Steve Ss Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 I really only buy 45s. However over the years (like most people I guess) I have ended up with lots of big dinner plates. I won't play them and before they go to landfill, are any of the following Various Artists worth selling? VWVON All Nite Long ~ early 1980s bootleg with 6Ts one side and modern ( ) the other Pye Disco Demand ~ Solid Soul Sensations ~ Ian Levine comp with Anglos, Jack Montgomery, Masqueraders etc This is Loma ~ Volumes 1-7 ~ I think that was the full set Talk of The Grapevine, Sound of The Grapevine and This Is Northern Soul ~ all 3 of the releases (I think) Capital Soul ~ Horaces Soulful Kinda Music ~ Soul Supply ~ which still has shrink seal on it and the price (£5.49 ~ Virgin records 1985!) ~ this has Contenders, Bell Boys, Phil terrell etc All are good nick, ranging from well played (Pye) to the basically brand new (Soul Supply). I know there's more in the garage......should I just leave them there?
Soul-slider Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Ebay if I was you, you'd definitely get some punts on the Grapevine's and the VWVON all night long. Seen some Kent L.Ps go for £25. Is the Horace's 'Capitol Soul' the second Shrine one? must be worth a bob or two.
Peter99 Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Yep, that WVON LP is a corker in terms of what it has on it. Everyone of those tunes were massive in the early 80's - the content might well have been lifted from a Sir Dickie playlist at the time. (No association with said person intended). Obviously an illegitimate release and I think we've had at least one thread on here as to its origins. Peter

Peter Hi Peter, good lp....shame to let it go but it has not been played in forever.... snapshot of the times..... Side2 may still be a bit modern for me think I bought it at Clifton Hall..? 1
grant Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 ok for buying if there is an LP only track on them, haven't bought many myself but the odd one here and there eg Tempests, Jimmy Hughes. 1

Probably on sale at Clifton Hall - one of my favourite all niters ever. I got mine mail order from a small advert in Black Echoes I think - it was a while ago though. Mine is battered to fook - including a coffee/tea stained cover! Peter

Northern Soul Uk Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Love albums, always have, good value for money and sometimes, unless you have a few grand to spare, the only way of getting hold of many tracks. I would far prefer to buy an original album with a track on that I want, then to buy a 7" bootleg Other good thing is that many times you get the full mixes rather than the watered down ones that get released on some 7".
martynthejazz Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Agree with above list, got about 2000 all soul or jazz funk, Latin, 60s soul, modern....etc
Glynthornhill Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Just sold two copies of the WVON white label album - both went for less than £11 - thought they would have fetched more in relation to the tracks covered on the album.

Thanks for that..... think it can go and sit back in the garage for that sort of price......... Fits in with the recent post on lower priced 45s not selling at all...
