Great record this, just been discussing it with my brother.

We know it was a Dickie Searling spin, very late Casino, I know he sold his copy for £50 back then.

Just been giving it a listen, what a great great soul record, it's screams of soul quality IMO.

Was this revived post Wigan? If so when and where?

What would that £50 return these days?

there's few copies about ,Mick H played  it few months back at a venue i was at.

value i would say 3k for decent copy.

So after Richard got it from John Anderson originally, I am pretty certain his copy ended up with Butch who played it for quite a while still covered up, certainly into the 90s.

 

There are a number of copies around.

 

Can't remember for sure now but I think mine came from one of them Burnley guys.

Fred Dibner Jr played a copy at the Wheeltappers & Shunters club last month. How many more copies are there then? :wicked::D

 Spot on.......as long as you "just know a record".....thats all that counts

It was a Wigan spin for Richard - 33 years ago....

 

BTW where has the Stanley Evans Phil La acetate gone? I had my eye on it when Martin got it back a few years ago (he had it in the 70's), but he sold it on before I could spurt out the words "When you come to sell it...." :rolleyes:

Gary Spencer had it for years, one of the few biggies he kept wasn't it?  It was auctioned by JM a couple of years ago, where it went, didn't Sam buy it?

Sam brought it about 8 years ago from JM auction, and then sold it again.....

Was it an acetate Steve, thought is was a vinyl test press? Thought I heard Butch play it a while back??

I used to mispronounce this label for Years, until put right by an American friend. Apparently it's pronounced "Phil Lay" hence the fish, or was I the only one saying it "wrong"
