Prophonics 2029 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 Its a late one for him 1970, never seen one for sale.
John Parker Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 Any one got one for sale...? For that matter can anyone remember seeing one for sale over the past few years Seen most other things
Garethx Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 As others have pointed out this record has remained decidedly rare.
Prophonics 2029 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 (edited) As others have pointed out this record has remained decidedly rare. A common fact that most of Bobby's records are rarities. Edited February 14, 2008 by Prophonics 2029

jocko Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Cmon boys, you can't be serious saying this is no good, a bit off the wall but a great record, mean and moody dance record. One of the ones that started me on the route of looking for something different back in the day. Great out loud over a system. This and the thing on Phil LA (Over and Over) were to me the two greatest things underplayed at beginning of 80's, hope Bobby Adams is still to have it's day although the rarity may be against that.

Agree Jock, Someone played it at Lifeline t'other week (don't know who) and it sounded triffic after all those years! Bloody right record (IMO)! Sean

jocko Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 ==== aint saying its no good but just a difficult tempo to dance to....defo a good record but not a GREAT one... only imo of course.. No thats a fair comment Mark, since I just stumble side to side on dance floor, I can dance to those tricky records Re the good and great comment I think its one of those that since its been so rarely played its difficult to judge that, but again not an unfair comment Glad to see its having its day though!

Guest Matt Male Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 I don't think it's a difficult dancer. Nice and gritty, especially Bobby's tough guy vocal. A great record imo and i'd like to hear it out again. Just got this vision now of people drunkenly stumbling around to it
Guest Buey Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Its a late one for him 1970, never seen one for sale. Sam had his for sale in 1997 if thats any help - for about 400 if memory serves B

Chalky Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Agree Jock, Someone played it at Lifeline t'other week (don't know who) and it sounded triffic after all those years! Bloody right record (IMO)! SeanT'was Kitch who played it. Guy used to spin this mid 80's as well.
Guest Leigh J Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Not everyones cup of tea , You Get Next To Me Baby on Pilma is pretty awsome too

Evening Jock Colin (Kung Fu Slipper ) Law revived TTKMIA in the Shotts days to packed floors if memory serves but due for more exposure. I think it was Kitch who played it at Lifeline wasn't it? ah..edit.. just seen Chalky's post Edited February 15, 2008 by Byrney
Marc Forrest Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 I have him on Pilma, Purdy and Battle after a quick look. One of my fave male artists, I also have him on Colpix, Bo-Ad (obviously his own label), Tra-X of course. I am sure more labels but can`t remember from the top of my head right now. He used to work as a security / bodyguard eighties and nineties, don`t know if still active though. Among his clients used to be the major from LA at one point if again I remember correctly. And yes, Betty Lou was his wife in the later days. I tried to contact him when he was with Lionel Richie as the chief of his bodyguards over here in Berlin but sadly couldn`t get thru...would have been nice to chat with this man I am sure...
