Guest Ste Brazil Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 I first heard this at a club in Leeds a number of years ago and have loved it ever since but never got around to buying it, what would be a realistic price to pay now, around the £200 mark or less? Ste.
Guest Ste Brazil Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Definitely after a copy at the moment, i've seen it going through ebay a number of times in the past but nothing about recently it seems. Ste.
Guest Lobster Madras Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Definitely after a copy at the moment, i've seen it going through ebay a number of times in the past but nothing about recently it seems. Ste. Bought one on here about a year back Steve.. £150 . fantastic tune by the way
Sjclement Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Brilliant, brilliant record. The issue is a lot rarer than the demo
Guest Lobster Madras Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 you got lucky then Makes a change... I usually sell stuff way too cheap and pay over the odds......
Andybellwood Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 I first heard this at a club in Leeds a number of years ago and have loved it ever since but never got around to buying it, what would be a realistic price to pay now, around the £200 mark or less? Ste. Soulsville @ the Baby Jupiter perhaps ? - used to be played there a lot by Jamie & Rich
Guest Ste Brazil Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Exactly Andy, i've a feeling it was Jamie's but he sold up years ago...i may contact Richie though. Ste.
Russ Vickers Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Never ever seen an issue, no one I have ever spoken to has seen one either...does it exist ??? Russ
Blake H Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 You might have known Plumby would have an issue.:-) BH
Guest Ste Brazil Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 He sold that years ago apparently!
purist Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 I've mentioned this on here before, but will try again - When this record was very popular (and about £60) I swear one night at ( I think) The Orwell (or somewhere similar that those guys dj'ed at) somebody played a unique version, similar to the single but different enough to tell it was different. Max & I talked about how it actually improved on the 45 version on the journey home, so I know I'm not going daft or dreamed it, but ever since when I mentioned it to anyone (other than Max) who would have been there, all I get is blank looks and "don't remember that John". Maybe somebody had got a home brewed mix, but it sure sounded "real". I washoping when they put out that CD that this "other" version might appear... alas 'twernt so
Russ Vickers Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 I stand corrected Blake, thanks for posting the link, hope you are well buddy. Best Russ
Dave Pinch Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 also on on an aussie issue....seen a couple of usa issues over the years.... i only got a beat up demo..but its better than nowt.. i think dealer price £200 demo..cheaper on ebay probably..issue would be a manny auction item dave
Guest Adrian Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 I think its my favorite soul record..... love it check youtube, theres an interview with Tony Drake. All about when he recorded it and jackie wilson is standing next to him and he started singing it like Jackie, he does a great impression singing the opening line. I'm really into the whole period of brunswick of about 71-75, their best stuff i reckon Jackie Wilson lps, Lost Generation etc but this 7", chi-lites backing him does get much better too these ears I was lucky enough to get one on ebay a few years back that went unsold, got it for £100 then.
Guest Ste Brazil Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Well Adrian if you want to sell it!

It was a £30 'find' at a record dealer in Yorks.
Guest Ste Brazil Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Steve, i'd be happy to take it off your hands for £30!
Ian Dewhirst Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Tony Drake will be on an upcoming Backbeats CD in mid October. Ian D
