Pete Eccles Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Sorry if I have missed it already being mentioned, but I've never seen it go so high, where's it going to finish???? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321707094493?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT 1
Tobytyke Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 the last one went for £1300+ which seemed over the top.great record but they do seem to turn up fairly often
Guest Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 the last one went for £1300+ which seemed over the top.great record but they do seem to turn up fairly often Yep....certainly not that rare.
Popular Post Mellorful Posted March 31, 2015 Popular Post Posted March 31, 2015 Well spotted Pete I don't like the tune so anything more than £1.55 would be too much for me, just hope the buyer isn't a DJ who could inflict it upon an audience at a later date. Perhaps this is comedy sale of the day material. 4
Pete Eccles Posted March 31, 2015 Author Posted March 31, 2015 As Steve says not as rare as it would appear,a great record nonetheless and plenty like it, but as with all records plenty don't like it, Still 5 days to go......
Sheldonsoul Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Just noticed on e bay timi yuro at £1600 with 5 days left and another one next to it on the page at £1800 buy it now , tell me was this a £600/700 tune 12 months ago ??? 2
Popular Post Jim G Posted March 31, 2015 Popular Post Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) LP copy for a fraction of that, but that's collecting for you .. oh, and for me Baby Washington is much better Edited March 31, 2015 by jim g 6
Guest Gogs Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 LP copy for a fraction of that, but that's collecting for you .. oh, and for me Baby Washington is much better Got to agree as i've got the Baby Washington version
Guest Aaron Darcy Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Yep....certainly not that rare. Your right not rare at all loads of copies in peoples collections true price £500 -£600 imo , only ever gets played at local handbag dos , you would never hear this at rare soul venues.
Liamgp Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Makes me wish I still had mine but I got tired of hearing it, playing it and, ultimately, owning it. Price when sold? Fifty quid... Well it was 1995.
Woza1 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Well spotted Pete I don't like the tune so anything more than £1.55 would be too much for me, just hope the buyer isn't a DJ who could inflict it upon an audience at a later date. Perhaps this is comedy sale of the day material. Strange cos recently when i was just about to spin it , Ted Massey told me that he played it twice in one night doin a guest spot, Personally i think its a brilliant tune, It may be common, but iconic to the soul scene. But hey some people like marmite. 3
Ted Massey Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 this was in 1988 and had only just been uncovered, the reaction to it was amazing cant remember the last time I played it
Guest sharmo 1 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 I usually end my spot with this especially in the east midlands and allways dedicate it to the late great Derek Allen , played it last Sunday at the Festival at Trowel and completely filled the floor , even Sam Moore was dancing !! very happy to keep playing this record. As said available on the album , was released on stardust and also the bootleg that's seems to have been floating around forever. the current bidding price proves that an original will always hold it's price or indeed increase in value and that boots / re issues have no effect on the originals market. Regards S.
Guest ruppy Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) well demand out ways supply and these oldies ,the last three copies all fetched well over £1400 yes we can all say were is it going to end,its not original 45s today is a world wide collecting scene not up and down the uk like years ago , yes you could pick Timi up years ago for £150 i have sold three tomagoes and four Nabays in the last five years all for around £1000 one tomangoes went through ebay last month $8000 so the sign of the times if you bought a old Etype Jag ten year ago for 10K today you would get £60K same with cars ,paintings ,records all go up in value I have also listed Rita & Tiras classic gone with the wind on dori in my sales with Timi Yuro this you could pick up ten year back for £300 so let see what offers i get on this but least the record scene is as healthy as ever before, and with people getting access to there pension pots now can see a lot of ladies going out and buying there minx coat ,guys buying records they always dreamed of owning good luck to them best Mick H Edited April 1, 2015 by ruppy
John Parker Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Agree with you Mick..like yourself...Timi Yuro 150...Rita and The Tiaras...250 Not any more As you say collecting these items is more international than ever...supply and demand
Woza1 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 this was in 1988 and had only just been uncovered, the reaction to it was amazing cant remember the last time I played i1 1988 c'mon Ted that was just a few weeks ago,, haha 1
Ted Massey Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Most of Teds are on 78rpm so dam rare bloody cheeky kids 1
Mellorful Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 this was in 1988 and had only just been uncovered, the reaction to it was amazing cant remember the last time I played it Glad you keep forgetting to play it and long may that continue. Sign of a good DJ when they forget the dross and play proper tunes, that might be why you are invited behind the decks at Stoke.
Pete Eccles Posted April 1, 2015 Author Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Are we saying that none of the Stoke resident DJs ever have within their oldies play boxes a Timi Yuro????? Edited April 1, 2015 by Pete60 1

Popular Post Jim G Posted April 1, 2015 Popular Post Posted April 1, 2015 Timi Yuro is mental money, compared to Baby Washington, really don't understand it! 4
Mellorful Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Are we saying that none of the Stoke resident DJs ever have within their oldies play boxes a Timi Yuro????? It'll be in the same box as The Snake
Northern Soul Uk Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 On the subject of other versions, has anyone heard the Pat Lewis version? Got a copy on 'Joe Boy' which I believe was bundled with a CD as the record has a CD holder middle in it. Whats the score with this version, I have checked her albums but no sign of it on those.
Guest Aaron Darcy Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) Strange cos recently when i was just about to spin it , Ted Massey told me that he played it twice in one night doin a guest spot, Personally i think its a brilliant tune, It may be common, but iconic to the soul scene. But hey some people like marmite. Brilliant or not its never worth more than £500 or £600 even current market value as i said before its now played out at local handbag dos only. Hey lot handbaggers think the Snake is rare. Edited April 2, 2015 by Aaron Darcy

Jim Elliott Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Still sends shivers every time I hear it. I've the Canadian release of the album, It doesn't really matter what it's on really though. I think when the final analysis is done, most would agree it's a bona fide anthem eh? ATB Jim
Northern Soul Uk Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Just put a copy of the album in eBay Sales forum
Corbett80 Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Agree with Jim gives me shivers too - ace record regardless of vinyl price etc etc. Just a brilliant soul record. 2

Mellorful Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Only if it`s on the rare STARDUST label! The label doesn't matter when the tune is crap; you can't polish a turd. I was too young for Wigan, so when I listen to tunes my assessment is based on merit and in the absence of sentimentality; on that basis (merit and without sentiment) 'TY - It'll never be over for me' still sounds crap no matter how many times I hear it. If a DJ needs to fill the dancefloor Detroit Emeralds - Feel the need will get the handbaggers off the bench just as easily and that'll cost a fiver. 1

Timi Yuro was never played at Wigan though it first started going big late 80's. Gene was the first person I knew who had a copy. Absolutely brilliant record, p*sses over Baby Washington's version. 4

Very pleased my copy went to the lovely Dawn Brown, who gave it the best home I could wish for! £100 would have seemed excessive to me in 1995, as I wasn't really on the scene then and had no idea of values. I bought my copy (£15 from Mick Smith in Stotfold?) in the early-80s simply because I liked the Small Faces version. It never got any reaction when I played it out in clubs in those days as it wasn't regarded as a big tune - too Country and Western in fact as someone once informed me! I think it went to Manship along with a R/W 'Walk With a Winner' and a yellow London 'Fortune Teller' - also £50 each. Where is the Tardis when you need it eh? Edited April 2, 2015 by ElGeePee 1

What I should have said is I bought it because she had done 'What's a Matter Baby'. Christ, I must be getting Alzheimers.

And here is the difference between not liking a record, which is what that is. And identifying a crap record. It`s most certainly not crap!......ok, so you don`t like it and that`s fair enough........but I don`t like, in fact I absolutely loath Get down with it - Little Richard, but through gritted teeth I can hear that it`s a quality track .
Andrea Ko Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 this is one of the few tunes that makes me emotional
