I think you may have put any potential sellers off with your comment "No Silly Prices" It's a rare record. Very highly regarded, and you will be very lucky to get one cheap.

I would say the Tobi Legend price was probably down to "The Film" The Chaumonts was a steal. Just a pity John didn't see fit to put a sound file up of the best side.

Then Tim Brown got it, didn't like it, and sold it on.

Hurrah! What have I won?

Plays mint minus? Is this a new game Julian?

Do you have a copy Simon?

£1300 in mint condition. So adjust accordingly.

Couldn't believe what I was reading on facebook when I saw Mick's post. Totally shocked, and very sad that our paths will never cross again. I genuinely used to look forward to seeing Nick and listening to his great stories. One of the best and will be much missed. RIP.

No worries Andy. I agree with you entirely. It's too easy to obtain sound files of these rare records, and devalues going out to hear them. I am amazed that you have managed to obtain a copy of "Contessa" well done mate. Hope all is well with you.

I wasn't saying that Andy's was the only copy. I was just saying that it was the only one I knew of Chalky.

I only know Andy Killick that owns one, and I can't see him putting a sound file out for everyone to have.

Release.

As far as I'm aware it's not "The Contessas" it's "The Contessa"

It's mental, 200mph.

I think played out, it could sound good. Apparently it was originally a Pat Brady spin, covered as the "Twans"

I don't know who put this up on you tube. But as far as I'm aware there has only ever been one copy of this ever turned up? Guy H spin, then TIm Brown had it and sold it because he didn't like it. Haven't got a clue who owns it now. I tried to find out when I was running Burnley. In fact I remember now, someone told me the name of the current owner, but said he would never part with it. Anyone know any more? https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=1iN1UYIRA_U

I think John bought Tim Browns copy when he had it on his auction. Tim did have a scan up, but I didn't bother copying it. Was quite a few years ago now.

vive la difference Pete, hope you are well mate.

Yes I did mate.

NOW SOLD, MANY THANKS Calm down, calm down, it's the re issue. Actually it's the album with the single in it. I bought it so I could record "Cheatin kind" and now it's for sale. It was sealed, I opened it, recorded the single, and that's it. Just want to get my money back, so £30 and I'll pay the postage as long as it's in the UK. Please PM to reserve, thanks.

Did it! My God, that is amazing. One of the all time greats, but it certainly isn't a rare record is it?

Just saw the latest prices on Tim's auction "I never expected that" Johnny Mae Mathews - I Have No Choice - £1,250

Dun't matter how long you've been doing the rounds, if you ain't got taste, you ain't got taste.

Dance scene, that's why I don't go anymore. I can't dance for more than an hour these days, and can't find a venue that plays what I like anyway.

That was fine when there was only one nighter on in the country. Competition is fierce now and people are spoilt for choice.
