The tonny hymes is a 60s type slow track , I meant the Frederick.hymes was played more in the modern sets when it appeared rather than in the oldies dj sets

Fredrick hymes was said to have been booted but no one has ever come up with a copy for the price of a bootleg. It is a modern version of the same song released by tonny hymes which is a slow version. As said above all came from brooklyn born in the USA. Rumours of a yellow label release also but this was most probably down to a poor quality scan or photo

Wasn't it duke browner who wrote this?

Return it if you are not happy then buy another copy. No point having a record you are not happy with

Wasn't there a date stamp added to the boot to try to add extra provenance?

Wouldn't they press up a few extras anyway in case of breakage / damage when doing a specific number ? just in case a few got dropped / knocked over before the event

Pressed at the same time.from same plates but over the amount requested Unless you know about the secret markings on the official.ones then you will never know. Its not going to be easy to prove it but probably not the first limited edition release to have more than actually stated

They are all in demand under the radar going to go big anytime now when they are selling them When you sell to a dealer they are unpopular / crap / unknown/ failed plays though

There's less and less good dealers out there, now with ebay sellers and cheque book dj buyers prices and conditions are being exagerated It used to be good but 2 from the last 4 purchases I've made have gone back or overgraded

Aka its crap

Selling for a mate so cant reduce / I'm being a greedy **** and chancing my arm at this price.

So it's easier to scratch without hitting the arm ?

UK on pye and lp but not sure if it got a legit us release

It's not bad in the sence of tainted love / what synth style that became popular of him with soft cell It's not a northern night tune but still ok

Ovo is there for the purists and for the old school djs to keep them relevant on the scene and to stop younger people taking the dj spots . Playing oldies means they dont have to buy new records to keep up Vinyl nights are for people who dont care about the history and want to.be djs playing whatever but see them superior to cd / mp3 playing djs but everything is available on a Carver for 20 quid or so so.they dont have to spend a fortune. Mp3 / cds are cheaper / remastered and dont have any background hiss so some say they sound better. It just depends on your view and budget Top 500 on original vinyl = cost of a house On bootleg / reissue vinyl about £5000 / 7500 On CD probably about £1000 / 1500 if you bought them when they came out maybe less if second hand cds On mp3 collection from ebay / etsy / dodgy soul night trader £10 / 20 So it depends on the budget to what format you get the music to play But in the end they are the same songs
