    Hi John, No, is it any good? Would that by any chance be number D-703 on the label? I know the Gladiators. Ady.

    A fella I know in Ohio found 4 (think he said 4) mint copies about 2 or 3 years ago. I had one off him, should have took the lot, as he then went & put the rest on ebay & they made a fair bit more from what I remember. Great looking label. Infact, give me a minute & I'll stick up a scan.

    PS I reckon Barb Wire must have done a bit of good round these parts when it came out, I've found 3 copies round the bootsales/market over the last 3 or 4 years.

    When I do commercial type nights you can guarantee someone will come up & say "Can you play some reggae mate?!?" So I always start with the same 4, "Double Barrel" then mix that towards the end into "Nuclear Weapon", then I wack on "Barbwire". Instantly as soon as the lyrics hit the girlie dancers ears you get the smiles & giggles from them, & a little blushing, so then I give it to 'em, "Wet Dream" !

    Damn ! was going to make you an offer mate only kidding. I love London yellow demo's, they got the colour just right, far better than the orange they used in the 50's.

    Hi Benji, It's rare on a UK demo, I've had a couple of issues but not had a demo. Only thing is it's not what you could class as a Northern classic type of record, more of an acquired taste? At least, that's how the British collectors I know would see it, they tend to look for the more obvious classic type sounds. Think it would struggle beyond £200 as things are at the moment though, but hey, try it at £300+ at least you can come down. Regards, pottsy

    Hi Russ, Are you saying someone has released the material then?

    But Pete, I always thought Tamala Lewis was a blue label ?
  11. Ady Potts
    Yeh I thought that Steve, that may be the one that'll cost him (or her)
  12. Ady Potts
    In that case I'm starting to feel sorry for them....only another 200 to 300 discs to go & then we're in prophet dear

    How expensive are those vinyl cutters? just wondering how many records they'll have to sell to recoup their money?
  14. Ady Potts
    It's like I said back on 2nd Oct, you can see the problem that Brad has, he's governed by what the person tells him that is releasing the records to him. He can only relay what he is told. Bet he has to dash to the toilet every time that person walks through the shop door with a little card envelope in their hand. Perhaps he should ban them from the shop on medical grounds, can't be doing him any good ......apart from financially of course

    Me too Mikey, they look real nice when you put them in green sleeves.

    I remember Pat auctioned one many years ago. Slight label damage round the edges where it had been a cover up, think he said it was Richards copy? I got outbid on it anyway, think George won it ? Anyone know where that copy is now? I got a mint one off Shifty many years ago.

    That's right Smudge ! Got it off Kev Fev in a trade, cant remember who I sold it too, but it wasn't Pat. I let it go because I got an unplayed issue down at Tottenham court rd record fair that had come out of Carlin Music in London. When our mutual friend won it off Pats auction he called to tell me. First thing I said was 'has it got Kev Fevs name in the run out?' He burst out laughing, yep ! Did find another white demo since, but that's it, it is a rare record. Great oldie, I love it.

    Pink Teri De, only 5 numbers to get, so you'd think that would be an easy task

    33 years ago (1975) I was on £10 a week. That was a 6 day week, 3 days landscape gardening, 3 days house removals. Sometimes had to do Sunday mornings. That was until my mate Trev came up with a better way of earning a living So Mr.Boddington, you paid too much sir !!
  20. Ady Potts
    Can tell you one label I wish I hadn't started collecting, & that's Cenco ! There's so many numbers on the label, & two thirds of them are total dross ! I started off thinking it was just a mid 60's label, then soon realised it went way back to the late 50's Started out as a blues label. Oh well, only a few more numbers to go, may as well see it through now Great idea for a thread by the way Kev, should be interesting

    That's rich. I pm'd you a number of times....nothing. I email'd you....nothing. Now you come on here wanting something.....I put a post up, bingo ! I get a pm ! Plus this. Wise up Peter. You sell on a regular basis? so does that make it right?
  22. Ady Potts
    hmmm, hello Peter, remember the cracked record you sold me? you said you'd make it right with me, then proceeded to ignore all my emails & pm's. That's not a very good way to carry on mate. We dont do things like that on the soul scene, is that what you do over on the funk forums?
  23. Ady Potts
    Ah, January 1967 then. Hey Paul, was thinking about you the other day, there was a Tamala Lewis on ebay...did you get it mate?
  24. Ady Potts
    Hi John, You do know Tommy, but probably dont realise. He used to help me on my table at the record fair in Norwich, when he was a youngster. Him & Perry used to sit behind the table having deals on semi knowns when he was about 9 years old Hope you've still got all that good ska stuff I used to sell you. Cheers Ady

    Hello Kegsy ! Only just noticed this thread. Hope you're keeping ok mate ! I remember the journey I made up north on the train to do the deal with you on the Bernie Williams very well I had the flu & the temperature was about minus 3 as I stood there on Bradford (?) train station, with Bernie frozen to my right hand. We did the deal in "Pat (me? i'm as fit as a flea on a butchers dog) Bradys" boxing club Tommy is my son, he lives in California, full time (ha! yeh right) record dealer. Regards, Ady
