Think I've had them both Chris - one with silver the other with gold text? I may be mixing it up with something else though.

Just been told that there were two pressings in the 80's so that clears that up.

Matrix details are exactly the same from what I can see. Would this not indicate they'd been pressed with the same plates and as such more than likely be original pressings? Just the blotchiness of the text, the difference of the centre dink and the thickness of the vinyl which made me wonder about them. The edge of the vinly is flat on the one I just got and sharp on the copy I've had for years, also. I'll see what he says when he replies

Not sure on that one. I just compared the vinyl of I Wanna Get Into you with a couple of other West Coast 80's things - William Bostic, Khaliq - and the centre dink looks the same, so maybe the text bleed is just a strange quirk. The copies they're ebaying at the moment look more obviously 'old' and not like the one I got so maybe there were two pressing runs on it https://cgi.ebay.com/Rare-Modern-Soul-7-J-D...1QQcmdZViewItem

Just got a copy of the record from the site. Got to say, comparing it with the copy I've had for 6-7 years it looks distinctly different but in a subtle way if that's not too much of a contradiction. The labels are a different quality, the centre dink is different, the one I just got is thicker vinyl and the text has a kind of 'fraying' around the edges that looks scanned rather than set. The run-out is exactly the same and vinyl has a run-in 'ridge' the same as my 'old' copy, so it's confusing. I've asked him if the copies on his site are recent pressings from the original plates - not had a reply yet and I'm not syaing these ARE new pressings but there's something sort of odd about them, mainly in the quality of the text. I could post scans of both copies as comparison but not sure the difference would really come across. Of course there could have been two issues at the time and these were maybe a second pressing run, would maybe explain the difference. I've uploaded them anyway - just not sure about them at the moment (scans don't really illustrate the issue about the text, though it does show it thicker on the right image than the left) Taking it to really nerdy levels both copies have a small indented circle on the label...on the 'old' copy at the top, on the 'new' one on the bottom so it's a weird one. Just that next to each (hand in hand) other one looks old and the other not so

Got a Ex copy of Drake/Ensolids at £75 (plays mint)

Not sure if this is the same person back again - something not quite right here. He's yet to answer the standard 'what's in the run-out grooves' question which kind of almost ensures they actually have the record. All the pics seem to have been sourced from other auctions. That and the fact that it just looks suspect, well... https://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZtherecordsformeQQhtZ-1

Not now the picture has changed. Previously (when I first posted it up) there was just one photo of the record, you could see the grooves and what looked the like the results of a small child having skated across the playing surface for a few hours. The guy has since changed the images. It may of course, play bob on...just looked minced. Just found the original in my temp files

Seems to have changed the picture and dropped the start price by $200 too 100% feedback butnot sure how many for records sold.

https://cgi.ebay.com/THE-CASHMERES-SHOW-STO...1QQcmdZViewItem Ex? $3,700? Can usually rely on US grading being pretty conservative...not sure about this one

/index.php?showtopic=50190 might still have it

Think trouble had a Gaspard a while back

I'll swap my Wyndchymes for the Ice - deal?

One here (Sayles) /index.php?showtopic=50419

Limitations spot on I'd say.

There was a guy on the funk board after the Pal Rames - posted a couple of wants for it infact. I told him a couple of times that you had one - I guess he's either got it or never saw the post https://www.fryer-mantis.co.uk/modules.php?...p;p=62711#62711 You might want to PM him or something to let him know Cracking record btw. I'd have it if I didn't have it

...new list on the site now - www.witchsbrew.co.uk

Thought that was a recent pressing/boot Keith.

here's it is

Easier option is to save the excel file as a text file, then open it up in notepad and copy and paste it in here if that helps. Make it more readable

Not that I'm an expert or anything but the track is tagged as Baby What Song (Do You want) and after googling and comparing it to Larry Santos it could be Larry Santos off what looks like the album 'Just A Man' (as listed on dave Rimmer's site) though I've never heard the album. Which going by the clip is a blessing .

The 7" is on Reflection too.

That copy looks (and sounds) suspiciously like the copy I sold about 5-6 years ago. Didn't get that kind of wedge for it, though. Not another 8th Ave Express unfortunately.
