[Guest]

Emotions is a lovely crossover record that I think featured on a past Kent CD and has had the odd play. Probably retails for £15-20

John

[Pete S]

Apparently one of The Spinners tracks was up for £100 recently! I'll take half that

[Jellybean]

JACKIE MOORE - THIS TIME BABY - CBS

DIONNE WARWICK - ONCE YOU HIT THE ROAD - WARNER

Only two i,m familiar with,and both are excellent tunes!!

How much??

[Pete S]

Really, no idea, thats why I was asking. Someone already asked for the Jackie Moore record. Tenner for Dionne?

[Pauldonnelly]

MIKE DAVIS - AIN'T NO STOPPING US NOW -JIVE

sold recently for $200 Pete....go get em bro

[Guest Bogue]

Tower of Power one is a nice tune, guess you would have heard that one before Pete.

Not worth much more than a couple of quid though i'd have thought.

Pete whats the B side?

[mischief]

JACKIE MOORE - THIS TIME BABY - CBS

Better than the o'jays version

[Guest]

Pete whats the B side?

"Now that you're mine again" ?

Derek

[Guest Brian Ellis]

SMOKEY ROBINSON - JUST TO SEE HER - MOTOWN

Won't nett you a great deal (£10ish), but for anyone who doesn't know this and wants a great Smokey record from the 80s, buy it blind. You won't be disappointed.

Brian

[Pete S]

MIKE DAVIS - AIN'T NO STOPPING US NOW -JIVE

sold recently for $200 Pete....go get em bro

Are you winding me up Paul?

[Pete S]

"Now that you're mine again" ?

Derek

No it's "I've got to make it on my own"...

[Ernie Andrews]

Tyrone Davis is excellent but only worth a fiver

Blood sweat and tears was very popular last year Pete and is £15 or so

Split decision has been popular up here for years as well Pete- Not that easy to get on 45 and its obviously UK as it wasnt released in US on 45 still not very much though £10-£15 I would think

[soulAdequateNP]

THE TAMS - TOO MUCH FOOLING AROUND - CAPITOL

This is only borderline '70s, being recorded in 1970, and is actually more '60s style, I've played it at Barrow Hill and the Qube - it's in the same vein as Be Young Be Foolish Be Happy

[Mark R]

MIKE DAVIS - AIN'T NO STOPPING US NOW -JIVE

sold recently for $200 Pete....go get em bro

You are joking!! Have the LP with this on from early 90's.......no 45 unfortunately!!

Cheers,

Mark R

[Wulfie09]

Better than the o'jays version

funny - used to play this out in normal clubs years ago - and I enjoy the Ojays version more now

Wulfie

[Wulfie09]

DONALD BYRD - Electra

I think this one is a double sider Pete - and I wouldn't have thought expensive, as it was popular in the Jazz Funk/Club scene - and doubt its that rare ( well it can't be cos I found one in my garage)

probably sells for a fiver or less - and if someone else comes and says different my copy can go too

Wulfie

[Guest]

No it's "I've got to make it on my own"...

That's weird my copy of the 12" has "Now that you're mine again"

Hang on I think we may be at cross purposes here, the record I'm on about is Living a little laughing a little b/w I've got to make it on my own, but it's from pre-12" days, 1975 - did I reply about the wrong record?

[Richard]

I've Got to Make It On My Own is the side, Pat Brady had one up for a ton a while back - dunno if its sold or not though

[Richard]

DIONNE WARWICK - ONCE YOU HIT THE ROAD - WARNER

Great tune but probably only about a tenner

Yes i thought the question was about the B-side of "Split decision"

There was a thread on here asking, was this the rarest Spinners track.Obviously not and stated as being valued at £20-£30.

[Guest]

Replied about the wrong thing

Mmm didn't realise we were talking about the NOT rare but hugely overpriced one. "Split decision" on 45 is a good deal more ellusive. But neither of them are worth more than £15-20 IMO.

I'm not saying worth a ton, Mr Brady has that honour

[Guest]

Mr Brady always had an "enthusiastic" pricing policy.

What gets me is the people who pay these prices. Where is the logic a uk issue 45 on Atlantic by the Spinners from the mid 70's on what basis would you anyone believe it was worth a ton?

I think I´m familiar with all records listed. Most of them may not be worth that much, but are quite nice music-wise.

One example: the record by Impact is a cheapie, but quite nice in my opinion.

Group features an ex-member of the Temptations.

Best,

Melismo

[Guest woolie mark]

put the emotions and the chilites (uk only on seven) in the loft - low value now, but in the future they'll fetch good money

the ashford and simpson is a jazzfunk-dayer anthem that will have it's day in the modern rooms at some time in the future

you're gettin a good ear for the modden stuff pete, i'm impressed

Yes he's Damon Harris who has superb house/garage hit called It's Music as a solo artist.

Inspired by your post I just pulled out his self-titled solo set from 1978 on Fantasy Records.

Haven´t played this since I don´t know when...

No I'm not Mark, I just found a pile of records I'd chucked out as junk and this is what was there, pure fluke!

[Guest jo65]

Isn't it Damon Harris who is at Prestatyn in Oct?

I think I've got a UK Stax demo of this as well. Might be wrong. To be honest, I've never even heard it!

[Djmelismo]

Yes, Damon Harris Temptation´s revue will be at Prestatyn. It´s the same guy who was in Impact.

He did the falsetto lead in the Temptations for about five years, singing on for instance "Papa Was A Rolling Stone". Then he went on to record a solo album, including the well-received disco tune "My Music" and he has also done session work singing behind artists such as Rose Royce...
