Sorry, you're wrong. It's not the take issued as by Johnny Moffett on Canterbury. It's the version issued as by John Westley on Corsair. Slightly different take despite being the very same artist.

Yep, that's the one. Have you thought about selling your copy? I still want one... :)

Benji, theres a minter at my place for you...maybe...haven`t played that for some years now so feel free to make me an offer.

what the going rate for John Westley and anyone got soundfile?

I would guess about £75 / £100 chalky, it's not like it's indemand (well apart from Benji wants one rolleyes.gif ) but it is harder to find than the Johnny Moffett.

The Johnny Moffett version about £30 / £40.

I think you`ll find its much much more than 75/100 UKP. The last time I remember seeing it was when it was reviewed in Rare Soul Review six/seven years ago and without having said publication at hands from my memory it was something like 200 UKP plus.. Not saying so because I am selling one, as I don´t have to sell it and will be happy to keep it.

how different are the two releases? The one I posted initially doesn't sound too far from the sound clip of JM on John Manships site?

The difference is the missing girls backing on the Canterburry release.

Yes, but it's not very good, is it ? I've only kept mine because I collect west coast labels, especially yellow ones :lol: Always wanted to find a use for this emticon, knew it would come in handy one day.

Oh, I think its quite catchy actually. I digged out said magazine and its in # 1, being reviewed for the flipside being an extremely rare and semi-known R&B track with a price tag of 300 UKP already seven years ago.

TB believes that John Wesley/John Westley/Johnny Moffett are one and the same person...closer inspection of the 45 revealed that both sides are written by Moffet/Wesley....so if John W. was not looking to earn a doubled income from his writing they hardly can be one and the very same person, can they ?

Marc,

John Westley and Johnny Moffett are one and the same. Wesley was Johnny Moffetts middle name.

As with most of TBs valuations I seriously doubt the 300 quid price tag. A record is only worth what someone pays for it, not what someone wants for it. Can't find it now but there was a copy on Ebay either end of last or beginning of this year and it either didn't sell or went rather cheap. Does anybody else remember that?

I don't want a copy because I think it's an excellent track (infact I think it's rather mediocre) but for nostalgic reasons. So if anybody wants to sell me a copy I offer 200 quid. (will put that in Wants section as well)
