Pete S Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) pete.smith@freeuk.com 01902 326306 HI, HERE’S ANOTHER LIST OF NICE ORIGINALS, AS ALWAYS THESE HAVE BEEN PLAY GRADED, FOR THOSE WHO STILL CAN’T GET A HANDLE ON THIS — IF I SAY THAT THE RECORD LOOKS VERY GOOD BUT ACTUALLY PLAYS MINT — THEN IT DOES! IT WILL BE PRICED ACCORDINGLY — NOT AS A MINT RECORD BUT AS SOMEWHERE INBETWEEN VG AND MINT. A RECORD CAN LOOK LIKE IT CAME OUT OF A SKIP AND STILL PLAY SUPERBLY. I SHOULD KNOW, MOST OF MY COLLECTION LOOKS LIKE THAT… LABELS ARE CLEAN UNLESS STATED. ONLY THE A SIDE (THE NORTHERN SIDE) IS GRADED ALL ARE USA ORIGINALS THE APOLLAS — YOU’RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT — LOMA DEMO VG++ 25 Little crackle before it starts otherwise fine ANITA BRYANT — MY MIND’S PLAYING TRIVKS ON ME AGAIN — COLUMBIA DEMO EX+ 30 SOLD Stunning beat ballad — bargain BOBBY DAY — PRETTY LITTLE GIRL NEXT DOOR — RCA VG+/EX 125 Just a little very minor background noise at start BIG MAYBELLE — YESTERDAY’S KISSES — SCEPTER VG+/EX 30 Same comments as above — fantastic version BARBARA MASON — AIN’T GOT NOBODY — ARCTIC EX 30 One mark on the vinyl not affecting play THE CHELL-MARS — ROAMIN’ HEART — JAMIE DEMO VG+/EX- 30 One or two light background pops CHUCK BERNARD — SEND FOR ME — ST. LAWRENCE EX- 25 Two X’s on label CAROLYN CRAWFORD — WHEN SOMEONE’S GOOD TO YOU — MOTOWN EX- 40 Brilliant, like all her Motown 45’s…drill hole in label, record plays NM THE DEL-CORDS — JUST A LITTLE MISUNDERSTANDING — UP EX 25 Good blue eyed version THE EMBERS — IT AIN’T NECESSARY / AIN’T NO BIG THING — BELL EX 40 Both sides have some minor scuffs but play absolutely fine THE FANTASTICS — ME AND YOU — SOUND STAGE 7 DEMO EX- 150 Minor crackle right on the intro otherwise plays great, a little ring wear to raised part of label GIGI & THE CHARMAINES — POOR UNFORTUNATE ME — COLUMBIA DEMO EX- 25 Couple of marks but plays as new throughout HONEY & THE BEES — WHY DO YOU HURT THE ONE WHO LOVES YOU — ARCTIC VG++ 50 A little crackle on intro, some ringwear to label THE INTRIGUES — IN A MOMENT — BULLET VG+ 30 This is the very rare local Philly release — one or two pops but better than most copies that turn up JANET & THE JAYS — LOVE WHAT YOU’RE DOING TO ME — HI DEMO EX- 20 Nice dancer JIMMY RICKS — OH WHAT A FEELING — FESTIVAL VG++ 150 SOLD Now this one doesn’t have any scratches but it does have background noise, presumably from playing with a heavy tone arm. Vinyl copy, multicoloured demo. Turn the treble down and it sounds great…but am listing it at half the price of an EX one KIM WESTON — A THRILL A MOMENT — GORDY EX 70 Nice copy. Drill hole in label. LANDY McNEAL — COUNTING ON YOU BABY — COLUMBIA DEMO VG+/EX 25 Bit of an odd one, makes a noise for the first 10 seconds but I can’t see anything wrong with it — fine as soon as vocals come in — has the good B side too, Stand Up And Be Counted, VG++ LOU JOHNSON — UNSATISFIED — BIG TOP EX- 20 One or two non sounding marks, plays perfectly PAULETTE & THE CUPIDS — HE’LL WAIT ON ME — PRISM DEMO EX 75 Rare girl group dancer from Chicago.

Guest Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 TOMMY TUCKER — OH WHAT A FEELING — FESTIVAL Typo?
Pete S Posted January 19, 2015 Author Posted January 19, 2015 Yeah, Tommy Tucker should of course be Jimmy Ricks, alphabetically it was in the right place but I had the Tommy Tucker version on my mind so made a cock up
