Theres been a topic about this about 6 weeks ago - it's not unreleased at all and is worth £25

Mick had one in his box last week for £25 but I couldn't be bothered, I knew I'd never play it. I actually found the LP by them a few years ago, UK Verve.

Some rare, some obscure, sorry if any duplicates from other posts

For those who don't know - this is a version of Blues In The Night, a good one too. Sold mine for £250 about 18 months ago via JM. Just been repressed in Japan I think.

Don't forget though, when we did that originally, there was only one recording available and that was the one used.

Never mind that, stop in and write me a list of 50 or so super obscure British things I should be looking for, I thought I knew pretty much everything til you posted those scans up. p.s. I said I thought I had that "Circus" record on Parlophone, found it, and it's not that bad really!

Still some decent titles left!

£75, I'd ask £25 for it!

That's not it Paul, Lord knows what that one is, but "The Painter" is more uptempo than that and although I personally can't stand it, you'd never know who it was in a month of sundays and it's much better than the one on that video.

Wasn't that what this was all about though, possibly homeless bloke with great voice having to busk for living, great undiscovered talent...then it turns out he's not so undiscovered after all. You lot have been had.

So you all still think he's so great now you know he's not a homeless busker?

I ain't had a lot of luck in my life Steve but I don't expect someone to film me. Life IS hard. The majority of us don't get to live our dreams.

It's a bit specialist for me - I collect UK but wouldn't pay much for that as it's a Motown collectors record. I'd have said issue 150 demo 250

I'm not being grumpy or facetious, just sounds like a shouty bloke to me, not saying he can't sing.

We've got loads of people like this in Wolverhampton, sitting on benches, shouting. Shall I film a few of them?

You lot are really going over the top this time.
