There's a tune by Howlin' Wolf entitled "How Many More Years" released as Chess 1479 from 1951. Check out the lyrics: How many more years, have I got to let you dog me around How many more years, have I got to let you dog me around I'd soon rather be dead, sleeping six feet in the ground ... I'm going upstairs, I'm gonna bring back down my clothes I'm going upstairs, I'm gonna bring back down my clothes, do them all If anybody ask about me, just tell'em I walked out on Howlin' Wolf later recorded a tune called "You Gonna Wreck My Life" (a.k.a. "No Place To Go") and a couple of alternative takes seems to be around. It was originally issued on Chess 1744 in 1959. Obviously based on "How Many More Years", but with lyrics much closer to Guitar Ray: How many more years, are you gonna wreck my life How many more years, are you gonna wreck my life Well the way you done, you gonna wreck my life. How many times, you gonna treat me like you do How many more times, you gonna treat me like you do You took all of my money, and all of my love too. Now I'm old and gray, got no place to go Now I'm old and gray, got no place to go You got yourself a young stud, and you can't stand me no more. I'm going to the stairs, I'm gonna beg ya for my clothes I'm going to the stairs, I'm gonna beg ya for my clothes For where I go nobody knows.

I have no idea, I've never heard the Wigan's Chosen Few version. This might be the original US Roulette version by The Chosen Few. Can someone stick up some audio of both the released version of Wigan's Chosen Few and the original US Roulette version. I'll stick up some audio of my acetate tomorrow or so as I'm headin out the door right now.

Found this a couple of days ago and just thought I'd share it...

Apart from the text colour being wrong on the bootleg in this particular case, I think it's easy to spot most styrene pressings by only seeing a label scan where the edge of the label is clearly visible.

That's the styrene bootleg / second issue.

That Saxie Russell tune sure is an absolute monster. One of my all time faves as well!

I've put together two MP3-mixes featuring tracks from my current auctions for those of you who don't have the time to dig through all of the eBay listings. And even for those of you who aren't interested in buying anything it should make for about 35 and 15 minutes (respectively) of nice listening.

Let me know if you still need MAGNUM 706. My copy is EX+ and very close to M-. Probably only ever played 5-10 times. In my experience it's not a common 45 at all.

I'd say go with US-type 12" mailers and pack them TIGHT with bubble-wrap.

They are a real pain to send, especially if they're made out of shellac. But I've sold a couple on eBay and I've sent them out well packaged in US-type 12" mailers with lots of cardboard and bubble-wrap padding. All of them arrived in nice shape except this one: :angry: So I refunded the buyer. But what I'm saying is: pack them properly with lots of bubble-wrap type stuff and what-have-you. But in my experience no matter how well you pack them, those shellac 78s are some damn fragile records...

I really like the underlined ones below: VOLT 4029 - Dramatics - Your Love Was Strange / Since I've Been In Love VOLT 4039 - Jones & Blumenberg - I Forgot To Remember / The Right Track VOLT 4069 - Major Lance - Girl, Come On Home / Since I Lost My Baby's Love VOLT 4077 - Emotions - My Honey And Me / Blind Alley VOLT 4087 - Inez Foxx - You Hurt Me For The Last Time / Watch The Dog VOLT 4096 - Inez Foxx - Crossing Over The Bridge / You're Saving Me For A Rainy Day

Soundclip anyone?

Demand is obviously slim apart from Weeping Willows collectors I guess... But I'd like £15-£20 cash/trade or something like that.

Click "edit" on the first post in this thread, then "full edit". You can then add or change words in the title line.

The second link doesn't work.

Thanks Matt! Have updated the discography.

Any chance of a scan of the vinyl copy?

These auctions ends in about 4-5 hours. Thanks for looking!

OK. Here's a picture of Ray from a recent Kent CD (but they might ofcourse also be wrong):

Are you saying that he did the lead vocals for The Street People? I doubt that, and he isn't featured in the pictures on the Street People LP.
