Stubbsy Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) 33 bids and up to $3,900 (that's £3,189) and it's only VG- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/70s-Soul-45-HAMILTON-MOVEMENT-Shes-Gone-LOOK-OUT-HEAR-/232182199649?hash=item360f233561:g:pPoAAOSwImRYWytF Edited December 30, 2016 by Stubbsy additional info
Frankie Crocker Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Big money, but in line with others shown on Popsike. Could finish at double the current bid despite condition. Great tune and perfect for cranking things up a notch at a 'Niter coming soon. 1

Douglaschip Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Agreed Chalky - sound clip much better than a VG- if in UK!!
Peter99 Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 It's a super soul record. Any soul collector/dj would like one of those............................................. surely. Well I would. Do not call me Shirley! Peter 1

You love scooters other people prefer records. Each to their own innit. I have to say that I have had thoughts of buying a scooter this year. Probably part of my mid life crisis. I had a Lambretta 200 when I was fourteen. I think that's what it was - great nic too. We used to ride it on the beach and roads around Mablethorpe. Unlawful behaviour of course but we never got done!

There will be some clicks and pops more consistently than that of a VG record but will play without skipping." $3,900 seems a hell of a lot of money for a record with clicks and pops which you probably can't dj with? On Popsike there was a VG++ with a slight warp which went for $6,643 back in October 2014. I'm sure there was a more recent one sold which was talked about on here but can't find it a the moment!

Peter It certainly is Peter, massive tune and IMO one of the best five records I've ever heard and I'd love one myself. Whenever I bump into Steve Woomble at Cleethorpes he just knows that I'm going to ask him to play this (and he always does) 2
Guest 1 huskyvan Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 In 2014 pound was a lot stronger 6 grand in dollars is not far off 6 grand that's frightening

He likes a drink or two too - just like me!

Pga1 Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Hiya, great record. Heard it played twice this week in Hinckley, green rooms Tuesday and sketchley grange tonight. Had some hammer over the years but still sounds great played out. There's more copies around than most folk think. If I remember wasnt it covered as bobby Womack ? Cheers 1
Guest chorleybloke Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Floorpacker down under too, where there are at least 4 copies. In terms of rarity, how many known copies..... 30/40ish?

There was I think 25 from the original little find back in the early 2000's, plus the odd one or two all ready out there and those found since. Still very rare in the grand scheme of things.

Listening to the first 1min 15 secs there are no pops or jumps and what background crackle etc is gone with the music. Sounds a pretty decent copy for a Vg- grading. His grading does say "MAY HAVE". But like you say it is a lot of money and I would have put a full sound file up or I would want to hear the full file before parting with any money. It isn't like the track isn't out there so a full file wouldn't have mattered. 2

Cheers Don't remember it being covered up, Billy Davidson I believe the first to play it around the time of the Berwick Upon Tweed weekenders. How many copies dos you reckon? There was 25 in the little find early 2000s, the odd couple or so about prior to this and those since......
Pga1 Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Hiya, I really have no idea how many copies, just like the tune. Not much help there then. Cheers 1
Ian Stacey Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Not that keen on it really . "not worth the attention it gets not in my books".

Wiggyflat Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 The thing with Jason/Funkyou is you never know how many copies he has.He has been dripping loads of Luther Ingram's out.He might have a 25 count boxfull!

Not seen a mint one on eBay for a while but there's one for sale weekly from one dealer or another. Wilson Pickett continues to lead the way in terms of mint copies in quantity. Jason certainly offers one of the best auctions around at present and continues to bring a range of good sounds to market. 1

I never really bought any record so that I could kick and sit on it. I guess we all have our foibles. I did once buy an expensive collectors car to cook my dinner on. For some reason it didn't work and the car caught fire. Fcuk, funny that. 1
