I was not selling 'similar stuff' to you, mine were rare and priced accordingly. Insinuating I put a list up just to compete with yours is laughable when you see whats on them. I didn't think you knew it was a reissue. Best report me.

I've never had that version I have to be honest, but if you follow that link near the top of the page to a previous topic on the same subject, they are discussing it on there

Any Tainted LOve fans, go to 28:30 on this podcast to experience it in all it's glory https://www.mixcloud.com/mayfairmenthol/the-best-wigan-casino-live-tapeever/

Oh sorry...price confused me lol

In the real world, all the Jackie Edwards records on Island are worth £15 to £25, except for I Feel So Bad. If people are paying silly bugger prices, you're looking in the wrong places. What about that copy of Come On Home that someone paid over £300 for in a JM auction - I'd already got one, then I got a rarer Wirl copy next day, and so I sold those two and picked up another UK one for £16, which I still have, should anyone want to give me over £100 for it I will happily sell it

Pete that Phoenix City is a reissue from 1979

I think they did, they both sold a million records

Blimey, that might be tricky, I collect red and white Islands and have over 150 of them - I don't think any are truly mint...

There's room for all of 'em though!

Take no notice of those dates, he's got half his own dates wrong!

Never even heard of it - was definitely played at Wigan in 76?

If I sell this one and get more than one customer I'll pass them onto you if you like.

That's about standard Marc, or even a little cheap?

Just find out what's in the run off, as we all know, both designs were booted.

Thanks Dean but we won't agree on condition I'm afraid

If anyone wants to buy this - the black label Ember copy of Fork In The Road - please PM me. ta.

No I haven't actually put it out for sale yet mate, just wanted to see what people thought I should ask

Chi Lites - Stoned out of my mind.

Did you try opening the lid Andy?

I could probably list 50 'normal' soul records from the 1970-1975 period that I really love like Could It Be I'm Falling In Love, I'm Doing Fine Now, Sha La La, that sort of thing, but I'm going to go for this one...
