Chris Anderton Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 I have just had a copy of Spyder Turner "I`m alive with a loving feeling" on MGM. Having looked up the value it states £400 but I`m not sure if that is an accurate value...this is a hard record, I have never seen it before...plus...it is so so good! Anyone seen one sold recently or any idea on price? TIA Chris
Guest Mark G Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 last one i saw was around 150 dollars.... have you checked popsyche???

Jumpinjoan Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 I thought it was only on the French EP? Oh and the LP. You live and learn.

Anoraks Corner Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 The later release on US MGM of 'I Can't Make It Anymore' has 'I'm Alive With A Loving Feeling' on the flip. It is rare, even though yes it is a reissue! Manship auctioned a copy last year...it didn't go for anywhere near the book value (which reflects its rarity, one could say?) Yes, IAWALF also came out on the 4 track French EP and US MGM LP...not seen a UK 7" of it mind...would love to if it exists!

Is the re-issue yellow like old Animals records ? this is/was defo Spyder Turner record and when he got it he flipped over the Bside
Mick Holdsworth Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Pretty sure the only MGM Spder Turner in UK is Stand By Me / You're Good Enough For Me The "Alive" / "Can't make it" US single is also in Stereo Cheers Mick

Nige Brown Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) Is the re-issue yellow like old Animals records ? this is/was defo Spyder Turner record and when he got it he flipped over the Bside No its the Split colour one,,,, like the Formations and Velours sorta Turquoise/Gold colour!! I got Told Never seen one Neil Rushton has one i think!!! Nige Edited June 9, 2011 by Nige Brown
Anoraks Corner Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 No its the Split colour one That is correct. Sadly the Japanese MGM 7" of ICMIA only has 'Stand By Me' on the flipside...has a nice pic cover mind
Sean Hampsey Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 I remember this coming out. Around 1974 from memory. It was on the 'New Release' sheet in Blues & Soul at the time. It is on the Blue / Gold later MGM format. Never came out in the UK. Most folk play it off the US LP or French EP, as the 45 is pretty scarce. Sean
Wiganer1 Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 i wonder what searling played it off when he first spun it at the casino? lp??
Chalky Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 As said never released on a UK 45. US 1971 issue and French 45 EP only. £250/£300 I would have said but who knows with the prices some are willing to pay. Was only fetching around £150 when a reactivated big spin a few years ago for Andy Dyson. Surprised some haven't seen a copy of this. It's definitely been through ebay but doesn't show on popsike.
John A Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Any chance of a scan? I've heard they exist but have never seen one. Have seen this before, was thinking it might have been a black one, not the blue thingy..

Definitely been on Ebay. Last one I saw was a good couple of years ago and it did go for around £150 or something like that.
Ficklefingers Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Think you might be gettin' a little confused with the French EP Ken.. Had both in the box at the same time that night at Blackburn. The UK was Demo was as Mick Holdsworth states - 'You're Good Enough For Me / Stand By Me', and it was indeed from Mickey C. and him & his missus (Sue) had a major fall out over it, the next day, as it was her copy Mickey sold me !! :yes: Can't locate the UK scans at the mo, but here's the French EP..
bri pinch Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) SPANISH ONE THAT JOHN BRI Edited June 9, 2011 by bri pinch
Ficklefingers Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 (edited) Oops !! :yes: I meant to say Spanish - as you had already included the French.. DOH !! Glad you know what I'm supposed to be doing, Bri.. Edited June 9, 2011 by FickleFingers
Guest Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Oops !! :yes: I meant to say Spanish - as you had already included the French.. DOH !! Glad you know what I'm supposed to be doing, Bri.. Yeh and was a uk issue you got of Micky.
Derek Pearson Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 When the right honourable mister angus oldfield from barnsley guested with me on BCB Radio* recently he opened his selection by playing this rather wonderful tune off his copy of the French EP. He also said that the single version was different to the one on the MGM album. Pretty sure he told me more but if he did I can't remember. Sorry. Is it simply that on the 45's it was a much louder recording thus making it sound much more punchy and dynamic compared to the quieter sounding LP mix? derek Saturday 28th May 2011 Bradford BCB Radio 106.6 on the good old FM dial.
Ficklefingers Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Yep.. You're also right on that one Ken - yellow ISSUE !! Just for the record, concerning any future posts I may make.. If I say demo I mean issue - if I say French I mean spanish
Chris Anderton Posted June 10, 2011 Author Posted June 10, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the info guys. For now this copy will be staying with me, might let it go at a future date. I`ll post a scan when i get back from hols. Cheers, Chris Edited June 10, 2011 by Chris Anderton
Rich Buckley Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 I remember Dennis Brennan selling one of these a few years back, but can't remember how much it went for. Is he still selling 45s? Good find Chris, great track. Now, where's my LP.. Rich
Premium Stuff Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Old scan from eBay Just sell it to me Chris please Cheers Richard
Sean Hampsey Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 I remember Dennis Brennan selling one of these a few years back, but can't remember how much it went for. Is he still selling 45s? Rich Dennis is still very much in business. Tats and I were at his place only a few months ago. Sean
Rich Buckley Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Cheers Sean, I must have fallen off his email list... Rich
