Zanetti Posted July 14, 2021 Author Posted July 14, 2021 First Hamilton Movement back online - now finished At - 6817£ From Cajun, I definitely prefer the beautiful green US Stock Copy ... don't even want to think about what this 45 would have achieved for a JM price ...

Harrythedog Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 Norma Jenkins. Rarest record on John,s site for a long time . Always was rare and you hardly ever see it up for sale or even played. Quality oldie and one of my all time favourites. Thought it might go for a bit more in todays market. 3
Winsford Soul Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Thank you for sharing as always my friend . As Harry said. Airplane song is a proper rare record that hardly ever comes up for sale , I bet there's been a ratio of about 10 / 1 in Hamilton movement favour compared to Norma Jenkins for sale over the last few years. But I'm sure someone will correct me on that I also think it's a great record. Edited July 14, 2021 by Winsford Soul 2
Frankie Crocker Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 Teddy Randazzo ouch - a set sale record any day of the week. Cajun Hart broke the sound barrier but the eBay hunters have pushed this one up and up recently. This Hamilton Movement was a bargain price given the condition of the copy a few weeks ago. High Keys doubled in price. John seems to be liquidating someone’s collection bit by bit, so they should be happy with the profits. 1

Popular Post Chalky Posted July 14, 2021 Popular Post Posted July 14, 2021 Hamilton Movement twice the price of Norma, this is what makes a mockery of the collecting scene and just goes to show its an ego trippin Dj led scene. Loons. Cajun Hart It was a tough sell at £400 a few years ago. I’d want the demo and the UK issue for that. 7

Concrete Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 Southside Movement did anyone else think it was just a badly mastered recording lacking in bass ?

Dave Pinch Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 see i always thought the black issue was rarer on the high keys..and there has been 3 times as many yellow demos as black issues thru ebay 3

Suggests the people who bid up items on these auctions are only after 'top 500' type sounds and value that over rarity. I'm guessing Norma Jenkins is lesser-known because its scarcity means it hasn't been hammered to death over the years! Edited July 14, 2021 by Joesoap 4
Benji Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 Norma Jenkins was pressed in the 80s or 90s. And comp'd a couple of times. so it had exposure to some extent. 1
Joesoap Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 Don't remember hearing it out that much in those days though. Ian Clark had it. Long time ago but can't remember anyone else playing it....

Ive had 2 uk mint demos in the past and both jumped in the same spot! And under the microscope absolutely no imperfection! I thought maybe it was a fault on master recording that maybe was mixed after the usa copies? I didnt know the uk issue jumped too? Although it would make sense that it would!

I always prefer the blue demo and blue issue over the yellow demo and black issue. I was told that the yellow demo/black issue combination was set up as a jazz series on Verve? Or could it be just a different pressing plant from the blue demo/ blue issue combination? Edited July 15, 2021 by D9 Ktf

Girdwoodinc Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 Honestly if I was to start siphoning off some stuff I be going through John or Jason regardless of the % commission charged as both are getting over top dollar for most things consistently regardless of rarity

Thank the lord I'm not a British collector and only have it on a white demo which I paid 90 quid for back in the day ( and was probably ripped off) I'd never be able to listen to it again knowing it was dubbed off an original complete with a jump.
