Steve G Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 This is a brilliant record! Mine is No 497 / 500 Be quick.
Guest Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Sheeeit. Looks like they're sold out. If anyone grabbed a spare, a copy of this would make me EXTREMELY happy. Come on, be nice. :-)
Andybellwood Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 mine's 208 . Jumbo in Leeds had some . Its sensational
Diddy Morgan Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 cant find one anywhere dead sick someone is selling it for four times its value on ebay already! and the days not done
Guest Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Haven't had my jaw drop while listening to a new record in a pretty long while, but this record...
Benji Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 Get the album ("waters") on iTunes or so. Highly recommended if you're into Jazz.
Glynthornhill Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Aah so the ' Northern ' heads scurry again ( well cos it got played at a rare soul venue ) LOL over 18 months after it ' s been played and appreciated by many ... catch up springs to mind..... 1
Steve Plumb Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 cant find one anywhere dead sick someone is selling it for four times its value on ebay already! and the days not done There's a thread about summat similar on 'All About The Soul' re Record Shop Day releases
Steve G Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Aah so the ' Northern ' heads scurry again ( well cos it got played at a rare soul venue ) LOL over 18 months after it ' s been played and appreciated by many ... catch up springs to mind..... Oh F*ck off Glyn. This isn't about the northern scene picking up on a record after the modern scene shock horror. It's about a collectible vinyl release. I'm a vinyl man. Thought you were a vinyl man yerself? Edited April 25, 2012 by Steve G
Glynthornhill Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Temper temper - just stating facts - facts its been well known for 18 months - played for 18 months , now cos its a record store day numbered 12 its worth £50 plus do me a favour ....go buy his latest cd ' Be Good ' , maybe in two years a ' rare ' soul DJ will spin a track from it....
Steve G Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I know it has been known for ages. I don't know whether it's been played on the northern scene or not. I doubt it would be played on the rare soul scene. I am not condoning someone charging £50 for a copy. It was £10 on Saturday - but that is one of the downsides of this Record Day stuff - instant demand and exploitation. Have already said I like collecting vinyl. Scoff all you want, but it's a nice item to have on a 12" single. See you soon Glyn.
Glynthornhill Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Just defeats the whole initial objective of Record Store Day though doesn' t it Steve ? Not what they set out to achieve when first developed a few years back. Saw a shop on Saturday in Sheffield ( while footie bound ) that never has customers...300 queing outside at 9 am.... Hours later they are busy listing them on Ebay at inflated prices . Gregory Porter is a great piece of vinyl but a £10 item is what it should be. Anyhow ten years down the line we probably won' t have a RSD all the physical entity shops will be long gone me fears....
Steve G Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Yes I agree. But am still glad I managed to get one (for £10).

I'd love to have 'On my way to Harlem' on a vinyl 7 inch one day, superb track, better than this too, in my humble...

Petebangor Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 What? Off a CD??? Heavens above.... He'll have had it cut onto a carver. Sam doesn't know how to operate a cd player :-)
Petebangor Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I'd love to have 'On my way to Harlem' on a vinyl 7 inch one day, superb track, better than this too, in my humble... A brilliant jazz dance track
Cunnie Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Sam's played it I think. Was with Sam the first time he heard it at one of his birthday events last year when Mark Randle played it. Laughing cos he said he didn't like it & lo & behold a year later he's playing a bootleg vinyl copy of it. For what it's worth I think it's a pretty amazing track from a pretty amazing artist & yes I have got one of the 12" 3rd issues, 1st issue was the mp3, 2nd issue was the cd & download album. Wonder what they're worth now the 3rd issue is going for daft amounts
Diddy Morgan Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 what amazes me is in a high tech world a limited release of 500 items are issued , why not just issue more afterwards if they sell like hot cakes sureley the artist should benefit more than the entrepenuers .....just an opinion!! 2

Well said Glyn, this is exactly what has happened. :thumbup: Guess I'll also get a eff off from the unofficial northern scene's spokesman At least you have a love for Jazz! BH

BH Blake that is a rather daft thing to say really if aimed at me since I am not even really "on" the northern scene. What is it with you guys that you have to try and score silly points? Is it that you don't collect vinyl anymore or something? Edited April 27, 2012 by Steve G

Guest Polyvelts Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 I just got a copy from Soul Brother Records in Putney, they still have some left if anyones still looking. I couldnt care less if its been played on the 'northern' scene or I didnt know about it 18 months ago, I just like it and Ive bought it and now I'm going to play it and after that I'm going to have some humous and pitta bread, Ive only just recently discovered the joys of humous, apparently people have been into it for years !!!
Guest Polyvelts Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 Hmmmm. https://www.ebay.com/...c#ht_955wt_1263 Oh well, thats northlondonfiya !
Jordirip Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 Oh well, thats northlondonfiya ! Think I'll wait for the "Harlem" release with "1960" on the flip. Jordi
