£700 in Tim Brown's guide; £400 in John Manship's latest guide - would imagine it'd make a fair bit more than £400 in an auction though! Great record as you say.

a figure of 8 or 900 comes to mind for the last one I saw for sale might be totally wrong mind

Wouldn't be at all surprised TBH - quality record, genuinely rare = name your price these days. Even at 8 or 900 is still reasonable when you think of the prices obtained for some, actually very common, records.

I had one of the first copies to turn up, bought from Perry (In fact I think this is my copy on the sound file). Ion had it covered up, I think as Charles Brandy...........could be totally off with that tho'. Brilliant record that after the first few, has never turned up. I remember Ian Levine reviewing this as one of his new discoveries about 3-4 years after we were playing this out & had to smile to myself. I recently tried to contact some of the people to do with the disc, in several different way's, but didnt have one single reply from anyone. Hard one I think.

Hope this helps.

Thanks to all participants

not sure if it helps, knowing firstly its dog rare, then, its way outta my pocket money

agree that its probably worth it, with some lesser quality and more common records, fetching far more these days
