Shirley Ellis - Soul Time

A very good question, about 3 - 4 years ago you could buy one for less than a fiver :ohmy:  now they are about £20.00+ a throw depending on the issue. An EX original US Columbia will cost around £15-25 and the US re-issue not much less. On original UK CBS 7463 about £25.00 or more and the later CBS re-issue about £15 - 20.  I think mine's on Australian CBS, would need to check.

 

If you want to buy one be patient, shop around, go for the early UK CBS issue with the 4 spoked centre :thumbsup: Good luck.

I remember the 3rd release on Blue Vinyl, it was part of a series of reissues, the sleeves were distinctive and had the logo 'Disco Doubles'.  Both sides of the vinyl had been popular in the past. 

 

There were quite a few to buy, I collected most of them as I was buying anything at the time that had a connection with soul music.  Boots the chemist always had Northern related records for sale (in Keighley) I do remember a cardboard display, like a rack stand with all the titles available.

 

My favourite issue of Soul Time is on Canadian Vinyl, clear and punchy, my speakers want to jump around the room when I play i!
