Guest martinsbox Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Hi, just got a few 45's in : - 3 off someones wants and some a few for myself. Marv Johnson "Unbreakable love" U.A. issue. Billy Tircuit "I confess" Bonatemp issue. Jimmy Beaumont "Never say goodbye" May d.j. The above are I suppose what you call 'Popcorn'? Some nice tunes, and I admit I had never heard of them before. Most important I get prices on these as I've guessed a price of 175 lb. The 70's 45's listed below are for myself . . . perhaps P.S. could help with these as I understand he's a great 70's to Y2000 fan Otis Leavill "Why why why" Dakar d.j. The Millionaires "It ain't no achievement" Specialty Merry Clayton "One more ride" Ode d.j. The Main Ingredient "Looks like rain" R.C.A. Martin p.s. the Otis Leavill reminds me of a tune played in 1978!!! I just can't think what though. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Paul McKay Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Might that be the Mill Evans version on King? Paul SITC link Thanks Paul, Mill Evans is the one . . . played by either Ginger or John Vincent! Having not heard the Mill Evans version for a few years, this sounds a little bit more apt for todays venues . . . probably! What was it covered as though?? As for The Main Ingredient, worth every penny a great sounding 45!!! Martin link Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 (edited) LEAVILL, OTIS DAKAR 617 DJ GLAD I MET YOU / WHY, WHY, WHYÂ £75 Shifty, £40 Joe Dunlop Both those prices are over the top. It should be £15-£25. Edited March 31, 2005 by Sebastian Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Both those prices are over the top. It should be £15-£25. link Me again... £10-£15 seems to be an appropriate "value" for Otis Leavill. This just sold on eBay, vinyl copy, properly listed, with label scan etc.: https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=4713619601 Anyone paying £40-£75 for this 45 must be very, very, very impatient.

Paul McKay Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I agree Seb, but that was an issue not a demo @ £11.50. Paul SITC Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest martinsbox Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 So that's agreed then, perhaps?? : - Otis Leavill - Why, why, why. Dakar d.j. @ £15 - £17.50 The Main Ingredient - Looks like rain. RCA @ £10 - £25 That just leaves :- Merry Clayton - One more ride. Ode d.j. The Millionaires - It ain't no achievement. Specialty & the three for a bloke I don't want to ask too much from!! Marv Johnson - Unbreakable love. UA Billy Tircuit - I confess. Bonatemp Jimmy Beaumont - Never say goodbye. May d.j. Perhaps another thread here? Who and What defines the price/value of a 'northern soul' 45? Is it:- (a) What a dealer prices it at. ( What it is advertised for. © What you manage to get the record for, remembering that there is always that element of bargaining. (d) What you as a person judge it to be worth. Another thing that has always got me!!! Who is usually the first person to put a price on a rare/unavailable/indemand 45? I suppose like most 45's (legit, not acetates) they are known to a few who own some of the more unheard/unplayed tunes - commonly known in the past as 'Tape swappers'. To them all 45's have a certain value from the inset, probably judged in their knowledge of simular tunes, be they 60's, 70's, 80's etc. and the availability to the set few who know of them prior to it, or them emerging from the speakers. Once played at a major nighter or by a 'BIG' dj, who then adjusts the price, and they certainly do get adjusted . . . big time! e.g. Rhonda Davis £25 for quite a while then overnight to £150!! Once priced by ONE person somewhere in darkest U.K. at what rate of "£'s per hour" does this price travel and when does everyone agree this is the going rate for that tune? It's a hard, hard life. Martin p.s. does the Otis Leavill track also sound just a little like Ray & Dave's 'Wrong, wrong, wrong' or am I wrong? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
