The winning bid was £ 433.00 Edited May 30, 2012 by de-to
Steve Plumb Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 With that in mind, I think I'd accept £400 for my original :wicked:
Soulman Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 With that in mind I think I screwed up when I sold mine some 12 months or so ago..... and I thought £200 was a good price. Bugger!
Pete S Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 With that in mind I think I screwed up when I sold mine some 12 months or so ago..... and I thought £200 was a good price. Bugger! It was, might have gone up £50 since then, but no more than that... 2
Moxey25 Posted May 31, 2012 Author Posted May 31, 2012 its not worth more than 3 its a good record but not over 3 good 1
Liljimmycrank Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Anglo American had it on for £100 only a few months ago. £250 tops IMO. £433.........crazy bonkers
Marc Forrest Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 With that in mind I think I screwed up when I sold mine some 12 months or so ago..... and I thought £200 was a good price. Bugger! SAME HERE
The Tempest Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Bought mine for a £10.00 mid eighties ( original ) , first record I heard from a " Live " Wigan tape and fell in love with it as a teen , sold my copy my to a well known DJ in 2000 for £100 , nice record but I thought overpriced even then I seem to remember a lad's custom vespa decked out in this years ago and the single as the main theme , anybody Edited May 31, 2012 by 123-motown
Steve Plumb Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 t'other side is absolutely blinding 'proper' Deep Soul too

Supercorsa Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I seem to remember a lad's custom vespa decked out in this years ago and the single as the main theme , anybody No I remember it as well. Probably got a copy of the mag upstairs under the bed somewhere.
Benji Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I seem to remember a lad's custom vespa decked out in this years ago and the single as the main theme , anybody Remember that too. Owner's name was Eddie, "Eddie's my name" on Parkway painted on it as well (on the front I think)
dean jj Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 As Mr. Plumb rightly comments the deep ballad on the flip is a killer, and the reason I kept it out of a job lot, from a dealer who had pulled all the northern [!] out of a big collection and moved the deep stuff on to me. One of the half dozen bits I kept. Probably worked out at 65p. Nice. dean
Guest RichEvans Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) Remember that too. Owner's name was Eddie, "Eddie's my name" on Parkway painted on it as well (on the front I think) It's Eddie Wainwright's scooter........ full on loon :D Edited June 1, 2012 by RichEvans
Moxey25 Posted June 1, 2012 Author Posted June 1, 2012 Might be only worth 150 but try getting hold of one I got boot but not the same is it
Corbett80 Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I'd be happy to pay £150 if anyone has an original for sale?
Chalky Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 Is the boot easy to spot? Side by side yes, the green is much darker.
Dave Fleming Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 Is the boot easy to spot? The boot is a darker green to the orig which is a lighter shade of green,also orig has a MZL matrix stamp, the boots have the MZL scratched in by hand. Dave f.......
Chalky Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I've seen enough copies the last two years or so to more than satisfy those on here who want one for £150. Now you kow full well now some loon paid so much for one, and others on here saying it is worth £250 one so you have no chance of paying what it has cost in more recent times.
Bo Diddley Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 Here's a scan of the Boot (on top) and the original (below) together for comparison. Personally, I found it a difficult original to track down. I was told by a major dealer he was offered and took £400 in trades for a copy recently by a respected DJ. I have loved the tune since the 70's and think it fits well with the current fashion of funkier tunes. Cheers Kev Bod

dean jj Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Thanks chaps: i'll have to dig it out and expose it to direct sunlight [breifly] to check the shade of green. Non soul types really wouldn't get it would they? dean
dean jj Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Well I've dug it out [not a great filing clerk] and the matrix, to my failing eyes, seems to be scratched so not a real one. Still 65p for a ballad I'll only play at home [though I did play it on the radio covering for RS during a spurs cup run back in the late 80's/early '90's and a few weeks later it came out on a goldmine cd-funny that] so I can't complain too muchly. thanks again team dean
Corbett80 Posted June 4, 2012 Posted June 4, 2012 As I say happy to pay 150 for an original.....any takers??
