Guest Modracer Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Just been digging out my old vinyl while clearing out the garage and came across this 7" 1976 promo copy of Skip Mahoney and the Casual's "Running away from Love." I can't for the life of me remembering buying this record as I'm more in classic 60s soul & R&B, but just wondering how much do these go for? Any help would be much apprecaited. Thanks Tim
Sean Hampsey Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 £3 when I bought it and broke it at Cleethorpes, early 80's. No idea today, but I'd guess around £15 - £20. Then again, most of my top choons of the day can still be had for not much more than a tenner! Sean

Sean Thank Sean. the funny thing is I don't even know what it sounds likes as I haven't had a record player in years. What sort of category would you class it as, 70s soul, funk?
pikeys dog Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 £3 when i bought it in the mid 90s... Probably only a fiver now.
Steve G Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 £3 when i bought it in the mid 90s... Probably only a fiver now. Yeah I'd agree quite a big hit for them.

Blake Hi Blake, It was called "Overnight Express" but I called it "Send Your Love Back To Me"... which I always felt was a better title! Always thought he had a really great voice, Skip. Hope you're well mate. Getting really excited about Essence! Look forward to catching up with you there. Sean
Guest andyrattigan Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Picked up the "12 from Manship for £15 great sax break and killer vocals. Superb record. Cheap as chips but what quality.
Guest Modracer Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 And you can hear a sound file of the track here:- https://cdbaby.com/cd/smahoney2 Thanks for the sound file Sean.
Dave Thorley Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 Think it's their best dance tune, better than that 'Janice' thing, but their ballads are best.
Blake H Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 Hi Blake, It was called "Overnight Express" but I called it "Send Your Love Back To Me"... which I always felt was a better title!
