Sandy Williams

A promo of "Pushing a Good Thing Too Far" by Sandy Williams sold for  $150 in the Facebook Rare Soul Sales group. My question is this...is there any sort of demand for this record? I have it, don't like it, and want to throw it in with a batch I have for trading. Thanks in advance for any input.

 

Best,

I'd say the 45 has fans on the NS scene ............

I love it, and play it out from time to time - I'd say there would be some demand for it.

 

......but what do I know?  

 

All the best,

I remember it first from Dave Evison playing it when I was a lad.

John Manship auctioned one a few months ago.

The record sold for GBP £150 - not dollars as stated above.

Not bad but there's better versions..

Not bad but there's better versions..

 

Yes there is, but this is the 'different' version, and that's all that matters  

 

All the best,

P.s - It's not R 'n' B

AGREED

[Premium Stuff]

I think it's a very nice record. One I remember from a particular time and place as a youth which makes it better.

 

Incidentally, just checked Manship's Guide and that rates this record at £150.

I do love Sandy Williams, but have to say Barbara Lewis is my fave.

 

I guess most are of that opinion.

 

All the best,

I love it and I'd play it out if I were dj'ing. Best version as well IMHO.

[Ernie Andrews]

Sold mine last year

Did I make an arse of myself again?

[Benji]

I rate SW @ 100 in EX/M-. So 50 for a VG+ is fair.
