From the album: Hip City Soul Club 02.01.10
-
very true, still I feel its frightening how many great artists are currently leaving us, Wilie Mitchell, Teddy Pendergrass (at only 59) Harmon Bethea, Earl Gaines to name only just the very recent ones. Marc

Just found this great youtube clip and thought some might like it. Enjoy! Back up girl in the middle is Darlene Love. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zJKq9A6OCI

Just heard about the sad recent passing of R&B veteran Earl Gaines und Soul artist Harmon Bethea of Maksman & The Agents. RIP. Marc

Thats one solid double-sider. Marc

Conner Cagle going to Germany...to me...no way LOL! I am stint...thats my new middle name in 2010 anyway LOL!
-
Somehow but definitely doubt that

Well a collectors piece as well maybe, but surely one of the very very few new discoveries (or shall I say very little known 45s) to be found and played these days. So more a hot and ready to play 45 for the scene rather than a sheer collectors item. At a guess its been bought for that very reason...and because of that the final price doesn`t seem too stupid given two (in fact three) desperate DJ`s wanting to have sth unique and "fresh" and bid-fighting over it.

Very likely to be, wouldn`t surprise me.

seconded, great record and as I played it there in 2006 you could even say its a 100 CLUB spin LOL ! Marc
-
It used to be a "massive" spin for me two years ago, always played alongside Harvey Scales "Trying To Survive". Fantastic tune indeed and I have seen copies go already for around 250 UKP....wouldn`t sell mine.

Really like his voice! And Buddy Ace is a winner (as always) too. Marc

just found both on youtube, how nice
-
Uh, well alright, when your two minters have gone I will be happy to sell this mint minus copy for 50 UKP as well. As long as I can make some one happy I won`t mind.
-
Two tips from me on the cheaper side of things ICE "HARD TIMES" Beautiful Modern mover very much in the same vein as Timeless Legend etc. If this would be only more known and rarer and played by someone called Martin, Mark or Mick it would be a 1000 UKP record. GARLAND GREEN "CAN`T BELIEVE YOU QUIT ME UNI" Awesome -funkly-edged- flipside of one of his classic sides on UNI. So much en vogue with its sound that its almost frightening...just play it after Roy Roberts "You Move Me" and you will see what I mean....

I remember playing this in 2008 at S.O.U.L. in Gijon /Spain resulting in some of the UK Funk boys eye brows raising...great 45 indeed but I won`t say better than Billy Byrd as both are way too different then to be compared with each other. Both brrilliant in my book. Billy Byrd the one to hunt down in 2010 though
-
Funny little record this is. Had it for ages before it went into my sales box some years ago already. No takers at only 50,- . When I noticed one very known DJ purchased a copy for 250 UKP early last year I pulled it out again and stucked it in my play box...only to never pleay it agan. In other words it hasn`t made it in the past, it has not made it in 2009 it won`t make it in 2010. Any takers out there for a minter at 100 ,- ?? Marc

Soul Sam must have heard The Jan from Hamburg playing this earlier last year in bamberg as he was first to reactivate it
-
Don`t think there can be one distinctive answer to the original question. It will always depend on the records demand, rarity and and how much the crack is affecting the play. Nobody would b willing to pay 100 UKP for a cracked Sam Fletcher yet I bet there are people out there who would be more then happy to pay 5000 UKP for a cracked but OK playing Frankie Wilson (to name just one example).

Another musical genius has left...and lleaves us with a big gap. I once had the pleasure of meeting him in 1989. RIP Willie Mitchell. I am sure you will be sitting up there with the best of them. Marc
-
Maybe till the wallet is full again LOL ! Seriously though, if both sides of a record are great it doesn`t make sense to me to go for a destroyed copy (the one on ebay is destroyed for 2/3 of its lenght). I would sit back and wait for a better one to come along. A rare one yes, but as we just have seen not an impossible one. Too many other good 45s out there to buy which would not bring a tear to your eye everytime the needle hits the flipside. Just my opinion of course.
