Dufus Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I have a beautiful copy of Mary Wheeler's "I Feel In My Heart" on Atom. Been made an offer on it, I'm tempted but love the song..wondered what members thought was the going rate (whatever that is) was. Appreciate your help. Any info on Miss Wheeler or opinions of record & where its been played also gratefully received. Best Matt
John A Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Remember it being played at the Dome quite a lot a decade ago. Great record,love the ending. Would have thought about £400 tops for a nice copy.
boba Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Before anyone suggests it is, I can tell you that it's not the same Mary Wheeler who recorded on Calla. I know someone who talked to the Calla artist.
Dobber Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 I think around 2004ish it fetched a decent some,but it seems to struggle to get near the 300-400 quid mark now,although I think it's more than worthy of a 500 quid price tag! 1
Guest Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Remember it being played at the Dome quite a lot a decade ago. Great record,love the ending. Well, I played it twice there during 2002...maybe AlanH played it a few times the following year Agree with John, love the way it builds 1
Marc Forrest Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 think I got to know the record thru the Capitol Soul Club days as well. Bought it off Anglo soon after at a pricely sum. the sleeve still has tims original writing "first copy we ever had" on it. quite scarce to be found and every time I see a copy I am amazed to see how little the interest and therefore sales price is...maybe that type of midtempo-ish mid sixties girl soul its just not en vogue anymore. just like that beautiful lydia o`connor that springs to my mind immediately when thinking what I used to combine with mary wheeler back then. anyway, if your lucjky I amsure you can get one for 350 gbp these days...but occasions are very little.. 1

Prophonics 2029 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 (edited) Don't rhink Al has had a copy? Great record, funny B-side doo wop thing. Allways wanted it and would I still like it if I paid 509 for it. Got a cheap one, very cheap and yes would still love it. Not sure if its a white issue or white demo thing going on.

Pumpkinseed Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Played this quite a bit earlier than 2002 , think it was the first copy to come through , got it from Tim Ashibende straight swop for Tamala Lewis ( Marton ) not one of my better deals . Still a nice mid tempo tune though . 1

Still a nice mid tempo tune though . I recall when it first surfaced..I had to wait until the small clutch was found a couple of years later on before I got my hands on a copy. Traded for a Tamala Lewis...ouch Carl, very ouch!
Andyf Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 I remember Stuart playing this a number of times at the Brighton Alldayers. Evertime I would rush up the stairs to ask him what it was. The reply was 'You asked about this last time!!' Brilliant tune

Still a nice mid tempo tune though . Mick Smith had it 95-96, I know this for a fact because he let me put it on a tape (slightly edited) under a cover up name and title.
Guest Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Memory jogged - I think i may have had a copy of that tape aswell! Lots of expensive stuff and then Bobby Patterson ' Sock Some Loving At Me' on it...is that the one? What did he have it covered up as, can you recall Pete?

Don't remember, sorry, but I think the track listing of the tape is on the back cover of Beatin Rhythm 14 or 15, I think I have one in the garage so I'll have a look later. The tape also had names like 'Cornelius Dwyer' and 'Dewey Black' on there.
Ady Potts Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Got a real nice mint one I'd sell. Just drop me a pm. 1
Pete S Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Dave I found the tape track listing, not the same tape as yours as no Bobby Patterson, starts of with Celebrities on Boss, anyway it's on there covered up as Marie Knight.

Thanks for checking Pete...'Marie Knight'...of course! My one also had Cornelius Dwyer on as well, funny enough! The one I had defo had Bobby Petterson on it, as I thought it sounded as good as all the other biggies on it...even though it is a £15 disc!
Pete S Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Right here's the full info. Mick Smith got the first copy in 1995, he swapped it for L. Allen with a guy in Belgium. He covered it up as Marie Knight. The tape I did is called "Mick's Monsters" (ahem) and it's in issue 14 of Beatin' Rhythm magazine, which I used to run, dated Autumn 1995. The tape includes: CELEBRITIES DEWEY BLACK KELLY MICHAELS INFORMERS SONATAS CORNELIUS DWYER STRANGERS TEARS ENCHANTERS JAMES PHELPS CLARENCE HILL BETTY WILSON MARIE KNIGHT COVER UP WILLIE WILLIAMS COVER UP (ACTUALLY SOUL BROTHER AMNON ON CHESS) 1
