin at Haigh Hall nighter 1st May.
