Maybe the guy who had the Marc Bolan acetate also paid for the rights to release it.....?

No, you just own an acetate.....no rights to release it whatsoever.....no grey area. (Unless you wrote and produced it of course !)

Some-one told me today that he was advised to sell his originals by whoever is involved because it would do just that.....

The best thing that could happen here is if some-one else booted all these titles and flooded ebay with them at £6 a piece......

But you used to slag off Jonathan Capree all the time.....you hate the record.......you'd keep a boot of that over a crispy £50 note.......hmmm

Exactly......you've already said you've had loads of people messaging you for copies and that certain ones you'd want at least £50 for................only time will tell but shall we meet back here in 6 months without editing our comments and see who got it right?

I actually said £2k.....I know of records being pressed up at £2 a copy......but yes, more than 50 copies for sure......I implied as much earlier in thread that no-one would press up the supposed 30 copies of each as mentioned by Pete. My instinct says 200 of each, and I think at that number you would get them for around £2 each........and they probably wont ALL sell for £50 to £100 each.......but I bet most do.

Mixed across the genres I don't think 50 titles would be difficult........but if not, hey £38K for 20 titles ain't too shabby a deal

20 titles......50 copies of each.......and yes, some might not sell so well, but on balance some may well sell for more than £50.......

I'm still puzzled why these would be given away to folk to appease soul pack purchases.....unless.... Suppose 50 copies of the supposed 20 titles were pressed....that's 1000 x 45s, probably for an outlay of £2K This thread has now brought them out into the open.....and guess what, values of £50 to £100 a piece are already being discussed. We all have a moan and groan, fingers get pointed and a few people get slagged off. Then, these appear on the market, not at originals, but for what they are....and sell for, lets say, £50 a pop. After dishing out a few freebies, that probably leaves 40 x copies of 20 titles = 800 x45s @ £50 each = £40K Nobody gets ripped off, cus folk will buy them for what they are......and a potential profit of £38K is made. Now suppose there is more than 20 titles.....and more than 50 of each pressed...... They don't need to be flogged as originals to create a healthy profit. Are we being played folks.....???

Doubt anyone would press as little as 30 copies of each to be honest.........also didn't Simon Soussan apparently re-surface in recent months..........????? Could history be repeating itself?..........

I was informed (by a friend who is close to Levine) that this 'turned up' in quantity recently, and a good friend of mine sold his own copy for that reason.......something smells very bad here and I think some serious shit is gonna be hitting some very large fans in the not too distant future........

I admire you for sticking up for a friend Pete, and I have no axe to grind with anyone associated or being discussed on this thread.....but if someone who you consider to be a friend, is telling you that BP 'Mama' has sold for £200/$200 then they are misleading you, and these are not facts in any way shape or form.

Listed or Sold?........I sold my last promo recently for £30 (Ex-) .... the most it ever seems to have sold for is $75.......don't understand what this comment means Pete....anyone could list anything on ebay for whatever they want.....it means fcuk all unless it sells, and whilst I understand your support for Ian in this matter I don't get this statement.....you are usually the first person to criticise over inflated valuations so this seems totally out of character for you Pete?

Not records, but very cool record middles so guess it okay to list here......? These record middles / 45 adaptors have been produced in very limited quantities (8 of each) - they are made from brushed stainless steel and look stunning..............available to buy now from my website @ £10 each + postage.

Thought there was an echo in here at first! ;o)

People in glass houses......... ;o)

Ha! (full stop not required)

Actually, it's Monkeys ........unless you were referring to the 60s pop band The Monkees.

I'd like to take this moment in time To write another crappy rhyme, To wish my friends the very best, But bollox to all the rest, I hope next Year brings all you need, To love and laugh, and to succeed, In all your hopes, dreams and plans And make the most of all you can, For life is short, so live it well And when times-up, no-one can tell So don't hoard coins and precious shite Spend it all, on my website! Ha ha! Have a good one folks! All the best for 2016. https://rhythm-and-soul45s.com/
