Guest LambrettaBob Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 Hello everyone. I've got a standard copy (no white demo) of "Dennis Edwards - Johnnie on the spot/I didn't have to" on International Soulsville, and someone told me it might be worth a few pounds? I've seen the demo go for loads of money on ebay, but this one can't possibly be worth that much... so my question is: does anybody know the approx value of this gem??? cheers /Bob
Simsy Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 About £4k+ for a nice one I reckon Bob .. Welcome to Soul Source btw, could I ask you to post a hi in the intro section please.
Simon T Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 It was bootlegged on both the white demo & the black issue. I think you tell the difference buy the matix stamp that is only on the originals.

Richard Posted October 8, 2007 Posted October 8, 2007 on the run out groove it may have a number either scratched or stamped there
Guest LambrettaBob Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 on the run out groove it may have a number either scratched or stamped there ok, thanks. the run out groove does have a number in it.. and the number is scratched.

Raresoul45s Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 The original has the matrix numbers stamped in with a wide but very small H or I depending on what way you look at it. Stamped in there is also a symbol that looks like a hat stamped in both sides. Hope this helps

Hope this helps thanks a lot for all your help...sad to say my copy seems to be of the bootleg type but it's good to know that I can get answers from people who knows things like this! cheers

An original issue of this record is NOT black, the label is infact a light beige colour and the label title INTERNATIONAL SOULVILLE is in red - also very, very rare I know of only 2 copies in the country unless anyone else knows otherwise. I would rate the commoner demo's at £2000 ish (see popsike website) add on perhaps a £1000 for an issue.

Steve G Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 Am I the only person that thinks the B side is ten times better?
Guest Adam G Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 Am I the only person that thinks the B side is ten times better? No Steve I agree with you .First heard it when Sam Dropped it at an early soul essence along with stuff like the Locations Mr Diamond man. The other side pales incomparison

Sean Hampsey Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 No Steve I agree with you .First heard it when Sam Dropped it at an early soul essence along with stuff like the Locations Mr Diamond man. The other side pales incomparison Yes.. "I Didn't Have To" is a helluva better tune Adam. That said.... it's not exactly his best 45 is it? (Although it is better than the crumby Locations). Hope you're well mate. Sean

Or you been on the wine again. John
Guest Stuart T Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 Am I the only person that thinks the B side is ten times better? Can't stand JOS but have the bootleg for the flip
Raresoul45s Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 I agree the flip is better. What about His version of I Like Every Thing About You, pure genius somtimes credited to the contours unissued. I will spin both these tunes next week in Yate(20 OCT). Will be posting details and recent playlists in events talk over the weekend.

So that's five of us that prefer the flip side - thank goodness for that!
