Out of interest, anyone know what the going rate is for the album?

Posted (edited)

With regard to the current JM auction, I've got a question about the Glenda McLeod 45: it states that there are maybe three original copies in existence. It was played in the mid 80s by Dave Thorley, Ian Clark and Stuart Cosgrove, who originally found it on an Echoes-sponsored trip to the Carolinas. At least one of those copies was a 12" on (I think) a light blue version of the HGEI label. Who had the other copies of the red 7" issue? Also, who was behind the issue of the common (bootleg?) copies of the record on opaque vinyl?

Re: Glenda McCloud. Don't think the more common red ones are boots. Think these are second issues, if I am remembering this correctly, she had a dispute with her manager \ produer ?? who went and repressed this up without telling her.

Do the jerk is a million times better than losing controll in my opinion, probably just as rare too...

Think there are more than 5 copies of LC:

Ian C

Tim B

Paul Morrall

Dazz

the copy Manship sold twice

1 on ebay

another on ebay

and I think Hippo

...that's 8 of top of me head, anyone know of any more? :D Can only think of 2 copies off hand of Jerk - Ian's and one that I bid on (and lost - tightwad :thumbsup: ) on ebay.

LC is a very mediocre record methinks, wouldn't get anywhere near the turntable recognition it's recieves if it was only worth £20 :lol:

Do the jerk on the other hand is brill :D

Am I the only one who can't help thinking of Benny Hill when I hear this record (Mary Saxton)? :shades::thumbsup: I also wonder why Tim Brown wrote in his mag that he thought she was black?

You could hear his knackers pound

as he raced across the ground

and the clatter of his tool

as it spun round and round

and he galloped into Market street

he wore no pants or vest

his name was ernie

and he had the biggest Chopper

in the west

I can't find it now but I saw a compilation album from the 70's with her and it had a picture of a white woman on it. Mentioned her as being long time artist of soul, jazz, rock, etc. in Canada. Do you know for sure that she is black? Have you met her or seen a picture? The drawing shown on the album here doesn't seem to be depicting a black person, or does it? I think the record in question is crap, and so is "Take My Heart", regardless of her colour, but still curious.

I found a web site with some pictures from 70's Canada, and one picture shows some people on a stage, one of them is named Mary Saxton, and she is white. Maybe there was another artist by the name Mary Saxton in Canada though.

There's definitely a copy of Mary Saxton - Do The Jerk - up here in sunny Scotland.

Christian I bet if you had it Losin Control and had been playin it out to

packed dancefloors it would be a brilliant uptempo 60,s dancer and with regards to

Take my Heart 1000,s of soulies over the years who have danced to it and requested it, cant be daft wanting to dance to crap... T.M H was that popular

it got booted due to demand from Soulies wanting to play it at home ect

Different Strokes for Different Folks both are great 60,s dancers get yer ears washed out they are full of snow and ice from that freezzin country of yours

:wicked:

odds

its up in sounds

https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.p...md=si&img=3449&

there's a version by fasionettes on a ace cd that got a mention last time this was discussed that seems like worth a listen

as one of her tracks also features on cd , some connection there, sleeve notes say ought maybe?

There's a much better original version from Gary Paxton's tape vaults on "Boy Trouble" by the Fashionettes Ace CD CDCHD 1005. They're a black girl group and it's a finished version.

Cheers

Ady

seen lp recently @ 150/200

yep seen that pic, going by all other stuff read/seen reckon good chance it is her

If I had "Losin Control" I would sell or trade it asap. It is up-tempo and it is 60's and it is a pretty good dancer if you only consider the beat, I don't think it is particularly brilliant though, makes me think of the obligatory chase towards the end of every Benny Hill show. The argument for the other tune is not what I expected from you Ian. Joey Delorenzo was (is?) massively popular and got booted. The same can be said of some of the worst records ever, they were very popular at some point and many still are, does that make them good or somehow prove their quality? It only proves that they have potential mass appeal, which is not necessarily the same thing as having true quality (as in quality given and defined by god and understood only by a select few! :thumbsup: ). Another debate on taste that leads nowhere I guess. Would you put "Losin Control" in your top 50?
