A couple of years ago we worked really hard on a lead...usual stuff...guy worked in the record industry all his life, he died and left a basement full of records and his son just wants rid of them...etc etc
Eventually we got in there, i remember it was cup final day, we watched Liverpool beat West Ham in a bar about 10.00 then went to the guys place. Found some tasty stuff but what made the visit worthwhile was 7 minty copies of Bobby Sheen "Something new to do". When we got home, a couple of days went by and I had a call from Shifty, "Ere, `av you played your Bobby Sheens yet?" he says, "No" says I "Why?"...."Just fackin play it"....
So i did....and it was some other bloody record that was pressed with Bobby Sheen labels on it!!
somebody recognised it and it turned out to be something like Friends of Distinction or some other similar 70s band...
Gutted?.....not really, we often have a laugh about it. I might take `em back and ask for my $2.00 a copy refund one day!
On the same subject i had an email from Bobby Sheens son a couple of years ago saying his Dad had died and he wanted to collect all of his Dads records. At the time i could`nt help him but we exchanged a few emails and i made sure he knew of the popularity of Bobbys records in the uK.
