I knew there had to be a worse record than George Hobson, it's a close call but this is it!

You should be able to easily find an Anna King on Ebay for £20 - £25

The Linda & Pretenders is a Shrine record in all but label mate...and someone bought Val Martinez off me this morning so finally got shut of it!

25/10/05 PETE SMITH 28 JENKS ROAD WOMBOURNE WOLVERHAMPTON WV5 0BL 01902 893569 Pete.smith@freeuk.com Hello! Back with another mini-list of this weeks arrivals, plus the remainder of last weeks list are reduced at the bottom of the page. Please have confidence in my gradings, I describe everything as honestly and as accurately as is possible, there is no point in me saying a record is better than it is! Cheers Pete In no particular order... JACKYE OWENS - YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING AWFULLY GOOD - JACKLYN DEMO EX 25 Brilliant girlie stomper, Bert Keyes arranged FREDDIE GORMAN - THE DAY WILL COME - MIRACLE VG- 30 Excellent early Motown dancer - looks rough, plays way better than my grade - books 75.00 ELLAINE & THE SHARDELLS - TELL ME THAT YOU CARE - MUSIC FORUM VG 25 This is ultra-obscure, it's an uptempo girl group sound, wouldn't say really Northern but if you like those early 60's girls you'll love this...can't find anything out about it whatsoever except it appeared on a compilation called Girls In The Garage Volume 6! THE CARLETTS - I'M GETTING TIRED / LOST WITHOUT YOUR LOVE - CAPITOL EX sold Never seen a copy of this - ever. Brilliant double sider. Books 200 quid. JIMMY BEAUMONT - YOU GOT TOO MUCH GOING FOR YOU / I NEVER LOVVED HER ANYWAY - BANG M- sold Practically new copy - awesome double sider - nice issue THE PRESENT - MANYS THE SLIP - PHILIPS VG+ 25 Classic oldie - plays great LIZA SMITH - I WANNA LOVE YOU - BIG TOP VG+ 20 Bought this blind as it's published by Vicki Music aka Duke Browner. It's an early 60's r&b dancer, big voiced lady. LINDA & THE PRETENDERS - BELIEVE ME - ASSAULT VG++ 500 Beautiful girl vocal, possibly the first ever Shrine record in all but name. Slight edge warp not affecting play, otherwise a very strong VG++, and pressed on vinyl. THE MOOD MOSAIC - A TOUCH OF VELVET A STING OF BRASS - CAPITOL EX- 20 Sounds strange but I didn't know this even came out in the US! Dated May 12th 1966. DIAN JAMES - SOME KINDA WONDERFUL - GROOVE DEMO M- 20 Not the Soul Brothers Six number - this is a huge beat ballad. DAVID RUFFIN - ONE OF THESE DAYS - ANNA VG 30 Very early Motown subsidiary...uptempo early dancer with nice group type flip J.J. BARNES - THESE CHAINS OF LOVE - MICKAYS EX- 25 Nice early Detroit dancer, pink/black label, Mike Hanks production GINA MARIE & THE SKAT KATS - SOURCE OF LOVE - SNAP EX- 25 Nice clip-clop girl group sound LITTLE ROSE LITTLE - YOU'VE GOT THE LOVE - ROULETTE VG+ 20 Belting dancer LINDA JONES - I JUST CAN'T LIVE MY LIFE - WARNER BROS VG 90 Looks rough plays absolutely superb, writing on label and a bit of wear but this is half price and a bargain - trust me, sound quality is superb REDUCED STUFF FROM LAST LIST THE PEPS - DETROIT MICHIGAN - D-TOWN G 20 Oh dear, a record which has never seen a sleeve in it's life - books at £100 to £150 - plays alright but obviously covered in small scratches, crackles etc DONNIE CARL & THE DONNELLS - IT HAPPENED TO ME - TY TEX VG 15 Pretty good R&B ish dancer JOSH WHITE JR - I CAN'T RUN AWAY - MERCURY DEMO EX 15 Have to admit both sides unknown to me and the guy is obviously a country singer - but good beat ballad one side and dancer on the other, in both price guides at £50 so what do I know VAL MARTINEZ - SOMEONE'S GONNA CRY - RCA EX 30 This is the original early 60's version and it's brilliant! Can't believe nobody's bought this yet! LYNN SOBEY - WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR LOVE / YOU'LL KNOW I'M AROUND - ABC DEMO Two really nice late 60's sides M 15 SUE DARBY - CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF YOU BABY - ABC DEMO EX 10 Good version of The Toys WANDA WILLIAMS - I'VE GOT A SECRET - FOREST GREEN VG++ 10 POSTAGE FOR RECORDS £1.50 recorded delivery £5.00 special delivery Same prices for Europe Elsewhere, 50p extra. CREDIT CARD - CHEQUE - PAYPAL - CASH - POSTAL ORDER I take 'em all.

Gale Garnett was released in America so doesn't qualify. Jackie Edwards was recorded in England so it's not Jamaican.

It's miles rarer than the Nosnibor one Ted. Sold it anyway

First copy of this I've ever seen I think...EX...£200

I haven't. Every one I've ever seen has been VG. Can't be that rare surely. Nice demo though.

Best spelling mistake of the week so far 6. TONY TRIPE B/W RUDIES - RED, RED WINE / BLUES - DOWN TOWN - DT-419 (VG) You sure thats his real name??

EX- very slight edge warp not affecting play, lovely copy, plays fabulous(ly)...vinyl not styrene, clean labels...will cook you breakfast if you ask it to offers over £500

I'll try and remember that, mr two posts

Never seen such ridiculous prices in my life. Magic Potion demo £75 - try £30 if you're lucky.

That Stax documentary was on one of my videos going on for 10 years ago...funny how it's resurfaced...it was originally shown on Channel 4

Is that the sports quiz where they keep ringing that damn bell, I don't understand it at all, gives me a headache

You should be able to get a Stateside demo for that, the issue shouldn't be more than £15!

I just sold an unplayed copy of the Showmen on red/yellow Action for £40

https://offer.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...item=4780726097 I am "mayfairmenthol" and the same bidder has bid four times and won the item right? Except the seller has emailed me a second chance offer. Does he really expect to believe someone who has bid four times is going to say he now doesn't want the item within an hour of winning it? Honestly some people. I bet the sellers other user name is morganic222.

I didn't like it at the time but in retrospect it's a bit of a classic.

Awful record

Joe King - goodness knows how many of these there are...I got offered this this week PRIX#7002 JOE KING SPEAK ON UP (NORTHERN) $30 each must take 50 copies

Ska

Sorry it's not SOUL but it is SOULFUL rocksteady, ska and reggae...I'll do another unissued northern special if there's any interest.. NORTHERN SOUL, SKA, ROCKSTEADY & REGGAE https://pirateradionetwork.com/ download the free mp3 player to be able to hear the broadcast, then scroll down to MUSIC and ALTERNATIVE and click on SOUL & SKA A GO GO (or listen via the WEBSTREAM link next to the station name)

Good for you Rich, well done.

It could be - it's actually off an old Mike Raven show circa 1971! I think I've got a reggae version of it by Nicky Thomas..

Love Slipped...is from an Ohio PLayers LP
