Ernie Andrews Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Steve Ive got one of those Nancy Ames ( South African) also got a shirley ellis Soul time as well! 1
Guest Gogs Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 I thought all jetstar demo's were on gold vinyl
Dave Pinch Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 i had whats your problem baby on red vinyl demo and my baby`s comin back to me on brown vinyl demo until recently
John Reed Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 I thought all jetstar demo's were on gold vinyl Terry Haynes and Alder Ray Mathis came out with black wax demo's
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 I thought all jetstar demo's were on gold vinyl The seller said 'Nice coloured vinyl' so I imagine is is Gold, I think it's because the sellers picture (above) is taken with something dark underneith the record.
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 I also got this for £20, which I think is a good buy? Don't see many! Photo's a bit small, but it's a 'Little Queenie' 'Hi' Demo, in mint condition.
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Also noticed that on the Solomon King, the 'A' side is called ''Say a prayer for me', but on the demo copies it's been shortened to 'Say a prayer'. What is the other side of the 'Levi Jackson' copies? is it the same? Never had one to look at. Edited October 1, 2012 by Steve Luigi
Tony A Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 The seller said 'Nice coloured vinyl' so I imagine is is Gold, I think it's because the sellers picture (above) is taken with something dark underneith the record. I have a Jetstar that is a brown & gold mottled finish, mixed batch of the two colours ? will scan later.

Northern Soul Uk Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 That's how it started off Bri , nice find the Dells tune mate.
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 Would you consider the 'Bill Black' demo a bargain? Just not seen another and liked the look of it.
Pete S Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 Would you consider the 'Bill Black' demo a bargain? Just not seen another and liked the look of it. It's not a bargain but it's certainly a rare one, remember discussing it before on here and general opinion that it is scarce - but because there's no demand these days, still cheap. I must have had half a dozen issues of Solomon King and I can honestly say I have never noticed that the title is extended, maybe I never looked at that side! Levi Jackson has a track called Don't You Be A Sinner on the B side. 1
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Thank you Pete, I have had the Demo of Solomon King and it was definitely 'Say A Prayer' on the 'A'. https://www.45cat.com/record/db8676 A little surprised that there isn't demand for the 'Little Queenie', still a floor filler even now in oldies clubs, but I do see your point, I have seen normal UK copies go for pennies. Sometimes though, and I'm sure you will agree, it's not only the record, but the look of the label that urges you to buy it, as was the case with this. Edited October 1, 2012 by Steve Luigi

Tony A Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Bought today at local charity shop, Barnsley Hospice fund raisers. 50 P each, look a bit scuffed, cleaned up pretty well, play better than they look & was suprised no cracks & pops that are audiable above the music. Played all 5 sides I got them for.
Pk 22dj Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Got the Solomon King on a West Indian Parlaphone White Demo and never seen one since. Good one for those who collect imports only.
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 Got the Solomon King on a West Indian Parlaphone White Demo and never seen one since. Good one for those who collect imports only. Never seen one on an import only UK, Always wondered if it got a release internationally, now I know. Love to see one though, anyone got a scan?
Pk 22dj Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Never seen one on an import only UK, Always wondered if it got a release internationally, now I know. Love to see one though, anyone got a scan? I will up load a scan of this record, but not sure how to put it on the site any tips welcome.
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) I will up load a scan of this record, but not sure how to put it on the site any tips welcome. S'easy. You need to upload it to an 'image hosting' site, there are many but the most popular is https://photobucket.com/ Just sign up, it's free. Then upload your photo. When you have uploaded it, there will be a link (URL) for the photo you want to use. Copy that (ctrl+c) and when you come on here to put it on, there is a little icon on the tool bar that looks like a little TV screen, Click on that and paste the link (ctrl+v) into the box, click 'OK' and bingo. Hope that helps. Edited October 4, 2012 by Steve Luigi 2

I've had that on Jamaican but I don't think they are demo copies, I think they are just white issues.
Tony A Posted October 5, 2012 Posted October 5, 2012 Put your pic on so it's seen without opening link
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 9, 2012 Author Posted October 9, 2012 Put your pic on so it's seen without opening link That's nice, not seen one before on Jamaican release. Not sure of the price though as it's a bit of an unknown entity. At a guestimate, depending on the condition from say £45 (G) to £130 (Mint). Like I say, just a guestimate though. I take it that the side you have uploaded is the 'B' side as on the UK presses? If it is, what is the 'A' on your copy? be interested to know??

Tony A Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Oh sorry Tony, my mistake. Would you agree with guesstimated prices?? Well out of touch now with prices so wouldn't like to comment on your guestimate, prices up & down & sideways nowadays.
Northern Soul Uk Posted October 17, 2012 Author Posted October 17, 2012 The Bobby Patterson has arrived and is the muddy brown coloured vinyl. Condition not too hot but plays through, and for £6 and on a demo?
