Dave Pinch Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 i would have thought there must be 100+ in collections up and down the country altho it must be a four figure record by now. I nearly swopped a fascinators on bombay for it some years ago but got cold feet at the last minute. nearest i came to owning one. at least i still have the fascinators dave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sean Hampsey Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Any other toons use this backing track? No, but The Stairsteps "I'm The One Who Loves You" comes pretty close as a 'soundalike'. An awesome tune... for around 1% of the cost! Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean Hampsey Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Impressions 'Im the one who loves you' ABC / Uk HMV Yes, same song, as is the Major Lance version "I'm The One". Great tune! Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dazz Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I always assumed there were fewer than that as it doesn't come up for sale much and I rarely see it on playlists... tho perhaps I'm just not in the loop. I recently aquired a copy of this and I struggled to get it, mine was well into 4 figures. Only ever seen 4 go through Ebay in last 7 years. I would have thought that "100 copies in collections up and down the country was more like 10 copies". Good luck with your quest though because IMHO this record is the dogs and well worth the 4 year chase to get it. In fact I would say this is my favorite record of all time Dazz Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest noss Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Yes, same song, as is the Major Lance version "I'm The One". Great tune! Sean ....and Jerry Butler of course... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Garethx Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 The Arcades on Triad uses the exact same backing track as the Jessie James (which are both heavily indebted to Jerry Butler's I'm The One Who Loves You as mentioned above). Both great records, but my preference has long been for JJ: I love his voice and he turns in a great performance on this. In terms of quantities of Jessie James on Shirley around I would estimate a couple of dozen copies worldwide. Always been rare, and I believe it's the last release on the Shirley label.

Dave Pinch Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 dont forget this record has been around a long time and im not disputing the quality of it. it just shades the arcades for me. only 4 on ebay that popsike has picked up but popsike dont pick everything up. all the top dealers have auctioned a copy in recent years since auctioning rare records became the norm. but what about all the years b4 that. ive seen at least 10 copies meself and i dont see bugger all compared to some. think i may have been a bit extreme with 100. but 10. your having a laugh I still think i made a good move keeping the fascinators. every body i talked to said i was insane if i went ahead with the deal dave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

It's a Bay Area production, a man call Mr. Badger (first name eludes me but it's not Perk) a local car salesman used to put up the money for many of Jesse's releases, as he did with this one. It was distributed on the West Coast by Atlantic making it more than just an obscure local press. I've possibly had 6 or so in the last 15 years. Before that I did have a small quanity found in San Jose, maybe 20-ish have been through our hands at one time or another. There's maybe a 50+ but in a collecting scene of 30 to 40,000 participants that's damn rare! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
