Ahaar,
Why be this so strange? - I'll wager many folks on here have records that be one'offs, acetates and raritees, without 'em being self-professed 'foremost Motown Collectors'.
Sound's like a 'Dog In The Manger' mentality to this ole Sea Dog.
Bye the bye, John Pugh be a respected collector by this brigand, as I've heard many a fine ditty from his treasure trove.
Yarr.
