his first 45 was actually ernie king on mercury. He still played blues around Chicago until he died a few years ago.

Yes. The release on the LK label is in stereo and is from 1976 and has also got a different flipside.

the producer was selling copies on ebay a few years ago most were about 150GBP

I don't think it was the producer selling copies. What was their user ID?

i thought £100/£150 seemed about right

Is this the same chappie as King Ernest (without the 'a') on Barry?

I think so but I'm not sure. He did have a few more records though, he had a nice funk 45 and another 45 which i haven't heard because butch outbids me on it every time it comes up for sale.

Bob, do you have this 45? the issue is very rare.

I have a red stock copy. Maybe 7-8 years ago a Chicago dealer got a copy and (I felt) he was gouging me at $40 so I bought one off gemm for cheaper instead of him. There were a few on gemm at that time. Now that people are looking for it there's obviously not copies on gemm.
