Anothergirlx Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Hi Guys Newbie here but I wondered if someone can help me? I have an acetate copy of Jobell orchestra - Never gonna let you go , on Jan Records demonstration copy 45rpm. The flip side has 3 tracks - Brothers & Sisters - Don't let em tell you Andre Maurice - Cream of the crop Maurice Williams - Being without you all played at 33 1/3 rpm Iam currently selling my 50+ yr old collection on Discogs and I cannot find a copy which marries up with mine. My question is - is this a genuine demo ? Or am I going to incur the wrath of the Discogs admins if i list it? The disc is exactly as shown in the pics - no matrix numbers , just JAN / DEMO in gold and the rest is typewritten (with no mention of Cream of the crop on the label) I hope I have posted this in the right forum - it's my first post! Thanks

Thanks No it's not a genuine demo..it's a carver /emi disc virtually worthless apart from the music content but no real monetary value. 2 1
Anothergirlx Posted August 2 Author Posted August 2 Oh thanks for your reply. I will pass it onto my friends kids, they're discovering the world of NS, so it won't end up in a skip! 3
Peter99 Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Not genuine perhaps; but, it's a nice looking disc. There are some very good looking carvers. Valueless, but a nice thing all the same. Please post some other stuff up - if you're selling your collection you might do better on here than with dicogs. Go on @Anothergirlx

Go on @Anothergirlx Hi Peter Thanks for that, which is the preferred forum for posting stuff? I'm just finding my way around here I'm selling because we are downsizing and don't have the room to store all my memories. It's sad - the soundtrack to my youth but I know when I pop my dancing shoes or get shipped off into a home for the bewildered, my kids will just toss them in a skip I'd love to think they've gone to someone who will love them as much as I do. 1
Peter99 Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Put them up in record sales - mods will advise. Welcome to the board - people will be interested in your records and will be positive. Good to have you here - my names Peter - forget the 99 it's a long story. What's your name? I just got my 18 year member badge. It's a great place - -just dive in. don't me shy, we need new members. All the best. Peter
Anothergirlx Posted August 2 Author Posted August 2 Thanks Peter I'm Lesley from Cleethorpes. Found my tribe originally at Cleethorpes Pier and then moved venue to the Winter Gardens. The pier is now a fish and chip restaurant and the gardens are apartments. Had some of the best times at both of those. Happy days I will look at putting my records on the record sales forum and as you say someone may discover a treasure! Thanks for being so welcoming 1

Thanks for being so welcoming Ah, Cleethorpes, my old stomping ground. I was engaged to a girl from Humberstone back in the day. I did the Pier and the Winter Gardens. My nephew lives in Cleethorpes. We may know each other - well we do now anyway. It's really good to have you here. Work your way through some of the forums - everyone is friendly and very accepting of new members. Peter
Chas Posted August 2 Posted August 2 What a strange combo, Jobell,Andre Maurice and brothers and sisters were huge Ritz, Mecca tunes. Wouldn't expect 'being without you' to be on the same disc.. but hey!! 2

Go on @Anothergirlx So I took your advice and did my first sales post yesterday and bagged a sale Wasn't quite sure of the seller etiquette but went with my 'first reply gets first dibs' which to me seems fairest. I'd just like to like to add how great everyone was, offering advice and help with future sales etc. What a friendly bunch you are! Lesley
Solidsoul Posted August 4 Posted August 4 "Never Gonna Let You Go" by The Jobell Orchestra on Jan was played at Blackpool Mecca Highland room almost as a brand new release! 1

Lesley Well done Lesley You'll not get any dud sales etiquette on here. Just a friendly bunch as you say. There's so much more to the site than selling records but I'll leave you to explore, find bits of interests and make new acquaintances. Happy Sunday. Peter 1
Anothergirlx Posted August 4 Author Posted August 4 Thanks Peter I am slowly exploring the site whilst juggling a new bathroom installation and grandkids ! I hopefully will dig out a few old pics from the East coast connection days and post those- see if anyone remembers me Enjoy your day Lesley
