Used to be really into 'almost grown', a US 90s TV show, one episode is about him searching for a stash of cash he'd hidden in a record years ago,from his vast collection, it ends up being stashed in a copy of 'fist full of dollars'. Obviously!

Rare isnt a permanent term, count boxes of in demand items do turn up.

Certainly an amount of vitreous indignation that's not becoming of the elder generation of soul purists and someone so respected and knowledgable. Leave it out chalky, you sound bitter!

It's not a great record to dance too. Hate the bloody record personally. Rarity over quality, OK it's got soul, unusual production etc, but in terms of groove it ain't all that and certainly never a dance floor winner. The scene is just so fractured now can there be a single big tune, what's just breaking in the mainstream is past its best before in the upfront.

But supermarket chains manipulate the price they buy there stock at too. Do you think record dealers have this luxury? Buy in prices are rising for dealers at the same time, surely this has to effect the retail price for punters. This thread just seems like its having a pop at sellers, but so many of us that trade records are equally guilty. I've passed on loads of tunes that are in demand, based on wants and sales on here, and I've been astonished at some prices, I've got. I'd prefer a pile of semi knows with potential to one hot, or let's face it, hammered over played record, that the oldies lot have just picked up on.

Thankfully the record collecting world is not based on nearly as much bulls thither as the art world

I think issue is rarer than the demo, price above seems about right, doesn't come up all that often.

Not used for a number of years, but we're great when I did, timmion of Iceland,? If I remember correctly.

Potentially a lot of its collectable. Some of the early UK independents, new Jersey stuff, early Chicago House has already started to rise in price. As for a scene we'll there a are plenty of revivals around and just a few, that as we used to do at lovehouse, push the boundaries a bit. It was always great to see the expressions on faces when I played one they'd forgotten, but a recollection was secretly stashed somewhere in the ghettos of their minds.

A few old boys I know thought the atmosphere in the hacienda and shelly's betterd that of both the torch and wigan. Personally burnley , go go and soulfunction could be up there with some of the best nights I've had for atmosphere.

Hendrix and chad chandler didn't think they could break hendrix in the states and focused Initially on the UK market, thinking us more more progressive in our outlook.

My love for stevie is only just stronger than my hate of that rolly polly, smug over grown sixth former.

tune aint bad, he can sing a bit, but that video, well.................................................

I can remember, there was a special on tv about some of the bank holiday violence that had had happened, late 70's early 80's, I can distinctly remember frank Bough describing the different factions, punks, skins, mods ect and soulboys, as you said Dave it was a catch all preliminary term for casuals, before the term was invented. we used to call them normal round are way, we had Chell heath skins and the Norton normals.

Contract has already been cited twice.

You be honest that isn't to bad.

Led zeppelin used to cover it at early live shows.

Had to have another only one, forgot this. Always wondered why it's so rare, only one sold according to Popsike. A peice of uptempo soul that's totally individual. Rather than so many that are just really good examples of a type.

when was this day when you could buy a decent collection for a weeks wage?

Was waiting for someone else to pick this, can't believe it's not up yet. Probably the best lyrics ever, think it edges my first pick. https://youtu.be/GYQfWJNWe3I

ron hardy used to play it at the power plant, at +8 apparantly
