The Unfashionability Of Mid Tempo 45S


Platters 81

Recommended Posts

Yep, and it makes me weep.... That said if I can still pick up once expensive best ballads and mid tempo stuff cheap, them that's good right? I just can't sell them on....

George smith, jimmy helms - your mine you, milt Greyson - old standby, tears - good luck my love, ray and Dave, mellow fellows.... It don't get better than that does it......

Oh and before someone pipes up, robin rice was never as good as George smith, sorry I won't be turned on that.... Laughs....

Robin Rice beats George Smith into a cocked hat.  Bachelors Savory Rice beats George Smith into a cocked hat.

Agreed I've bid on a few that i thought were out of vogue and lost - still lots of collectors who are after mid tempo stuff. I think it just doesn't dominates nights like it used to.

same here--bid on loads and got outbid--maybe not dominates NIGHTS but still goes down a storm on sunday chillouts

Wow, you just can't imagine someone in modern day having such bad taste, but then.......

 

Here you are, have a listen to these and then see if you can do any better in the good taste stakes
