Dean Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 (edited) Just watched an "Excellent" Piece of the Action LP go through on ebay, finished at $70.98 (£41.43), from Portugal. Raised a few of questions in my head: Was this a bit of a bargain? For OVO enthusiasts is this the way to play "Lend a Hand" out (seem to hear it out more than I see 12" being flashed!)? Are any other tracks from this played out by anyone? Apologies in advance if this is common knowledge, I've got some pretty big gaps in my knowledge.

Dean Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 For OVO enthusiasts is this the way to play "Lend a Hand" out (seem to hear it out more than I see 12" being flashed!)? Just an added thought regarding the Original Vinyl Only, I know about the abc UK re-issue with Willie Hutch - Loves Runs Out (prob still one of my all-time top 20), but I wouldn't play Willie Hutch out on that, so somehow doesn't feel right to play Lend a Hand on it, even tho it's a legit issue. It's a snobbery thing. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

If it eases your conscience, I'll give you £30 for it, you can give £20 to Oxfam and you're 300% up on the deal - everyones a winner Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Lloydee Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Are any other tracks from this played out by anyone? Unfortunately not, well nice tracks but nothing on the same level as Lend A Hand, still a great LP to have in the collection tho Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest mel brat Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 "Lend A Hand" is such a solid gold classic, you just gotta have it in the original album format aint'cha? As an aside, are there more demo copies of this album around than black issues? Just wondered. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Nice album, but LAH is a killer tune. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Had both, kept the demo, thought it looked nicer Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I've always thought the 45 mix is a little different from the album cut, anyone agree, and are all the 45s from the original ABC press run? mmmm' ABC w/d albums Nolan Porter, Natural Four, Ruby Andrews, Lamont , Laurence Hilton Jacobs...............nice to hear...... nicer to have!

Yes I received a black issue copy from Soul Bowl. I was a little disappointed at the time, as I'd have preferred a demo copy back then(!), but now I'm not so sure...
