  1. Nothing wrong with 'Ghost in my House' IMO, tis a great tune (as is 'Apples Peaches etc'). what is wrong is the last few times i have heard i TAGIMH out (about 4 in the last 10 years) is that no one claps to it, where you're supposed to clap! A few months ago i was asked for 'All Over The World' which made me cringe. not cos its a bad record, its just not 'me' - it just somehow made me cringe. its a floor packer - but that doesn't mean i am going to go and buy it or play it - unlike some, who i am sure who will play a tune whether they (the DJ) like it or not. strangest one was when i was DJing and a non-soulie (how the hell, a non soulie got into the venue i don't know - outrageous lol) asked for '3 gays at the bar' (or whatever the hit tune was called) and after scanning the bar area i realised that it was a request, and not a statement. 'no, i haven't' i said to him, 'but ask the next DJ, he's bound to have it'
  2. simon, it came into vogue about 4 or 5 years ago; since its been about a grand, there aren't too many copies otherwise they would have surfaced by now at that price (saying that i know someone with two copies who only paid £15 each many years ago). think the last one i saw was £1,200.
  3. Bit like a northern do then
  4. thats my one bit of soul trivia gone out the window lol
  5. both stamps say "ARP", though one is a lot bolder that the other and almost unreadable. pressumabley means something liek Abner Record Productions - as a wild guess.
  6. Good! the more copies the better IMO!
  7. william powell 3 i think, no more - Mick, Carl F and Tim
  8. hear what you are saying marc. but i dont think he has it.
  9. well Arthur would be four for sure then - sure if butch had it he would play it...???
  10. i am sure ($ not $), though could be wrong!!, it went for that much cos i remember saying at the time it would beat the most expensive NS record on ebay
  11. tis a great record, Chris, well done mate
  12. i think the last FB on Gamble i saw was £300 ish - and i was supprised to be honest
  13. Yep, must have been 5 odd years ago Marc, i think it went for $7k-ish on ebay?
  14. hi Marc - i didnt know of a fourth+ (heard the rumour though lol) - Sam, Mick and Mark Speakman - do you know who got the 4th or even 5th?
  15. i don't think the perfections is that rare, or that pricey to be honest titch.
  16. 3 'known' now gene - but not bought for the same price as the last DG, and if mello souls came for sale, gawd knows what that would fetch
  17. £20 ish
  18. this is my "You Succeded" obviously different label - apart from the really rare green sticker on it; is this east coast - or another issue? (just played it again, and what a tune!
  19. absolutely agree Pat
  20. sandra richardson, dare i say a bit of a classic? well i said it any way. it is very good, i got the orange one and sort of burgandy too - it came out on green too, which i think must be the hardest of them. coat in hand....
  21. Really??? Not that its not a top tune - cos it is - But that much £ ??
  22. imo - its a great NS record
  23. i'd have said ray merrell too, by quite a way, including a good £100 more lol. i think the ray merrell was withdrawn, hence the rarity...
  24. Hi Kristian i got a spare ex cond (small label mark on label) £42 inc normal postage, payment via paypal. PM me if ya want it . cheers
  25. Paul, you told me that's the best record that you own so go ahead... and i told you a few days ago that you've got no taste
