Mellow Madness? Elipsis?

How many Al 'Alonzo' Wilson's are 'known'?

Morris on Plush? Probably a few more than 5 of them.

Florence Trapp on You and I?

Florence Trap , a few about not sure on numbers .. About 20 of the Morris ..

Mike Ward had a box ..

Do you have a sound clip of Sonic Explosion? Think

someone played it at the Lifeline Weekender earlier this

year, if I'm not mistaken??

How about Ice "Reality" for your list? Should be pretty hard

Yes thats one I forgot ..about 3 known if you include Dr Souls ( Hitoshi T ) initial copy

There's one in Oslo as well

I get the impression Mellow Madness is rarer than Elipsis? Both pretty scarce.

I could do with a Florence Trap if there are a "few about"?

I think the Dynamic Upsetters is rarer on Mega (a beach music lable )3 known copies ..but Dave Raistirck can confirm

Nah, I've had two of those...hopefully not two of the three

I think Andy Witmore has one doesn't he? If that's the one I didn't think much of it personalyl. Bit wishy washy crossoverish for me. Or is that a different record?

He seemed to think he had the only copy, if I remember rightly, it was pretty late in the night, like 8am and down wind of a few vodkas.

Thanks for that . Jason .. maybe not ultra rare then Would never call it crossover ..quite frantic really

Love came in to my life - florence trapp - you and i

12845 refosoul

Storming tune, so how rare do you think it is and how much ?

Edited December 20, 200618 yr by Dave Thorley

Cry Baby - al tiki hudson - mr

12846 refosoul

This is a hard one, maybe a little more crossover than modern, his first release. tiki was his old block name back in the day

There's also another I'd love to ask about but I've been looking for it for about 5 years so best not flag it

Ice not that rare.

Think Mike Ward had 8 of the Morris's in 82 since then only a couple more have turned up.

Natural Impulse?

Several of the current cover ups that some of us have also qualify

Anglo-American had a copy on auction earlier this year I think...

Opening bid was £2500 or something

Did anyone else see that lovely Fluorescent Smogg concert poster

at the Lifeline Weekender this year..? Wouldn't mind

having that one in my living room

No, but by some bizarre coincidence I was talking to Mr Thompson this morning who mentioned that very same poster...true!

Defo more than 15 Morris's Steve .. I got mine for a tenner 1983 , Mike Ward said he had a few then !

Coverups once uncoverd seem to turn up , plus thats when the real test comes of rarity and with time of course!!

Natural Impulse was around £30 at Soul Bowl , and some at Voices .Rod Dearlove's place so I guess more that 5 ?

There's a couple we've got covered up which we know won't turn up - don't ask us why they're covered then!

Also got a box rammed with unknowns that haven't turned up. Will probably be playing a few of them at the Bass Museum.

Natural Impulse £30 When was that early 90s? Thought it went for silly money now?

I find Ice very monotonous - maybe I wasn't in the mood for it at the time.

I know of at least 4-5 copies not in the UK.. No idea how

many there are in the UK, though... Got mine from Butch..

Yeah we believe you Steve ... Nat Impulse does go for thousands as does DSOF just very good records really ..

The last record ever released on Laurie is rare. Can't remember what it's called right now -

Jakki on Stang is v rare - bit slow for some of the funky boys though.

Yes I had 2 I found in the US. Sold that one to Butch, keeping the other for myself. The post that is.

How about the Florence Trapp that Wrighty asked about...does your copy make 3 'known' in the UK?

  Steve G said:

Black Rock Educators on Cohen?

Can never make up my mind about this record as to whether I like it or not.

Also got a killer deep B side just like King Moses.

  Steve G said:

Must be over the magical 5 copies mark as 4 were sold from one seller this year - think he kept one back for himself, too- plus there's yours and at least another one in the UK...

Have you got Justin lamotte Steve ?

So what about Tony Fox "love, let love and be loved" on a 45rpm ?

I'm sure there must be some more copies out there, but I haven't seen 'em..

Was played off the LP originally, wasn't it?

  Simon M said:

Don't think so. Doesn't ring a bell....

I think searling and sam had 7''

What about Sy Hightower Steve, surely that should be there - "I Wonder Why" obviously

Whose got a Mark Meadows ?

What about Mixed Feelings Sha la la? and the Procedures Give Me One More Chance? can't be many of these two around

Did you know Soul Sam got Flo Smogg for a tenner from Soul Bowl 1985

Seems to be a few Ged , of Mixed feelings .. my mate got one for £30 off soulbowl some years back

  Simon M said:

I've been told that they both played it from the LP. But then again

I was only a kid back then in the early 80s, so I can't tell for sure..

Still, I've never seen it for sale before or met anyone else with a copy..
