Babies is a cheapy £10 or so, Brenda Lee Jones I'd guess £50-75

I believe this was covered up years ago as 'Anne Perry - Stay away boys'. Miami based Deep City label. Doubt if it's been booted. Probably £80 ++......Oh and a great tune!!!

Styrene - brittle plastic with a label that you could peel off: vinyl - more flexible and you could not remove the label however hard you try. Also, on certain records you'll find something called a delta number - this is a triangle symbol followed by a 5 or 6 digit number. It's a way of dating records. The higher the number, the newer the record, so your Illusions probably carries a number beginning 100** in the run off meaning it was pressed in 1977. Whereas an original Brenda Lee Jones on Rust would have a number beginning say 66***. The Barbara English one sided is a boot, as are The Ellusions, Del Larks, Tomangoes 99% probabability, Ann Perry if it's pale green.

The Barbara English one sided is a boot.

Agree, the original has "Standing On Tip Toe" on the flip side.

Cheers Pete - Tomangoes didn't snap on me and has a triangle shape followed by no:99524 as well as WM 3125 ST 372 932-1 Side #1. Oh and Ann Perry is the same light green as the tiles in my kitchen. All I can see on the Brenda Lee Jones though is IK4M5435 - - Take it that's bad

That makes the Brenda Lee Jones a RCA pressing from 79(???????)

I'll have a look at mine when I get half a chance

Sweeping up, the above are all legit originals (the Brenda should be TK4M 5435), as are the Celestrials and Big Ella pictured.

The only one that may be a bootleg is the Superlatives, but there have been threads about this one...use the search option for more details about the blue and yellow label variants.

Nice one, cheers Flynny - that could've been worse as I had my doubts about The Ellusions track 'cos it only cost me a couple of quid. I've had a look on the Brenda Jones flip and you can clearly see it is a 'T' that side, and The Superlatives is a lightish blue - I'll have a rummage for the thread you mentioned. Would anyone be able to give me prices on these proper ones?

Thx again for your help

Hello again - just had a look at the thread and it seems pukka enough, I've got the same copy as "Debs" with the light blue un-lined label, an 'R' stamp with the line to the right of the number? Good job it's a good tune 'cos this is getting confusing!

Cheers Andy - and here's me thinking I'm gonna get a simple "Yay or Nay" on 'em.

What sort of condition would you people describe these if selling, as they've all been played, have a few inaudible surface scuffs, but all play beautifully? Is that EX? VG? G?

If I do decide to sell them I don't want anyoinie thinking I'm a chancer if I'm way out you know?
