Cant fully understand this. Yes top notch tune in lovely condition, BUT how many on SS own it? Rare yes BUT how many are known to exist.Must be maybe 25/30 in the UK. What would be the press run at the time 300,500? I dont know but when compared to FW or some of the Shrine stuff being discussed on here is it truly rare? I dont know all the answers as I am posing them. Maybe there are only a handful but common sense dictates to me that there are more about?? Bit like all the Frankie Beverleys Because of my heart suddenly coming up for sale. Has a batch on Rouser been found? Like Ted I cant understand the early bidding either. Deep breath, having said all that would love to go for it but not got the cash this month.Good luck to whoever prevails.

Wow how on earth do you find these things. Love it.

I have Marie Knight Thats no way to treat a girl on Orange Columbia. Love it. US Musicor of course.

Sod it tax bill due at the end of Jan.

Just played both TH and BK on youtube. Both are quicker than HM to my ear. I think BK was the version I was thinking about in my earlier post. Wonder who claims credit for playing BK first maybe that will answer it. Good fun!

Hmmm did not realise that. And when was BK played and by whom. Maybe a Peterborough or St Ives based DJ who did not play at WC?? Just a thought. Thanks Pete.

No I reckon Bob Kuban was played around the time of Harold Melvin. It was also played at Peterborough and St Ives ( maybe). I went to all 3. I think TH was a bit later. What year was HM around 74 -75 I guess? Think TH was a bit later. Lovin on the losin side seemed to be big and reasonable. What year was that? Nope reasonably certain Bob Kuban was my man. I think Bob Kuban was a little faster than HM from my memory.

Thanks Grant

Bloody hell Nige that is incredible and bloody prompt. Is Jimmy Mack Harrison anything to do with the Palmer guy I now wonder although the style is not similar? You have got me going now. Thank You so much. I must confess I knew about the Geronimo release just forgot to add it on my intro. Top stuff.

Morning all. Got one of those going on in my head. Was thiniking about Lenny Curtis and thinking how much like Sam Cooke he sounded! Anyhow after a bit of internet searching I could not find out much about the guy. He had something out with Damita Jo and apart from Nothing etc thats it! Anyone any info on the man anyone? I know Nothing was on Spanish Hit, we have the End copy and this Damita Jo song and that seems to be it?? I usually get knocked out by the knowledge on here hope someone can help Thanks Steve.

Hi Guys nope it was Bob Kuban. Tended to treat Tommy Hunt as a joke when I went to WC. However saw him at a small place here in Stockport some years later and he was very good. He did a kind of request thing in the break and sung the requests on his own without the band. Thank You.

I recall another version getting plays at the same time? Was it Bob Kuban?

Take Pete with you buy one get one free!!

Twas 1975 methinks not 65.

I am with Julian on this. When is your next night please? Thanks. Steve

Ooops sorry just noticed the heading. Sorry!

Hi Des IS IT ME or have you not posted the prices. Cant see them here mate??

I think personally this should start here on SS. I dont buy boots but I do get peed off trawling through lists on here of boots etc for sale. Like Diddie earlier I dont care but I prefer to stick with my own values. Maybe a seperate heading for BOOTS Sales on here would be a good starting point. Just my personal thoughts. I get it that people earn a living and I dont have a problem with that. It just bugs me when I see a heading including something I want then it turns out not to be in the format I want. Happy New Year everyone. Regards Steve

Very good stuff. Well done!

Thank you.
