Cult sound around the North West early 90's when Guy was playing it at Tony's Empress Ballroom, and easily available for a tenner at the time - remember even then thinking it was a tenner well spent, and still not one I'd part with easily

Sold a Vg+ copy for £80.00 a few weeks ago

Hi Chris

Jock Oconnor and Adey Harley were playing it at Shotts mid to late 80,s,you are right,gained a cult following then and now it seems demand is very high, IMHO though "Goddess of love" is the best thing they did, the postage would cost more than the record

Hi Kev, 

I'd say the same about 'As long as I live', which you can still pick up for pennies. Also 'Just another lonely night' - cheap as chips, and what a voice James Epps had - not many better IMO

Cheers, Chris.

A £30 to £40 pound record that usually sells for between £70/100 due to the hype

Likewise here Dave, bought for buttons but relented to a good offer, suppose that's one of the downsides to this mad mad world of collecting soul vinyl

I first heard it played by Bob Hinsley back in the early 90's and like everyone says, about a tenner, but that is a very long time ago in the real world...Whatever that is.

First stocker I had was a fiver sold that when I got an 8 quid demo, if we knew then what we know now keeps raising it's head more and more, kept the little demo though lol

I actually prefer their Westbound 45 I Got To Have Your Love to most of their other output.

That got a UK release on Atlantic didn't it?

I like Falling in Love (feel good all over) one of the other Eastbound sides and Pinpoint it down on Soul.

Top group, Cleveland Horne was in it also?

Indeed it did mate.

I like their unreleased version of "Take him back if it makes you happy". Would be nice if they issued it in one of those box set motown 7's, if they do another.

So by this logic my copy of cant stop looking for my baby must now be now worth just a fiver. And my Fantastic Four LP  on Ric Tic should be £1k on Manships auction?

That's where I heard it first. 6 pounds from Roger Banks in Allanton record bar.

Think it was Gilly who said when in Detroit they got into a lock up with boxes and boxes of Ric Tic, Wingate etc.  Evrything was there for Ric Tic apart from Fantastic Four 'Can't Stop Looking'. 

It is a great great record tho.

i even like the funkadelic cover..
