Woodbutcher Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Can't believe my eyes , just seen something go on a JM auction for under a ton ...

Anything that sells for so little is patently not an auction item. Tami Lynn was a bargain - easily a £400 pound record in my humble estimation, but the soundbite for a lesser track would hardly tempt a serious buyer unaware of the unissued tracks. The top prices for the big sounds were a fair reflection of their worth at this current moment in time. 1

Davey S Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 It's a good toone the absolute opitone of a Northern Soul tune.

Keamus Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 Gene Toones is a fabulous record, but so is the other Simco rarity by Sandy Wynns ‘I’ll give that to you’. 2
Marc Forrest Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 Gene Toones: I already paid 2/3 of yesterdays price 5/6 years ago. Mint copy but still of course a ridiculous price to pay and I only did it because it was a lifetime long want and in mint condition. So no blame to the buyer, if you want it, you want it. What amazes me though is the price for Cajun Hart.... 1
Chalky Posted June 16, 2022 Posted June 16, 2022 If I didn’t hear Gene Toones for ten years it wouldn’t bother me. A great record hammered to death. 3

It is just another of those records you hear too much IMO, records do need a rest especially when the pool is it seems for choice is diminishing All good here! Like wise I hope and your good Lady. 2 hours ago, Marc Forrest said: Gene Toones: I already paid 2/3 of yesterdays price 5/6 years ago.

I have known it for over 40 years but for someone who has recently got into Northern Soul, it's still quite fresh. I try and take a pragmatic view of the Northern Scene and take it for what it is! Saying a record is hammered to death is a relative to the induvidual person, but certainly not true for everyone listening to it! I agree that a DJ who plays a totally predictable spot of big sounds, but does not use some imagination and include some semi knowns is tiresome. But others might be listening to the same spot and they hardly know any of the records, so they are all fresh sounds to them! 1
Wiggyflat Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 Surely Curtis 1932 Non boing is the rarest....had a handful of the boing but only had 2 non boing.... 2

Each to their own at the end of the day, I was expressing my opinion on a forum for discussion at the end of the day.

All sales bulls*it This is what he had to say 7 years back when selling the 1932 version. "the much rarer 1st. Mix 4.32 long Different mix without sound effects. Different break from DM 1879 & DM 81853 releases. His version does not have the hi-pitched percussion sound." Edited June 17, 2022 by John A 2
