Gettin' To Me is a brilliant record, absolute Northern Soul Anthem, but I never heard of, or read anything from Ben E King on this track or session, has he ever commented on it? Ive probably missed it, but be nice to see what the reaction was from him on it...

I sold this recently, Kick ass Funkler.. serious Wah Wah action, and all that.. the chap that started this thread said PAP, not P&P, are we all speaking about the same label here?

explains all, cheers Mike.. I wonder if anybody has other tracks she cut?

Brilliant stuff...

Recently won a record by a singer called Portia Ogbu, the track entitled 'Now It's Gone' on Copeland Davis's Regalia label. I was told by the seller that Portia Ogbu was in fact Copeland's girlfriend or partner, and having looked a bit online I can find nothing on her bar a mention in the Boca Ratan News circa 1972. Seems she might have been an actress and singer, the article highlights her as a standout in a play that 'lacks cohesion'. Good stuff... anyhow Ive got all excited about this new 45 of mine and the 'Nigerian'? sounding Portia Ogbu. Can anybody confirm the singer and actress are one of the same, and does anybody know anything else about her, know if she cut some more sides with Copeland Davis? https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1291&dat=19720820&id=XfZTAAAAIBAJ&sjid=Bo0DAAAAIBAJ&pg=5820,4652668&hl=en Kind regards, Malcolm Here's a scan of the 45...sorry no sound file, and it isn't on You tube..

Hi all, anybody got: The Sweet & Innocent & The Memphis Mustanges - Cry Love? Kind regards, Malcolm

I got my copy of 'Crackin Up' off my mum, she used to sing into the hoover to it...you cant get better memories of a song than that...

Got any other Aussie 45s Nick?

This is what we want!! nice one Pete...

Fred Hughes - Dont Let me Down / Vee Jay Demo must be mint vinyl and label - Now sorted Kind Regards, Malcolm

.

did you sell this?

Rest in Peace Joe, Sincere condolences to your family and friends.

I agree, lots of valid points in all the above replies, and we may never know if its one certain thing, all we do know is, they seem to be getting costlier again... One thing I have always thought about, is what I loosely term the generation handover, by that I mean the guys that were buying in the sixties, then seventies, and so on are all getting older, and those collections become avaialbe as time marches on... but I think in the next 5 maybe 7/8 years there will be a influx of 45's onto the market that might outstrip demand in terms of there being more records avaialbe... its a fact, the sixties generation are disappearing, or bluntly dying, will that become a big driver in this I think, bigger than a find in the states of a stash or records say.. dunno, what do you all think about that one? mal

Pm'd ya mate Mal

I think that the unpredictability factor had definitely come into it, sellers who would have normally set sale at a certain price, now try their luck as something very inflated...and can we blame them really... I just personally wont buy from them, but there seems to be no shortage of folk out there with pocket fulls of cash to spend on rare and not so rare soul and funk, at silly prices... I agree with Paul above, they are out there if your prepared to look, and at prices to make you smile.... for what its worth, I really do shop about to get stuff at the right price, and I'm prepared to wait it out in most cases...see thats something you get as you get older, these younguns are all biting at the bit with their cash at the ready... only to find the same record half the price a month later... we've all done it! Mal

Cant believe the Truetones hasn't sold, if the faster side dont get ya, the slower flip certainly will... Such a quality record, I cant believe you would sell it Mark..but good luck to you mal;_)
