Yep, and it makes me weep.... That said if I can still pick up once expensive best ballads and mid tempo stuff cheap, them that's good right? I just can't sell them on.... George smith, jimmy helms - your mine you, milt Greyson - old standby, tears - good luck my love, ray and Dave, mellow fellows.... It don't get better than that does it...... Oh and before someone pipes up, robin rice was never as good as George smith, sorry I won't be turned on that.... Laughs.... Mal.c

Must be Manchester, Bright and Sunny here mate... how much for the Sheppards? Mal.c

Hi all, nice original acetate and selection of 45's for sale, some reductions there on allot of these... Joe King - Speak On Up / Whats wrong — Original Promo Acetate - £200 Reduced to £160 This is an original promotional acetate sourced form the Prix label owner Clem Price, and is both the released sides from the Prix label 45. The label address is Harmonic Sound Production 1482 Felix Drive which is a different address to what appears on the released Prix 45. Harmonic Sound Productions was the in house production company, the song was produced by the label owner and written by the artist who was a staff musician.

Clean typed labels and the record plays great with only a couple light visible scuffs, scans below... ---------- Three Jades - Show me the way / Maurci VG++ £45 reduced to £35 (Very collectable tune on a collectable Chicago Label) Impressions - Minstrel & Queen / ABC Paramount Ex £25 dont see this one much, classic Impressions, nice issue..

Kind Regards, Malcolm

thanks guys, you know how it is, we've all looked at allot of original 45's, and every once in a while, you look twice.....and question.. M

thats what I thought, not with standing the Doo Wop scene... I know they have booted allot of 45s in the past...

Lucky bugger, if it had been the end of last week, I'd have snapped this off you.. my monies now spent...

Just got a nice WD of The Impressions - Minstrel and Queen on ABC Paramount through, very happy and all that, but I'm not convinced, no Bell stamp, and the vinyl although thick, just does not look like an original early sixties 45 to me, I may be wrong, does anybody know whether this was booted on the Doo Wop scene? know anything about possible boots on this title.. Its a shame cause it was to replace an Issue I only got a few weeks ago, I hope it does not have to go back, but got it from a USA dealer on eBay, so if it is a boot, what are my options with eBay? do they recognize boots sold as originals? any help appreciated. Malcolm Here's the ebay link from this track https://www.ebay.com/itm/HEAR-IT-Doo-Wop-Promo-45-rpm-The-Impressions-Minstrel-and-Queen-from-1962-/360736364341?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT&nma=true&si=SW%252B6%252B5FpadC%252BQvl%252Faj6%252Fj46QANU%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc and the scan of the 45 below.. WD obviously but no actual words saying Promotional copy... is that right?

I got my spare up first I think on sunday, I normally sell my spare for £50, but it was a better coupling than last year so I rated it at £60... looks like folk saw I'd made that and followed suit, as they always do with buying and selling 45's on here... these 45's are always in demand, we all know that, and if you want a copy on the sunday after 50ish is normally the asking price has been for 3/4 years now.. I still need 6/7 for the full set, and I wouldn't pay over 60/70 for one personally...so there you go, all the new 45's have sold for 60, so its worth that isn't it... Mal.c

yeah, they cocked up the big number, as we have last and this years at 33rd.. when it should be 34th.. Now sold..

and scans of the 45...

Got a spare of the new 100 Club Anniversary Single... £60 inc Post ** SOLD ** The Cavaliers - We Go Together / The Tokays - (Marriage is Only) a State of Mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6snKF56KOs And the Tokay's Unreleased version of a unreleased Kent select 45 by James Carpenter, which is a Dave Hamilton production, Ive pasted below is his version for reference.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trytOapSJUQ Kind regards, Malcolm

I'll stick with me MP3 then..

how much do these go for? M

wasn't the unreleased version by Joey Kingfish - Did My Baby Call, come out on a Soul supply CD? long before the 45 mentioned above, think it was mid 9ts......Groovesville Review 3 m

Such a great Label, and the groups names are allays cool an all... this top 500 business, I never understood it personally, if a tracks good, its good, I have no problem in hearing real big oldies, I love most of them, and stuff like this, i like that too....No where is ever going to play the stuff you have collected at home, so i never expect to hear those tracks, if I do hear one, its a bonus... As for going out, I dont go much these days, But we enjoy places when me and Liza can get out, 100 Club tonight, to be honest we always go for a nice meal before hand, and if the local shops are open we'll do some cloth shopping, so its not just about the niter, its a night away from the kids, and we get let loose on Oxford street, Wardour street and that area at night, and thats a night out for us as well....!!! If your feeling the pinch of 'Do's' just lay off em for a bit, just do one every 3 months say, it will come back... Mal.c Came across this play list on-line last night, from solar radio... I know 6/7 of them but loads of new stuff there.. there is always quality out there when you least expect it.. https://www.raregroovesmodernsoul.com/2011/06/rgms-21st-june-2011/

believe the The Generation - I'm a good woman (BGP) is the first press of this, it appeared on a Kent CD initially... was unreleased until then..

Wow, that looks Ike shifty's old scooter.. Love the records on the side panels.. Mal

Folk may have seen this before, but great Interview on an interesting part of the Motown Story.. One for the Girls me thinks... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgqPlDP4xSM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofYM1-YuJFM Mal.C

Dian Ross & Supremes & The Temptations - Ai'nt No Mountain High Enough - Australian ONLY release - Tamla Motown - Ex £40 is this the version with the Temptations, and didn't that get an LP release in the States? If its really only Aussie I'm interested but I'd need to know its deffo Aussie only.. Malcolm

He's just arrived at my house, says yaw a reel nice bwoke.... And iff uow come ne'er the Ouse hell swet the dwogs on ya.., So that's nice....

she certainly was a Great looking Girl, cant believe you boys haven't mentioned that already.... Mal

They always get something wrong don't they, never can put my finger on it, but coverage on the TV has never portrayed my experience, somehow I think the media will never produce a definitive piece on the Northern scene, there have been parts of some programmes that have come pretty close though, and the best of them for me, was the Old Grey Whistle tests' tony's Empress Ballroom.... rattling Milk bottles, early morning Drizzle and Bud Harper echo'ing out of the front of the building... that is still spine shivering!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJJq42q-r7s maybe Elaine Constantine's film within the context of a good story, will put that all to rights... Love the cushion!!! Mal
