At least the item description isn't lacking any of the most important Ebay search key words: "Jerry Williams - If You Ask Me / Yvonne - Calla Demo 116 - Northern Soul Crossover Motown Tmg Rare Modern Funk RnB R&B Oldie's Classics Ultra Mega Popcorn Beat Mod Club New Breed Reggae Disco Boogie Doowop Rock n Roll Teen 50s 60s Psychic Freakbeat Pop Records Vinyl"

Ken, where did you get the BitCoin value from? As of today, one BitCoin is $5.743

but I'd say the TP is still collectable in a nostalgic point of view.

Anyone noticed the fault in the recording of You Can't Do That? Right after the intro, about 0:10 into the song the recording seems to slow down for a second. Like a warped record. I had a few copies of the german Jayboy release and they were all like that. So I guess the fault was in the actual master tape? See for yourself, at 00:12 of the YT vid:

JAMES FOUNTAIN - SEVEN DAY LOVER - PEACHTREE (VG++) £500 Proper original. Plays and looks lovely. Audio clip available on request ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Paypal only. Worldwide P&P flatrate from Germany: £3.60 standard / £5.90 signed for / £7.50 Fully Insured (Europe only)

A-side shite as a Reggae record and even worse as a soul record. B-side is ok though. Certainly not worth the price it went for. According to Discogs this isn't Ken Parker but infact Slim Smith on A-side and Alton Ellis on B-side. Don't know how true that is but it's definitely too different artists on both sides.

just some trivia: IWIW was also done by "The Partnership". German only release from the late 60s on an indie label called "Victoria". I wish I was saying it's a great cover. It isn't. It's awful.

THREE DEGREES - LONELY TOWN - BELLAPHON GERMANY (w/ PS) £20 Only way to get this stormin version on 45. Vinyl EX, sleeve VG ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Paypal only. Worldwide P&P flatrate from Germany: £3.60 standard / £5.90 signed for / £7.50 Insured (Europe only)

Pathetic behaviour. Either keep the details secret (and say you do) or pass on all the information. But being sketchy about the details is just poor.

Its's a geranium pot, with laces.

Please PM for further details. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Paypal only. Worldwide P&P flatrate from Germany: £3.60 standard / £5.90 signed for / £7.50 Insured (Europe only)

black lettering is kosher.

Sorry for delay. Reply got stuck in my spam filter: "Benji, We appreciate your interest. We obtained these from someone who had them custom made for his own collection. After reviewing some of them, there are some quality issues with playback. We have removed them from sale pending further investigation. Thanks and have a wonderful day, John"

I did something that I guess most of you would never think of: I emailed Craig Moerer stuff and asked for more details about the Empires repro. Of course I won't share the reply

Whenever I'm too happy I play this one. Never let's me down (or should it be always lets me down)?:

Most collectors want it either on US or UK. So the german issue isn't worth a lot. Even though it's not that easy to find. I'd say 8-10 quid.

Wanted : The Opening "Tea House" on Reggae. Please PM. Thanks!

Can't play the clip on my Firefox browser Any help?

And it says "Paris" next to "Pathe Marconi" Nevertheless. Nice collectable. Be it french or german issue.

I just looked up the Discogs entry. It says "UK Northern Soul reissue" but, looking at the label scans, it should rather say "UK Northern soul bootleg"

The speedy lyric problem (nice expression BTW) is in fact only at the beginning. But the lisp is throughout the whole song

You're right. It was a harsh. I am probably a bit oversensitive after the forum been flooded with price enquiries for rather common records last few months. Sorry.

Note: Picture Sleeves only! No records! Have found both sleeves among a pile of papers in the living room. No idea what happened to the records that used be inside the sleeves. Anyway, don't have any use for them. Maybe somebody else has? KIM WESTON - I GOT WHAT YOU NEED - MGM (EX) WILLIE MITCHELL - UP HARD - HI (VG+) £5.00 incl worldwide shipping. Paypal F&F only.

Why not do the research yourself? It's just a google click away? https://www.discogs.com/de/Joey-Kingfish-Buddy-Smith-I-Wont-Hurt-You-Anymore-When-You-Lose-The-One-You-Love/release/3507016
