No actually if you bypass the vocals and the backing vocals, this is a Ritz type shuffler, honest...shame they had to sing over the top of it really

Which means that the first lot found were not water damaged and then a subsequent batch were...

Gash have you still got Don & Ron on white cliffs?

OK first the bad news - this is cracked - now the good news - I did a sterling repair job on it as you can hear from the audio clip. Clicks at the start for about 20 seconds then fades to practically nothing. This books at £700 at the moment so I'm going to ask £200 for it, like I said, if you're going to dj with this it will be absolutely perfect. The b side won't play though as I stuck it on that side with tape, if you remove the tape it will but then you'll have to realign the crack and it took me ages to do it so that the top side will play. Anyway have a listen.

Gene Robertson's got a UK Maxine Brown for sale Dave, it's in the sales section on here

I'd ask £75...

It's off ready steady go mate, I'm 99% certain I've got it so if I can remember where, no problem

This record is graded EX, there's a description of the grades, and then there's a photo of the record https://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-THE-ROSEBUDS-TOWE...1QQcmdZViewItem

Is this poll still open?

What's most important - to me - is having the record so I couldn't care less what label it's on as long as I can play it at home. If I was to play it out - it would be on Cool - but at home, it could be on Music For Pleasure for all I care

bump

There's nothing to 'dislike' about it but by the same token, there's nothing particularly outstanding about it - it's just 'nice'

Italy? Isn't it a grand prix circuit?

I had a Monzas record in a picture sleeve, can't remember which one, but inside was a handwritten letter from their promotor with little biogs about each group member, was quite a nice bit of memorablia. I also bought a few copies of various 45's off their lead singer/songwriter

If vinylcarvers weren't on holiday I'd have a double sided copy of this with labels on ebay this weekend (not really - but someone will)

OK I guess it'salright after a few plays. Anyway listen - this is the lead singer from The Sweets "Something about my baby" - the voice is identical

Yes and typical me, I go to do the same thing and it won't work with this version of windows by the looks of it!

Tony go online and find a program called Freecorder, download it and Bobs yer uncle, it records anything you play via your soundcard and it's a free download too

makes you wonder what the fuss is about really, and the Sweets murders that B side, which has obviously been remixed from the original backing track, even sounds like a synthesiser on there at one point. I bet this is a well known artist under another name.

I'm not complaining, I'd just like to know what the problem is, but the main point was - who said you could reopen my thread??? I mean, there's moderating and then there's moderating! And no way does that come under a moderators powers, if a member wants to close their own thread. Anyway it's open again now...

I'd already reopened it anyway. And if you are going to use heavy handed moderating tactics like those above then I'd like to know who I complain to
