Johnny Moore?

I've got that too....

i think i've got a compilation album or CD at home with sleeve notes saying it is the "45 mix" which seems to indicate there is a 7".... I'll try ang dig it out tonight.

The mint first issue/release went on Manship auction the other week for about £130.....so £75 sounds about right.

It was the night Keb guested for the Stow-a-way soul girls..... was it Maria's birthday? i have other pictures of that night and both you and Ady are dressed in the same outfits.... plus you're not allowed abroad....

Captain Weston in Germany

Germany???? The Soul Bar in sunny Walthamstow Ken.....

As far as I remember the 3 different takes issued all have the same release number....

were there not in fact 3 different takes issued?

i was reading something very recently about codes and there was mention of letters for mono and stereo releasees....may have been Dave Flynn's site...

How do you know a West Coast Demo, address around bottom?

LORETTA WILLIAMS - BABY CAKES - Love this one....think I paid the same price off Dave Flynn a while ago.

I remember buying a very clean (near mint) blue issue off Rob Messer at Spitalfield market during the week...DJing with it on the Saturday and while trying to put it back in my box fell forward and snapped it in half on the table edge. Went to Plinston Hall a few weeks later and got another off Rob but a nice white demo.

Had you been drinking Ian?

Oh I must be wrong then if the Manship bible says £150...... It's a guide compliled by a record seller for goodness sake. I've seen plenty go for £60 to £75....ebay is not the only place to buy records either....

When this came up about two years ago it was apparent that the 70s issue was pressed from the original stampers and was not easy to tell apart from the 60s original press. Anyway i got mine off you Pete so I'll have a good look tonight

£60 - £75.....

Maria played this at Boomerang on Saturday...I think I have heard her spin it before in the old days in thw Soul Bar in Walthamstow....can some kind person add it to the refosoul archive please.

Should have seen the RnB/Ska room at TOTS in December......if its dead it was sure one hell of a wake.

I'll offer you £60 for Darrell Banks....

That must be a boot then . Can you post a scan of it please.

not booted to my knowledge...but I think all copies are styrene...not sure about a demo though.

I'll give you a silly offer..... 50p.....
