Simsy Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 (edited) And more of the same,£50 Used to go for three figures not so long back, but does seem to have come down in price last couple of years. Tom Jones version is good, but the original's still the greatest! Edited April 7, 2008 by Ian Sims

paultp Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 (edited) Used to go for three figures not so long back, but does seem to have come down in price last couple of years. There were loads of them on ebay a couple of years ago, went for around 50-60 dollars every time. I'm with the Tom Jones fans, kept that but sold on every BEK I've had. Edited April 8, 2008 by paultp

Guest Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Tom Jones version wasn't issued as a single was it? Was too!!mini LP Pikey`s dog owns...........well a 7" should count,shouldnt it!!
Guest Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Sorry lads Ben E King has it for me ! I myself would call it a draw wanna`hear the other version tho`Roddy lad.
Simsy Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Was too!!mini LP Pikey`s dog owns...........well a 7" should count,shouldnt it!! So that's er .. an EP? Sorry lads Ben E King has it for me ! Ah Rodd, at last some soulful sense!
Kevinkent Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 The Tom Jones version is on an LP which I've seen go for £3.50 on ebay recently. It's also on a 6 track Parrot EP - so I take it that's a 12" EP? -Kev.
Sunnysoul Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Ben E King rarest form is on a beaut Green & White Aussie Atlantic issue !!! Expect to pay a minimum 75 quid for one of these .... if you can find one for sale that is ...
Tim Smithers Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Ben E King rarest form is on a beaut Green & White Aussie Atlantic issue !!! Expect to pay a minimum 75 quid for one of these .... if you can find one for sale that is ... I would think the white demo is pretty close to that, me thinks!

Pete S Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Ben E King rarest form is on a beaut Green & White Aussie Atlantic issue !!! Expect to pay a minimum 75 quid for one of these .... if you can find one for sale that is ... I found one at Tunbridge Wells record fair in the late 80's - sold it for £30, which was a lot of money for something pretty unknown at the time....soon regretted it. Anyway I think you'll find the rarest form is actually the UK Atlantic demo - blank yellow demo labels with handwritten titles - 3 known copies
Simsy Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 No 7" six tracker plays at 33 tho`. Still sounding a lot like an EP our Ken! https://www.raresoulman.co.uk/d/90741/SPEAKER%2C+JOHN Ooh that's a bit whiffy!
Guest Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 (edited) Still sounding a lot like an EP our Ken! Ooh that's a bit whiffy! It`ll fit in a play box tho`Simhead old boy. and they are called mini-lps Whiffy i think the iffy recording dont help,sounds like its being sent from outa`space. Edited April 8, 2008 by ken
pikeys dog Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 It`ll fit in a play box tho`Simhead old boy. and they are called mini-lps Ken, I've turned a spare up - sleevless though. Got owt nice to swap for it?
Guest Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Ken, I've turned a spare up - sleevless though. Got owt nice to swap for it? Will sort something Pikey,just dont know what at the mo`
Kevinkent Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 No 7" six tracker plays at 33 tho`. Thanks Ken. Like you say - it'll fit in the box. Just gotta find out if the Mexican 4 track EP is 45rpm now - just to make things easy 'cos I know I'm gonna forget to switch speed. -Kev
Kevinkent Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 hi peeps mines on a white ATLANTIC issue (jamaican) .JOE Joe, I take it you're talking 'bout a Ben E. King version? The 6 track EP is Tom Jones. -Kev.
Guest SteveSnow Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Thanks Ken. Like you say - it'll fit in the box. Just gotta find out if the Mexican 4 track EP is 45rpm now - just to make things easy 'cos I know I'm gonna forget to switch speed. -Kev Hi Kev - it is 45rpm. Steve
Kevinkent Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Hi Kev - it is 45rpm. Steve Cheers Steve, "Lo Puedo Romper Lo Nuevo De Mi" it is then! -Kev.
Codfromderby Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 this is I Can't Break the News on a Mexican 4 track EP! Same cover as the UK LP I think? Steve has it got "i get carried away" on it cause thats on the lp and its ace, also "cant break the news" by paul jones ? heard it once, its crap !
Kevinkent Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 (edited) has it got "i get carried away" on it cause thats on the lp and its ace, The 33rpm 6 track EP on Parrot has this, but not the 45rpm 4 track EP. Can't say I've heard it. Still trying to come to terms with the possibility of playing any Tom Jones track really . They sound the business but somehow just don't sit right with me. It's a personal thing. -Kev Edited April 9, 2008 by KevinKent
