someone probably offered £10,000 out of desperation for it.. so maybe a word was had with the owner and the auction was pulled 🙃

That's right. I haven't thought about it at all!

Agreed... But the scene is rightly or wrongly about the rarest records, that are brilliant...this is the latter...Rob

Hi, what's up, Don't get us confused here at Manshipology  ... 😉

Couldn't agree more,  Cressa Watson sounds like Lulu to me. Robert Thomas wins! (Sorry wrong thread) :wink:

To the risk of being the worst mouther on here I find both to be rare and rarer 'pop' records. Northern soul be it for the sake of it but not my 'soul' cup. That with genuine respect due to those who do appreciate them or pay for them as I do also have my 'guilty secret' or 'collector's' only appreciated records As Well 👾

I must say ive never been attracted to any of the vocal versions,and if rob Thomas’s version is a couple of hundred quid,i would possibly stretch another hundred maybe for the cwatson version purely cos its rarer,not cos its any better! But all said and done i much prefer the tune as an instrumental (men from macon) and its what a five quid record?

only one on that grabbed my 'OVER PRICE Filer' was Chandlers @ £844.. about 400 quid over what its really worth right?  Its always about and was at £250 then 350 for years and years... I certinaly would not part with the best part of a grand for it... good deep flip though...

As for Cressa, love that track, but Id buy her others ones for cheap... and feel genuinly pleased with myself :-)  and we all love Lulu dont we? Cressa you are in good company 🙂

I'm not keen either. Sounds like funk/rock to me and reminds me of Dianne Davidson.

 

Chandlers must be one of the most hammered records on the scene, feel like I've heard at every nighter I've ever been too.

i never tire of it tho.. whereas tracks like whoo gotta find me somebody..whoo.. i just never want to hear that again. it affects me all year round like mariah carey does in december

I still like it, but it is overplayed, Dave. The oldies brigade think they're playing a classy underplayed tune, the more upfront think let play summat they know. Hence it's ubiquity it's fits in everywhere, but lets just give it a little rest now😊😉🤯

There’s a few like that. I generally sell em after five years and regret it ten years later

Is it a double a side disc?

Or is some jiggery pokery going on.

Robert Thomas was cheap as chips at one point, but a good solid tune. The instrumental filled the 70s soul packs.

Highlight of the week watching JMs sold prices. 

Does make you regret selling any records though!

or in 2022 is it about the 'most expensive records' which as you know is different to rarest records

What an annoying record.

Yes awful.

Came out in UK so I came across it at the time as bit of a British collectors thing though never heard it played out.

Hard to get I guess though a copy on Discogs now in VG+ for £15.

He was well clued up with what was happening here, he was in regular contact with Brits, Brad I think in particular.

Indeed but he still thought Elvis was alive in the interview he did, which is why I said "strange"

It's a sad day when people are tired of hearing great Northern Soul classics like this!

never liked it to be fair.. theres a few others too.. nothing sad about it.. but seriously you surely cant like everything deemed a northern classic just for the sake of it. even more so some people only like and listen to northern soul which i actually find disturbing

There's some popular records that I don't care for, but try not mention them as I don't want to spoil people's enjoyment of them!
