I was told I'd overpriced this! I thought not...

That's actually by The Sound System who were Owen Grays backing band at the time. It also appears on the Trojan LP Millie & Her Boyfriends, again credited to Jackie & Millie but it's the instrumental version. I'm sure there is a vocal but I've never had it, if there is, it'll be by the Sound System. I've got a copy of the inst for sale but it's really knackered!

Don't think I have ever seen this label before, does anyone know anything about it? I was thinking it might possibly be an Irish release...but I really don't know. Other side is "Cowboys To Girls".

Nothing - Simsy started it. I just said that the vocal version became popular with scooterists in the first place and not on the Northern Soul scene, thats all. Stop reading things that aren't actually there.

Right well thats that then, sold at £75. I'm not a greedy man. thanks everyone.

Been told up to £150 by PM...he ain't no Darrell Banks though is he!

So would anyone want mine for £75, near mint?

How much is it really worth - Can't get Enough Of Your Love - I always thought it was cheap but maybe I only ever had bootlegs of it...have got a proper one here now, just looked in the book and it says £150! Surely not?

Art Ensley & The Echoes - Open The Door To Your Heart - Shiptown black issue. Anyone any idea how much I should be asking for this, I thought it was quite rare, £75 or so?

Indeed it is

Yeah go ahead mate

Thanks for all the interest in this list yesterday, decided that it was too complicated asking for offers and that so I've had a go at pricing them instead - all now available at set sale prices, any with no prices, I still haven't been able to find out a price for them.

Tell you what, I'm getting sick of all this "how dare you slag a record off" attitude, if you can't have an opinion on something there is no point in having a forum, we can't all like the same records. So in classic toys out of the pram style, I'll just post in sales and look at your box from now on and you can all hug each other while comparing notes on how great Footsee is.

Not quite true, booted in Yugloslavia or similar as part of a freakbeat and psych series, not for the northern scene, about 3/4 years ago

Forelock tugger

Well leave this one if you can't put up with people having an opinion for Christs sake...

UK Parlophone. Someone will tell you it's worth £400. It's not. Though certainly seen it go for that on demo. By the way, it's spelt Loyd on this 45.

One of these is by "Flowers" on LAX records and it books at £300. Which was a nice surprise

I've come into a collection of modern and crossover 45's and they are not my cup of tea so if anyone has Northern to trade OF EQUIVALENT VALUE I'll be happy to make a list. The include: towana & total destruction (romark) larry davis (kent) willie tee (gatur) brenda starr ( polydor) bobby patterson (uk action) and loads I've never even heard of so I might need a bit of help with those!

You should have put the topic title as "this weeks top 25 floor emptiers"

All rubbish especially the first one...

PM me your email address again Chris and I'll sort it out

I put some lovely footage of him up on youtube, from 1965...sadly now gone....if I ever get the chance or inclination to do it all again that'll be one of the first clips I put back up
