Dave Fleming Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Looking through JMs "MDORS" book,i noticed on the same page that the "Idle Few" on Blue Book Issue was noted as being rarer than, "Ernest Baker" on Blue Soul,did i miss something?, it took me alot longer and harder to find and more £££ to get the "E Baker" than it did to get the"Idle Few" Issue with silver writing,i thought it was a £50+ 45,anyone else have any thoughts on this?.

Guest Roccia Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Recently seen the IF stock copy (blue label with silver lettering) at £100. Great tune indeed... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Gene-r Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 (edited) I've only ever seen West Coast styrene presses of it. Remember, it was distributed by Sue, and most (if not all) of their issues and demos around 1969 were styrene.

Marc Forrest Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 the standard blue and silver label is available for around 40-75 quid there is a west coast demo , i have seen one that ian seaman from barrowby had before he traded it this i was told is a west coast issue which is worth about 200 i think In fact there are two blus releases, the on ewith sliver lettering is on styrene and harder. I traded mine with the author of said book for 200 UKP. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 the on ewith sliver lettering is on styrene and harder. I traded mine with the author of said book for 200 UKP. Bloody hell. I struggled for months to sell my copy on one of these forums, dropped the price over a couple of weeks, and finally let it go for £40. This was September 2004. Oh well.

Tony Smith Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 It's not that great anyway, what's the fuss? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
davidwapples Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 i bought a copy for around 35 quid which was the rare one last year , managed to get just over 70 for it in trades , its nothing special and not worth 200 in my opinion Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 It's not that great anyway, what's the fuss? I agree. It's incredibly poor in my opinion. But I still wouldn't mind those "extra" £160... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
