Nate Evans - This Time With Feeling

[Pierstomper]

Hi, Anyone got a definitive price for Nate Evans on DPR - 003 ? seems to go from about £40 to £120, or recommended max price ?? thanks

[Flanny]

re activated so demand is higher than last year sold one to a Japanese collector (mean green copy) on ebay got $140 was shocked

bought one of here of Kev Whitcombe at a realistic price( mean green copy) was happy..........

What value would you put on the 1st issue, Nate Evans & Buss ?

[Kjw]

Nate Evans & Buss - £150

Nate Evans & Mean Green £50

I think a lot of the Buss copies are pressed off centre which may be why the other press came out

[KevH]

Nice b side as well....

No idea Dave, but I have also wondered about that one!

For some reason I haven't been able to find a copy yet. I even found a PICTURE of nate evans which is impossible to find (it was used in the numero twinight CD). Does anyone have the cheaper one for sale? Thanks.

My copy of Buss plays fine on both sides, nothing off-centre. The explanation of group name from Buss to Mean Green being due to a possible mis-press seems a bit odd. Why change the name due to a pressing fault ?

The UK demand for this drove the Mean Green re-press (legal or otherwise ?), which looked very close to the 1st press, and the reason I bought a Buss copy to be certain.

Bob ...you really need to be more vigilant on the bay

A copy went thru a few weeks back ..albeit a vg/vg+ copy https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item19ce30037c&item=110833435516&nma=true&pt=Music_on_Vinyl&rt=nc&si=%252F4T9sJr1K%252FebRfZmBhOxe3ZW6lU%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

Very cheap indeed ..so not sure about the big demand on this one ?

Here's a complete guess."Buss" disbanded with member /members leaving,and the renamed "Mean Green" became to new backing band.(Money complications involving the re-issue.)

I bought a mean green one from someone here, thanks so much. Nev, I think I did bid on that record. I don't think mean green or buss were his band, I think it was just made up for the record. In Gary, IN Nate Evans was the singer for the band the Fabulous Kings, who later had a modern soul 45 in about 1980 (long after Nate left). Thanks everyone.

Glad you posted that up, I was a bit shocked to think the mean green one was going for £50, I thought £15

I'm well out of touch!

Rooted mine out for a sale later this month

I've both copies, personally cannot stand the 'Feeling' side, but love the flip, and it's my favourite of all the versions, not sure on off centre pressings, mines spot on and mint, Nev's right about the recent ebay sale, very cheap, not that easy to come by....

It,s because they used to get the BUS from MEAN GREEN......but that route was stopped so they were left high and dry at mean green................that,s in solihull by the way
