Just when I thought there wasn't many bargains left on the bay,I got this for £6,not quite a fiver mind you!

 

Can't stop listening to this Dobber!  Fantastic tune.

 

Regards.

Here's 3 absolute belters that can all be had easily for under a fiver. Starting off with some blue eyed brilliance, The Buckinghams 'You Misunderstand Me' on the flip side of 'Back In Love Again'...

 

 

And the other 2 just give me goosebumps. Firstly it's some spine tingling midtempo magic from one of the greatest soul singers of all time, Mr. Al Wilson with 'Touch And Go'...

 

 

And finally it's Keith with a heart wrenchingly soulful ballad 'Our Love Started All Over Again' on the flip side of 'Ain't Gonna Lie'...

All these superb cheap records, so why does any DJ play bootlegs? Fear, lack of imagination, ignorance or what? I know we've been here before, so take these comments as a statement rather than a question.  :huh:

Just picked up on ebay the week before Xmas as a 99 pence gift to myself:

 

Aretha Franklin - Oh no not my baby - British Atlantic - Think it did not get a 45 release in USA

 

Fabulous crossover version of Maxine Brown hit.

 

Well worth checking out!!

 

Happy New Year to all.

 

Adam.

Chris, looks like you most releases. But there's at least one missing, it came out twice in Germany. First one is the one shown in your post (1x WD, 1x PS). Second one came out in the early/mid 70s, probably to tie in with a UK re-release (Mojo?). Funky art cover, had it once but sold it as it was a reissue. Never found another copy. Must have bombed.

There are probably even more releases of this record, it was pretty popular late 60s early 70s in the UK clubs, north and south.

Yep thousands of those wee pesky 45s in that expensive price range of a fiver ??? but this one takes some beating ? Issue n demo ....both copy's cost less than a fiver ??? issue copy have already worn oot .... Im just off to the deck to try and see if i can wear the demo oot ....

Mighty Marvelows "Talikn bout ya baby" ABC Records

Heart stopping group soul brilliance .... Love it ... Might buy a third copy in case I wear the demo oot ???

Right on right on ..... Talking bout ya baby....tfk

Gotta agree here. One of the most fabulous records that you could always pick up for a few quid. Around the £30 mark on most sales lists now but for me a record for peanuts that supercedes the quality of records going for silly money!

Check out also - Mighty Marvelows - I'm so confused - ABC

 

Similar to talkin bout you baby - and also  cheap and superb!

 

Adam

Both have brilliant flips aswell, "I,m without a girl" and "In the morning" essentials for group soul collectors

Paid about £2 for mine - don't know what it is now. Brilliant record.

In fact I just looked up on Discogs - eight for sale from £2.49

 

Lou Courtney - What do you want me to do - Rags

Great double sider this little beauty for me..... Good call

Just bought this for £4 on MusicStack. More proof positive if it were needed that you CAN pick up not just great but absolute top drawer quality northern soul for under a fiver. Come on, does it get any better than this? If it were dog rare it would be a snip at 4 grand, never mind 4 quid!! I'm a very happy bunny :)

Can still be picked up for a fiver if ya savvy. Think the 150mph side is a piece of shat myself but ya got the choice of having an heart attack ...

 

 

or like me you'd probably rather put some comfy slippers on, unwrap a Werther's Original and flip it over ...

A bit of magic from Edwin's bro

 

Some may go for the flip "What Is Best For me Is Better For You" but for me it pales considerably against "Who Am I Without You Baby"

 

A crime to see records like this unsold at £1.99

Forgive me for being a know nowt Chris but which is the original here?

Regards.

Drew.

 

Strictly speaking the one on Bank, but they all are except Mojo, Collectables & blue/gold MGM.

If you look around, this one can be picked up for around the £5 mark. I think mine cost me about £7 off MusicStack last year but I'm sure there will be the occasional one on ebay that can be picked up for even less than what I paid  :) .

 

In summary ... Quality tune, cheap price. Nice!
