Right Then... pay attention now!! Last one to fill in the blanks is a big girls blouse: ARTIST: LABEL: TITLES: a) Approximate Purchase Price: £ Location of available copy at only a fraction of your last answer: C'mon then you lot.... don't dither I wondered last night, when Mr Dyson played this - he 'plonked' a loose 'paper' label over the top (once on the decks and only after assuring himself he was cueing the correct side) which I promptly 'blew' off from a distance of three or four paces! If Only I'd remembered to take me 'spinning' head with me... I might of been able to catch site of all details - not just the label name!!!!! Ah well... last in the queue yet again A 'Little Jerry' c/upless Fingers

WOW! To even just sit & listen to a tune the magnitude of this one would leave most feeling very satisfied, & privelaged, to be party to a vocal display from such an awesome talent, and true Master of Delivery - never mind being able to WATCH him perform it as well!! Ain't that just the DB's.... smothered in chocolate! Thanx very much for sharing that with us

Poor little bugger's gonna miss out on the chicken gravy though.... My kid's already seen to that!

You bin in my record boxes!!!???!!! Obviously a man who not only likes early 'cross-over', but likes 'CLASS' early cross-over! Valentinos... bought ten counts of both this and the Flamingo's track in the early 90's, @ $3 each. If you have a cd of your stuff I'd be a very grateful & appreciative recipient. I would happily reciprocate with a batch of my own, like-minded, ditties. New York labels must be a particular fave of yours perhaps? Certainly the talents of the likes of Roy Hamilton, Tony Middleton, & Chuck Jackson must, surely, favour high in your list of preferred artists? Do you, too, feel a CD swap comin' on...? are you suddenly finding that, almost uncontrollably, you're getting drawn ever nearer to the turntable and little boxes of 'tricks'?

Blimey! Ken, you are always full of suprises... Are they all from that box I saw you with - stuffed up your jumper... you know! them where you quickly dismissed my enquiry with a 'Nay lad... it's only a bunch of Nursery Rhyme singles I picked up as a job lot at a RNIB car boot sale yesterday!' followed up with 'Thought I'd stick them all individually on ebay and watch all them Supernanny wannabees fall over themselves in their quest to secure their discovery of the 'next big thing' in child minding (I can hear all the little brains whirring now, saying... how comes nobody thought of this before - I better get in there quick before everyone discovers this amazing, new, fail safe way of keeping the charges quiet, happy, and content! without having to forcibly drag the little buggers, screaming and kicking, to the naughty corner where I still gotta keep me eyes on 'em, instead of gettin' the important things done! Now... where's that nail polish)' Ever the entrepreneur, eh Ken? Hope that 'oil well' is just a boot sale away for ya! Don't forget your mates now...

Given the level of interest on this it seems best to set a final offer cut-off. Was going to be sunday but, as Lifeline w/ender is on and some interested parties will be there, it seems more appropriate to say final offers by 9pm this Monday 4 Feb. Thanx for all those who have enquired - must say I'm a bit suprised it's generated as many enquiries!?! Doesn't have to be best ££ offer - would welcome appropriate trade or part & part offers too. Fingers

Wot... neither of 'em!!??!! Wot about you lot... the other 28 that's downloaded it thus far - same probs?

Okay - refosoul clip not working!! Have to do it the old fashioned way then... Survivors__Valli_.mp3

My Missus got hers for a £200 trade (cost her nowt!) & 200 cash... Me!! Still never 'ad one

Offers via pm please. Ex copy Trade considered

Copy in Ex condition available, any interested parties please pm me with offers Trades welcome

Just played the D Troy - Evie's version is slightly slower in tempo, but would say it's exact same backing track as I couldn't spot a difference, so could possibly be from CP vaults? I slowed my turntable to match the speed of the evie clip, defo different as even the opening lyrics themselves are different! NICE ONE!

So!!!! YOU'RE THE ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...that bought his cd's Didn't realise u wuz such a big fan..

Take it you don't like it then Tony.....?

No... they wouldn't really, would they! Obviously left me brain at middleton t'other night! Soooooooooooo then.... the upshot being it's another piece from 'The Latrine'???????

With the vocalist having been a (the last surviving?) member of the Salvadors??? Or something along those lines? Certainly can't see any resemblence with the vocals on the 60's carstairs.... pray tell more I'm intrigued

and..............

I forget the topic too, Chalky, suffice to say it wasn't about the Salvadors. (may have been a thread about recent ebay listed 'reissues'?) But it was me that mentioned this particular piece - requesting info... but it didn't really get too far

Right then.... Wot about this!!??!! Unknown__Stick_By_Me_Baby_.mp3 Unknown__Stick_By_Me_Baby_.mp3

Would some kind person post a soundfile for the Salvadors, please? I know that seems a ridiculous request but it would assist me with something... that's all. And, before you ask.... NO! it ain't to do another boot (alhough i do quite fancy a greeny torquoisey bluey grey... with just a hint of magenta maybe?)

This is the label Steve is enquiring about... inclined to agree with your thoughts of it being an only release - question mark, though, hangs over the number of the Luther disc #018 for 'She'll Stick..' ( the flip being 017). Would tend to lead to being more output if you follow the logic of sequence!?! But couldn't find any further info than that

OH YES!!! That's why he is my 'NUMERO UNO'!! WOT A VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And soooooooooooo effortless! Such a severe travesty of justice in the utmost sense - and a tragic and sad, sad loss to the entire universe when he was taken so early in his life!

Have to agree almost entirely 100% Just, on the rarity/price equation. Whilst something perhaps doesn't deserve a price just 'cos it is 'rare' say, for example a well preserved prehistoric turd... the fact alone it is deemed 'rare' would see some people want to own it! When it comes to our beloved records though you are, in my view, entirely correct although, even there, I have had discs that are absolute crap and, although having seen turntable action somewhere, were by no means in-demand... but still fetched decent three figure sums when sold based on rarity value alone!

May be wrong, and dreaming... but thought I saw Pete French with a copy for sale!!??!! I'll ring and ask him tomorrow - if I did it tonight I'd never get him off again!! Will post with the result tomorrow.. worth asking anyway

And that's fair comment! Appreciate you taking the time to respond further - and is the reason I made an apology in advance. The main problem I experience with 'the written word' is the fact it's left to the individuals own interpretation, and because there are no pre-determined 'accents', for example - as you would get with speach, I appreciate (as you obviously do also) that with the best will in the world how people read something is not necessarily the way the author has intended it (hope this makes sense!). I take an age in compiling some of my postings to try and reduce the risk of this happening - but obviously I didn't do a good job! But will also try to be polite and 'neutral' if I feel a return comment is necessary to respond to (if only to reinforce any point that has appeared unclear), & I hope that was reflected to you. I avoid pub do's because of the same problems you mentioned - but will also say that, some of the best nights I've ever had have been where attendance has been p**s poor! So... when's you're next one? Need a DJ? Fingers
