about Sam Dees on SSS International?

Sorry, don't think I know it let alone have it...anyone else?

The link to them has expired mate

Good luck Craig. Thats f*cking horrible

Tone - yes and yes! Benice Swanson..it sounds just like it. The Jack Nitzsche compilation is absolutely superb. There's a track on there by The James Gang and I'm positive that the last part of the string arrangement was used by Fat Boy Slim on the track Right Here Right Now. The whole cd is stunning, as are the two Phil's Spectre compilations. NS Classiest rarities is ok, the sleeve notes neglect to say that the version of Willie Amos Hunt on UK camp is a different one to that on US. Have packed your 45 up and it'll be away tomorrow.

This sounds a lot like something else to me, I'm thinking of a girl singer on Chess. This is a big beat ballad thing, kitchen sink production, not to some tastes as it's white but wortha listen

Nobody's saying the auctions are dodgy - it's more that you can watch in amazement as people pay ridiculously high prices, sometimes double or treble what the record is being sold for. For instance, I sold a PP Arnold UK Immediate demo last week for something like £140. If that had been in the auction it would almost certainly have gone for something like £350. That's life! Why would anyone but a London demo of Larry Saunders for over £100 when they can but a US original off me for £45? Answer: because they've got the money to be able to do so. Originally I thought the auction prices where reached due to people not knowing what the records were actually worth, nowadays I think they do know, but they can afford it and the records not coming round again for a while so why not buy it? But there's nothing wrong with someone having an opinion on a price. If record X sells for 200 quid above it's usual asking price then obviously there's going to be a discussion about it. Thats not slagging off the seller, it's just discussion about a record.

Pointer Sisters original, £50+ ... I'd want £75 I think

Thanks to all the investigators. So is it worth anything?

Dan, if Heartaches Away My Boy has SOS on the back it's worth a fiver

Thanks Chalky but that doesn't exactly identify the one I posted up, right number, wrong coupling...

Also thinking though - it's got Lets Go Somewhere on the b side. I don't think these 2 tracks were coupled together until the 1974 issue where they?

I suppose reissues must be on Rare Earth as the label didn't start til 68 did it?

I don't know, thats why I'm asking, most of the original Motown lp's have that M symbol as their logo

I was presuming this is a 1974 reissue to cash in on the Uk success, but not toally convinced as it has the original US VIP catalogue number...anyone know...smart though

yes I've got both for sale

I've got a cashing in if you want it - mint original - 25 quid

I've had people telling me items are broken several times so I ask them to send me a photo or send the record back, hey guess what, THEY NEVER DO!

My Val & Nick went for £43 or thereabouts yesterday...

Sorry to have to ask for info again but as you know this is not my specialist subject and I don't want to give them away if they are worth something.

I don't know if it's a reissue or not but it doesn't have a cover unfortunately

Actually it may have been pale blue not pink

Thanks for everyones help. That Cannonball is silver Mark, I've had it before but it was the pink label, sold it for 20 quid to I.L. I think.
