This is the audio taken directly from the Frank Wilson test pressing. Sorry if against rules Mike but it is quite an important recording so am posting it for 'historical' purposes 01 Do I Love You (Indeed I Do).mp3

If only, my friend has so far sent me a dozen and she just can't get it in focus, I'll show you

Better quality shot of the Frank Wilson matrix

That picture is a fake

It's not that rare though really is it, a few people were bidding on this copy in an auction 3 weeks or so back

It's a thankless task trying to sell "lesser knowns" I've got a thousand of 'em, great records but people would rather pay £500 for a copy of The Younghearts

I agree almost I'd have said 50 to 75

Always love reading your sales posts Alan, you're as blunt as I am sometimes - GTF!

£10 Matt, £15 if you're lucky...

You must hate 95% of people who sell records then including your mates Mick and me

That's the one I meant Robb, sorry

They are nice - they sent me a video clip of both sides playing but obviously recorded via a phone is not great quality

When I originally posted it someone on Detroit Soul forum said I'd put the wrong matrix number and I couldn't read it so I took his word for it and changed it

No it's going to be auctioned in January

No there's one before that, looks very much like the original and is on vinyl - except has PB in the run out - only seen 2 in 30 years, one was being sold by a dealer as an original, "allegedly" he sold at at least twice and had it returned then when he sold it a third time, someone drilled a hole through the vinyl to stop him selling it again.

Was never that popular though Glyn so that might explain it.

Get £25 for that on a good day

I've never had an original of this. NIce to see the date on it though because I had no idea when it was released.

I think you'll find the original has a raised X in the run out.

They're actually more common than you'd think, but that's not what a lot of sellers seem to think. Jay D Martin £15 Gwen Owens £25. There are some very rare ones like the first presses of Salvadors, George Blackwell, the Yum Yums is rare but most are "gettable". I've currently got around 400 different in stock and four or five copies of some of them.

Cheers Derek - it is actually a sight for sore eyes - the sad thing is, some of those records were only with me for a day before being moved on

Right, first off, I found out that my email box was full so I have received no email for the 25th and 26th November, apologies if you messaged me on those dates.

All of the 'original' P.B. bootlegs were on vinyl - they let them in in small quantities so as to not flood the market and some were very very good: George Blackwell and Salvadors being the best - then as Dave says a year later they were done again, this time on the West Coast and all on styrene: J Vanelli, M britt, Salvadors, Joe Hicks, Flirtations, and so on. Inbetween those two batches was another lot, these are the ones with the dip towards the middle and included Anderson bros, Idle Few (supposed WD), and more obscure things like Jimmy Mack A Woman Is Hard To Understand. I paid £8 for that so called original Idle Few off Max must have been mid 1976...did he know? Course he did..
