Sorry but the only Crazy Baby I know of is by The Coasters. HOWEVER are you thinking of CRAZY by Sherry Gibbs? This was a cover up later found out to be by The Fascinations.

If you use a sniper and place your bid in advance, your computer doesn't have to even be connected to the electricity let alone the internet!

Yes they do, as far as I know.

I suggested this to them 3 years ago when the iphone and apps were just taking off. One of these days, when I get an idea, I'm gonna do it myself.

You'd do better putting them on here and selling them in one go then putting them on ebay where you might not get a sniff of a sale. And if you get really stuck, send the list to me and I'll send it out via my mailout, it's fantastic exposure.

Some great titles this time and some of the harder to find pressings. Bizarrely some of these are now harder to find than originals! These are all USA imports i.e. no UK releases. Post will be £2 for 1 to 3 records then add 20p for each after that, overseas I will quote you. 01902 326306 or email pete.smith@freeuk.com, could I just politely ask please don't order anything you don't actually want, some people order five records, I've got only two so they cancel the order, please don't do that as other people ask for the same records. USA PRESSINGS, REISSUES, SECOND ISSUES, BOOTS, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL THEM PRACTICALLY ALL OF THESE WERE STORED IN A GARAGE OR SIMILAR AND ALL NEED CLEANING - I WILL CLEAN THEM BEFORE I POST THEM. THIS IS WHY A LOT SAY EX-, THEY WILL PROBABLY CLEAN UP TO M- AS THEY JUST HAVE A COATING OF WHATEVER GATHERS ON RECORDS.

I've still got one for £50. As you know.

Nah, it may be 2 years on but the debate we had Bessie Banks + Billy Stewart vs Moody Blues + Georgie Fame was one of the most heated I've ever known on here, so I think I'd best stay out of this one now. Always ends in tears.

It's way too fast. I don't not like it, it's just not as good.

The Moody Blues take the fairly poor original and turn it into a masterpiece. Note for note copy, you're having a laugh surely. Bessie Bank's version sounds like an unfinished demo.

what you on about?

Ken, the fake one is much larger and looks nothing like the usual, tight nashville stamp

Yeah I like it - but thought I'd give it a plug cos I want to sell it!

Weird one that as it has the catalogue number for the LP that it comes from, maybe all singles did? https://strata-east.blogspot.com/2008/03/ses-19742-gil-scott-heronbrian-jackson.html

Be lucky to get £95 to be honest let alone £950. Is it that guy who always starts things at outrageous prices to get loads of views then changes the price?

They pressed the bootleg as a French 45 lookalike, but if you've bought it in it's ps, it's likely to be real and also the original issue

Back again with some rare, obscure and interesting 45's from the 60's I do apologise for cutting back on the UK releases but as I mentioned in the previous episode, I've actually sold an awful lot of mine - though there are some absolute... Tap to view this Soul Source News/Article in full

Platters wasn't even released until the mid 80's so I'd guess Johnny Hampton's came first. As for those who think the Four Season's version of I'm Gonna Change Is Better than The Velours...

At least that records got some drive behind it...pretty bloomin' good

If anyone is still after a copy of this, I've got one, visually vg++ plays EX, nice bit of provenance as it came from Fred Bridges' daughter recently. £125.

That's right, he looks naff and his record is actually brilliant. If only I hadn't seen that photograph.

Richard Chorley, this is your life the circle is complete...

That's just one of the bootlegs, the vinyl bootleg has the scratched in Nashville matrix, so it is a boot Crumb.
