  1. they might not know the difference not all dealers are knowledgable despite the aurra some of them give off - but if you believe that is happening tell us who? Presumably someone with a Las Vegas connection?
  2. I believe it was played at the Mecca for a couple of weeks in the 70s......was an ex Yarmouth sound too in the early / mid 90s, think that's where Maxine heard it. It came out twice on the label.....You recovered yet Russ? Stgeve
  3. Perhaps someone thought they were buying THE TRIPPS version which is very good.
  4. But we've (me and others) been banging on about those Frederick Hymes being "2nd issues" for years - a shame a few more people don't listen to what they're told Steve
  5. Feck me - got mine from Clarky for 20 about 3-4 years ago - I know everyone hates to hear that, but why has it got so expensive?
  6. Ebony's version is even better.
  7. Boots havE ink of th "next label in the pile" on them - the labels weren't dry when they placed em one on top of the next. Hi Macca,\hope u r well. Steve
  8. Love train, Armed and extremely dangerous, Hold back the night are ones that always used to get played alongside things like Feel the need in me. Also heard L J Reynolds & Chocolate syrup - the Phil Lowman thingy - Penguin Breakdown - one of the first true northern things I heard at a fair as a kid.
  9. Fugi's version is great - Chicken Sh*t? Their version was 68/9 wasn't it? Have it on a UK 45 somewhere, but it's nowhere near Fugi's.
  10. Hmmm maybe not then - the broadminded modern soul fraternity don't get hung up on these things do they? .....have always played it off the CD, I thought (obviously wrongly) that the 7 and 12 were just kind of off the CD.....Jordi implies they were earlier. Anyway see you in about one week's time! Steve Appreciations - the price on this is going up and up - both sides are great.
  11. Yes err Arthur Whatsisname and Love - actually a good version. Didn't WDV also do more than one version of the song?
  12. Sems a very sensible and fair outcome then.
  13. I am funky, some would say frightningly so, this is just a bit too late for me. It's the vocals y'know.
  14. Heard it now thanks. A bit too funky for me maybe.
  15. Yup, beefed up for national release on Wand which never quite happened. The originals are from 75-76.
  16. Everything on the label is good - so far just would like to hear this one.
  17. Play the CD - I do I mean it's a legit release by the man anyway.
  18. Bought this off Butch for the B side some years ago - do I need to dig out and re-appraise for the funky side?
  19. Isn't it also on a CD? In which case that'll fit in yer hot box!
  20. Why not? If they sniped that amount they must have been prepared to pay for it - surely??? My view is the moment you do a snipe it's effectively out of your hands, you are saying "I'll bid up to this" - not "I'll put in a ridiculous amount I don't expect to pay just to knock everyone else off". I know you want to be fair but I don't think the winning bidder has a leg to stand on really.
  21. No Boba - "We want freedom" is a fabulous crossover side in it's own right and plays as it says on the title, which has been about in very limited quantity for years (Dave Halsall got them from Manny ooh late 80s I'd guess) - maybe 15 copies tops. Manny did a lot of work in Philly (Nurons, Rotations etc)....anyway so that we are all clear are we saying 1) original rotations from Ohio - morphed into group that recorded in Pa. 2) third group from Chicago Hopefully that's put the pieces together?
