Where can I find a current price guide for the above.

Manship did a brilliant one one which must be getting on for 20 years old now and the record collector annual edition seems to be miles out in it's soul record valuations.

    John Manship is currently updating his British guide. I think it will appear sometime next year.

Discogs is quite helpful. You can see what things have actually sold for and gauge availability / rarity / demand. Bear in mind price highest price a record is offered for almost certainly isn't what it will shift for. There's tons of overpriced stuff that never moves that would do for a more realistic price. If I was pricing to sell, I'd undercut the cheapest on offer there in similar condition.

Also 45cat owned / want ratio is good for gauging rarity / demand (tends to be a more hardcore collectors site than Discogs).

Loads of other online resources of course.

Hope this helpful.

As Joesoap says above. I'm not sure how relevant dealer price guides are anymore. Manship's guide is useful as a reference book but his prices rarely set the price now.
