I just listed 200 albums (and two BIN 45s) which can all be seen here. Just a few:

It could have been at some point, but the red copies I have are 100% 60s stock, again, based on the place where I got them.

Having been only 6 years old in 1978, and living in Pittsburgh where my biggest concern in the world was whether or not my neighbor across the street was going to be hit in the chest with roman candles at a Kiss concert (true story), I feel like I'm missing some crucial information here. This is a pretty common 45 and sells for a tenner at best, right? Why would it have ever been bootlegged to begin with? I love the record but what gives?

I have copies both with red lettering/red paper and white lettering/black paper. They are definitely not bootlegs, originated with a Georgia-based jukebox company and the deadwax etchings are all identical. When DL-9900-1 is placed at 6 o'clock, AT is at 3 o'clock and a 3 (or is it an M?) is at roughly 8 o'clock. On the flip side, DL-10431-11, and the AT and the 3 (or M) are etched.

Just a few short hours left....

150+ 45s ending on the 17th. Check 'em out here. Just a few of the offerings:

Probably not the Rose Bowl, but maybe Pasadena City College? That market does have loads of record dealers. Either way, you'll want to get there EARLY in the morning.

It's on Joyja, not Joda. Unfortunately, I don't think that information will help one surface for you more quickly.

It's been years since I've had one of these. Peg Leg Moffett — The Shocker / Teeny Weeny Bit (Peachtree 103) VG+ $50 Two fantastic sides from what is probably Atlanta's most collectible soul label. Little Esther Phillips — While It Lasted / Why Should We Try Anymore (Lenox NX-5570) NM- $25 Evergreen beat ballad Pips — Every Beat of My Heart / Room In Your Heart (HunTom 2510) VG++ $350 The 45 that started everything for Gladys Knight & The Pips! First issue that was sold to Fury and then again (!) to Vee Jay by one of the label partners, allegedly without the knowledge of the other partner in this record label.

This is the copy I've used as my own DJ copy, and while it certainly isn't easy on the eyes, it's still pleasing to the ears, sounding way better than it looks (check the sound file). Given the condition and the rarity, I'm having a hard time putting a firm price on this one. Please feel welcome to send me an offer.

Thankfully, Old Time Lover plays like a charm. Irma Thomas — Break-A-Way / Wish Someone Would Care (Imperial 66013) VG $20 Joe Towns — Take Mama Out of That Shack / Down and Out World (Top Dog 106) NM- $25 Zaida Turner — I Want To Find Some One / Every Step Of The Way (Tuneglow 5) VG+ $80 Randolph Walker — Achin' All Over / You'll Lose Your Love (Mala 572) VG+ $40 Lovelace Watkins — Dreams / Who Am I (Sue 10-003) VG+/VG $120 B side has a couple of audible scratches but does not skip. B side label has a black marker mark on it as well. "Dreams" is in better shape and sounds great. Lynn Westbrook — African Strut part 1 / African Strut part 2 (Esprit 29446) NM- $40 Beautiful copy of this tough Atlanta Funk 45. Kim Weston — Looking For the Right Guy (Tamla 54100) VG+ wlp $50 One-sided Audition copy.

OK. Probably the last time I try to poke this thread. Nobody knows this record?

Here's a link to the full article for those of you who didn't see it the first time 'round. Thankfully, I've lost a good 40lbs since that photo was taken.

This one is still available. Willing to hear offers.

The below quoted message is from Eula Cooper.

Russell and all. I'll give her a call tomorrow.
